@IRanMediaco how's that going?

[Chris Armstrong @carmstrong07]

@DougHeye still gross and horrible.

I’ve driven on roads in Thailand, Mexico, Italy, even Florida. The menace that Maryland drivers pose is truly unique

I love how the officer on her left glances down at her rifle and adjusts his position. She’s uncomfortably close to flagging him with an apparently loaded firearm. Not good.

Wouldn't it be great to have Voice of America, Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty right now?

National security tariffs on bathroom vanities

Another $2 trillion dollar plus deficit in a peacetime, full employment economy!

@ARLnowDOTcom fyi, active destruction of 4 old growth, healthy trees today at Pershing and Jackson.

[Megan McArdle @asymmetricinfo]

There is a legit argument over what support we should give Ukraine. But I don’t understand how so many conservatives convinced themselves that Ukraine conmited an unforgivable offense by getting themselves invaded.

[Chris Armstrong @carmstrong07]

@greggnunziata except vibes, self-positioning, and entertainment value. I can count on one hand the number of prominent conservatives in 2012 who still seem conservative at all.

The "and Tariffs alone" part is just twisting the idiotic knife.

Free idea for my friends who are congressional investigations staff: infant onsies with buttons. Who puts 20 buttons on baby clothes? Have they met a baby before? Do they hate new parents? American deserves answers.

@PatrickRuffini Which is why I’m a Reagan Republican.

[Chris Armstrong @carmstrong07]

@DCAttorneyGen Awesome. But maybe start with stopping the murders and carjacking?

[Chris Armstrong @carmstrong07]

@rorycooper only disagreement here is that it might break the dam - with Himes coming out doesn't that give a permission structure for others?

[Chris Armstrong @carmstrong07]

@rachaelmbade and when you have to kill an old or suffering animal, you take it to the grave as a sad and necessary thing that haunts you regardless. You don't boast in your book to show how "real" or "country" you are.

[Chris Armstrong @carmstrong07]

@rachaelmbade and just to be clear - this is not something people do on farms. We put down animals that are dying or suffering. Putting down a puppy? You're just a bad person.

[Chris Armstrong @carmstrong07]

The Executive and Legislative branches are not "co-equal."

[hunter* @y2khunter]

what opinion will you defend like this?

[Chris Armstrong @carmstrong07]

@joshgerstein this is maybe not a great Tweet.

[Chris Armstrong @carmstrong07]

@AjApplegoose @megynkelly it's... really not. Putting down old or sick horses? Yes - shooting a puppy because you're a bad owner and don't want to deal with training or re-homing it? Not a thing that any self-respecting rural person does.
