Hypothetical: You’re the owner of an MLB team. I offer to take $0 salary and sign a minor league contract and go to Low A. If the “he sucks now” crowd is right and I get lit up, you cut me, lose $0 and there’s no risk to the big league club. If the “clubhouse cancer” crowd is right, you see it immediately at Low A and cut me. You lose $0 and there’s no risk to the big league club. If there’s massive negative PR, which we already know there won’t be, you just cut me and move on. The story is dead in a couple days, you lose $0, and there’s no risk to the big league club. But, assuming none of those things happen, which they obviously wouldn’t, if you like what you see, you can promote me to AA and re evaluate me there. Then AAA. Then the big leagues. If I earn it, which you’d be 100% in control of deciding. If you don’t think I’m good enough, you lose $0 and there’s no risk to the big league club. You could take away my “antics”. You could take away my social media. You could ask anything of me. If I don’t comply, you cut me, lose $0, and there’s no risk to the big league club. What logical reason is there to not do this? At worst, you cut me and there’s no risk to the big league club. At best, you get a Cy Young winner for $0 who you know can still pitch and could help the big league team if and when you see fit.

Fraud in government programs is absolutely unacceptable. While Republicans have made it clear they're more interested in spectacle than solutions, DFLers worked to make sure no one gets to get away with stealing from Minnesota.

A Georgia couple who terrorized a Black family at a child’s birthday party with Confederate flags, racial slurs, guns, and death threats were sentenced for a hate crime. Joe Torres got 20 years; Kyla Norton got 15..😳🚨

This one turns my stomach. A 13-year-old girl in Hull, out with her friends like any normal kid, crossed paths with an Iranian asylum seeker who’d sneaked into Britain in a dinghy with a mate. She told them outright she was only a kid. Called them paedos to their faces. They didn’t give a toss. They poured three-quarters of a litre of vodka down her with cherry Coke until she was legless. CCTV shows her hardly able to stay upright. Then the pair of them dragged her to a hotel room. He raped her over and over while his mate stood guard outside like the gutless coward he is. The judge said it clear as day: she never stood a chance. Now that little girl is saddled with a lifetime of trauma and nightmares. Human rights lawyers will almost certainly block any deportation, and he’ll probably be out on the streets again long before his nine years are up. How many more of our daughters have to be broken before the Westminster lot stop ignoring whats happening right under our noses and actually protect British children?

Why would you decide to import primitive Somali tribes and encourage them not to assimilate? The only possible explanation is that you’re trying to destroy the country. Includes paid partnerships.
