Beginners kit

HR button, computer, watch, helmet, gloves, and jersey. And yeah. The bayleafs are padded.

4. Moral language without mercy becomes unsafe
Truth, when detached from humility, stops guiding and begins to dominate. Shame closes the door to growth, dignity makes change possible. Correction without compassion often hardens the heart rather than ....

@Bill_Owen Again. If I walked to the border with a bike and said "hey, I'm here to ride and take vids," Everyone on the planet would think me nuts. Including you. Timing, timing.

[David Nist 🐝 @davidnist]

Could it be that this guy's lying?
Try that as a woman in Afghanistan.

[David Nist 🐝 @davidnist]

Cute
Then why don't you just verify it's the American taxpayers that will be receiving the benefits?
(See what I did there?)

[Congresswoman Hillary Scholten @RepScholten]

I have a message for President Trump: the money you are withholding from the SNAP program is not yours to withhold. It belongs to the American taxpayers. 

Release the funds now.

Sort of a 'no kidding ' moment, eh?

Cyclists experience more 'near misses' at rush hour, study of 317 hours of commuting shows https://t.co/7Km5gWqxcB

@Bill_Owen Come on... A press crew, approval to be there. A political statement dressed in a bike ride. Even you don't believe the guy.

How you been by the way, Bill?

Long time. Wishing all the best for you and yours.

Naw ..
They'd have to wanna work, first.

Want to get Americans off SNAP? If the minimum wage had kept up with inflation and productivity, it would be $26 an hour, and that alone would lift 23 million workers off food stamps overnight.

[David Nist 🐝 @davidnist]

Let me be clear. The reason was because blue states refused to validate the recipients...
Kinda makes you wonder.

Why not?

[Rep. Pramila Jayapal @RepJayapal]

Let me be very clear: Donald Trump deliberately chose to stop SNAP benefits from flowing to 42 million hungry Americans.

And this is after he and Republicans cut $186 billion from SNAP in their Big Bad Betrayal Bill.

They are simply abandoning hungry American families.

[David Nist 🐝 @davidnist]

Oh, I get it. It's no longer worth my time to be here...

[David Nist 🐝 @davidnist]

How bout you give some of that 40 million you made in stocks the last year to the babies, the senior, the vets?

Or maybe help out I the food kitchens?

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

Donald Trump sure as hell doesn’t care about babies, seniors, and veterans going hungry.

[David Nist 🐝 @davidnist]

It's getting harder and harder to resist. But resist I must...

I'm only here because I was promised free Diet Coke and Pretzels.

[Senator Mazie Hirono @maziehirono]

The headline speaks for itself.

This DOJ reeks of corruption.

[David Nist 🐝 @davidnist]

Dang it intern!

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

Health insurance premiums are spiking.

SNAP food benefits are delayed.

Many federal workers are not getting paid.

So what is President Trump's response?

A lavish Great Gatsby-themed Halloween party inspired by the song "A little party never killed nobody."

It's disgraceful.

"I guess I got #education overnight," said Luke. "My old geography teacher, in my dream."

Taran's face showed knowing.

"It was working out, & I awoke knowing that meant it wouldn't, and was I lucky!"

"At least the world still spins?" said Taran.

You inner clown is showing, Chuck.
It's the left that got us into this mess in the first place.

Can't we all fix it together?

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Donald Trump’s answer over and over to being asked what his plan to fix Americans’ healthcare was?

Pure gibberish.

He has no plan.
