Originally, I thought Rand Paul was a principled libertarian-conservative like his iconic father Ron. In fact, he's worked on the debt, Fed and foreign policy. But this recent red meat populism as a Trumpkin and against Fauci is a betrayal.https://t.co/leGN29pcdP

"Rand Paul"
So, let's get this straight. Self-entitled rich celebrities like Stephen King are getting their blue checks subsidized by regular paying subscribers. Who does Musk think he is, progressive government?

I haven't watched American Idol since its Fox run. But, DAMN! When Smokey Robinson shows up with a new song. I'm all in. And the Hawaiian dude did an ABBA cover: I love it!

No Biden! No Democratic Party! No Trump! No GOP.

My latest essay criticizes how the GOP has mishandled the abortion issue post-Dobbs and "The Tennessee 3" controversy Note that I don't accept leftist talking points.https://t.co/aUWdGGDNNC

Not sad at Tucker Carlson's exit from FNC; he was once a conventional conservative who believed in free markets and trade. Instead, he identified with Trump's economically illiterate nationalism, even at one notable moment praising Cherokee Lizzie.https://t.co/vGxJhWRYWN

I didn't expect WWE to resurrect the World Heavyweight championship after its absence for a decade & its interim succession by the Universal championship. I thought the fact they didn't merge the WWE & Universal titles meant Reigns would defend both.https://t.co/3Gfh8SNmwF

No. Tuberville is not motivated by personnel considerations, likely motivated by attrition (retirements, etc.). He objects to the abortion leave/travel expense policies and had previously warned the DoD secretary of consequences to enacting said policies.https://t.co/3T6WgWgDoD

It's not because they don't deserve it, the military is top heavy and recruiting is way down

The number of admirals above 2-star rear admirals is capped by law (40 or so). Some appointments (perhaps Chatfield's appointment to the NATO Military Committee) work around relevant caps on flag officers.https://t.co/2rME9Dx0OL

"Go Tucker" To hell?

Tucker was better when he used to wear bowties.
Trump is threatening to skip the 2024 GOP POTUS primary debates. Do you really believe he's going to turn down free publicity, let his opponents talk about him behind his back or try out new nicknames for his rivals? He did that one time in the 2016 primary

So much for the idea rich people have class. I knew Trump brags about grabbing women by the p*, but I think he's confused by trans politics.https://t.co/hCvTR1QdHu pic.twitter.com/qUL9vwaSmp

Watching the NFL Draft on ABC reminds me that my high school principal was a former Baltimore Colts' draft pick. Big dude: you didn't mess with my principal.

The evil was not in bread and circuses, per se, but in the willingness of the people to sell their rights as free men for full bellies and the excitement of games which would serve to distract them from the other human hungers which bread and circuses can never appease.
Trump is trying to take credit for DeSantis' election as governor. Do we need to list failures of many Trump-endorsed primary and/or general election candidates? Maybe Trump and immigration helped DeSantis win the 2018 FL gubernatorial nomination, but Trump lost the midterms.

Biden playing chicken over the debt limit is in a state of denial over his part in risking the creditworthiness of USG debt. The Hypocrite-in-Chief had no qualms voting against debt-ceiling increases during the Bush Administration at a third of debt.https://t.co/uYp8XSnmCB

I know the WWE draft is a joke, but in what universe do NXT female talent get drafted before L:esnar, Rollins, Kevin Owens and Sami Zahn, the Usos or Theory?

Trump is beyond an incompetent, unqualified, immoral, anti-constitutional, twice-impeached, evil ink stain on American history. His embrace of a J6 criminal who wanted to execute Pence for following the Constitution is unforgiveable.https://t.co/hAowKq1EGU
