“Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Do not become bitter or hostile. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. We will find a way to make a way out of no way.”
--Rep. John Lewis
I know it’s become pretty cliche and cringey to talk about at this point but if you’re under like 25 I cannot stress enough how one time Obama wore a tan suit and people spent a week arguing over whether or not it was demeaning to the Oval Office and they were serious about it.
@falconsufferer@ScoutKennedy Also not entirely true. He’s 9th in cap space usage bc of how the deal is structured - which is great value. Cant take total contact and divide by years and see $/yr, contracts aren’t built that clean.
@Alden_Gonzalez This should be easy.
- no to raising minimum salary, that’s dumb
- $125M minimum soft cap, $100M hard cap
- $250M soft cap, $300M hard cap (penalties above at 100% tax or something worse)
- let players get to arb a year earlier
- allow for ‘bird rights’ like NBA
Allow me to be the first to congratulate the MAGA morons, who spent years howling about the $1.7B that Obama returned to Iran.
Your 4D chess master is handing Iran $300B, to open the Strait of Hormuz, that Obama kept open for free.
Brilliant!
Donald Trump ran for office for three reasons:
1) stay out of jail
2) exact revenge on his enemies
3) line his pockets
Everything else he says is bullshit.
Ken Paxton offered a man 1 day in jail for raping a little boy. Today Texas Republicans made him the GOP nominee for US Senate. The Republican Party protects people who rape kids.

Great news! Congress is proposing a bill for public school teachers that will mandate starting base salaries of $60,000, plus a $50,000 signing bonus, overtime pay of 25% of their base salary, and student loan forgiveness of up to $60,000!
Just kidding. That’s the federally mandated compensation package for an ICE agent.
