This clown doesn’t know what 100%, 200% etc means

Trump brings up tariffs
No one cheers.
What a thing

He didn’t lift people off food stamps. He changed the rules for qualifying thus kicking those people out of the program.

It’s a shame the US hockey team is going along with this clown show

Could he have less energy?

The golden age?
Really?

Nice shot.

Hope you enjoyed your day with Bad Bunny. It was cool to watch (unless you are named Trump).

OK, Super Bowl is over. That means spring training and baseball is in the on deck circle
Batter up

Trump may have to sue AAA next. The AAA state-by-state fuel price guide shows -- let me count them -- ZERO states where gas is $1.99 per gallon. Not even close.

If ever a pass was a prayer, that was it. Wow

Depleted, not defeated.
What a showing by the 49ers in Philly.
Wow.

Now that was one hell of a finish for 49er-Bears. Time expired and Bears QB Caleb Williams still running to see if he could pull out one more miracle. But not this time. 49ers, 42-38.

A quake in the East Bay. Not a big one, but enough to be mildly felt

What a psychopathic rant

Does he plan on punctuating this strung-out sentence?

What the fuck is he yelling about?
He doesn’t even know.

Warriors-Sours As good a November game as you are likely to see. Terrific game and Warrior win

I can't speak for all of California, but in filling out my ballot today, the only vote was up or down on Prop. 50. No other state issues. No other county (Alameda) or city or regional issues.
Just Prop. 50
The easiest vote ever. Here's hoping for Yes to win by a landslide.

Simply spectacular seven games to end the season.
Terrific World Series.

You have to respect the amount of baseball on Bluesky tonight.
Great to see.
And now we see Clayton Kershaw stirring.
Wow
