I cut off my one edgelord friend after his reactions to George Floyd's murder. I told him:
- No racial slurs
- No 'jokes' about the holocaust
- No demeaning my queer friends
And if he ever regrets what he said, and makes a change in his life, he has a place as my friend again.

This is the single greatest political ad I've ever seen.

@smod4real Legitimately the funniest political ad I've ever seen. He's polling ahead of Risch in Twin, Pocatello, and Lewiston (and obviously Boise). Still a long shot, but I honestly wouldn't be all that shocked if he won.

[Matthew J. Brings @MJBrings]

@awmannes @smod4real Just when I thought I would get through the day without Twitter making me laugh a drink out of my nose. Cheers sir.

There’s zero chance he’s gonna win in Idaho as an independent but Todd Achilles might win best campaign ad of the year with this

I beg you, please share about Oleshky. There are children starving here.

russia is cutting off supplies of food, medicine and other basic necessities, while denying humanitarian organisations access and blocking efforts to evacuate civilians. Russian FPV drones are hunting people in the streets.

Who says the Trump administration isn’t creating jobs?

We verify signatures. We track ballots. We reconcile the number issued and returned. We maintain chains of custody. We audit election results.

At the same time, we allow a rancher 60 miles from town to fill out a ballot at the kitchen table instead of losing half a day's work driving to a polling place in #Montana

@smod4real @rkylesmith I think he got through in some way. Ossof and Natalie are two of the top trending terms today. In the game of algorithms, you trend or you die.

@rima_medUA Reminds me of when I was 14-15, in JROTC, doing a mock mas cas drill. A senior cadet thought I was a dummy and jammed a saline needle in my thigh.
I a tarp over me, trying to nap before we got loaded in the C-130. Lesson learned about napping during training!

@jimstewartson Daddy got angry, and all the toadies have a groveling quota to meet.

[Matthew J. Brings @MJBrings]

Literally all he said was "Travelling with Natalie," but all the shills have to pretend this was grievous slander because it made Daddy angry and they have a groveling quota to meet.

[Newt Gingrich @newtgingrich]

Jon Ossoff owes Natalie Harp a personal apology for having smeared her. If a conservative Republican had attacked a liberal Democrat working professional woman the way Ossoff smeared Natalie Harp there would be cries to kick them off the ticket and reject this kind of misogynistic language diminishing and smearing someone who is simply doing their job. But then Ossoff routinely lies as the Jewish leaders in Atlanta pointed out recently and we should accept that he is a profoundly dishonest politician with no sense of honor.

[Matthew J. Brings @MJBrings]

@smod4real @rkylesmith It's what Newsom's PR team has been doing for the last six months, mirroring the self-aggrandizing, ALL CAPS, style of Trump's posts.
Not even satire, really, more like "I know you are but what am I" playground teasing. Which, frankly, really works on narcissists.

[Mike Young @micyoung75]

Worth sitting with the sequence here, since it's almost too clean. Lindell spent six years building a media empire and a legal defense fund around the theory that voting machines steal elections. Minnesota Republicans just used an actual, uncontested voting machine to tell him no, decisively, in a primary he entered with the sitting president's endorsement. He owes money to Dominion and Smartmatic for lying about their machines and still hasn't paid Smartmatic. He financed an audit that triggered an FBI probe into the county he was trying to prove was corrupt. Every mechanism he spent years attacking just worked exactly as designed, on him, in front of everyone.

@Citizen_Xero @travisakers I could see Mark Kelly with Khanna. Or Elissa Slotkin. Khanna's got his Epstein work with Massie, but Kelly and Slotkin have military/intel service plus are from swing states.

[Matthew J. Brings @MJBrings]

@smod4real His defense attorney has been putting on a master class in procedural and evidence law. If this was happening while I was still in law school, we'd be studying it. I'll be interested in whether the state prosecutor will be allowed to introduce the guilty plea in the state trial.

@nafoviking It's remarkable how people react when an account they followed for specific content posts something even slightly different. Even a full time Fella is still a human being.
