Trump on Iranian leaders: "They're gonna make a deal. They did something yesterday that was amazing actually. They gave us a present, and the present arrived today. It was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money. I'm not gonna tell you what that present is but it was very significant prize."

@Megankstack I am shocked — SHOCKED — that Trump would lie about this.
English
I can tell when my fat finger accidentally taps the “for you” instead of “following,” as I am immediately greeted with an inane Elon Musk tweet.
English
@MMThomp @mattyglesias I believe that was the infamous “The worst team money can buy” season, yes?
English
Large swathes of the newspaper used to be dedicated to telling you which shows were going to be on television at which times. There was also an entire magazine about this that people subscribed to.

@pxwhittle @mattyglesias I’d go ALF, Twilight Zone, Mets. And Google tells me Mets won that day, 3-0! They were 19-13 after that win. The rest of the season….did not go as well.

@mattyglesias Wrestling into Twilight Zone into Eastwood movie into baseball. Never forget what was stolen from us.

@hwinkler4real You and Bob Odenkirk! Two of my all-time favorites right there.

What is this guy smiling about?

Hassett: "If the war were to be extended, it wouldn't really disrupt the US economy very much at all. It would hurt consumers, and we'd have to think about what we'd have to do about that, but that's really the last of our concerns right now."
English
Ugh, they had a 3-1 lead when I left to run errands! Nice to see they’re in midseason form.

Final: #Mets 3 - Miami 4

@charlie_savage I really and truly thought living figures couldn’t be depicted in circulating money? I guess we’re just ignoring that too?
English
The Treasury Department is hurtling forward with minting what will now be three different coins with Trump's picture on them -- a $1 that will circulate and two commemorative 24k gold ones nytimes.com/2026/03/19/us/…

@spectatorindex If we’ve “blown Iran off the map,” why does Hegseth want another $200 billion for the war? 🧐
English
BREAKING: Trump says that Iran has been blown off the map

@DarrenJMeenan @WardyNYM This seems a little harsh. Dude was a good Met for a long time. I wish he’d stayed, and I think we’re gonna miss him this year, but I wish him well. No Met has hit more than 2 homers all spring either.
English
Was wondering why @WardyNYM hasn’t been posting any highlight reels 😂😂
Dan Clark@DanClarkSports
Pete Alonso hit two home runs in his first two games with the Orioles this spring. He has not hit one in the 16 games and 51 plate appearances since.

Me when people ask me what I’m doing this weekend:
Headquarters@HQNewsNow
Trump on Iran: "I may have a plan or I may not"
English
@SNYtv He’s not wrong about that 2024 season. What a tremendously fun season. It still stings that we didn’t win the whole thing that year, but holy cow, what a buggy ride.
English
Howie Rose was asked if there is a moment that he is hoping to call this season, his final one in the Mets' radio booth:
"I've got two things on my bucket list - meeting Paul McCartney and/or Ringo Starr and calling the final out of a Mets World Series championship. Time's getting short for that, at least as far as I'm concerned. Paul and Ringo are in their 80s, too, so I've got to hit the gas here. But there's only so much that I can control."
English
Knowing this is Howie’s last season makes us not holding onto Alonso sting even more….. #Mets
English
Like I said before: it’ll be the middle of Trump’s fourth term and these jokers will still be blaming Biden for everything wrong.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
JD Vance: "Look, gas prices are up. And we know they're up, and we know that people are hurting because of it. And we're doing everything we can to ensure they stay lower. This is a temporary blip. Joe Biden ... "

I realize he was preoccupied with the whole Jack-Patty debacle, but you’d think Billy would’ve maybe found the time to shoot Phyllis a quick “hey, we have Jack, do NOT give Victor Chancellor” text, wouldn’t you? #YR

Democrats couldn’t have asked for a better sound bite.
