The connection between the Portland Pickles and the Orioles isn’t as random as it might seem.https://t.co/0lFARScDuE

Here he is in the stands at the 9/23/22 Orioles game – took this off my TV

I wonder what JFK and Bill Clinton talked about

My guess is where to meet women. I think Clinton asked JFK where to meet women in Washington and JFK asked him if there were any hot women in his traveling group. (I’m teasing but it is plausible.)

Ted Cruz is a hypocrite

Senator Cruz voted against this. https://t.co/mht1OgtvwL
— The White House (@WhiteHouse) September 21, 2022

You voted against it, @SenTedCruz, but as you are at this late stage nothing but a congealing fistula of lies and political hackery, this tweet of yours was fully anticipated. As predictable as you are contemptible. https://t.co/CRy318epdu

A civics lesson for @tedcruz – when you vote “NO” on legislation it means… wait for it… you DO NOT SUPPORT the bill, therefore you should not take credit for something you didn’t vote for & support. Thx to the senate Dems who care more about TX priorities than their Senator.

My experience with a bouncer near Yankee Stadium

This was about a dozen years ago. I went to Yankee Stadium with two guys who were younger than me. One guy was then in his late twenties and the other guy was about 40.

We stopped in a bar first. They had a bouncer. The first guy (the one in his twenties) was carded. The second guy was also carded. He certainly looked older than 21 so I assumed they carded everyone.

I took out my ID and showed it to the bouncer. He looked at me with disgust and waved me in. He didn’t say anything but his look was “Why are you showing this to me, old man?”

Did you know there is a Slap Fight championship?

I didn’t know about the Slap Fight championship until I saw this tweet

Republican election deniers could harm 2022 elections

1. Make it harder to vote
2. Allow for endless audits of results
3. Refuse to sign off on election results
4. Sow distrust in results

This is not a drill. Michigan and Arizona are key 2024 swing states among those that are at risk. https://t.co/iN44DjkllV pic.twitter.com/own5L3ZUup

New: Election deniers running for governor & sec of state could soon have the power to open up tons of voting machines to unvetted outsiders, undermining election security.@jhalderm called it "an absolutely terrifying prospect."

For more than a decade, Catherine Engelbrecht, an early election-fraud crusader, has sown doubts about ballots and voting in the U.S. The country's right wing has now turned her into a star. https://t.co/z8l4SZYkFL

From this morning's @playbookdc: According to FiveThirtyEight’s analysis, a majority of House Republicans in the next Congress are likely to be election deniers: “118 election deniers and eight election doubters have at least a 95 percent chance of winning.”
