Willie Mays, on politics:
“the Republican way, it takes maybe six months for that money to trickle down to the little guy, whereas with the Democrats, he’s' got it to begin with... I've seen what can happen to people in that six months. That's why I'm a Democrat.”
Cool note earlier from our guy Ethan Cooperson:
Cubs shut out by Red Sox (all-time)
September 5, 1918
(Game 1 of World Series)
Babe Ruth tosses a 1-0 shutout at Comiskey Park
April 27, 2024
5 combine for a 17-0 shutout at Fenway Park
Lawrence Frank calls the inflammation in Kawhi Leonard’s surgically-repaired right knee “tricky.” “When you watch him play, it was very obvious that is not Kawhi Leonard.”
Funniest part is when I told John Magaro about all the YouTubes where people watch and react to the ending of PAST LIVES and he recoiled: “I’m not going down that rabbit hole.” Then 30 minutes later, Teo Yoo was like “Actually I’ve watched a lot of those reaction videos”
“I knew people would make it, like, ‘me vs. Teo,’ but that’s not what the film is about. This is not ‘Twilight,’ this is not Edward and Jacob. If I’m being honest about it, it bothered me that some audience members have turned it into that kind of movie.” https://t.co/rSRPbdavsY
Here's why this is so ridiculous: border encounters surpassed 3,000 a day (average) in 28 out of 38 months in which Title 42 was in effect!
So we have clear empirical evidence that restarting Title 42 (or a similar authority) won't reduce crossings below 3,000 a day. Just won't.
@RealJohnPowers @bunrxm yeah like that is the weakest part of the movie... and even tho B&W was beautifully filmed it didnt work like he wanted lol
