It’s my #MyTwitterAnniversary but I don’t like to call it an X anniversary: - X has inadequate safeguards for misinformation - X blue checks are a fiasco - X new owner and policies scaring away reasonable voices These days I’m spending more time at @dayvander@threads.net

@patrickdavitt I will miss your insightful written articles, radio banter w/ jocular asides, the throwback feeling of radio that mattered, and good solid baseball insight. BTW I once heard a voiceover you must have recorded for a stock photo service. It was hilarious! Enjoy retirement!

3/6 BaseballHQ Radio is up! 'Goodbye, Farewell and Amed,' although Amed Rosario is not mentioned. Available now... Listen online tinyurl.com/hqr03-06, download MP3 at tinyurl.com/hqrDL03-06... Runs 4:35

Sound up! "This is bombshell, after bombshell, after bombshell...The reason this (Jack Smith's filing) is public is because Judge Chutkan denied Donald Trump's motion that he was making opposing this ever being anything we could ever see" -- Andrew Weissman

See how Mark Cuban uses @grok to save X from alarmist propaganda. "When discussing such topics, it's important to critically analyze the claims, consider the complexity of voter behavior, and not reduce immigration's political impact to a single narrative or outcome." - Grok

@AMAZlNGNATURE Certainly there must be better uses for AI.

Touching the void on the most breathtaking ridge of the Dolomites😱

@davidfrum Hilarious that we should need to refute all kinds of correlation/causation blame.

Trump recently alleged that shark attacks are on the rise under Biden. This is not true. In fact, the first year of Trump's presidency was one of the worst of the century for shark attacks.

@betsyhelfand How did he get his uniform pants so dirty with one day in the major leagues?!

Brooks Lee shares a long hug with his mom. His parents and sister weren’t able to make it in time yesterday but saw him play for the first time as a major leaguer today.

@GreenfieldMax18 @CTowersCBS On the other hand the Yankees are #2 of 30 teams in runs scored. Maybe they’ve optimized their hitting for a post-shift, dead ball season.

In the Aaron Boone era the Yankees, this year they have The highest contact% The lowest SwStr% The highest called strike% The highest zone% The third highest GB% The lowest pull% They are making too much contact, and not pulling the ball in the air enough.

July 4th is a celebration of our independence from a king in England. It is a celebration of a declaration of freedom and democracy. This year more than ever, we must remain vigilant to keep it that way.

@_jason_777 Bali Asian restaurant in Duluth!

Our weeklong Minnesota trip is officially planned. Other than downtown MPLS we’re staying in Eagan, Duluth, and Eden Prairie. Need all the restaurant recommendations ya got!

@TheVelvetVoyce @leonelloruberto Amazing record!

@RpsAgainstTrump @TrumpFile This shouldn’t be posted without comment. Because the sane answer to these rhetorical questions is No.

Steve Bannon: “If they steal this election, and they fully intend to steal it, this republic ends. Are you prepared to fight? Are you prepared to give it all? Are you prepared to leave it all on the battlefield?”

@VoteBidenOut Do you have one shred of evidence that the police killed 4 people on January 6, and that you’re not a bot/troll?

Mitch McConnell knows Trump provoked the violent attack on our Capitol and then “watched television happily” as his mob brutally beat police officers and hunted the Vice President. He knows Trump refused for hours to tell his mob to leave and “even then with police officers bleeding…he kept repeating his election lies and praising the criminals.” He knows Trump committed a “disgraceful dereliction of duty” and is a danger to our Republic. Trump and his collaborators will be defeated, and history will remember the shame of people like @LeaderMcConnell who enabled them.

@airbagmoments Such hate is misguided. Look what it has done for this guy: All he proves is that Russia has idiots too.

When I was a child during the height of the Cold War, I feared Russia, but I did not hate them. Now Putin has reversed that. I hate Russia, but I do not fear them.

@medi8this @tribelaw Speaking of the 2nd Amendment, can you imagine the clamor if Trump’s kid on trial for a gun ownership charge?

“It’s hard to argue with 12 ordinary citizens agreeing unanimously to guilt beyond a reasonable doubt on 34 counts. Jurors are everyday people who have been randomly selected, with the defendant and his lawyers fully able to remove for no stated reason 10 whom they don’t like.” salon.com/2024/06/08/bey…

@RepAndyBiggsAZ As a Judiciary committee member you should be more specific: was the rigged part that Trump had an affair with a porn star, that he reimbursed the payoffs to Stormy to hide her story from 2016 election voters, or that he signed false documents to conceal it?

Donald Trump’s trial was rigged from the start.

@DAlperovitch I thought he said it was a “special military operation.” How does negotiation work for those?

Putin: “All wars ultimately end in negotiation. But those negotiations are based on loss or victory in the war. We are striving for victory”

@Bbl_Astrophyscs @BCB_Sara Maybe Lightning rods?

It's pretty bonkers that Wrigley Field is instructing fans to clear the seating bowl due to lightning but apparently being in the bleachers is fine?

I just lost my kidney donor after six months of testing. She has been disqualified less than two weeks before I was supposed to get the surgery. Can I get a retweet and help of finding a type a blood kidney donor? @JoshMankiewicz
