Protesters representing the left-wing climate activist group Climate Defiance attempted to disrupt Wednesday evening’s Congressional baseball game, and then complained that they had been “brutalized” when the Capitol Police — on hand to protect the members of Congress who were playing and watching the game — actually policed the Capitol. Several members of the group jumped over barriers and attempted to “take the field” — though most were tackled and handcuffed before they could even make it past the dirt track — to protest the continued use of fossil fuels and the fact that Chevron had sponsored the annual charity event. When all was said and done, eight arrests were made and all of those involved were directed to exit the venue — with the crowd cheering on the police officers the whole time. But Climate Defiance was not amused, and responded later in a post to X. “We were brutalized tonight — beaten and bruised as we took over the Congressional Baseball Game. Our bodies are bloodied but our spirits are unmoved. We will build a better world. We will rise again. We will prevail. Just you wait,” the post read.

This “demonstration” was the epitome of tactics without a strategy. 3. Given the history surrounding the Congressional baseball game, the use of force was appropriate and justifiable. 4. Grow up. — Jonathan Franks (@jonfranks) June 13, 2024 Several pro-Hamas protesters also attempted to disrupt the game early on, but were escorted out after being drowned out by the crowd chanting, “USA! USA!” Republicans won Wednesday evening’s contest in an absolute rout, 31-11. In the charity game’s history — beginning in 1909 – Republicans have won the most games with 49. The largest margin of victory went to the Democrats, who won 36-4 in 1928.

The Eagles have announced an exciting residency at the Sphere in Las Vegas, featuring eight shows over four weekends from September 20 to October 19. A few months ago, there were reports that this was in the works, and now it has become official. We are all getting older, and this could possibly be the last chance to see what’s left of the Eagles. Just a month ago, I went to see the Rolling Stones for the first time in my life, guided by that same philosophy. I’m glad I did, as it was such a spectacular show.
