I read a couple of those with interest, and then I realized what the gimmick was.

I'm close to blocking that account.

In the past month, a serial child rapist has murdered 100 people in the Caribbean, destroyed the East Wing of the White House, neutralized our Congress, & stolen food from 20% of American children.

We pay him, house him, drive him, fly him, and pay for his bodyguards.

Matthew and Jinar head to the Friendship Dance (the homecoming dance in communication with the school's biggest rival)
You ignored the legal restrictions she was under many times. She never lashed out - she just left.

As she should have.

You're not a hero here.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

The same week we lost a sister to anti-trans policies, were blamed by the government for 42m people losing SNAP, were told we should be abandoned by centrists yet again, & Trump declared Congress null & signaled he'll never leave office, the regime seeks to torture & kill every trans kid in America.

It'll be 29 years at some point this autumn for me (I don't have a specific date).
I'm thinking of Zeppelin singing about ringwraiths and Gollum, but that's not what you asked.

Lawyers in the case before Judge Sara Ellis in Chicago respond today to this DHS statement about Greg Bovino’s use of tear gas:

“The statement is a lie,” they say.

i really resent the continued assertion that there’s so much anger on both sides, as if the causes of the anger are equally legitimate. we’re angry because masked maniacs are violently snatching our family and neighbors off the street, and they’re angry because we’re calling them out for it.
We have a temporary new family member. Jinar's family hosted Matthew in Germany this summer, and this is our turn.

We introduced Jinar to some of St. Louis today, visiting the Old Courthouse, eating BBQ, ascending the Arch, and of course finishing with Ted Drewes.
So far this weekend, I have cheered for the Vikings (lost 37-10), my kid's high school (lost 56-23), and the Golden Gophers (losing 31-0 at the half).

If anyone really needs a team to lose tomorrow, send me $10 by Venmo, and I'll be cheering against your team to help you.

It's not lost on me that the part of the White House we are destroying is the part that has to do with women's history in the White House.
NEW: NBC News confirms that the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden, on the east side of the White House, has been destroyed as part of the demolition of the East Wing.

Over the past week, the president said the DOJ should pay him a quarter billion dollars, bulldozed half the White House to build himself a gaudy ballroom, bragged about murdering civilians in international waters, pardoned some more criminals, directed federal prosecutors to indict his opponents ...
