@SenFettermanPA Because, Senator, you're not a Democrat. You just haven't realized it yet.

@Ronin_Chartist @MarioNawfal @Ronin_Chartist Try again after you've looked up the difference between "recount" and "account".

@elonmusk @support It would be really nice if there was a way to disable seeing reposts of people reposting their own content. Too often, many X-ers repost their own posts, thus forcing me to waste unnecessary time scrolling past them since I've already seen/read them. It's especially aggravating when I finally work my way through dozens/hundreds of posts only to get to the top of my "Following" page and have X tell me there are x number of new posts. When I refresh to show them, I find that they are ones I've just finished reading moments ago. I already spend hours each day keeping up with everything, but I really don't need to see re-posts of the exact same content, especially when X-ers repost their own content, oftentimes multiple times.

@OpenlyReasoned @BuckSexton Have you ever heard the phrase "Tyranny of the Majority"? Democracy = 50% + 1 makes the rules. That is tyranny. That's why our form of government is a Consititutional Republic and the Electoral College exists. And that is what Democrats hate.

@AndrewKolvet I heard him say "Portland", but I did not hear him say "Oregon". Could be Portland, Maine.

[Lynn Clark @ruagod]

@libsoftiktok I've gotta ask: Portland, Oregon, or Portland, Maine? If it's the latter, then not quite as surprising.

@ajmismyjam @MattWalshBlog I'm not a dog person, so I have to wonder how much time you spend around them. Plenty of dogs eat their own -- or other dogs' -- shit. Then they want to lick and slobber all over their owners.

@MaryMargOlohan Is this a parody account?

[Lynn Clark @ruagod]

@TheBrancaShow Even better: Go home. Become a multi-millionaire there by doing something to make your home country better. There's obviously plenty of opportunity to do so there.

@PaulHenryTremb1 @BridgetCambria8 Why can't you be together in China? Who's stopping you?

[Lynn Clark @ruagod]

@BridgetCambria8 Why do courts need to do anything to keep families together? Why can't they keep themselves together? Where is it written that American-citizen spouses and children of non-citizens can't go live in the non-citizen's country? Since when is that a thing outside your own mind?

@DHSgov Why does the law allow people to apply for asylum at the border? Why aren't they required to apply at the nearest U.S. Embassy/Consulate where it is safe to do so?

The main reason it's $90K now is the government-backed student loan program. When I attended a large university (B.S. Electrical Engineering) in the mid-to-late 70s, the cost for a semester was about $500. I knew of no one who was taking out loans to pay for school (I'm sure there were some, but I didn't know any of them). If students' families couldn't afford the cost, the students would work summers (carpentry, landscaping, roofing, other building trades, commercial fishing, etc.). You could tell which kinds of work they did by the depth of their suntans at the beginning of each fall semester. After the government started guaranteeing student loans, all of those people stopped working summers because, why knock yourself out all summer? They got enough "free" money to pay for all of their school and living expenses, plus just about anything else they wanted to blow it on without giving any thought to how they would pay it back later. An unplanned -- or maybe it was planned -- side-effect was that this all created a giant vacuum that sucked millions of illegal aliens across the border to do all of those summer jobs that college students previously did.

Early-mid boomer here. Yes, when I attended a major university (BSEE) in the mid-70s the total tuition/fees for a full-load semester (~12-16 credit hours) were about $500. There was no government-backed student loan program dishing out thousands of dollars to students to cover every expense they could come up with to spend it on, with no accountability. Lots of students worked summers in carpentry, landscaping, roofing, commercial fishing, etc., to earn enough money to get them through the next school year. You could tell who those people were by their deep sun tans when they returned to fall semester every year. The Federal Student Loan program made it possible for those people to stop working summers and in turn created a giant vacuum that pulled millions of illegal aliens across the border to do those jobs. And here we are, now.

@TheBrancaShow Also missing: "Democracy", "Democratic".

Despite the lack of "solid scientific studies" you prefer, I can tell you from personal experience that Ivermectin kicks Covid-19 ass when it is taken as soon as symptoms develop. My Thai wife and I got Covid two times in Thailand. In both cases, we took the Covid-19 Critical Care Alliance-recommended post-infection dose of pharmaceutical-grade IVM. Literally overnight, the rapidly-debilitating bronchitis and other symptoms dissipated dramatically (given the severity and rapid onset of symptoms, I have no doubt that it was the Delta strain). Within two days it was as if we'd never had it, but kept up the dose for three more days as recommended. So you can keep searching for "solid scientific studies", but if you're smart -- and I know you are -- you'll buy some to have on hand when the next pandemic is unleashed on us.

@allenanalysis Well, somebody had to take up the mantle from born-liar Adam "Pencil Neck" Schiff. Of course it would be one of the dumbest members of Congress, Ted Lieu. But you be sure and get the word out. Dangerous idiots, all of you.

@fourboxesdiner @GregoryKBovino I'd say the MOST important 2A issue is reversing Mass immigration to the US. By all accounts it's already been stopped.

@CynicalPublius @chriswithans Sure, if the sarcasm sounds like typical leftist nonsense, it's hard to detect it as such nowadays. Pro Tip: add "/sarc" to the end of a sarcastic post to make it clear that it's intended to be sarcasm.
