So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell: ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’
@hwinkler4real Mr. Winkler, I woke up thinking about the water trucks working with production. I know they are leased but couldn't those help? I know Teamsters would drive them to save somebody's house.
This Veterans Day, thinking of those I served with, all who came before, and all who will yet wear this country's uniform to protect our country and our way of life. We will always be there for those who put it all on the line for America.
Beauty, stillness, calm.

That’s how I feel about Twitter. I’m not letting the bullies win. I believe in fighting the good fight.
