#OTD in 1974, the great Hank Aaron hit his 714th career home run, tying the mark set by Babe Ruth in 1935. Here’s my painting of him with the Braves in 1956.

Gil Hodges was born #OTD in 1924. Here he's being checked out by a concerned Yogi Berra after fouling a ball off his face during 1955 World Series. In 1972 at age of 47 and manager of NY Mets, he would succumb to a sudden heart attack. Yogi Berra would succeed him as Mets manager

Stoneman Douglas teacher @TVInstructor says Code Red training school received in December was same training they received 11 months earlier, before the shooting "There was virtually no change."

Compare.

GOP members: We shouldn’t subpoena the Mueller report since we have the Barr summary.

Mueller team last night: Barr didn’t accurately summarize our work.

There should be a bipartisan demand for the truth. If not, it looks like GOP members are complicit in a cover up.

Today is my 40th @Mets home opener! Trying to reach some goals: my home opener 45th hot dog, my 35th side of fries, and my 60th slice of pizza. Very attainable. Wish me luck! #LGM

What should we call this? Is it a lie? A delusion? Or something much stranger?

They super didn’t.
91 Billion was the estimated DAMAGE.
Puerto Rico is still WAITING for most of their allocated relief funds, while our president lies to himself and lies to you.

Let me second that. When my wife and I have seen Joe, he has come right over and hugged us both. Because we share a commonality of this horrible tragedy of losing a child, and because he is extraordinarily compassionate and decent.
