[Michelle Obama @MichelleObama]

Happy birthday, @BarackObama! 65 never looked better. Every day, you make me a better person, and I’m thankful for all the ways you show up for our family and our country. Love you. ❤️

[Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 @FmrRepMTG]

Explainer video about the Congressional calendar - how Congress works, how they don’t really work, and why nothing works!

[Michelle Obama @MichelleObama]

It was such a joy getting to spend time with Joe and Jill, George and Laura, and Bill and Hillary last week. Barack and I will always be grateful for your constant friendship and support of our family over the years. 

(And George, thanks for the mints!)

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

@_emergent_ Sympathetic? I actually look pretty good for a crack addict. Give me some credit dude.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I’ve taken a lot of hits, and I’ve deserved some of them. I beat myself up over them more than you can imagine.

But the grace people have shown me here is truly humbling.

Some of the kindest words have come from the people you’d least expect.

And for that I am so grateful.

This isn’t about me. It’s about every person in recovery who shows up and tries again.

And to everyone still in the fight tonight: you are not alone, I see you.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

Things most Americans agree on:

Groceries cost too much.

Tariffs suck and make no sense.

Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.

The debt is a mess.

The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.

Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.

Americans are exhausted.

AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.

Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.

Canadians are super fucking cool.

Mexicans are chill.

Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.

Good neighbors are a blessing.

Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.

We all question, are we alone in the universe?

We all fuck up along the way.

Epstein didn’t hang himself.

The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.

The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!

Things we’re told to fight about:

Me.
Laptop.
Vaccines.
Transgenders in sports.
Pronouns.

That’s the joke.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

As President, I would read 10 letters a day sent to me by ordinary Americans. At the Obama Presidential Center, we’ll have some of the letters I read — and responded to — every night. I still get emotional reading them, and it’s one of my favorite exhibits.

@ColNicholson Aren't Bob Beretta @wojespn and @ex_espn_chris all golfing with Mark Schmidt today at Golf with the Bonnies?

@ColNicholson When Josh Allen stops choking in the playoffs.

[Evan Applebaum @EvanApplebaum2]

UMass Lowell is hiring former St. Bonaventure assistant Nick Schmidt onto their staff, I’m told.

The son of longtime Bonnies head coach Mark Schmidt also had previous stops at Bryant and Putnam Science.

[Thomas Massie for Congress @MassieforKY]

Join me tomorrow night for my victory party!

To everyone who voted for me, donated to my campaign, volunteered your time, or kept me in your prayers, this night is for us to celebrate together.

The event begins at 6 PM at the Marriott Cincinnati Airport. Vote, then come see me!

Two words: patents pending. This is not theoretical. This is absolute. If you want to tokenize, issue, trade, settle, self-custody, make payments in stablecoins, atomically swap stablecoins (or any crypto) for real-world data in any form, from an L1, it’ll have to be rsquared.

[Rob Rosenthal @RobRosenthalish]

“The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is rapidly fadin'
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin’”

[Fastbreak Hoops @FastbreakHoops5]

Nahh, these third graders acting different now 😂

[Tyler Relph @TylerRelph10]

He didn’t say anything about “change” he said he will create his own culture which he absolutely should and needs to and I hope he finds success in it.

BUT!!! Some programs hire coaches because they need a culture change .. this wasn’t the case with St Bonaventure… Schmidt had a great culture

[eric firkel @ericfirkel7]

@mike85431 @ColNicholson The Colonel's daily tweet is a reminder that Bonas is still lying about how they fired Schmidt.

It wouldn't be as relevant, except that Beretta was forced to put out that ridiculous Laplaca statement saying that they will honor Schmidt.

[eric firkel @ericfirkel7]

@ColNicholson Definitely on brand.

[eric firkel @ericfirkel7]

@davidubben I'm not sure winning is all it will take to win us back.

Moving on from Schmidt when UMass came calling in 2022 made sense. Bryan Hodgson was available for a deal (less than 300K/yr). The problem was how Bonas fired Schmidt then lied about it.

Mark deserved better.
