@GiorgiaMeloni As an American I can only ask why? Why would Italy not let us use an airfield in our action against a terrorist state? Our admiration of Italy and its people is not dulled; but our hopes about you are crushed.
People in Britain keep messaging me.
They want me to post something.
They cannot post it themselves.
Not because they are wrong.

That is not a small thing.
That is what a country looks like when free speech is already gone.
@jimmy_rustlin Gilbert & Sullivan quoting Cicero: 'Let the punishment fit the crime.' In these cases the punishment is in another universe from the definition of the 'crime.' I have considered calling laws like the demonic an exaggeration - I no longer do.
All players who object across the league need to do this. Send the message that they don’t want to be a part of this and will not be paraded around like show ponies for an agenda. Doesn’t make them anti-gay, it means they’re there to play baseball not partake in this.
When a nation does all it can to attack the United States, and we go to war with it ... THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE RESULT IS UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER. Sorry for digital shouting.
