Baseball has been very good for the Washington Nationals, as they are bestowed with Major League Royalty after 95 years and 15 presidents. Their fans booed POTUS, loved the real baby shark and supported their team until the final fight.

Never in @MLB history has a team ever trailed in 4 elimination games during a single #Postseason and come back to win them all.

The Voting Rights Act of 1965 prohibits voter discrimination based on race, color, or membership in a language minority group.

The National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) of 1993 created new ways to register to vote. It also called for states to keep more accurate voter registration

Believe in You

All journeys have highs and lows.

There are times when I can’t miss, that I am literally and figuratively invincible.

There are days I wonder if I will be any good, or if I have something to offer, am I fooling myself?

However, I am a positive person and that means that to get back on track. I re-rack.

I hope this song inspires you today not give up on anyone including yourself.

We’re vulnerable, unsure, but hopeful, and optimistic. It’s a package deal.

This is not fake news, nor is it fake boos. The Baseball championship game of the World Series was going well until an announcement was made over the intercom that POTUS was there, Although this is sad that Americans are reacting this way in public, it speaks volumes about the state of our political discourse.

Just before the fourth inning started, the video screens carried a salute to our military service members that drew loud cheers throughout the stadium. When the video cut and they announced the Trumps were there, a torrent of boos and heckling.

Although the grey days of winter are upon us once again in NYC and it will soon be fiercely cold and damp with precipitation. I don't let the cold days get me down, instead, I try to get inspired.

Old man winter is arriving this weekend's time change then the shortest day of the year. First of all, I don’t like cold weather. This a huge problem for me. As a native of Habana, we don’t get snow.

Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin is the President and undisputed dictator of Russia since 2012, and his relationship with Trump is epic.

Did anyone notice that Trump’s acknowledgment of Russian cooperation with the U.S. special operations mission that left Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi dead is worrisome? Before thanking “the great intelligence professionals who helped make this very successful journey possible” and the soldiers and sailors, airmen and Marines involved in the operation, Trump expressed gratitude to Russia and then repeated it several times.

Besides announcing the big deal death of al-Baghdadi, POTUS took the time to mention Russia about a dozen times and to promote his book as he would at a photo-op? However, his most serious decision was refusing to notify Congressional leaders but notifying Putin ahead pf time.

Swamp Monster

OPINION - There’s really no exact recipe for success when it comes to longevity and this is certainly true when it applies to The Grand Old Party, also known as the Republicans.

The GOP is sure to pay an extremely heavy price for following and supporting POTUS embracing Russia and by allowing him to not drain but to overflow the swamp.

The bottom line is that the damage is done the Democrats are winning and will ultimately impeach Donald Trump for his high crimes and misdemeanors.
