@nigutb Your discussion on Georgia’s new school choice option today is elitist. I was at the signing yesterday and heard from a mother how this $6,500 will supplement her mother’s financial assistance to send the younger mother’s two children to a school they love.

@arthurbrooks , is there evidence that happier people are more willing to offer and deliver help to others?

The Chicago Teachers Union does not want you to see this film.

You better not watch the official trailer for it right here. ⬇️

I’m terribly disappointed that @Delta treated my advance questions about transit through AMS dismissively and dropped my call after four hours. I am a Platinum Medallion. Now I am not en route to my company’s client’s film premiere where I was supposed to be leading Q&A.

[Richard Lorenc @rlorenc]

I was waiting on the phone with @Delta for 4 hours to resolve my situation tonight before their system just hung up on me. I am disappointed in my hometown company after I was supposed to be on a flight to Oslo tonight. I need them to contact me.

[Richard Lorenc @rlorenc]

You messed up big time today, @Delta. Despite my direct and persistent questioning of you over the past week, I will not be permitted to travel to Oslo through AMS today because my full vaccination is over 270 days old. I’m devastated to miss the premiere of THE HONG KONGER.

I was never proud to be a Star Trek fan when I was in elementary school, but these days, in my late-30s, I can’t stop telling people about how Trek portrays humanity as a beautiful, optimistic, and open race that that has our brightest days ahead. 🖖#StarTrekDay

Desiree on DL 4947 from MSP to RAP today was an absolute delight. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ @Delta #starflightattendant

Both Stephanie at the @Delta Sky Priority baggage check and Annelise at the Sky Club at DFW today were outstanding.

I came, I voted, and hopefully Thomas Sowell: Common Sense in a Senseless World will conquer the #ShortyAwards! https://t.co/P0bXG9upUV

@AntonellaMarty @feeonline It was excellent seeing you again! Thank you for everything you to do to advance humanity!

@rogerkver Many thanks from all of us advocating and educating on the ideas of liberty at @feeonline !

@elonmusk I would like to invite you to speak with 1,500 engaged high school students on entrepreneurship and your story in Atlanta next June. How may we talk?

A toast to Liberty for the @atlasnetwork ‘s (virtual) Freedom Dinner 2020! It’s the most inspirational event of my year and I’m so happy the show went on during the pandemic. Congratulations to all of the Templeton Freedom Award finalists! #LFFD20 #freemarket #tuxedos

It was a joy picking out some of my favorite movements from Free to Choose!

[Gwartney Institute @123povertysucks]

Gwartney Professor Peter Jacobsen with @miltimore79 and @rlorenc compile some of the best clips from Free to Choose to highlight the contribution made by the great Bob Chitester.

I can’t tell you how many folks in working life I’ve encountered who are paralyzed by the idea of the perfect work. It doesn’t exist. Send the draft, as @jen_djinn writes here.

[Foundation for Economic Education @feeonline]

Anyone can have an idea. Few people ever act on those ideas. Fewer still present evidence that they’re willing to see those ideas through. A draft, however weak you may think it is, is always stronger evidence than vague promises. https://t.co/MNrTelZwu3

@AM_Zukowska I certainly hope that Poles can refrain from the temptation to label anything with which they disagree as "hate speech." We are also struggling with this return to Dark Ages thinking in the USA. 🇺🇸🇵🇱🏳️‍🌈☮️

[Richard Lorenc @rlorenc]

@Delta Hi, Josie. Thank you for replying. We are still without essential items in Cancun. We think our bag is still in Atlanta. Can you help?

[Richard Lorenc @rlorenc]

Couldn’t be more disappointed in @Delta for losing our luggage for two days and thus far failing to deliver it to us in Cancun for our close friends’ wedding. We know COVID-19 is tough but this has never happened with #Delta.
