βThe liberties of none are safe unless the liberties of all are protected." - Justice William O. Douglas β at Los Angeles, CA
This is dumb. 2020 absolutely counts. Everybody competed and 1 team won. The Dodgers actually played more postseason games in β20 than they did in each of their World Series-winning postseasons in 24 & 25. Also, in hindsight, people forget how trying this was for all.
Was really fun having Joe Davis come by the studio today. What a voice. Also needs to start wearing his rings @PardonMyTake
Letβs all say a Kaddish for the kids who will never live the joy of tossing fastballs from the fifth row toward the bima.
News you can use from @jaydeitcher:
Sunkist Fruit Gems, a colorful staple of synagogue celebrations, discontinued

They should have just asked for @PresKrekorian
The Bari Weiss era is knocking down Pulitzerβs door.
A viral photo of a very in-shape Sean McVay on a boat seems to have made its way around the Rams locker room. Quarterback Matthew Stafford had some thoughts. cbsn.ws/4xVQqlD

Really important piece of legislation from @HenrySternCA and tremendous deep dive from @Yair_Rosenberg on something a lot of us wrestle with.

This country drinks the ocean
From 0% to 80% of the country drinking from the ocean in just 20 years. This is the story!
This was an excellent piece of journalism at the intersection of sports and climate policy. Worth your time. Great job @Sammy_Roth
For the first time, an American pro athlete is speaking out against fossil fuel sponsorships in sports.
I have an exclusive interview with Angels pitcher Brent Suter, who's tired of greenwashing and would much prefer to promote clean energy. Check it out: climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/β¦

Actually, the comments show why we DO in fact need this stuff π€
Bravo to the good faith actors trying to ensure good information rises above the detritus:
@UnrigLA β> tireless corrections
@Elex_Michaelson β> local spotlight on a national stage
@paulmitche11 β> data driven soapbox
@ZacharyDonnini for @VoteHub
@LACountyRRCC for being you
.@NBCLAβs @DarshaPhilips with the goods on yesterdayβs packed mayoral forum. So many great moments of actual conversation, not debate, masterfully led by @alexcoheninla & organized by @gsfvcc and @10thstcomms
Wonder how @LASchoolPolice might feel about this idea.
The real loser of tonightβs @NBCLA mayoral debate? Angelenos. We are not served by this format and our politics will continue to devolve when we reward finger pointing & ad hominem attacks and leave unchallenged how leaders will actually address core priorities.
On baseball and a time in L.A. where the game flourished well before the Dodgers graced the city.

Hell no.
Try this instead. Israel must abandon outdated "greater Israel" ideology, evacuate settlements, support the establishment of a Palestinian state and prosecute violent settlers.
That way we can move towards a better future for Israelis and Palestinians alike.
Opinion: American Jewish groups must abandon outdated two-state advocacy and align with Israeli reality: support settlements, reject a Palestinian state, and discuss Palestinian violence more than settler violence.
