As usual, Dems see where their opponents stand on election night, and then manufacture mail in ballots for their candidates.

Same playbook different year.

We always have the proof, but nothing ever changes.

I kept this story in my pocket for a long time....

In Pittsburgh, September 15th is Roberto Clemente Day.

Every year the whole organization fans out across the city. It's like Christmas. Roberto's family is there, Vera and the boys.

My first year as manager was 2011. We celebrated. We shook hands and moved on.
We didn't win.

19 consecutive losing seasons.

2012 rolls around. Same day, same celebration. We had another losing season, our 20th consecutive.

After the ceremony, Roberto Jr. walked over.

"My mom wants to talk to you."

We went into the dugout. Me, Vera, and her three sons.

She spoke in Spanish. I played four years of winter ball so I understood enough. She wasn't angry, but she was passionate. And I kept hearing Roberto's number come up.

Roberto Jr. translated.

"My mother wants you to know that there cannot be a 21st losing season. That was Roberto's number. It would be a disgrace to his legacy."

She was staring right at me.

Before I could even think about what to say, words came out of my mouth:
"I promise you, Vera. That won't happen."

Roberto Jr. looked at me and said, "You made my mom a promise. I hope you can keep it."

I said, "I hope I can keep it too."

I didn't tell my coaches. I didn't tell the players. I told my wife. That was it.

The next year, 2013, we broke the consecutive seasons losing streak. Ended it at 20.

On Roberto Clemente Day that September, Vera came walking across that field.

And I probably got one of the most meaningful hugs I've ever received in my life.

The players did all the heavy lifting. I just got the hug.

Some promises are worth making before you know if you can keep them.

Mr. President you of all people should stop stoking the flames of racial division. I am Black and I was elected to represent a majority White state house district in deep red Oklahoma. My colleagues in the State House (majority white) chose me to serve as the leader of that body and I was the youngest Speaker of the House in Oklahoma history. I didn’t need a racially gerrymandered district to accomplish any of that. But I’m a Republican, so my story doesn’t exactly fit your narrative.

🔥🚨In Brazil, a man informed flood rescuers that he had to save his four children. However, the rescuers discovered that his “children” were actually his four dogs left behind at home.

It’s heartwarming to see that reunion. Those are his babies too.

A PET scan finds cancer by injecting you with radioactive glucose and watching where it goes.

The tumour lights up like a Christmas tree.

The healthy tissue does not.

The machine that diagnoses your cancer is, mechanically, a sugar detector. The thing it is detecting is the thing the cancer is eating.

Your oncologist will then hand you a leaflet recommending complex carbohydrates as part of a balanced recovery diet.

Read that twice.

A U.S. soldier was arrested for insider trading yesterday. The full force of federal law came down on him swiftly and without hesitation.

Meanwhile, Ilhan Omar allegedly married her own brother to circumvent immigration law, a serious federal matter. She arrived in Congress with little. She now reportedly holds a fortune approaching $30 million, built on a $174,000 annual congressional salary. I subpoenaed her immigration records to get to the truth. Republicans buried them.

And members of Congress insider trade routinely, all while telling you they would vote to end it.

I will not be told this is equal justice under law. It is not.

A nation applying its laws selectively has not upheld the rule of law. It has weaponised it. A people willing to tolerate it have already surrendered something they may not easily recover.

The law must be blind, and it must be applied to everyone the same way.

The question is no longer whether a two-tiered system of justice exists. The question is whether anyone in power has the will to end it.
