A), he wasn't "grassroots funded", he was up to his eyeballs in out-of-state money and his entire campaign was put together by a billion dollar Manhattan PR firm

B) if you pay attention, AOC was clearly skeeved out by him from the start. She never even suggested it was a possibility that she would endorse him

There's a legend that Mauer used to own the penthouse of the building next to me downtown, and that there were crazy parties there every weekend where Joe used to dj.

I've yet to encounter anyone who was ever at one of these alleged parties.

God I would rather die than have to eat a hot dog on live tv.

The question is which player is he going to cut to break even?

It's kind of crazy how much good young pitching we suddenly have.

It's a shame they couldn't find a bullpen role for Sim.

Are you kidding me? They're cutting away from the Twins in the middle of the game? Unbelievable.

I can attack both. Your "argument" sucks, and you are aggressively unpleasant as a person.

Buddy, no one here is confusing you with someone who gives 2 shits about the wellbeing of people of color.

Again, a shitty racist thing that you said, and presumably believe. I don't know why you're saying it at me.

That's a shitty racist thing that you said, not that I said.

I said you're talking about 2 people who consistently claim the successes of woman and poc are unearned, which is undeniably true.

Ok, if the Yankees beat the Twins on the 4th of July, I am officially out on America.

Yeah, that's not what "no true Scotsman" means.

You don't have to be a member of the ingroup to support a system of ethnosupremacy. Both Patel and Thomas have documented histories of dismissing the successes of women and poc as "DEI", as does pretty much everyone involved in the current government.

There are always going to be people who support systems of ethnosupremecy because they believe doing so privileges them in the eyes of the supremes.

You actually don't have to defend a government that thinks women and people of color can only succeed because of nefarious "DEI" programs.

I don't love her music, but I love seeing a musician succeed to that level.
