Vida Blue getting the sign, 1971. He would go on to have a 1.82 ERA over 312 innings with 301 strikeouts to win MVP and Cy Young.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

President Dwight D. Eisenhower was right in 1953:

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

When I look at the recent progressive victories in Colorado and elsewhere, and the successful organizing campaigns sprouting up across the country, I believe we may be on the brink of the political revolution we have been fighting for.

I call it a New Economic Patriotism.

Mean Joe Greene kicks a guy in the nuts and the entire Cleveland Browns roster comes after him. Man, I miss real football.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

An appropriate post from Zelensky on the anniversary of D-Day. Nothing from Trump. Which is appropriate, since Zelensky is a fighter against tyranny, unlike Trump.

[Today in History @TodayinHistory]

Today we remember D-Day, the Allied invasion of Normandy.

With 160,000 troops, it was the largest seaborne invasion in history.

[Alan MacLeod @AlanRMacLeod]

Claudia Sheinbaum has approval ratings of between 70 and 80%, thanks to her progressive policies which have lifted over 8 million people out of poverty.

So of course the @NYTimes finds some reason to attack her.

They hate her because she shows what can be done.

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

Sometimes I think we are broken right now as a country. To heal, we need to find a way to have grace.

If Graham Platner and all of you can find a way to build that redemption through this campaign, this transformation, maybe it can show a way for this country to redeem itself.

[Ro Khanna @RoKhanna]

Outstanding

PabloReports: Ted Cruz called you a parasite and disparaged your work as a bartender.

AOC: It’s not a secret the disdain Ted Cruz has for people who work working-class jobs. It’s not a secret what he thinks of the waitresses, the line cooks—he thinks we’re less than him. He thinks that because he has a Harvard degree and has never scrubbed a table that it makes him better than someone who has actually had to work for a living.

I think it’s funny that he’s been taking a government paycheck for 23 years but has the audacity to criticize someone who has come from a family that had to work their way up and earn their place here.

The human body was not meant to endure 2 trump terms in one lifetime

[Giant Hot Takes @GiantHotTakes]

13-20. When people try to tell you it’s “okay” and to “stop being negative”, don’t listen to them. This organization has had 1 good season in 10 years.

I would love nothing more than to be positive and cheer these guys on. We’ve done it for a DECADE. Something has to change.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

[KNBR @KNBR]

26 years ago today, Barry Bonds blasted the first splash hit at 3rd & King. A majestic shot, accompanied by an all time Kruk & Kuip call.

Enjoy a nice positive cleanse⬇️

[Paul Rees. ex Rucksack. @HannahIamthest1]

A truck loaded with thousands of copies of Roget's Thesaurus spilled its load leaving New York.
Witnesses were stunned, startled, aghast, stupefied, confused, shocked, rattled, paralyzed, dazed, bewildered, surprised, dumbfounded, flabbergasted, confounded, astonished, and numbed.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Holy shit, this is BRILLIANT: This dude breaks down why everyone thinks the whole WHCD event was fake... everything about trump is FAKE.

Best video you'll see today.

[Luiza Jarovsky, PhD @LuizaJarovsky]

Sadly, this is happening everywhere:

"LLM fallacy: a cognitive attribution error in which individuals misinterpret LLM-assisted outputs as evidence of their own independent competence, producing a systematic divergence between perceived and actual capability."

[James Li @5149jamesli]

Florida college student was arrested for making a Netanyahu joke in a Whatsapp group chat.

WTF are we doing here guys?! 😑

[Royal Ambassador @JaokooMoses]

CONFIRMED: The US joint Chiefs of staff Air Force Gen. Dan Caine stormed out of an emergency meeting with Trump. Insiders indicate that Trump wanted to invoke the nuclear codes as a deterrence against Iran but Caine refused and invoked the U.S. Uniform Code of Military Justice.
