It’s hard to imagine many people having a bigger impact than Dolly Parton. Born in a one-room cabin, she earned 11 Grammys and an Emmy, built a business empire, helped millions of kids learn to read, and — as if that wasn’t enough — helped accelerate the research that led to the Moderna COVID vaccine. What a life. Michelle and I are thinking of Dolly’s family and her many, many fans.
Record numbers of U.S. military service members are leaving the U.S. military due to Trump's "illegal" orders, with many citing the killing of innocent people in boats in the Caribbean, and others citing bombing school girls in Iran.
Trump threatening to destroy the Kennedy Center because he can’t put his name on it is some deeply disturbing “if I can’t have it, no one can” abuser shit.
NEWS: Trump's lawyers just told a federal court that if they don't get their way on renaming and "restoring" the Kennedy Center, they will tear it down and replace it with an outdoor amphitheater. He's holding the Kennedy Center hostage — and it's a preview of what happens to every public institution he can't put his name on.
Dolly Parton's family asked that, in lieu of flowers, fans make a donation to the singer's Imagination Library.

Don Kelly is ejected after the home plate umpire calls a balk on Braxton Ashcraft, scoring the runner on 3rd instead of ending the inning
Where is the balk here???
Ridiculous call to break up a stellar outing...
Somehow a balk is retroactively called after the inning's final out? See for yourself, there was no balk ⬇️
20 months of corruption, bullying, extortion and fraud from this administration. There’s a lot of work to be done come January.
Let’s give Leader Jeffries the democrats to get the work done.

They are playing in our faces.
We should all be asking this question: Why are so many people allowing Trump and his accomplices to get away with the corruption and grift?
