Just.Done

@SteveScalise Oh man, this thread is crazy! Look at all the miserable, hate-filled Democrats...wishing you a speedy recovery. That's how it's supposed to work. I don't like your politics or partisan attacks, Mr Scalise, but what I really HATE is cancer. Wishing for your full recovery!

After a few days of not feeling like myself this past week, I had some blood work done. The results uncovered some irregularities and after undergoing additional tests, I was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, a very treatable blood cancer. I have now begun treatment, which will continue for the next several months. I expect to work through this period and intend to return to Washington, continuing my work as Majority Leader and serving the people of Louisiana’s First Congressional District. I am incredibly grateful we were able to detect this early and that this cancer is treatable. I am thankful for my excellent medical team, and with the help of God, support of my family, friends, colleagues, and constituents, I will tackle this with the same strength and energy as I have tackled past challenges.

Now that I've finally received a bluesky invite, I'm not sure I want it. I'm getting into Threads, but not yet wedded to it. Where's everyone going? It's long past time to ditch the Xitter, so...little help here?

If you think the absolute worst picture of you is the big "orange" one with your chin pulled way back, you're wrong. It's the one of you doing your impression of Serge Kovaleski.

@newrepublic You know, slitting those deep state throats is a lot easier with really long knives. He might want to incorporate that into his messaging. "Day of the long knives?" "Lunch of the long knives?" I'm sure it's there somewhere...

Justice Alito’s recent statements casting shade on Congress’s authority under the U.S. Constitution to regulate the Supreme Court are as ignorant as they are arrogant, and their very utterance injures the Court’s essential credibility: politico.com/news/2023/07/2…

@waynesutton @Twitter @elonmusk @SFPD I'm honestly shocked he didn't just dynamite the building.

Welp, @twitter name so coming off the building right now but @elonmusk didn’t get permit for the equipment on the street so @SFPD is shutting it down.

Operation Lone Star is nothing but a political stunt. We're talking about kids and mothers dying at the direction of Governor Greg Abbott. It's criminal, and it must stop now.

Welcome to X.

@wcbuecker @BillyBaldwin @mame6432 Exactly my reaction shortly before I stumbled on your reply. New Twitter is a dumpster fire.

@BillyBaldwin @mame6432 Here comes the brigade of paid for blue checkmark accounts to support RFK Jr. Who also just happen to support MAGA and Trump if you look at their feeds

Is Bobby Kennedy Jr. a racist… I don’t think so. An antisemite… possibly but I’m not sure. A wingnut, conspiracy theorist… absolutely. Jacked of steroids… it sure looks that way. A sexual predator… most definitely. A total coward… of nothing am I more certain. #MaryRichardson

So great to see endorsements coming in from both sides of the aisle!

Florida man declares that people from Connecticut, Vermont and other states are no longer welcome in his state. Do New York next. I fucking dare you. mychamplainvalley.com/news/local-new…

Adrienne Martin finally had enough of extremists in her deep-red community trying to get books banned and to inject religion into her child’s school. Listen to her kick-ass speech before the Granbury Texas school board. It’s going viral for a reason. @MrsAMartini

I shot this documentary in Feb 2021 to explain how QAnon works, how it led to the insurrection, and why we cannot afford to ignore it. Deepest gratitude to the filmmakers and crew who donated their talent and time to getting this made. Please watch and share if you like it.

1/ I’m sorry to keep hammering on this story about @ElonMusk, but there are so many things to criticize. This is not up to @nytimes quality. First of all, there is issue that they take Musk’s statements at face value. This is journalistic malpractice. nytimes.com/2023/07/01/bus…

@JakeRudh Love this album, but it's annoying that streaming services always exclude the full, glorious nine-minute Drown, one of the greatest SP songs. Instead we have to settle for 4-minute edits on other collections.

On this day in 1992, the “Singles” soundtrack was released featuring Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, The Smashing Pumpkins, Mudhoney, Screaming Trees, Paul Westerberg and more.

This two bit, self loathing, sycophantic, white supremacy apologizing, uncle ruckus, benefited from race-based preferences throughout his entire career, yet sided with conservatives to overturn affirmative action. Clarence Thomas was admitted to Holy Cross in 1968 in part because the school was actively looking for Black students. He was admitted to Harvard Law School in 1971 right after it adopted a “race conscious“ admissions policy, but chose to go to Yale at the exact moment it created its first explicit affirmative action program with a goal of 10% minority enrollment. Thomas was one of 12 Black students in the class of 175. His application was evaluated separately and he received special consideration because he was Black. When Thomas left Yale he was hired by John Danforth, the Attorney General of Missouri. Danforth admitted it was because he was seeking to have a diverse office and that Clarence Thomas was hired because he was Black. Thomas left Danforth’s office to work for Monsanto at a time when the company was looking to hire Black lawyers. He went back to work for Danforth when he was a US senator and was looking to diversify his staff. He then went to work for Reagan’s Department of Education and was offered the job in part because he was Black. He then became chairman of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, a position that six Black women turned down before he accepted it. His entire career was a result of affirmative action. This man epitomizes hypocrisy and has always been an enemy to Black progress in this nation. #SCOTUS #AffirmativeAction

This photo is of a miracle in Philadelphia. In just 10 days Gov. Shapiro, President Biden and Sect. Buttigieg coalesced efforts, funds, innovative materials and union workers to rebuild I-95 and get critical infrastructure back to normal. This is why they say #DemocratsDeliver.
