Dusty Baker ... he played baseball and ran track his senior year. Coaches would coordinate so he could zip over to win the 100 yard dash in his cleats and baseball pants, then head back over to the dugout to wait his turn to hit.

Sorry ... it's "Attia." Notice, CBS, my admission of a mistake. You, 60 Minutes and Norah O'Donnell ought to try it.

Fawning coverage of Dr. Peter Attiah by Nora O'Donnell and @60minutes.bsky.social , but no response since he showed up in the Epstein documents.

Of course, it's a beclowned @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy we're talking about, so zero surprise.

The fact that Jeanine Pirro is spending my tax dollars on this is another reason to have a tax strike.

ATTENTION CITIZENS!

Have you obtained your mandatory "I ❀️ CHARLIE KIRK" facial tattoo?

You have one (1) week to comply with this celebration of Free Speech or else you will be renditioned to one of President Trump's Platinum Level Resort and Reeducation Camps

I'm starting to see some. It's still pretty early, but I agree they need to ramp up.

It's been pointed out that Charlie Munger died in 2023. It's his son, Charlie Jr., who is funding the anti- Prop. 50 ads.

I stand corrected.

But the billionaire argument still applies.

Charles Jr. ... but the billionaire argument still applies.

The ads inundating California against the redistricting initiative note that the majority funder is Charlie Munger, Warren Buffet's longtime partner.

When billionaires are against something, it almost always is worthy of your support.

Yes on Prop. 50.

The whole thing had "Death of Stalin" vibes. So disturbing and yet ... comical at the same time.

And he pins it on poor civics education... as a former high school government teacher, let me just say, he can f*** all the way off. (Protected speech, by the way. First Amendment, if you were wondering. Assuming we still have a First Amendment. )

America Joins the Jackals Ukraine is only the first victim.

About as succinct an indictment of Elon's Stooge as I've ever read. It's not going well ... and it's going to get worse.

Can someone please, using very simple language (maybe pictures?) introduce the current occupant of the White House to David Ricardo?
