This the quintessential story of how sports reflects the state of the world. Thousands of fans have waited for Game 3 their whole lives and now they’re priced out of entering the game and can’t even celebrate outside because one billionaire gets to attend the game for free.

WOW -- Trump crashes out and cuts his interview with Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged

"You're either crooked or you're stupid. Let's call it quits. Because I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her."

"I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads.

The President of the United States is asleep at his desk. Again.

Behind him stand seven grown adults in expensive suits, and not one of them is doing anything about it. One is mid-sentence. Another is gazing sideways with the haunted look of a man whose pension depends on never acknowledging what he can see in his peripheral vision.

The rest of the world is watching, and the rest of the world has noticed something. Americans are terrified of authority. That fear has settled over this administration like a fog, and it turns otherwise functional adults into warm furniture. Nobody moves. Nobody speaks. The paralysis is total.

In any European parliament, in any boardroom from Oslo to Ljubljana, someone would have leaned over by now. Tapped a shoulder. Said, quietly but clearly, that perhaps this isn’t the moment. Somebody would have done something, because the alternative, pretending a sleeping man is running a meeting, would have been too absurd to sustain.

Not here. Here, seven men have collectively decided that the correct professional response to the President losing consciousness in the Oval Office is to carry on as though he were a particularly demanding houseplant.

I stood at this pool, at both monuments and saw both reflections…
He’s a God damn idiot, as are the fools that support him. The “Reflection Pool” wasn’t designed by American architect Henry Bacon a hundred years ago to look like a swimming pool. It’s designed to have a darkened characteristics that has reflective qualities to reflect the monuments.
That way, the Washington Monument is reflective to you when at the Lincoln Memorial, and when at the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial is reflective to you.
It’s designed to enhance the grandeur of monuments, create an illusion of reflection, and inclusion of expansive space of unity.
He’s a tacky vulgar person that vulgarizes everything he touches. America isn’t becoming great, it’s becoming vulgar.

Before the revolution, Cuba was run by the Mafia and a military dictator who routinely kidnapped rural peasants, including children, and strung them up in town squares based on the mere suspicion that they might be aiding the rebels.

Dictator Batista's government troops attacked peasant villages, burned down farmers' homes and destroyed their crops. The army executed a campaigned of bombing the countryside and evacuating whole villages. Anyone who dared to stay behind was labeled a traitor and subject to torture and execution.

All this was happening in the background while rich Americans used Cuba as their playground. The Mob ran the casinos and brothels, drawing movie stars, pop singers and rich businessmen who spent and gambled away their money, which went directly into the pockets of the American Mafia and dictator Fulgencio Batista, who personally raked in millions of dollars a year as his cut of mob activities.

In return, Batista made mobster Meyer Lansky minister of gambling for Cuba and gave him free reign of the island.

Cuba touted itself as the richest economy in the Caribbean in the 1950s, but none of that money went to the peasants, many of whom were literally starving in the countryside.

Meanwhile, notable Americans such as JFK and Sinatra were traveling to the island to take advantage of private orgies set up for them by the mob. The women and girls were provided courtesy of the Mafia, who controlled the human trafficking rings that complimented their gambling empire.

All the while, Batista was allowing Cuba to be used as a hub for international drug smuggling to move heroin into the United States.

Through narcotics trafficking alone, Cuba was more of a threat to the US under Batista than it ever was under Fidel or Raul Castro.

When the Cuban people had finally had enough, they deposed their dictator and chased him and his thugs away. The response of the US to Cuba's revolution was to enact an embargo, attempting to strangle its economy for the past 60+ years.

But despite Cuba having an economy equivalent to that of New Hampshire and a population 3.2% that of the United States, little Marco Rubio is rattling the saber and trying to convince at least a few Americans that Cuba is a threat to the richest nation in the world.

Trump is now illegally blockading the island, preventing oil, food and medicine from reaching its people. The DOJ just indicted Cuba's former president Raul Castro - now 94 - on ridiculous charges and Trump - who's ego is bruised from the debacle in Iran - thinks he has finally found and "enemy" in Cuba small enough to do what he isn't able to do in Iran.

Being an American right now is just waking up and being told how much more money our president is stealing and having to go about our day like normal.

I’m telling you — this motherfucker learned like WEEKS ago, that “by sea” wasn’t “by see.”

And that is fucking INSANE.

Sean Duffy spent 6 months filming a reality show with his family while “Only working occasionally“ as the FAA fell into total disarray

Kash Patel bottled his own brand of Bourbon while denying his serious alcohol problem

Bloody Pete Hegseth took time off from waging war and bombing children in Iran to film a video with Kid Rock using military aircraft

Does everyone in Trump Regime have a side grift? Do they know their time is running out and are determined to monetize their time in the regime using tax payer dollars for their own amusement, enjoyment and to pad their pockets before they are fired?

Grifters all

Even after more than a decade of this gibbering shit, I still find myself gobsmacked at how entirely, thoroughly fucken stupid he is. And incompetent. And corrupt. But mostly stupid.

Insane that a former president is tweeting about college sports while the current president is pledging genocide tonight at 8pm.
