Donald Trump just called Lauren Boebert to ask her to remove her name from the petition to release the Epstein files.
She does not plan to do so.

Mark Wegner, who absolutely screwed #Phillies ace Cris Sanchez on what should’ve been a strike three call in Game 4 of the NLDS against the #Dodgers, is calling balls and strikes tonight in Game 3 of the #WorldSeries. Good luck, #BlueJays.

So, Ford spent $75m to piss off Trump. He may be unleashing chaos for Ontario renters. He did finally bring HART Hub to #ldnont, though.
Plus a very early look at the 2026 municipal election - is Josh Morgan being re-elected inevitable?

Gonna be honest, when Addison Barger crushed that ball only to have it turn into a double play, I thought a scarring loss was incoming.

With Fluharty throwing as well as he has, Little didn't even need to be on the ALCS roster.
And he throws the biggest inning of the series. Indefensible.
And he throws the biggest inning of the series. Indefensible.
Little has been bad for months. A 5.57 ERA from July 28 onward. 16 walks and 19 hits in 21 innings.
There’s no way he should be in there for the highest leverage situation of the entire season.
