@afistfulofteeth @TheRightDuff @JohnnyHudSF @stusandler It's wild that I need to keep explaining this, but again, I don't allege any legal violation. They have every right to say whatever they want. I can be delighted at the midterm results (and am) while also disdaining this stunt.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@afistfulofteeth @TheRightDuff @JohnnyHudSF @stusandler Invoking the First Amendment is like Walter Sobchak declaring that SCOTUS has roundly rejected prior restraint. Again, they didn't break any laws--they were just being shitty. It's like berating the gate agent because US airlines all suck.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@afistfulofteeth @TheRightDuff @JohnnyHudSF @stusandler They didn't break any laws from what I can tell. Doesn't change that it's just a shitty thing to do to young people working entry-level jobs who are about to be unemployed in an astronomically expensive city that also happens to be in a recession right now.

@butcherKYFBC @HannahESpengler One, I'm guessing you don't know who you're lecturing here; two, front office work is making the trains run on time for negligible comp and rarely involves ideological stances, and; three, compare your/Masterson's approach with that of the Colom family:

This is one example of the values my parents passed down to me. I thank @cindyhydesmith for her service to our state. It was never personal to me. God bless her.

@TheQueenMary67 @waltermasterson You’ll have to forgive my inability to take a QAnon crackhead seriously.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@thisonesistaken @NilesGApol @waltermasterson I live in the District now and have for over 25 years. You simply don’t know what you’re talking about. Hope you have a great evening and enjoy Sen.-elect Colom’s victory as much as I do.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@thisonesistaken @NilesGApol @waltermasterson You really can’t unless you know them all personally. You can pretend if you like, though.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@thisonesistaken @NilesGApol @waltermasterson I take it you’ve never been a Congressional or DC-based political staffer, because there are certainly people with family money who take those jobs with a mom & dad subsidy, but they aren’t the norm.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@thisonesistaken @NilesGApol @waltermasterson Public records show her junior staff earn about $65k/year. Median rent for a 1-BR in DC is ~$2,100. Maybe they live in group houses or commute in from MD or VA, but there ain't a whole lot of wiggle room here when that's your salary.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@BerthaMacc65 @NilesGApol @waltermasterson You seem nice. Hope you have a great evening.

@CougarTrainee @waltermasterson *ad, not add.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@CougarTrainee @waltermasterson That “pick another protein” add should be used in political science classes for years to come. I’m glad Sen.-elect Colom won, I simply dislike harassing junior staffers in public service. Just one man’s opinion.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@pieovercake @waltermasterson I’m not outraged—I wanted Sen.-elect Colom to win and think the country is better off with him in office. But pulling this stunt to fuck with the most junior of Congressional staff rather than the Senator or her campaign is just shitty. I certainly respect your right to disagree.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@BerthaMacc65 @NilesGApol @waltermasterson It sounds like you might be conflating political operatives and Hill staffers…especially staffers in the front office who often come from the Senator’s home state and earn a pittance.

@IlyaSomin @celtics @sixers I can't get over the Jaylen trade, but PG13 was electric last night.

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@RussianBerner @VoteHub Yes, if you assume that everyone currently in the lead in uncalled races remains that way (excluding the D vs. D and R vs. R races in CA and the two Louisiana runoffs).

[Jamie Gregorian @gregorian]

@stelenj @JakeSherman @RepBaumgartner I suspect this had something to do with it...

Rooting for injuries.

Elise Stefanik is a selfish, do nothing politician that didn’t lift a finger to help Republican candidates in New York this year. She had one moment of glory in what was otherwise an unremarkable career.
