How about it @MLB

@AndySpecht If Wilson hasn’t suffered a freak accident I’d agree. But Wilson would have probably got them close.

UNC wanted to GET serious about football, so it hired the most successful NFL coach of all time. If UNC wants to STAY serious about basketball, it probably needs to hire a coach who can make a Final Four with his own recruits.

We had a lot fewer left wing nuts and right wing nuts.

@EricLuallen I think @JCameronShow would describe it as “Clemsoning “

What in the world is UNC doing there?

2day I was honored to attend a memorial for Justice Sandra Day O’Connor at the Supreme Court Im the only member left in the Senate who voted for her & she was approved 99-0 Pretty remarkable she was unanimously approved but that was the norm in 81 #realhistorychannel

You don’t need a passport or birth certificate to get a job. Or drive a car. Or catch a flight. Or open a bank account. Or attend a Trump Rally. Try harder Mike. @SenMikeLee

@ManifestHistory Just another racist traitor.

Colonel George S. Patton Sr.: Confederate Officer and Grandfather of a Legend Colonel George S. Patton Sr. (1833–1864) was a Confederate colonel in the Civil War and the grandfather of the famous World War II General George S. Patton (“Old Blood and Guts”). A Virginia native and great-grandson of Revolutionary War hero Hugh Mercer, he graduated second in his class from the Virginia Military Institute (VMI) in 1852, studying under Stonewall Jackson. He enlisted in the 22nd Virginia Infantry in 1861 as captain, soon promoted to colonel. He fought in western Virginia and Shenandoah campaigns, wounded at Scary Creek (1861) and Giles Court House (1862), and often led brigades with distinction. His final action was at the Third Battle of Winchester (September 19, 1864), where he rallied his men on the left flank before being mortally wounded in the leg. He died six days later at age 31 in Winchester. His courage inspired his grandson across generations.

🚨Nancy Mace and Debbie Wasserman Schultz getting escorted through TSA … … bypassing the lines the rest of us are stuck in. No wonder Americans are fed up with Congress. Just because you can skip the line doesn’t mean you should.

I am one of the few members of Congress who has actually passed a voter ID law (on a bipartisan basis), which I did as Speaker of the House in North Carolina, and that’s why I proudly co-sponsored the SAVE Act. While I support strengthening mail-in ballot integrity, many states like Utah, Florida, Alaska, and Montana rely on the use of mail-in ballots to conduct their elections, and we should not be completely upending how states already securely conduct their elections. Even if this issue is fixed, the SAVE America Act still will not have the 60 votes required to pass it. While the so-called ‘talking filibuster’ has been floated as an option, there is a reason why previous attempts to utilize it in recent history have failed. A ‘talking filibuster’ would effectively make Chuck Schumer the new Senate Majority Leader, allowing Democrats to block every single Trump judge and executive branch nominee, and allow them to force endless votes on anything they want. Democrats would control the floor of the U.S. Senate until the end of the year. There are only two ways out of a ‘talking filibuster.’ The first is for Democrats to miraculously give up and allow Republicans to pass the bill with a simple majority. That is never going to happen, and anyone who claims it’s even a remote possibility is either completely misinformed or intentionally misleading the American people. The second way is for Republicans to substantially weaken or eliminate the filibuster altogether. I have made it crystal clear that I will never vote to do this. Eliminating the filibuster is a foolish and lazy idea pushed by politicians seeking short-term gain at the expense of causing irreparable long-term harm to our nation. Succeeding in eliminating the filibuster would significantly weaken the minority party, end the need for bipartisan compromise, and allow erratic swings in policy that would transform America for the worse. Those are just the consequences of a best-case outcome. During the last Congress, all of my Democratic colleagues currently serving supported nuking the filibuster to try to pass their own partisan election reform bill. Democrats were dead wrong to try to change the filibuster when they controlled the Senate, and Republicans would be dead wrong to try to change the filibuster now that we control the Senate. The only real path to address the American people’s declining confidence in our elections is for both parties to find common ground on legislation that supports universal adoption of voter ID, proof of citizenship, and other vital election integrity measures.

Let’s go @HowardU

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York has charged associates of an unidentified U.S. server maker with illegally diverting billions of dollars in Nvidia-powered servers to China. In an indictment unsealed on Thursday, the U.S. government alleged that Yih-Shyan “Wally” Liaw, Ruei-Tsan “Steven” Chang and Ting-Wei “Willy” Sun worked together to violate the Export Control Reform Act. Liaw is a co-founder of server maker Super Micro Computer and a member of its board of directors. Super Micro said that while the company isn’t named as a defendant, Liaw works as senior vice president of business development, while Chang is a sales manager in Taiwan and Sun is a contractor. The company has placed the employees on leave and ended its relationship with the contractor. Read more here: cnb.cx/4byHit5

One of Coach Hams fellas is still dancing. @IraSchoffel @adriancrawford

@will_doran @AndySpecht please tell your coworker I’ve disinherited him for picking TTUN

I have the exact same Final 4, championship matchup and winner as the governor. But I did mine last night. Time to start looking into whether the state is snooping on my computer...

NEW: President Trump makes four false claims in a 43-word post about Tina Peters. Peters is 70 (not 73), does not have cancer, was sentenced by a judge in Mesa County (not the Governor), and did not expose fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

@RepLuna Because it’s a blatant effort to suppress people from voting. There is NO evidence of non citizens voting. NONE.

I talked to multiple Senators today. They know the floor debate is for show and SAVE America is going NOWHERE in the Senate. Ask yourselves why Voter ID, that over 80% of Americans support, is being blocked? Thune this is not a paid influencer campaign. AMERICA: If your Senators do not work for you, it is time to find someone else willing to do the job.

@SenRickScott Tell it to Trump Rick.

Putin is evil and wants to destroy America. Anyone that argues otherwise is either a fool or a liar. wsj.com/world/russia-i…

John Groce's interest in Miami (Ohio)'s First Four win last night was both professional and personal. It's good for the MAC, and the RedHawks are coached by his brother! nytimes.com/athletic/live-…

This company is using that infusion of government cash to hire 1,000 people here in North Carolina, we reported last year #ncpol

"It is bad for democracy to have fewer reporters watching the moves of politicians ... But also, if you just want to watch football on the weekend, you're going to pay more and more money to do that in North Carolina if this merger goes through." #ncpol wral.com/news/nccapitol…

Just spoke with #ncpol Attorney General @JeffJacksonNC. He's suing to block the merger of Tegna and Nexstar, who own multiple local TV news stations in NC. He's worried their merger will lead to newsroom layoffs as well as higher cable/satellite prices for millions.

Most people couldn’t tell you where they are on the road without their phone. That’s a problem. Teaching these boys how to use mile markers so they’re never guessing. One day, their wife and kids could depend on it.
