This account is closing. @elonmusk has effectively destroyed this platform. Leaving it for the alt right and oligarchs.

@Rochestergrey @News_8 Or not.

@ElonMuskAOC @thunderjordi My thought is you are a loser.

Such a terrible job Biden is doing. NOT.

@BrotherTy_ Right. Not sure at all how this is good news for Rochester.

@rachbarnhart @MonroeCC This is like where Wegmans promises it will pay for high school workers scholarships with the asterisk that you have to average 22 hours a week but they only schedule you for 21.

[Lee Drake @leedrake]

@News_8 You want to solve this problem ? Stop turning to police and ask the guy who turned east high school from 28 percent graduation rate to over 85. I bet he has some input on the subject. The police have done nothing to stop this and them chasing the kids has gotten more people hurt.

[Lee Drake @leedrake]

@jstevens716 @News_8 It does to them. Because of course it does. It's impossible that the two nice "roommates" next door holding down good day jobs or their quiet officemate is gay because they don't wear rainbow tutus to work. The hate is strong in this lot.

@1hys12 A bunch of stripe sites got hacked. Might want to check your security on the site.

@Damm315er @rachbarnhart I don't trust any television news source. They are in it for the anxiety and engagement not for the information.

[Lee Drake @leedrake]

@ChuckHubbard73 @rachbarnhart News should be based on facts. Not opinion. Facts. Both are biased. Neither are correct in their bias. But a quick check of https://t.co/Hftj9kYU3J will show who is further down the rabbit hole. And it's not the "left" in general. The preponderance of biased media is on the right

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

OUTRAGEOUS: GOP House Speaker Kevin McCarthy wants to institute work requirements for people to receive their Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP benefits in exchange for not crashing the global economy.

"What work requirements do is help people get a job. Every data point shows that it helps people move forward. So...the public wants it, both parties want it...the idea that they want to put us into a default because they will not work with on that is ludicrous."

Reporter: "You're talking about SNAP or which program are you talking about specifically?"

McCarthy: "Look, we're talking about all of the programs."

Americans have worked all of their lives, having their hard-earned money withdrawn from their paychecks, only to be forced to work in order to collect the benefits that are theirs? THAT is ludicrous, and it's a naked betrayal of the American people by the Republican party.

Look at it this way: House Republicans have been drawing a paycheck this entire year but still haven't done any work for Americans.

Drop a 💙 if you oppose having to work in order to collect a Social Security check.

@TracyBethHoeg Well let's see. This unscientific sample of one has been getting respiratory diseases that take me out for 2 weeks at a time every year for the last 60 years. Since I started masking 3 years ago? Not a single one. I will keep masking thanks.

@GeorgeTakei Lol I'm not intimidated. Appalled maybe but not intimidated. Conservative pundits apparently have tiny penises.

[Lee Drake @leedrake]

@evandawson Ok but imagine this for a moment. What if no one HAD to work but only did it from choice. Does me being creative reduce your creativity? No. Same goes for an AI. IF WHAT WE LOVE BECOMES A CHOICE TO DO RATHER THAN A "HAVE TO DO" WE HAVE WON.
