I watch a lot of HS and Travel Baseball and here’s what gets evaluated that most players/coaches/understand:

1. Catch Play - how do you treat “getting loose” before a game? Is there meaning to it or are you just throwing to throw….

2. Ground Balls between innings - 7-3-21
7 inn, 3 GBs/inn, 21 reps/game. How do you treat those? How are your throws?

3. On Deck Reps - What are you doing to prepare for your AB? You have three responsibilities. 1. Time the Pitcher, 2. Communicate w/base runners 3. Relay location to hitter. You’re not there to “get loose”

4. Response to Failure - how do you respond to a Strikeout, an error, a bad call, giving up a bomb?

5. Communication - Are you talking between pitches, directing cutoffs, helping teammates w/ pitcher tendencies, etc.

6. Competitiveness In Non Game Situations sprinting on and off the field, backing up bases, prep steps, moving with hitters tendencies, does every pitch matter?

These are the aspects of the game that are often taken for granted but make a huge difference for your evaluation.

Irish couple left speechless after a small-town Alabama restaurant owner quietly picked up their entire tab.

Meanwhile, the same people who spent years sneering that Alabama was nothing but “backward rednecks” just got a masterclass in Southern hospitality. No lectures. No virtue signaling. No social media performance. Just genuine kindness from people the elites love to mock.

Turns out character isn’t measured by ZIP code—it’s measured by actions. And once again, small-town America embarrassed the self-appointed “tolerant” crowd without saying a word.

Since our movement is trending right now, let me introduce myself:

My name is Scott Presler.

I’m an Eagle Scout & son of a retired Navy Captain.

I moved to Pennsylvania in 2024 & launched an organization for the sole purpose of helping to re-elect President Trump.

I’ve spent the last decade of my life registering tens of thousands of voters, electing Republicans to all levels of office, & helping to build up Republican structures from the county & state levels.

I’ve traveled to over 40 states to grow the Republican Party.

For the last 6 months, I’ve met with members of Congress to pass the SAVE America Act — which would require photo voter ID & proof of citizenship to vote.

What I’m advocating for has overwhelming support from the American people.

Yet I was not allowed entry to a dinner last night in Rapid City, South Dakota, because Senate Majority Leader Thune was present.

When they go after me, they are really coming for you.

I will not be bullied, pressured, intimidated & I won’t stop pushing for the country-saving SAVE America Act.

Thank you for having my back — peacefully.

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

“Get the hell outta here.”

This is the attitude that our elected officials have for Republican voters — contempt.

“I’m the assh@le saying you can’t come in.”

If you know anyone in South Dakota, please show them this video.

I never ask you to make things viral.

A Texas man is taking World Cup tourists four-wheeling, dancing, horseback riding, and shopping at Buc-ee's to give them the best American experience.

Drew Haas of Texas is taking tourists to his 30-acre property to help them make the most of their travels.

"We love this lifestyle. We enjoy every second of it. We just wanna, like, soak it in," one tourist said.

Amazing.

God bless Tom Cruise for fighting so hard for cinema. Hollywood is the cultural backbone of Los Angeles. We cannot lose it. GO TO THE MOVIES. It's amazing what a gallon of popcorn, turning off your phone for 2 hours, and enjoying a flick with 100 people does for your soul.

Over 13 years ago CNN covered Obama's $34 million renovation of the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool.

That work is widely blamed for CASUING the ongoing algae issues.

Adjusted for inflation, Obama's project cost nearly $50 million. Trump's renovation comes in at $16 million.

The selective outrage from CNN shows exactly how they cover presidential spending depending on who is in office.

Seattle city council wanted to help "exploited" gig workers.

So they forced delivery apps to pay drivers MORE.

"I wouldn’t assume that prices are going to go up," said one politician.

But prices DID go up.

Elon Musk just proved that ownership in America is a legal fiction.

Musk: “You get taxed on what you earn, you get taxed on what you buy, and you get taxed on what you own.”

Think about what property tax actually means.

You worked for decades. Paid it off in full. The deed is in your name.

Stop paying the government its annual fee. Watch them take it and sell it to someone who will.

You never owned that house. You were leasing it from an entity you never signed a contract with.

Income tax tells the same truth in softer packaging.

The government does not take a portion of your earnings. They decide how much of your own labor you are permitted to keep.

That is not semantics. It is a confession of who the system believes your time belongs to first.

Sales tax buries itself in the receipt. Two people exchange value voluntarily. A third party who contributed nothing takes a cut simply for allowing it to happen.

Now stack all three.

Taxed when you create. Taxed when you spend. Taxed when you hold. Taxed again when you die and try to pass it to your children.

At no point in that cycle does the system recognize your output as yours.

Because money is not an abstraction. It is crystallized human lifespan.

Every dollar taxed is an hour you already lived, already bled for, already gone.

The state is not managing an economy. It is claiming dominion over time you will never get back.

And spending it on systems you never asked for and actively oppose.

The institution extracting all of it faces zero obligation to perform. A contractor who delivers nothing gets fired. A bureaucracy that burns through trillions gets a budget increase the next fiscal year.

SpaceX pays taxes to the agencies that obstruct its launches. Tesla funds the regulators drafting rules to shield its competitors.

The builders are not subsidizing government. They are financing their own friction.

The tax code is 74,000 pages long. Not because the economy demands it. Because the extraction had to be buried in enough complexity that you would stop asking who it was designed to protect.

The past belonged to the people who taxed the world.

The future belongs to the people who build it.
