🇺🇸 JD Vance is warning Republicans not to blame young people if they become sympathetic to socialism.
“If we don’t get this right, don’t blame young people for being sympathetic to socialism. We’ve got to blame ourselves.”
Vance argued that repeating free market slogans is not enough, telling @willcain:
“You stop socialism by making people’s lives better.”

After careful consideration and reviewing the current eligibility guidelines,
I’m officially declaring myself a @WNBA prospect.
If simply declaring who you are is all that’s required, then I meet every single requirement necessary to compete in the WNBA.
My team and I have carefully examined the WNBA’s eligibility criteria and governing framework surrounding self-identification and inclusion. Based on the current guidelines, I can and am officially declaring my eligibility for the upcoming WNBA draft in April 2027.
I know my presence on the court will stir up strong opinions.
I am definitely not here to mock, make fun of, or disrespect any community or personal choices.
I’m simply asking that the current rules be applied equally to everyone — the rules that represent the very values many WNBA players and coaches have publicly advocated for.
My team and I are prepared to ensure these guidelines are applied equally, consistently, and without exception, and I look forward to the #WNBA honoring its stated principles.
See you at training camp.

The Red Sox overcame five deficits to walk off the White Sox in 13 innings tonight. They swept the series and have won eight in a row. Since June 25, they're 31-5. Every other team is at least seven games behind.
It’s insane how one game can completely change the perception of a player.
Drake Maye in just his second NFL season:
📌 4,300 passing yards
📌 35 TDs, 8 INTs
📌 Led New England to the Super Bowl
📌 Finished one vote shy of MVP
…yet somehow he’s ranked behind Dak Prescott and Justin Herbert?
Make it make sense.
I like trades that give a reality check for how a player is valued, and this qualifies. The injuries have piled up for Marcelo Mayer, and he hasn't been good when healthy. The market has spoken: you can trade him for a reliever.
Medicals have been approved. Deal is being headlined by #RedSox Anthony Eyanson. Still awaiting confirmation on the additional pieces but hearing Valera and Romero’s name a lot. #MoccBomb
🚨BREAKING: Adley Rutschman to the Red Sox
The Red Sox are acquiring 3x All-Star catcher Adley Rutschman from the Orioles, according to @Jared_Carrabis.
The deal is currently in the medical review stage.
Sources: #RedSox and #Mets have discussed a blockbuster which would send #Mets SS Francisco Lindor and SP Clay Holmes to the #RedSox. Something to really keep an eye on. #RedSox have the pieces to get this done. Biggest issue are the salaries at the moment. #MoccBomb
Stephen A. Smith erupts with the American spirit as he fires off this blistering message to the socialist wing of the Democrat Party:
"This ain't Denmark. This ain't Finland. This ain't Sweden. This is the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!"
"You roll over to these borders with the vision and the fantasy and the passion that, 'Yo, here I can achieve anything.'"
"That's what this is about in America!"
"We don't talk about that enough when it comes to the socialists because they're convincing folks that rather than individuals being a problem, rather than lobbyists being a problem, they're trying to convince you America's a problem..."
"...While their asses are over here profiting from the American system."
JD Vance says Republicans helped create the conditions that fueled the rise of socialism in America.
He warns that unless Republicans recognize this, America will elect a socialist president in the future.
“Does the socialism thing scare me? Yes.”
“Is it the wrong solution? Yes.”
“Socialism is the alternative if we don’t have a pathway to give people a sense that the system is not rigged and that the American dream is attainable.”
“We ran the experiment of offshoring all of our industrial jobs, becoming a services and finance economy, and allowing Wall Street to buy every asset of modern life.”
“What has that done?”
“It’s created a generation of kids who are attracted to socialism.”
