calguy's JournalYou've Been Trumped Too
Just finished watching this film I ran across on YouTube. Well worth the watch if you have about an hour and fifteen minutes to kill.
https://m.
Just checked Briebart News and another MAGA site I view occasionally
and they're heads are literally exploding. They're in complete denial, vowing to get revenge for their perceived injustice for trump.
I posted what Neil Katial just said on MSNBC... 34 for 45.
RFK jr on Ari right now
I can't even understand his weird-sounding voice. I wish Ari wouldn't give these nutjobs national exposure like this.
The Caitlin Clark effect: WNBA to begin full-time charter flights for ALL teams
The WNBA plans to commit $50 million over the next two years to provide full-time charter flight service for its teams during the season, commissioner Cathy Engelbert announced Tuesday in a move that addresses years of player safety concerns.
Engelbert said in a meeting with sports editors that the league will launch a charter program "as soon as we can get planes in places." She said it's projected to cost around $25 million per year for the next two seasons.
That means no more long security lines, bodyguards in public spaces, cramped legroom or layovers for the professional athletes who have been lobbying for better travel long before Caitlin Clark's celebrity brought newfound interest to the league.
The WNBA has never been more popular thanks to rookies like Clark, who helped the NCAA reach its best viewership in history for women's basketball, with nearly 19 million fans watching the title game, along with Angel Reese, who went to the Met Gala on Monday night, and Cameron Brink.
WNBA teams also have been moving games against Clark and Indiana to bigger arenas because of increased demand. The defending champion Las Vegas Aces became the first WNBA team to sell out its allotted season tickets in March after leading the league in attendance in 2023.

Parents of Michigan school shooter sentenced to 10 to 15 years for manslaughter
Jennifer and James Crumbley, the parents of Oxford High School mass shooter Ethan Crumbley, were sentenced to 10 to 15 years Tuesday after each was found guilty of four counts of involuntary manslaughter in separate trials earlier this year.
"I can and will offer my deepest and most sincere condolences for your unfathomable losses," Judge Cheryl Matthews said during sentencing.
Matthews said each action or inaction created a ripple effect and said she believes the sentences are "in the best interests of justice and are reasonable and proportionate."
"Parents are not expected to be psychic, but these convictions are not about poor parenting. These convictions confirm repeated acts, or lack of acts, that could have halted an oncoming runaway train -- about repeatedly ignoring things that would make a reasonable person feel the hair on the back of their neck," Matthews said.
"Guidelines in this manner do not capture of the catastrophic impact of the acts or in the action. And in these matters, the guidelines do not take into account the complete lack of insight both defendants have for their behavior to this very day," Matthews said.
The parents have already served 858 days in jail while awaiting trial, which will be deducted from their sentence. They have also been instructed to have no contact with the families of the victims.

Trump Media is 'a scam' and people buying its stock are 'dopes,' Barry Diller says
I mean, its ridiculous, Diller said on CNBCs Squawk Box when asked about Trump Media. The company has no revenue.
Its a scam, just like everything hes ever been involved in is some sort of con, he said of Trump.
A Trump Media spokeswoman, in response to Dillers comments, said, It is unsurprising to see die-hard Trump haters and leftwing flacks blow a gasket now that Truth Social has become a public company that, still today, refuses to suppress political expression that contradicts the narratives they want to enforce.
CNBC has requested comment from a spokesman for Trump, who is the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.
When Trump Media began trading last week with the ticker DJT, its share price rocketed up about 50% to close to $80 before settling down. As of Thursday morning, Trump Media shares were selling for nearly $47.
That gives the company a whopping $6.4 billion market capitalization despite the fact it had just $4.1 million in revenue last year, and its business is focused on the Truth Social app, which has significantly fewer users than major social media platforms.
Trump Media on Monday reported it had net losses of $58 million in 2023.

It's down almost another ten percent at the moment, trading around $41.50 and trending lower.
Joe Biden hasn't targeted a judge's daughter or sold a single Bible. What a LOSER!
Theres one question every patriotic American voter needs to be asking right now: How many $60 Bibles has Joe Biden sold?
Ill tell you how many: zero! The man Im supposed to believe won the 2020 presidential election has not sold a single $60 Bible. How can I know hes a man of faith? By looking at the fact that he goes to church every Sunday? Please.
MY president Donald Trump is a true Christian, and I know that because he proudly stands in front of a camera and encourages people to put down $60 for a possibly-real-leather-bound Bible hes endorsing and getting money from selling. Thats a pure marriage (traditional, of course) of faith and capitalism, the two things that make America great (again). What kind of president DOESN'T sell $60 Bibles?
It baffles me how you liberals can support a man who doesnt sell and occasionally autograph Bibles. You people are sick!
Let me ask you another question about your so-called presidential candidate. Has Biden endangered the life of a single judge's daughter relating to a hush money case that centers around an alleged affair with an adult-film star?
Biden is clearly too old and frail to fleece his supporters. Now, I will ask again: How many judges daughters has Sleepy Joe Biden publicly attacked lately? The answer is none. How can I trust a president who doesn't have the guts to do something abhorrent?
The fundamental differences between these two candidates doesnt stop with Biden being too weak to sell Bibles or put targets on the backs of other peoples children.
How much donor money has old Stumblin Joe used to pay off his legal fees? You guessed it: zilch. What a dope. Trump spent more than $55 million of donor money to pay legal bills last year LIKE A BOSS!

Trump's social media stock sucked in a lot of foolish investors this morning
I have it on my watch list, and it's been fun watching it trade, although I'll never touch it. Shot up to almost $80 at the open, and has been crashing ever since. Trading around $65 as I write this, still up 30% on the day.
For those who were speculating about shorting this stock, this should be a reminder to not do it when a stock fluctuates like this. You may in the end be right and the stock shrinks to a small fraction of what it's trading at right now, but in the meantime, you've accumulated such huge paper losses that your broker will call your margin, forcing you to cover at a huge loss.
Trump Campaign Pleads for One Million Donations as Cash Crunch Looms
(Reuters) - Donald Trump's campaign on Wednesday called for donations from one million of his backers, warning he could lose his New York properties, two days after the former president failed to secure a bond to cover a $454 million judgment in a civil fraud case.
"KEEP YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF OF TRUMP TOWER!," reads a message to supporters from a joint fundraising committee that allocates the money it collects to his campaign and a separate political committee that has been paying Trump's legal bills.
The message, sent by text with prompts for supporters to donate in amounts ranging from $20.24 to $3,300 or a specific amount, accuses James of wanting to seize Trump's properties and portrays her actions as part of a broader effort by Biden and Democrats to harm his reelection campaign.
"So before the day is over, I'm calling on ONE MILLION Pro-Trump patriots to chip in and say: STOP THE WITCH HUNT AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP!" the campaign message said.
On Monday, Trump's lawyers told an appellate court in New York that their client had been rejected by 30 surety companies for a bond to cover the massive civil fraud judgment, inching him closer to the possibility of having his properties seized.
Trump must either pay the sum out of his own pocket or post a bond to stave off the state's seizure while he appeals Justice Arthur Engoron's Feb. 16 judgment against him for misstating property values to dupe lenders and insurers.
