Scheduling conflict has led Drumpf to balk at throwing the Opening Day first pitch for the Washington Nationals, the White House said Tuesday
The Nationals also informed reporters at the team’s pre-Opening Day media event that Drumpf would not participate in the longtime presidential tradition.
The Nationals open at home this year, with their first game taking place against the Miami Marlins at 1 p.m. ET on Monday, April 3.
The tradition of a president throwing out the first pitch dates back to 1910, when then-President William Howard Taft hurled one for the Washington Senators’ opener.
‘Twas the day known as Christmas, and all over Twitter …
… this holiday card had us chuckle and titter.
Advisors and cronies, when Trump wasn’t near …
… all quietly wondered why his wife wasn’t here.
While intern who made this on a mac down the hall …
… was fired because he left Trump’s hand too small.
But honestly folks, and I’m sorry it’s rude …
… if your stocking got coal, blame your vote for this dude.’

No You Can’t : Why I’m Still Crying Over Hillary Clinton’s Loss
Eirene Donohue
I thought I had it together. I thought I was moving on, “getting over it” as the world kept telling me to. She lost, he won. The only thing we can do is keep fighting. We are seeds, we are safety pins, we are stronger together.
The realization hitting me.
~I AM HER~
And here was the root of my pain. This wasn’t just about the disappointment that my candidate lost. Or the fear of what Trump will do to this country. It felt like my very soul hurt and I realized that it was because of what this election said to me as a woman. It said no.
I am Her.
Every woman is, whether they know it or not. Every woman has been held back by, pushed down by, grabbed in the pussy by sexism that cannot, will not, allow a woman to rise higher than a man. The misogyny that pulses through this world, the blood that keeps the dick of American patriarchy hard, it penetrates us from the day we are born. Smile pretty. Be good. Be quiet.
Hillary Clinton stood up for women and when the world slapped her back down, my cheek felt the sting. I know that there is work to be done, battles to fight, toddlers to raise into Nasty Women.

Mainstream media (MSM) is mass media that influences a large number of people and both reflects and shapes prevailing currents of thought. It may be contrasted with alternative media which may contain content with more dissenting thought.

There are less than 50 days left for the general election of this ‘great country‘.
For more than 18 months, we have been subjected to the theatrical antics of an ‘orange citizen‘, a clown of major magnitude who has opened ‘Pandora’s Box‘ and has let loose the ugliest aspects of what has been known as the ‘Ugly American‘.
Now, plenty of proven facts about the major flaws of this candidate are coming out … and I mean faster than a flooded creek.
Could it be ‘too little, too late’ to stop the ‘orange man’?
I sure hope so.
His alternative would lead to terrible consequences that would be felt worldwide.
Anyone who cares about their country, anyone who cares about basic decency will stand up against what Donald Trump suggested today with respect to the 2nd amendment.
He and his surrogates will try to say it was a joke or that he was referring to “get out the vote” efforts.
No thinking person believes that to be true. He was stirring the pot, he was trying to distract from his obvious political shortcomings, he was trying to stir up his base.
Gabby Giffords knows the consequences of inciting violence, we can’t afford to have a President who thinks its ok to say what Donald Trump said today.
~~New Trump response to ‘Second Amendment’ comment~~
(Please, excuse me for subjecting you one more time to this videographic facts. Here’s how his campaign is “spinning” Trump’s comments.)
~~Published on Aug 9, 2016~~
Donald Trump said that if Hillary Clinton becomes president and appoints Supreme Court judges who would seek to erode gun rights, “Second Amendment people” may be able to stop them.
After years of GOP creating fake scandals, here is a real one.
TREAT AS SUCH
Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder (R) has said he didn’t know about an uptick in deadly Legionnaires’ disease around Flint until this year, but newly released emails show a Snyder aide had been warned last March.
Snyder’s office said the agency that has already accepted blame for much of the Flint water crisis dropped the ball on the Legionnaires’ disease issue and nobody told the governor about it. The Michigan Democratic Party has now called on Snyder to resign.
“He’s made the leap formally in his email that the uptick in cases is directly attributable to the river as a drinking water source — this is beyond irresponsible, given that is his department that has failed to do the necessary traceback work to provide any conclusive evidence of of where the outbreak is sourced,” Wurfel wrote.
Rick Snyder’s Office Was Warned Of Deadly Legionnaires Outbreak, Did Nothing
GEORGE ZIMMERMAN RETWEETS PHOTO OF TRAYVON MARTIN’S BODY POSTED BY ADMIRER
Recently, I learned that George Zimmerman decided it would be fun to retweet Trayvon Martin’s dead body. Soulless.
Carla – on this page – suggested that whenever Zimmerman does that …. And he does it a lot because he seems to be a sociopath, the reply should be this.
A picture of the life he took. On his timeline. For all to see.
What he did then … COUPLED WITH WHO HE IS NOW … should be enough for everybody realize this isn’t a hero, this isn’t some guy with any remorse … he’s vile.
Support for this man should be a societal litmus test that you either pass or fail.
I do not wish him harm. I just wish him obscurity.
But until that happens – or until social media companies hold him to some sort of standard – he needs to be checked.
Responding on Friday, September 18, 2015, to a fan on Twitter who called him a “one man army”, George Zimmerman retweeted out a picture of the body of Trayvon Martin as lay in the grass.
Twitter user @SeriousSlav tweeted out the photo, writing, “@TheRealGeorgeZ Z-Man is a one man army”
Since being acquitted by a jury in the slaying of Martin in 2012, Zimmerman’s life has been a series of run-ins with the police and altercations with his ex-wife and girlfriends who have accused him of assaulting them.
Zimmerman’s profile has been reduced lately to trolling people on Twitter and attempting to sell his artwork online.
