@NessKathy @BarackObama I hope you’re a bot because how sad to think a real human thinks this and wants to share
It with the world.

There are 16 presidential libraries and this is way more than just a library.. also it’s a certain type of architecture for a reason.. plus it’s not tax payer funded it’s all donations from people that appreciated the Obama administration. Mind your business @billmaher

@bravohorn1 @Victorshi2020 How embarrassing you put who follows you in your bio. What a dork.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

Dear Joe,
I wish I could sit down with you face to face and explain why so many of us were offended by the UFC fight on the South Lawn of the White House.
For me, it had nothing to do with the UFC or who showed up for the fights. The brand you and Dana have built is a bona fide American success story. More power to you. As for the fighters, in my book, anyone brave enough to put it all on the line in the arena is remarkable to witness. Their dedication and discipline inspire me. I don’t understand anyone who can’t admire that.
And as for the people who attended, I, for one, love Shane Gillis. I think he’s hilarious and brilliant. It was a show. A once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. I can’t blame anyone for wanting to witness it firsthand.
My problem is that I believe some of our public spaces are sacred. And unlike many of the great powers that came before us, these American monuments belong to all of us. Not to whoever happens to hold power at the moment.
The White House does not belong to Donald Trump. It does not belong to any President. It belongs to the people. To treat it as Caesar treated the Colosseum is antithetical to everything our founding fathers fought for.
This is not Rome. Presidents are not emperors doling out bread and circuses for the peasants. The White House is the People’s House. This “celebration” could have happened in any stadium within a stone’s throw of the South Lawn. No one would have had an issue with it.
But that was obviously Donald Trump’s whole point. By holding the event on the South Lawn, what he was saying to the rest of us is:
“This is my house. I own it. I will do with it what I please. I’ll build a colosseum and have the gladiators fight under my gaze. I’ll tear down the East Wing. I’ll pave over the Rose Garden. I’ll cover everything in gold and marble. I’ll erase the names of all the men who came before me.”
The fights were an exhibition of imperial domination, not a celebration of our 250th anniversary as a democracy.
The White House is not Buckingham Palace. It is not the Palace of Versailles. It is not the Forbidden City of Beijing. It does not belong to an emperor, or a king, or a commissar.
The White House belongs to us. All of us. The person who sits behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office is nothing more than an honored guest. A temporary caretaker.
The President is our servant. Not our Caesar.
Respectfully, Hunter

P.S. Cage match between me and Don Jr.? Your call on the venue. Anywhere but the South Lawn.

@NewFifeRight14 @Alvarinho_Samba @therobbieharvey No you’re insane and thoughtless.

[westcoastgirl68 @Farsteph]

@Debra_Stone75 @therobbieharvey Oh man. There’s very little to say to a response like this. Wow. Sad

Sheryl Crow speaks out after Trump’s UFC 250 event: “To stay quiet means to turn a blind eye. And so I am saying this. What happened last night on the lawn of the White House was disgraceful and void of decency. Powerful, rich people filled the lawn to watch a violent sport that ended with a vile and racist comment. All while the average American cannot afford healthcare, gas, and cost of living. Do not be fooled. This administration is corrupt and does not give a damn about the American people. It only cares about making money hand over fist at the expense and in spite of our democracy. If we continue to support this kind of distraction from reality, we are no better than them. Let's be better, America.”

[Jemele Hill @jemelehill]

Oh that was nice. Josh Hokit ended his post-fight interview with Joe Rogan by calling Michelle Obama a man. Nothing says let’s celebrate America quite like that. Truly special. #UFCFreedom250

This is seriously the cringiest collapse of a nation in real time.

.@XavierBecerra has the experience and grit California needs.

He will stand up to Donald Trump, defend our families, and keep our state moving forward.

It’s time to get to work and help him win this November.

Spencer Pratt has been eliminated from the Los Angeles mayor race

Here’s a list of the celebrities who humiliated themselves by endorsing him

[Addisu Demissie @ASDem]

Whoooooa please do not put top-two on California Democrats writ large. It was a stupid deal that a Democratic legislative leaders took when threatened by Republican governor. It was opposed by the party (GOP too!) and a majority of Dem voters at the ballot. Narrowly passed 53-47.

[westcoastgirl68 @Farsteph]

@exxhibit_c Or he could do the things he says he cares about.
