This is my last Twitter post as Jack Elving. I've backed up and archived my entire account. However @harryhenry6 convinced me not to delete this account. Instead, I've made him custodian and keeper. Either way, I'm off twitter, I've gone to Bluesky and other spaces.
Does he not know what a flamethrower does?
You don't get "wrinkled" by a flamethrower.
Is this the state of education at Eton College? You don't teach people to use the right verbs with the right nouns?
This is what a flamethrower does, by the way:
🚨 NEW: Boris Johnson reportedly threatened to ‘barricade’ himself in No 10 if the police came to arrest him for proroguing Parliament
“They’ll have to wrinkle me out with a flamethrower”

🚨 NEW: In the last few days before her death, the late Queen mischievously said of Boris Johnson who had been replaced by Liz Truss as Prime Minister:
“Well at least I won’t have that idiot organising my funeral now.”
[@ShippersUnbound]
NEW: Queen Elizabeth II thought Boris Johnson "better suited to the stage" than politics and two days before her death, after he resigned, she told a senior courtier in jest: "At least that idiot won't be organising my funeral." 1/ https://t.co/VoXvjib8BN
A free idea: an article on how The Atlantic magazine in particular has been a disastrous & toxic influence on Democratic party elites, since it is the key ideological source for Biden-style resistance liberalism (the attempt to counter 21st century right-wing populism with Cold War liberalism Redux: great power competition, military Keynesianism, unquestioning Zionism, & patriotic piety, suppression of the left alternative)
@dcpetterson You have consistently dodged the original wet. The context of 2016 and 2020 is different. You are Trump like in changing racks and revisiting old grudges. You are your own problem.
Harris spent most of the last month campaigning in swing states. I hope we can finally drop the ridiculous canard that Clinton lost because she didn't visit WE, MI and PA.
No, that wasn't the reason. Harris and Clinton both lost for the same reasons.
