Always fun to spend Tuesday mornings at 7:05a ET on with my friends ⁦⁩ ⁦⁩⁩. Here is the ⁦⁩ poem I recited, acclaimed as one of the shortest, most ingenious in history. (I didn’t make it up!)

Thank goodness his daughter is okay but this is terrifying for powerless people without connections. The medical industry is broken.

Latin American teams and European teams including Croatia deserve praise this year for being role models to some of the woke teams and players Players including Messi gave witness to their Christian faith during the matches. They celebrated their victories with wife and children

Banned!?! But I own all of these books! Could the person who sold them to me be fined or go to jail? Could I?? Is there an amnesty program or an anonymous buyback program like the one to get guns off the street? Help! I don't want to get in any trouble with the authorities!

Back in 2012 Congressional *Dems* hosted an investigation of the Dept of Homeland Security for violating civil liberties and chilling First Amendment speech for simply engaging in social media/Twitter *monitoring*. Now bc of polarization Dems defend direct DHS/FBI intervention.
Quote Tweet
It is very odd that people (cough, @tedlieu) think the FBI/DHS relationship with Twitter and other platforms is a partisan story. It’s taken place and grown under both Republican and Democratic administrations. This concerns everyone.

“Girlhood is this ultimate expression”. No, my existence as a woman is not an expression. It’s a biological truth, a reality that shouldn’t be trivialized by men mimicking what they think a woman is by simply playing dress up & parodying exaggerated stereotypical mannerisms.

This would’ve been a funny parody skit like 10 years ago 🤣 but it’s no parody

Just astonishing that this org employs Alderton--a woman directly responsible for harming vulnerable SPED kids bc of her unwillingness to open schools. She even refused to let a small % of SPED kids back in for specialized care and teaching. Read about it:

This never gets old.

Oh look! Alexandria PUBLIC School Board Chair Meaghan Alderton enjoyed an anniversary lunch with her husband (a teacher) while her kids were in an in-person PRIVATE school. How fun to keep schools closed in Alexandria while sending your own kids to private school! #hypocrite

Actually, the ridiculous and unscientific Covid shot mandates directly caused this phenomenon.
Quote Tweet
35% of U.S. of parents now oppose mandates that children receive routine immunizations in order to attend school, a survey found. The shift appears to be less about rejecting the shots than a growing endorsement of the so-called parents’ rights movement. nyti.ms/3V4pWu3

Disgusting lies. Masks do nothing! We know that now. And why does the ACLU ignore disabled kid is who cannot mask, like those w/ speech issues, who are deaf and hard of hearing, autistic, or who have sensory processing problems. These kids matter too!
Quote Tweet
Reminder: Peer masking is a reasonable accommodation to ensure kids with disabilities can go to school as safely as anyone else.

Reminder: no it is not. sounds like needs to come back before the judge to get a reminder about what their settlement actually said.
Quote Tweet
The @ACLUVA has been bragging that due to their Virginia lawsuit settlement, parents demanding peers mask around their at-risk child is a reasonable accommodation. But that's not what their settlement says...at all. In fact, it's almost the opposite. 🤔 Let's discuss! 🧵1/13 twitter.com/ACLUVA/status/…

The media really need to reckon with the fact he’s a brazen liar and they’re really trying to avoid addressing it.

Joe Biden says after he was elected VP, he awarded his Uncle Frank with a Purple Heart he earned at the Battle of the Bulge. There is no evidence any of that is true — and Biden's uncle died in 1999, while Biden wasn't elected VP until 2008.

This is the kind of thing fact checkers would have spent a week and 3 press briefings on 4 years ago.
