Champion against logophobia, keeper of narratives and bender of iron. I lift heavy things in the gym and greater things with my mind outside of it.

@SpeakerJohnson since the Bible is your soi-disant guide, let me offer a scripture to you, "...every city or house divided against itself shall not stand." Governance requires compromise & a Speaker represents the will of the whole House, not just his or her caucus.

#Jag continues #ShootingFishInABarrel on his way to winning #BB25. Voting out #Cirie was in his interest. #Matt seems blinded by the glare of #MinuteMen alliance & is playing a less adroit game. Definitely VP level but not heading up the Executive. He may not even be #2...

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

Unless it is an extremely bitter jury, the only way anyone wins #BB25 besides #Jag is if one of the remaining players sends him to jury. But one cannot underestimate powers of persuasion of #Cirie and #Felicia #ShootingFishInTheBarrel

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

@LovePsychicMary I am only watching the v broadcasts. So unless you know from the feeds that #Jag already won veto, even if he plays he could be backdoored if he did not win. I understand that may not be strictly by definition the term but logically it's the equivalent.

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

If #Matt aims to win #BB25 he should use his HOH to backdoor #Jag. No way he takes the gold in this Olympics if they are both occupying those two chairs on finale night. #Jag is not only a better competitor but he also has a social game.

#GeorgeRomney's efforts to forewarn his party to abjure "know-nothings" & #BarryGoldwater prefigures #MitchRomney's later attempts to rebuff the anti-Constitutional stances of #Trumpism & #MAGA madness. Deeply riveted by @mckaycoppins #RomneyAReckoning

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

@mckaycoppins #RomneyAReckoning is sterlingly sublime & superlatively engrossing. I've not been so arrested by a biography since reading @LeandadeLisle's #TheWhiteKing. Perfect, too, is self-reflection on personal culpability present to Romney, which was so absent in Charles I

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

As he joins him in the jury house, I bet #Cory is regretting not keeping #Cameron last week #BB25

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

I knew the invisible HoH would be either #Matt or #Jag!

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

#Cirie & #Felicia give it up. Neither of you are going to win HoH this week. My bet is that it will be one of the power duo, either #Matt or #Jag. So won't be surprised if #Blue or #Cory end up on the block. #BB25

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

People in this house are as stupid & anarchic as majority in that other House in our national government. By voting out #Cameron they lose their only aegis against the steamrolling duo of #Matt & #Jag #ShootingFishInABarrel #BB25

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

Read some Emily Dickinson poems before the next AllStar season #Mecole #BB25 #BecauseICouldNotStopForDeath

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

However something starts heralds how it will end. An ignominious beginning ever sets the tone for the inevitable ignoble dénouement. #KevinMcCarthy #SpeakerNoMore

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

What highschool did you attend that you don’t know who #EmilyDickinson is?!! #Mecole #BB25

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

#Cameron kills it & is HoH. Time to send #Cirie to the jury house. #BB25

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

Government #shutdown seems a certainty. Grownups in the #House - by that I mean you #Democrats & non-MAGA #Republicans - should get a #discharge petition to the Clerk posthaste. I know its path has a circuitous route but #governance must not fall prey to #Trump’s jackboot thugs

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

With @SenFeinstein’s death, @GavinNewsom is thrust into a thistly circumstance. Notwithstanding his earlier commitment, it might be best to navigate the thorny path by appointing a caretaker who does not want the job in the long term. Former Senator @BarbaraBoxer for example

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

Bye-bye, #Jared. #Cameron once again proves he is a serious competitor. Now the house needs to boot #Cirie next #BB25

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

Listening to @SenatorTimScott speak one can’t elide the perception that his brain has time jumped to bygone policies. It’s not even a propulsive redux. Just an ineluctable catalog of atavisms. Perhaps core belief is that it’s enough to wear moniker of Black & conservative #Naught

[Sean Hoskin @shoskin]

#RepublicanPresidentialDebate was certainly a circus. Only less fun than a real one. #Clowns aplenty but nary a ring master to be found. When do we cease pretending that, with few exceptions, this is veritably a jockeying contest to eke out who will be #Trump’s VP running mate?
