Bad pass from Pat, but Royals had some alligator arms there. Maybe a deflection would have saved it. Hard to say.

TRUMP on HIGH GAS PRICES: We’re making money like we’ve never made before. They’ll say: President Trump is bragging about all the money they're making while people are suffering at the pump. I don’t give a damn. We’re making a freaking fortune.

This is a beautiful interview and such an encapsulation of what heroism is. It’s not Rambo antics. It’s a man choosing to do the necessary and unfathomable, and being honest about the enormous cost.
Bend, Oregon man who shot and killed a shooter at his daughters' school speaks out, praises female teacher for fighting the shooter, allowing him to have a clear shot.
Kaylub Giamanco says he is haunted by the sound of children pleading for their lives.
He also praised the teacher for grabbing the gunman's weapon, allowing him to take a shot at the shooter.
"I want to recognize [the teacher]. She gave me the opportunity to make my shot without losing my life..."
"I swung the door open, and I stepped in, and I fired, and they dropped to the ground... I looked down at the gunman, and he was scrambling for his weapon. And I looked at him, and I shot him 2 more times..."

“Fully funded” sounds reassuring from legislators #moleg—until you learn Missouri lawmakers lowered the formula’s goal in 2016. Nearly 7 in 10 students attend @MOEducation districts whose state formula aid now buys less than in 2016. See your district. Check the sources.

Preemptively suing over results of an election that hasn’t happened yet does not suggest confidence that your preferred candidate is going to win.

As expected, the "Melania Trump saved the people of Oleshky" was just another Trump con job.
The Pope did this, then the White House put out a press release claiming it was them.
🚨 WAIT A MINUTE: Melania Trump is now being credited with brokering a ceasefire in Ukraine by the White House—just one week after Pope Leo personally called Vladimir Putin to push for the SAME THING.
On October 16, Reuters reported that Pope Leo had called Putin to request a ceasefire in the Russian-occupied Ukrainian town of Oleshky to allow desperately needed humanitarian aid and food to reach civilians.
The Kremlin confirmed Putin had agreed to cooperate. The Vatican made clear the initiative came from the Pope himself.
Fast-forward to today.
The White House is now announcing that Melania Trump brokered a ceasefire in Oleshky, claiming SHE initiated discussions with Russian and Ukrainian leadership.
The Associated Press is reporting the White House's account without mentioning the Pope's earlier intervention.
So why is the White House taking credit for an initiative Pope Leo was publicly pursuing a week ago?

Absolutely reprehensible. I met with veterans this morning who told me they're disgusted by this statement from the president.
Our servicemembers put their lives on the line for our country and we must honor our contract to care for them. Threatening to take that away based on the results of an election is un-American.

We are seeing a hunger disaster unrolling before our eyes.
Since the GOP passed the Big Beautiful Bill, 2 million kids have lost food assistance.
These are by far the deepest SNAP cuts in history, and each month, we find out it’s worse than we thought. The worst is yet to come.
In the wake of unprecedented cuts in last year's Republican reconciliation law, SNAP participation & spending have been falling — and the decline is much deeper than the Congressional Budget Office initially projected.

“And this is what I can give you instead of health care or an end to the war in Iran. My fascination with Husted’s ass.”
And he thinks the polls about him are fake…
Trump on Jon Husted: "I'm studying his body. I've never studied the body of a man before. It's not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. But it's never been my thing. But I looked at his ass. I said, 'His ass, shit, it's like a pile of muscle.' Then I looked at his legs and I said, 'Man, his feet are big.'"
