MASN video on 30 years of Oriole Park at Camden Yards

Also a cool 2012 Orioles video, one on the first season of the stadium in 1992, and a video of the 40th anniversary celebration of the 1970 World Series winning team. I went to that game.

Bad tweet by FiveThirtyEight

Every example you cite concerns Republicans. You should say this in your tweet.

Republican hypocrisy on Biden’s student loan plan

They didn’t complain about Trump’s tax cuts or PPP loans they got that were forgiven. Here are a few examples to which I replied.

You didn’t care about the truck driver when you gave tax cuts to rich people.
— Harris Levy (@HarrisL585) August 25, 2022

Your party bribed rich people with the Trump tax cut.
— Harris Levy (@HarrisL585) August 24, 2022

If that’s true, Republicans should like it. Your party is big on helping the wealthy.

Bad New York Times tweet

Zinke lied, he didn’t “misrepresent”. CNN and the Washington Post said he lied but the Times was too cowardly.

Former Trump Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke repeatedly lied to federal investigators regarding conversations he had about granting permits for two Indian tribes' plans to build and operate a New England casino, report from Interior’s inspector general finds https://t.co/fetruFowLe

Covers: We’re An American Band

“We’re An American Band” is a 1973 song by Grand Funk Railroad. Check out the cover by Those Darn Accordions.

Jerry Allison, drummer of Buddy Holly & the Crickets

Jerry Allison, who played drums with Buddy Holly and was a co-writer of two of his signature late-1950s songs, “That’ll Be the Day” and “Peggy Sue,” died on Monday. He was 82. https://t.co/9tVwPMbOb7

55% of Republicans have little or no confidence in the fairness of 2022 elections

Read the poll. It has this alarming statement:

Republicans are far more likely than Democrats to have little or no confidence the elections will be conducted fairly (55% vs. 17%).

I’m sure this means a lot of Trump-cult candidates won’t concede if they lose just like their cult leader.

A majority of registered voters (56%) say the issue of abortion will be very important in their midterm vote, up from 43% in March. Driven mostly by Dems. https://t.co/yByLGKSksf pic.twitter.com/N8qdFxVhCA

The Mothers of Invention live in 1968

I saw them in 1969 and I would say it was similar to the first two clips – mostly instrumental instead of songs.

Barr misrepresented the Mueller report

I would call this lying.

To recap:

– Mueller failed by refusing to state a conclusion
– Barr publicly distorted Mueller’s findings
– DOJ drafted this flimsy, ass-covering memo
– Barr misled a federal court about this bogus memo
– Garland appealed on Barr’s behalf, and lost.

NEW: memo is out explaining Barr’s decision not to prosecute Trump for obstruction revealed by Mueller

No wonder a series of judges have slammed Barr for dishonesty in connection with all this

It’s garbage. Anyone else woulda been prosecuted. Barr should be disciplined. pic.twitter.com/MCUGihoNon

2/ Vol II of the Mueller report detailed numerous episode raising potential obstruction of justice concerns. Barr purported to clear Trump of all of them, but never publicly discussed many of them. Here are some of the most important ones from the report: https://t.co/7ttde6qAkT
— Charlie Savage (@charlie_savage) August 24, 2022

BREAKING: no discussion in memo of Barr telling Special Counsel Mueller that he should make the decision whether Trump obstructed justice. Why? Because new DOJ memo reveals they thought Mueller Report could be read to say he did obstruct! So Barr shd say the opposite.
