The worst are full of passionate intensity.

How will life on earth end? My money is on cntl-c.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@khrachvik The didn't take it. They created it, and as a result, the middle class got wealthier, too.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@ProudSocialist Elon has a ton of money, but he didn't take anything from me earning it. In fact, he has made my life better.

Socialists are stoking envy which leaves us all diminished.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

I applaud my Representative, @realBrandonGill, for this commitment

[Rep. Anna Paulina Luna @RepLuna]

Myself and 24 other members have signed a letter pledging to vote NO on any Senate bills unless SAVE America is passed.

Now, the Senate is sending a housing package to the House, and to honor my pledge I will oppose it unless SAVE America is attached.

The Senate cannot keep obstructing President Trump’s agenda while ignoring election integrity. I call on my fellow colleagues to stand firm and honor their pledge.

I'm not troubled by the provisions of Texas SB 2420, beyond thinking it's more complicated than it needs to be.

Here's a simpler scheme instead: Children should need their parents' permission for every app they download. That puts the responsibility where it belongs — on the parents.

I also wouldn't object to extending parental controls to the websites kids can access.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

As a parent, I like the idea of checking ages before allowing access to certain kinds of online content. As a free speech advocate, I also believe anonymous online speech is vital.

It’s possible to have both. How about requiring ID only for age-sensitive content? There may be cases where identity validation is needed, but mostly no. The default should always be that no ID is required.

The SAVE Act is the single most important thing on Congress' plate. In his first term, @tedcruz would have been all in.

For myself, there will be no more donations to Republican candidates or other Republican causes until the Senate passes this.

[Mike Lee @BasedMikeLee]

The SAVE America Act would help save America by restoring election security, which has gotten dangerously weak in recent years

Those who disagree with my support for the bill or the aggressive strategy I’m proposing for getting it passed are free to do so

But I’m not stopping

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@SenJohnKennedy Proof that Congress cannot effectively oversee this kind of spending. The grant system is broken.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@Osint613 Of which delegation is this "diplomat" a member?

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@ewarren Exactly. Everyone wins when people are rewarded for making the lives of others better.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@NYCMayor Ignorant envy or maybe lust for power or maybe greed or maybe all three.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@Burrows4TX @TexasGOP Something stinks in Lubbock.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@Yeenie_Mcbeenie @grok, is this prompt logical economically, or is it emotional and manipulative?

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@JohnCornyn @LeaderJohnThune Not regretting my vote for Paxton.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@Osint613 In my country, Carlson is widely recognised as a loon. Quoting him damages your credibility.

My mouse is hovering over the unfollow button. I generally find your account useful, but not so useful that I’m willing to put up with Carlson’s wackiness.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@Osint613 I don't give this report any credence. You are naive to amplify anything (1) from the NYT, (2) without direct attribution, (3) that has the effect of introducing FUD. I give it < 10% of accurately reflecting the US government's position.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@Bumgarner4HD63 Integrity is important. Kind of like elections. Baseball is right to keep Rose out of the Hall.

On the other hand, things are rotten in Lubbock, including Sorsby, Tech, Judge Curry, and Dustin Burrows.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@Osint613 I don' t suppose you could name the official or the office. Otherwise, this post is useless.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@XFreeze Is Elon trying to turn Europe against ASML? Will we soon learn that SpaceX/xAI, or Tesla is acquiring one of the U.S. photolithography startups?

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@Osint613 Or maybe Anthropic wants to keep its current advantage even though it can't develop enough data centers to stay ahead.

[David Phillips @thugish_hermit]

@Brookltnwilliw I agree with the content and hate that it is a deepfake. The deception cancels out any good this method might do.
