I can't believe I get to say this but I passed the New York Bar Exam. 🙏😮💨 Now maybe I can get some sleep.

I stopped by Renee and Alex’s memorials today and was inspired to see all those who showed up to pay their respects and leave an “I voted” sticker.
We have not forgotten. Accountability is coming.

The big lesson of the Biden years is that you have to prosecute these people. You can’t just move on. You need to make the next generation of grifters and hate mongers scared for their lives.

Tonight, the American people sent a clear message — they want a politics that brings people together rather than divides them, and leaders who offer concrete solutions to the challenges they face.
These results were only possible because outstanding candidates stepped forward in every region of the country — including in areas once considered long shots. They came from different backgrounds and represented a range of political perspectives, but were united by shared values, a belief in public service, and a commitment to putting the people of their districts and states first.
We also owe a debt of gratitude to the thousands of election officials and volunteers from both parties who helped ensure a smooth election and carried out one of the most essential functions of our democracy.
While this administration has another two years in office, our job now is to roll up our sleeves, make changes wherever we have the power to do so, prevent further damage, and lay the groundwork for the future.
How is it that You Can See Everything is at 98% on Rotten Tomatoes and 9.3 on IMDB and it is somehow still underrated
Once again, Nathan Fielder has redefined an entire genre

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.
This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.
Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.
Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.
Abolish ICE.

The President of the United States calling on our enemies to take out an American city is treason.

After sending the National Guard and Marines to occupy California, Donald Trump is now saying our foreign enemies should “take out” Los Angeles and San Diego.
He is deranged and dangerous.
This is the thing Dumpster Diver Stearns & his team of analytics snobs will never understand.
Baseball isn't just numbers on a spreadsheet. Intangibles matter - chemistry, resilience, guys playing for each other and not just their next paycheck. You can't quantify everything.

It’s tough to thrive in NYC, post-up every day, handle media, contribute to the community, set Mets records & be beloved. Would love to have a guy like that. Oh right, we did but you wouldn’t give him 5 yrs so we got these guys who combined didn’t give half the production he did

Barack Obama at his last press briefing with reporters, 2017:
"I have enjoyed working with all of you. That does not, of course, mean that I've enjoyed every story that you have filed, but that's the point of this relationship. You're not supposed to be sycophants. You're supposed to be skeptics. You're supposed to ask me tough questions. You're not supposed to be complimentary, but you're supposed to cast a critical eye on folks who hold enormous power."

Obama: “Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the WH press corps. You’re laughing but this is what’s happening.
It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent right now would have tolerated a behavior like that from me.”
Stearns botched the offseason & the team buried itself with a 12-game losing streak in April. Instead of firing the manager, they waited 2½ months (!!) to make a change. All while playing Jorge Polanco (.431 OPS) at 1B over their homegrown superstar. Yeah, Mets fans can be angry.
Last year this team suffered the worst collapse in MLB history, missing playoffs despite holding the league's best record in mid-June w/ 96% playoff odds
This year they had MLB's highest payroll & the NL’s 3rd worst record
And Gas Can Manaea (5 ERA) is sad we’re not cheering?
The Mets understand the love for Pete Alonso. But you can tell the reaction is starting to irk them a bit.
After the response to his game-tying HR in the 9th tonight, Sean Manaea acknowledged Pete’s greatness and the Mets’ own struggles, but added: “To have that reaction to an opposing player is crazy to me.”
Rocky Reins Jacket retweeted
Know what's "crazy?" This team totally folding early, killing their season before the All-Star break. The mindless, unfathomable offseason moves. Unproductive veterans - like Manaea - no-showing until it's too late. Fan frustration & emotion boiled over this series. Deal with it.
