“The latest White House post is… disgusting & despicable”
War is not a sport, & it’s certainly not a comedy. I’ve been asked how I felt about being included in a post from the White House using NFL hits as some sort of war highlight film. Truthfully, I don’t feel rage, but embarrassment. I’m also saddened for the families whose loved ones are serving this country.
We have lost all integrity, decorum, & character. We aren’t led by a public servant, but a reality star. This is just the latest example of who our leadership is.

Maybe Team USA should have let Aaron Nola (born in Louisiana) and Vinnie Pasquantino (born in Virginia) join the American World Baseball Classic team #WBC
Either way, they've become American Heroes tonight
Bryce Harper came out and said the World Baseball Classic doesn't matter much, then let his team and country down with the game on the line.
Team USA should have left his ass at home #WBC
USA makes it a ballgame, 8-4 now.
Still unlikely to win, but getting 4 runs means if this score holds, Team USA advances in the #WBC if:
Italy wins
OR
Italy scores 6+ runs against Mexico
OR
Mexico scores 7+ runs against Italy
Creates more paths to the World Baseball Classic QF
If the USA loses this game, and then Mexico beats Italy as expected, the tiebreaker is runs allowed.
USA is in SERIOUS danger of losing that tiebreaker and being eliminated from the World Baseball Classic in the Group Stage.
They need to rally and win this game. #WBC
USA gets a run! Now 8-1.
If they can score a few runs, they have a third way in: Mexico scoring a ton vs Italy and getting Italy to 11+ runs allowed (assuming we don't give up more runs here).
But will Mexico keep trying to score with a big lead if it helps USA?
@KnicksMemes It clicked why you said the runs total… win or lose if Italy scores 6 we are in (they could win 6-0 they could lose 12-6) as long as Italy scores 6 we are in
Now 8-0 Italy
If USA doesn't give up another run in this game, Italy needs to score at least 6 runs vs Mexico tomorrow (or <6 but win the game) for the USA to advance in the WBC
If Mexico wins and holds Italy under 6, USA is out of the World Baseball Classic in the Group Stage!
@HQNewsNow You are representing your country. How hard is it to say “I’m here to win a gold medal and bring it back to the greatest country in the world. If you have any questions about that, I’d love to answer them”
US Olympic Team member: What's happening in Minnesota is wrong. There's no shades of gray. We love our country. We're playing for Team USA. What the Olympics means is excellence, respect, friendship. We are playing for the people around the country who show those, share those same values, that compassion, that love, and that respect

🇺🇸Team USA curler Rich Ruohonen:
“I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray. We are playing for the people of Minnesota and the people around the country who show compassion, love, and respect.”
