[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

To everyone so eager to cancel someone for a tattoo they got at age 22, a drunk text, a selfie they took in the middle of a mental health crisis:

Show us your laptop.
Show us your iCloud.
Open your entire digital life to your worst enemy. No context. No filter. No explanation.

You won’t.

You won’t because you know what I know. Any one of us, frozen at our worst moment, photographed in our lowest hour, looks like a monster. Looks like a stranger. Looks like someone who deserves to be cast out.

That is not who we are.

My mom and baby sister were killed in a car accident when I was just a kid. Cancer took my brother Beau, my best friend and my rock. I battled alcoholism. I battled addiction. I chose the coward’s way out more times than I can count.

For years I believed the defining chapters of my life were written by tragedy, loss, and shame.

I no longer believe that.

Pain can shape us. Loss can humble us. Failures can leave scars that never fully fade. But none of them have the authority to define us.

And it sure as hell ain’t the critic that counts.

That authority belongs to us alone-the person in the arena.

Every setback presents a choice. Play the victim, or cut the bullshit and take ownership for who we become next.

Life does not determine our character. It reveals it.

Again and again we are asked the same question. When shit happens, what next?

We are not defined by what happened to us. We are not defined by the worst photo, the worst text, the worst tattoo, the worst night. We are defined by the person we choose to become. And by the courage to choose that person, every single day.

So before you reach for the gavel - show us your laptop.

You won’t.

The whole world saw mine. And I am still here. Still becoming. Still choosing. Still standing.

That is the only definition that matters.

@Acyn Mind numbingly stupid! Pretty sure I could actually feel my IQ dropping listening to that

@V_arrell @Shrine259 @TheDalesReport Someone get that man a snickers asap

[Craiger @cgm222]

@V_arrell @LukeNiforatos Don’t go hitting Luke with stats & facts. He won’t like it when you destroy his only BS argument. All he’ll be left with is “eww it’s stinky”

@TheJoeySwoll Apparently she skipped a few too many biology classes 🤷🏼‍♂️

@davegreenidge57 John Fetterman looking like he’s ready to do oil & lube changes on cars of attendees at the WHCD.

@SenBooker You say FINALLY as though you weren’t one of the people holding it up in the first place!

[Craiger @cgm222]

@FmrRepMTG You’re wrong on this one. As a treatment for pain and sleep it is an amazing alternative. It’s a way out of opioid addiction, it’s a possible treatment for veterans and a much less expensive alternative to the norm. The point of schedule 3 is to allow further research. Research!

[Craiger @cgm222]

@SenRandPaul It’s not being “managed successfully.” Altered hemp to include high levels of synthetic THC being sold in gas stations and marketed to kids. Fix that and create a level playing field for hemp AND legal cannabis operators.

[Craiger @cgm222]

@1engine @BMO @TD_Canada Having been with BMO previously, but with @TD_Canada now, I can without a doubt say that you’re now much better off! Much better service level & willingness to work with small businesses in all aspects

[Craiger @cgm222]

@BenVerlander @FlippinBatsPod One of the best to do it, and does it with class!

[Craiger @cgm222]

@AMartinelliWA Overwhelmingly positive message 😂. He couldn’t more ambivalent is he tried there

@RandPaul It’s funny that you believe anyone at Fox fact checks anything. Kind of an oxymoron

[Craiger @cgm222]

@MandalorianGe0 @1991Wolfpack @unusual_whales Agree for the most part. Trudeau omitted investment into equipment and was useless for our military. Looks like we’re starting to reinvest back into all aspects.
