"Involved in the city's business. The House of Representatives recently voted to not let the city move ahead on its revised criminal code. It is now in the hands of the Senate, bob Cusack, editor in chief of the hill this morning telling WTO P, he does not think the Senate measure will succeed, but he says there may be longer term problems here for the district. 31 Democrats voted with Republicans to overturn the D.C. criminal code, which would change some mandatory minimum sentences and penalties and increase the right for a jury. But it's not going to go anywhere in the Senate. It's democratic held in the Senate, and even if Republicans did have a slight majority, they wouldn't have the numbers to get the votes and overcome a filibuster. So this is something though to watch because in future years, this is a top priority for Republicans and they could go after D.C. laws again, but they're only going to make changes if they have control of The White House and the Senate and House. The revised criminal code would go into effect in October of 2025. D.C. is getting ready to launch a program where residents can get their compost picked up along the curb.

"And i want to go back three weeks ago when they started this Group of games that there were going to be playing within their own division and including the yankees and remember how important i said this was going to be for them and right now i think in the last what seventeen games i think there are seven and ten i believe very mediocre at best below average for shore records are playing good teams. That are playing teams in there. Well no it's more. It's more than that actually. They're not good. And here's i'm going to read you one tweet and this goes to show what i was saying earlier about. If the mets jared walsh's an example so one guy tweets obsessive com. Put the tweet out last night. After the alonzo home runs. How's that for offense blah blah blah blah. Okay fine. it's nothing in the first inning. You dummy not smart one guy responds and there are hundreds if not thousands of responses. But i found this one and to me. This is exactly the problem with this team. Jason farrell on twitter. I'll give him his credit our highest batting averages two sixty to sixty five that's highest batting average hitting mediocre at best. Let's talk again in a week. More out of first place.

Awake because alonzo hit the home run late last night and a couple of a couple of days but he's not doing what you need him to do. And perhaps perhaps we have overrated guys like michael conforto. Perhaps we've overrated guys who i like in jeff mcneil matt great and you look around what they're putting out and trotting out every day up and down. They need someone to hit the baseball and so he's got all this money. He wants to tweet about offense. I suggest he goes and gets some offense okay. So where's you're going to get it from and you know who's available and i guess you'd have to look at some of these teams that obviously and not going to be making the playoffs and some teams that have players that are rising free agency..
