@NutshellNuggets @danorlovsky7 Telling him during the play where you make the go-ahead bucket isn't going to happen. His mistake was going after the midcourt ref. Instead, he's got to head straight for the guy on the baseline ref that was 10 feet from him.

@danorlovsky7 Bro, the ball was inbounded in half a second. How exactly is a ref supposed to hear a timeout call over a deafening arena right as the shot goes in? Tell the refs your plan before the shot!

@RepFine The original intent of the Freedom of Religion Clause in the First Amendment was 'Christian Religions' not 'World Religions.' It's not just a Muslim issue but they of course are the dangerous ones.

Congressman Randy Fine
If you would like to practice your religion in peace and privacy, you are welcome to do that in the United States. But if practicing your religion means that others must submit to you and your beliefs, you can practice somewhere else. We will not change how we live in America to accommodate Mainstream Muslims.

Thank you Andy and Randy. We must ban Islam in America and we appreciate your efforts to do this. We can start with some basic measures, following Europe's lead, and impose serious fines on anyone wearing a burqa - $5,000. Banning any form of Sharia law. Banning any new mosque from opening anywhere in America, etc. Also banning any muslim from Congress.

@RepFine Yet, they stubbornly refuse to do so. Not only do they attempt to force us to adhere to a Halal diet and similar customs, but they also engage in behaviors that Americans consider unacceptable.

The @FBI has identified cyber actors associated with Russian Intelligence Services targeting users of commercial messaging applications, including Signal. The campaign targets individuals of high intelligence value, including current and former U.S. government officials, military personnel, political figures, and journalists.   Globally, this effort has resulted in unauthorized access to thousands of individual accounts. After gaining access, the actors can view messages and contact lists, send messages as the victim, and conduct additional phishing from a trusted identity. It's important for you to be aware and take action - this vulnerability is not with the application - but you as the end user.   The FBI and CISA have released a joint PSA to help you identify this activity and protect your accounts: ic3.gov/PSA/2026/PSA26…

I’m proud of the movement we’ve built across the state – our team is made up of Iowans of all walks of life and all political parties who believe in a commonsense, conservative vision for our country.  We are just getting started!

@NonGrataNo1 @JSchneid99 @RpsAgainstTrump The thing I think you're not taking into account is that, unlike crude oil, natural gas isn't a globally-traded commodity with essentially a single price governed by global commodity markets. The dynamics are simply different.

@NonGrataNo1 @JSchneid99 @RpsAgainstTrump historically, volatility in the global natural gas supply doesn't translate to US volatility. Since we dominate the market, volatility in the ME just doesn't have that big of an effect on us. It's not like our producers are suddenly going to ship it abroad and harm our market.

@tkped @JSchneid99 @RpsAgainstTrump The US is one of the top LNG exporters globally. Do you really believe that US gas companies, out of the goodness of their heart, won’t raise domestic prices?

@JSchneid99 @RpsAgainstTrump I would imagine most of those facilities have long contracts, but if 20% of the world’s production capacity stays offline for some time, that will change. I wasn’t trying to criticize you; I just thought the original post was strange, all things considered.

@CooterDukeIII @SenRandPaul In case this sentence was too hard to understand. Tell me how a person who can't even get a majority of voters to vote for him has "overwhelming" support of all Americans.

@RpsAgainstTrump So he’s “the alpha”? So what? He is a clown and I’d laugh directly in his face if he carried on in front of me like he usually does. Does this mean you feel emasculated in his presence, Brendan? Does your penis shrivel up in response? Why are you so afraid of that little “man”?

@AdkinsKerr26673 @American_Bridge He’s definitely right in line with the clowns in the Trump administration, though. A perfect match for the typical temperament, maturity, and qualification for office of Trump’s bootlickers.
