That's a wrap for me covering games for @truebluela.bsky.social in 2025. 10-6 overall.

We had our ups and downs from two different continents. But now it's time for the postseason before we return to the road to complete the circuit of MLB stadiums in 2026.

Donald Trump just got a COVID booster at Walter Reed, per the White House physician.

Let’s be clear this is the same guy who downplayed the virus, mocked masks, and turned lifesaving vaccines into a political wedge that cost hundreds of thousands of lives.

Maybe. Seeing a Seattle v. Toronto LCS would be neat though.

And if that series happened to go seven. Well darn...

When I visited Detroit last year, the Dodgers handled and beat Skubal.

And then lost the next two games on embarrassing meltdowns enabled, in part, by now-Pirates Yohan Ramirez.

a walk-off bunt ... JFC. 🙈

“Illinois governor says we’re provoking actions that are unlawful,” Miller said on CNN. “If I put federal law enforcement and National Guard into a nice sleepy Southern town, is anyone gonna riot?”

Democrats need to go as hard branding protest as patriotism as Republicans are labeling it all insurrection.

Experimenting with a new concept using @queermedieval.bsky.social’s Portland Frog woodcut. Embracing goofiness as protest.
A poster in green ink on off white paper. In the center is a woodcut style illustration of a protester wearing an inflatable frog costume standing up against two ICE agents. The text above and below reads: VIVE LA RIBBITSTANCE

Re-upping this piece I wrote a month ago, which becomes ever more relevant as Trump's tyranny worsens, as masked thugs keep terrorizing immigrants, and as the "Justice" Department keeps inventing charges against political opponents.
I ask: WHY WON'T THE MEDIA SAY TRUMP IS BECOMING A DICTATOR?
Why won’t the media say Trump is becoming a dictator?

That's right. Laugh right at these sweaty losers and double down on the peaceful protests against them.

Charlie Kirk was a terrible person, but his prowess at organizing was astonishing.

Democrats, progressive and moderate, are using tactics from the 1970s.

Republicans spend hundreds of millions on networking, jobs, and outreach every year. Democrats waste their money on obsolete stuff.

Charlie Kirk was a religious extremist and an advocate for mass censorship of academics he hated.

But as a political organizer and creator of opportunities for his comrades, there's much that can be learned from what he did. @matthewboedy.bsky.social discusses on the latest Theory of Change
What Charlie Kirk knew
The slain co-founder of Turning Point was a masterful political organizer—and a religious extremist
