Crazy trivia Q of the day: which city has been birthplace of the most baseball Hall of Famers? It’s not NY, LA, Chicago, Philly or Boston or Baltimore. It doesn’t have a MLB team.

No cheating. Answer tk soon.
To clarify: most for any city in the continental US, aka Lower 48. One more clue: the city not only lacks a MLB team but is in a state that also lacks one.
OK, time's up. If you guessed MOBILE, you win.

The 129th biggest city in the country has been birthplace to the most Hall of Famers: Hank Aaron, Satchel Paige, Billy Williams, Willie McCovey, and Ozzie Smith.

Thanks for playing.

Stunning new stat out of Ohio:

We already knew that Republicans got 12 of OH's 16 US House seats despite winning only 52% of total congressional vote.

But get this: Republicans also managed to hold supermajorities in the Ohio legislature despite LOSING the total state leg vote.
Source: cleveland.com/expo/news/erry…
Seriously, whichever computer program was used by Republicans to gerrymander Ohio back in 2011 deserves a raise, or at least a sheet cake or pat on the head. That's just astonishingly precise work, to hold big majorities even amidst minority of total vote.

It’s time to talk about Ohio.
Yes, Sherrod Brown won reelection, which shows the enduring appeal of his rumpled brand of economic populism. (Though his flawed opponent got almost 48% despite getting relatively little party/outside backing.)
But overall 2018 was brutal for OH Dems. They lost every other statewide race—guv, AG, etc. They didn’t pick up 1 US House seat—they hold 4/16. And they netted only four state reps and LOST a state sen seat in ex-Dem stronghold of Mahoning Valley, preserving GOP supermajorities.

Meanwhile, some craziness in another part of the world: the stats in this WSJ story late last week on the homicide surge in Latin America are insane. It's gotta be one of the most under-covered stories on the planet now, given the life-and-death stakes. wsj.com/articles/400-m…
"With just 8% of the world’s population, Latin America accounts for roughly one third of global murders. Nearly one in every four murders around the world takes place in just four countries: Brazil, Venezuela, Mexico and Colombia."
"Last year, a record 63,808 people were murdered in Brazil. Mexico also set a record at 31,174, with murders so far this year up another 20%."

1. #QAnon links to a parody @NSAGov page on NSA's Utah Data Center. I hadn't previously considered "coincidence" between #Q's support of NSA (vs. #Clowns) vs Huber also being in Utah. Convenient might one think? nsa.gov1.info/utah-data-cent…
2. #QAnon responds to an anon who posted a Forbes piece about the Utah Data Center parody site indicating that it is actually highly informative:

"Information comes in many forms."

3. #QAnon: #Clown WaPo reported Gallup poll yesterday, coupled with their own poll on 2K Floridians, 8/8-21, both, we are to believe, that #Q and @POTUS are "unpopular". Today same #Clowns have their own poll saying same about @POTUS for the parrots.
What're the odds of that?

1. Shortly after #QAnon'd mentioned "Xbox chat logs" being used by #DeepState, Xbox Live went down. Purging chat logs? Don't realize we already "have it all" anyways? #Q

2. If #QAnon were a "theory" like #MockingbirdMedia tries to tell us, why would Xbox freak out? #Q
3. #QAnon: If Snowden were trying to seek asylum via travel to UIO, Quito, Equador from Hong Kong International Airport, why would he route through Russia? Was #Russia not the original destination all along, so #Clowns could hurt US-Russia relationship? #Q

My #Q Pre-Independence Day Thread, July 3, 2018:
After some research last night, I think I made an important connection to a theory that immediately gave me chills and lined up with past #Qanon posts.

I think liberals and MSM have been officially caught in the TRAP
(1) Today, #Q asks - "What happened to Stormy?"

Was the calm before the "storm" always planned? I think so.

#ClamBeforeTheStorm
(2) Now liberal media is salivating at what can come from mr. cohen. However, I believe it's going to end up resulting in something they weren't expecting.

PROOF?

#MAGA @PrisonPlanet
The WEIGHT of this is that back in Sept 2016 when the first image appeared on a meme board (may be earlier, will look into that), 'brumdcrumbs', #Q drops on 4Chan and 8Chan were unknown to the average public. So .. hmmmm .. sounds like LATER Q drops were planned?
Yeah .. just a plain 'ole RANDOM image of @realDonaldTrump looking at BREAD back in September 2016 (when 4Chan/8Chan boards and 'crumbs' were not popular with anyone). No connection at all to the current #Q drops called 'breadcrumbs'. Nope .. no connection at all.
