While I am terrified of the dumb garbage human being who will be president, I am also terrified of the smart garbage human beings he’ll surround himself with.

@gretch_brown I get that speech from my employer’s insurance broker every year. So lame.

One learns how much baseball knowledge one has internalized when one has to explain the game to a not-yet-three-year old.

A century ago, Germany’s democracy was hijacked by a bombastic and charismatic tyrant — and in this five-minute video, you’ll learn how he did it. Why did I produce this? Because I believe that history is speaking to us, and all too often, those who refuse to learn from it are doomed to repeat it.

As you watch, imagine filling out a Bingo card filled with Germany 1933/USA 2024 parallels: big rallies, rage-filled and hateful rhetoric, simple answers promising quick and easy solutions to complicated problems, empty promises of a great-again future, scapegoating outsiders, and political enemies silenced on day one. And notice the caring wisdom and concern from my German friends as they share these lessons from their dark history.

It’s hard to understand how Trump could, on the eve of a tight election, paint a picture of Liz Cheney before a firing squad by actually saying, “Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? And let’s see how she feels about it when the guns are trained on her face.” You can’t get into the mind of a dictator with an insatiable appetite for power — but you can recognize the playbook they all seem to follow.

Just watch this clip. It’s excerpted from my hourlong public television special “The Story of Fascism in Europe,” which is streaming free (and ad-free) at https://t.co/YA10kVH0V8. If you care about our democracy and love our country, it’s hard to stop watching.

When I produced this in 2018, I hoped this day would never come in our country. But November 5th is upon us. Please share this with anyone in your life who might need a reminder that the stakes are high...and this is very real.

[Kirsten Brown @kbrobaseball]

Cool.

Now what am I supposed to do with myself?

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Congratulations @Dodgers!

Such a bummer. He had so much promise. I wish him nothing but the best.

[Aaron Gleeman @AaronGleeman]

Injuries suck.

Alex Kirilloff was one of the best #MNTwins prospects in decades. Extremely talented hitter with huge upside.

But his first three MLB seasons ended with wrist/shoulder surgeries, and his fourth was ended by a back injury.

Retiring before his 27th birthday. Damn.

[Kirsten Brown @kbrobaseball]

@TCAnelle I mean, sure. It’s my birthday. 😉

[Kirsten Brown @kbrobaseball]

Cool.

Now what am I supposed to do with myself?
