The Republican nominee and candidate for president in 2024 just pretended to give a bj in front of a crowd of people in Wisconsin as a final message to the American people prior to Tuesday’s election. And thisšŸ‘‡šŸ‘‡šŸ‘‡

All I know is this had better be the biggest mainstream story tonight or the media ain’t shit.

He missed that door handle not once. Not twice. But three fkng times. And nearly did a header into the door of the garbage truck. Had to put his left arm up to brace himself. Right leg doesn’t work. Dragging it around everywhere.

Huge congratulations to @DrPhil for joining the hate rally today. I can’t imagine what lies you have to tell yourself to stand on stage with that kind of racism. šŸ‘‡

Trump is about to reenact this at MSG:

Months before the start of WW2, 22,000 Americans gathered in New York’s Madison Square Garden to rally in support of Nazism.

A NIGHT AT THE GARDEN (2017)

Nominated for the Best Documentary Short Oscar. In 1939, a Nazi rally took place at MSG. It was organized by the German American Bund, which was a pro-Hitler org in the United States before WWII. The group promoted Nazi propaganda in the United States, combining Nazi imagery with American patriotic imagery.

THIS IS IT!

His wealth couldn’t protect him from being roughed up on the football field.

ā€œI didn’t like being tackled by someone who’s been lifting weights.ā€

ā€œTough neighborhoodā€. LOL.

Softest American president in history. He has no concept of team sports. None. So he quit football and played golf.

Competition with a scoreboard and rules terrifies him. No wonder he calls everything rigged. Dude got tackled once and bailed. Hahahahahahaha

Charlie Chaplin’s final speech in ā€˜The Great Dictator’ — 1940.

Some of his friends tried to talk him out of the speech. One said the speech would cost him a million dollars at the box office.

Chaplin replied, ā€œWell, I don't care if it's five million."
Fwiw — The Great Dictator was Chaplin’s first speaking role and his most commercially successful film.

Wish I could say I’m surprised that JD Vance would lie about things to draw attention to other things.

He wrote a book on people in Appalachia — Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia, etc — largely pertaining to the opioid epidemic.

Hundreds of thousands of people have died from the opioid epidemic started by Purdue Pharma — who lied about the addictive nature of OxyContin. Purdue Pharma is still trying to settle the case for EIGHT BILLION DOLLARS. To date, no one from Purdue Pharma has gone to prison. But millions of Americans have been impacted by this epidemic. Everyone knows someone strung out on opioids or has lost someone to the opioid epidemic.

Vance’ book was successful and became a movie.

I was one of the people negatively impacted by the opioid epidemic. OxyContin took me on a 14-year hellish journey. I was never a drinker or drug user prior to OxyContin. OxyContin was a very new drug in 2000 when I had my 7th surgery in 3 years. Doctor gave it to me and I fell in love with it in two days. The greatest thing I’ve ever felt.

I wish I could say I’m surprised he wouldn’t admit when he’s wrong. That he would lie about Haitians or anyone else to advance his racist/white supremacy agenda. But I’m not. In the least.

Vance wrote about the horrors of the opioid epidemic. He started an anti-drug charity. He stated that it was a vehicle for ā€œhelping solve the scourge of opioid addiction that he had lamented in ā€œHillbilly Elegy,ā€ his bestselling memoir. — BUT promptly enlisted a doctor echoing Big Pharma.

In fact, THE PERSON HE BROUGHT ABOARD was Dr. Sally Satel — who was employed by Purdue Pharma — the manufacturer of OxyContin. A gigantic betrayal to all addicts or families with addicts. Huge.

And then Vance shuttered the nonprofit last year and its foundation in May, shortly after clinching the state’s Republican nomination for U.S. Senate.

ā€œA person forms a charity presumably to do good things, so when it doesn’t, for whatever reason, that really is a betrayal,ā€ said Asher, an emeritus professor of political science at Ohio State University. ā€œThat’s something voters can get their arms around.ā€

JD Vance is scum. He doesn’t give one shit about any of us. Peter Thiel and Donald Trump have him by the balls.

Don’t take my word for it. Do your own research. Here’s a little help to get you started.

There’s a literal manhunt happening right now in Rep Thomas Massie’s state of Kentucky (also my home state). School has been cancelled all week long in eastern KY because a man shot up I-75 a week ago with an AR-15 then disappeared into the woods.

This is dumb. šŸ‘‡

Not in the book:

This is Clemette Haskins. We grew up together. My dad and her dad played at Western Kentucky University together (and went to the Final Four). Our parents are best friends. Wayne and Laura — and Clem and Yvette.

Clemette was ā€œMs. Basketballā€ in Kentucky in 1983. I was ā€œMr. Basketballā€ in 1986. She was three grades ahead of me but just two years older.

SHE KICKED MY FKNG ASS IN BASKETBALL our entire childhood and it wasn’t until I was about 16 years old before I could beat Clemette 1-on-1.

She attended Western and was a 3 time NCAA All-American (1984, 86, and 87). She took WKU to the Final Four.

We’re both in the Kentucky HS Basketball Hall of Fame.

We ended up dating a little bit when we got older but it was always weird because we were really just best buddies. We attended the Kentucky State Tournament together every single year together as kids. Our parents would take us out of school for the week and Clemette and I would run around Rupp Arena, watching games, eating ice cream, and just being kids. We were OBSESSED with hoops.

But I always felt bad for Clemette because there was no way for her to play basketball here in the states following college. She was like Nancy Lieberman, Cheryl Miller, Doris Burke, etc. — GREAT women’s players with no professional league! It’s always been bullshit.

But now the women are getting their due. And as a dad of three girls - I’m beyond here for it.

Women of that generation were deprived of all of the experiences grown men had in team sports. The bus rides, the plane rides, the camaraderie. Women were actually discouraged from playing sports many times and in many parts of the country because it wasn’t ā€œlady likeā€. Lmfao.

It’s taken forever but I couldn’t be happier for all of the girls and women who are reaping the benefits of the groundwork pioneers like my bestie Clemette Haskins laid down for them.šŸ€ā¤ļø simonandschuster.com/books/Its-Hard…Image

Many times there weren’t even girls teams or leagues. Girls played with the boys if they wanted to play.

Also, sidebar - boys and girls high school games were usually played on the same night. But they only played the national anthem before the boys varsity games.

Dan Zaksheske has 3k followers. He asked Dawn Staley a hypothetical about trans athletes at the women’s final four.

Beth Hoole has 5k followers. A little girl broke down crying after getting an autograph from one of the players at the women’s final four. She caught the moment and posted it.

You can see Dan’s posts on the ā€œFor Youā€ tab. It currently has 14-million views.

You cannot see Beth Hoole’s posts unless you follow her. It currently has just 695k views.

Both posts were made at roughly the same time earlier today.

One of my favorite clips.

He did his best to make it through the coaches show.

Rest in peace, Bobby Knight… Coach Knight recruited me. When I told him I had narrowed my schools to 5 (over the phone) he could sense Indiana wasn’t one of the five — and he hung up on me. Lol.

We (UK) played them a year later and he apologized for it.

I coached his son Patrick at 5-Star that summer. We remained friends. RIP, Coach.
