Dolly Parton's free book gifting program was such a profound gift. No one asked for it. She just sent books to kids all over the US and elsewhere. My children loved receiving their "dolly books." An act of pure generosity that meant so much to so many families.

🚨Epic movement

🇺🇸 Trump: “I have brought down the gas price from the highs of the Biden regime.”

🇺🇸 Journalist : “That’s not true.”

🇺🇸 Trump: “Then what is true?”

🇺🇸 Journalist: “Gas was $3 per gallon when Biden left office. Now it is $4 per gallon.”

🇺🇸 Trump: “Shut up. You are fake news.”

He asked for the truth.

The reporter gave him the real numbers.

Trump's response? “Fake news.”👏

American journalists are literally cooking Trump.

Ossoff: While the sailors on the Lincoln fight his war, while he fruitlessly drains our munitions and oil reserves, the president sleeps through his meetings. He golfs and trades stocks. So he doesn’t want to do the job. He wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie on their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the Emir of Qatar.

As a father and husband, I can tell you the last two years have been pure hell for my wife Bridget, our daughter Emily, me, and our entire family in the aftermath of Emily's divorce.

It has been horrific to watch this play out in full public view, all while knowing an innocent two-year-old girl is caught in the middle. Our priority has always been protecting our daughter and our granddaughter. Out of concern for the safety of my family, I hoped to keep this matter private but Max Miller’s increasingly erratic and dangerous behavior has made that impossible.

As he has admitted privately, Max Miller needs serious psychological help. He is a danger to my daughter, and I hold my breath every minute he has custody of my granddaughter.

If there are any basic standards of character required to hold elected office, Max Miller fails them. He should not serve in the House of Representatives. I believe Max Miller needs to seek professional help to end the clear pattern of abuse he has left in his wake. I believe he should not be free to continue endangering others until he does.

I ran for office because I wanted to make a difference for the country that gave me every opportunity to succeed, and to leave this nation better for my children and grandchildren. That sacrifice has been especially hard on my wife Bridget, whose big heart and steady support have never wavered. I owe it to her, to Emily, and to my granddaughter to speak the truth now.

Dear, @SouthwestAir, one of your gate attendants denied me entry to the plane, saying my instrument case does not fit the overhead. Please have the baggage crew at MSY hold my luggage until I arrive in another flight later today. WN4692 Thank you.

@jwmjournalist @BreezeAirways Breeze is good when it’s good. But they can’t deal with it if anything goes wrong.

I wish people would stop spreading scurrilous rumours that President Trump is constantly shitting himself in public. After all, it’s perfectly normal to place a black mat underneath him when he visited the Fox News studio with its white sofa yesterday…

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

This is outstanding.

Senator Jon Ossoff was asked for his response to Donald Trump after he called him a "failed Dumocrat" and "Os(jerk!)off” and he managed to destroy him without stooping to his idiotic level. Just awesome.

Last week on a @Delta flight the FAs asked for medical help. There were a few physicians on the plane and an ER doc and I evaluated a passenger with new facial droop, clumsy speech and numbness in his face. Symptoms abated after about 30mins. Our assessment was TIA and as we had another 3 hrs in the flight, and even though the flight was already 2.5h late, we recommended landing the plane to get the passenger to a hospital for evaluation. The Delta doc on the ground who never spoke with the docs on the plane said ‘No he should be fine’.

Reposting this newspaper editorial that a Mississippi court ordered taken down, for the simple reason it was ordered taken down.

Don’t mess with the first amendment.

From the incredible blog Chinese DoomScroll:

If you ever see a disaster in China where exactly 35 people die, it's because 36+ means the mayor gets fired. It's fascinating in a horrifying way how authoritarian systems always develop their own unique post-truth quirks.
