Hon. Joseph Barton

@Ultra603 @Isa_gp5314 @IanHuyett @Osborne4NH @PressSec @karolineleavitt The NH House adopted HR-45 Today affirming its claim to Portsmouth (NH) Naval Shipyard. @JanetMillsforME How great would it be for @realDonaldTrump to issue an EO changing the duty stations from Maine to NH?

@atensnut Get a job

Me: “I am, too.”

@jasonllevin Bullshit

@AVGirl4Life Meahahahahhahaha have they not seen ivanoa?

They release this to early. It should have been on April 1st

@JamesSpillaneNH I'm going to say its a thankyou card.

Arriving today, it seems. What's the concensus, fan mail or threat?

@LPNH They also use it as a power against political adversaries

Why did they include this in an article about bills that impact trans people? "the House passed House Bill 1184 which establishes a procedure for issuing trespass orders on municipal or school district properties." What did they mean by that?

@mannion4nh @donald4nh @travis4nh Yeah but when I do it should I really get shunned?

I think there are rare instances where speeches change minds, but the "spite vote" against certain speakers or long speeches definitely happen, and sometimes a compelling statement can buy support. I liked your floor speech, I like laughing during session, I liked Grill's email, and I generally try to be cheery in Concord. I liked Granger's speech about Peanut, I also liked Granger's "speech" where he demonstrated how easy the right to NOT say something can be applied (he just walked away abruptly), and Steve Smith's ball-busting from the Speaker's podium helped make the long ass days more tolerable.

I get respectful email. I respond respectfully.

@donald4nh @travis4nh I often wonder how much the house is actually influenced by floor speeches because I review the calendar before session day too. I ll try again next year only I ll leave out the cleverness

Indeed. I didn’t even listen to your speech until afterwards, since I had actually reviewed the bill itself and was going to vote with you anyway. It wasn’t until after I heard the grouching and griping about it from quite a few in the caucus that I determined to go back and review it later on. Still, it is what it is, and one must know one’s audience.

@donald4nh @travis4nh It’s unfortunate we have to be so uptight about everything. I covered every point and kept it at 1 minute and 37 seconds. I did mention dr saus s birthday was days prior and the subject was one that we as newhampshirites get made of constantly for having on our books.

And there’s the rub. I happen not to agree with Travis that Jessica’s email was beyond the pale, or that it was somehow fanning the flames of Barton’s theatrics (a Republican rep, mind you). I thought it was good-natured fun in its context of inviting us to karaoke. But not for a minute did I fail to understand the spirit in which Travis’ comments were intended, nor do I disagree with him that the unserious PI from @JosephJBarton weakened Joe’s case for the passage of his ferret bill. And the idea that Travis had any anti-Semitic intent is absurd on its face, if you have any knowledge of or familiarity with the protagonists. The unfortunate thing is that @NHSpeaker, who has been out sick, appears not to have had the benefit of that context in order properly to parse Travis’ statement in this matter. His comments, however, were clearly well-intentioned, unlike the Democrats’ intentional distortion and mischaracterization of the truth, which they and their co-opted “fake news” journalists do so often. #NHPolitics

@HeathHowardNH Yet you re still playing checkers.

Here’s what the House Progressive Caucus’s “childish tactics” resulted in: •We delayed long enough to indefinitely postpone “Right to Work” because so many Republicans went home. This was the main goal. •Republicans tabled their OWN anti-vax bill because I attached a bunch of amendments and they didn’t want to deal with them. R’s have a 40 seat majority. In a year where D’s never have the votes, we had to get creative. Every single motion I made was in line with House rules. Yes I was a pain in the ass. But R’s started this by messing with the House Calendar and limiting debate. We did what we needed to do to prove to people that there are some Democrats out there that have the courage to fight back against this BS. #NHPolitics #NH01

@TheOnlyEsta That his forst wife….

This is the reason why we’re at war👇🏽 THIS ORANGE F*CK SHOULD BE IN JAIL‼️ #ReleaseAllTheFiles

@HeathHowardNH Thanks for the 21000 pages of paper stuffed in our seat pockets

🚨DO NOT LOOK AWAY FROM WHAT IS HAPPENING IN CONCORD🚨 House Republicans are limiting debate to jam terrible bills through our chamber before the Friday night deadline. This is a slap in the face to Granite Staters and the democratic process. #NHPolitics #NH01 #NewHampshire #Politics

@HeathHowardNH @SamFarringtonNH Miss Rachel is the bees knees

@SamFarringtonNH Sam, glad you and I enjoy this meme

Today I almost got removed from the N.H. House Chamber for trying to stop House Republicans from disrespecting the founding principles of our democracy. First they limited debate. Then they adjourned session at 9 PM (after telling us we would be there until 4 AM) in order to prevent any possibility of voting on Democrat-sponsored bills. NH House Republicans do not give a shit about you. They only wanted to get through their bills as fast as possible so they could go home early. And now there is a slim chance any of our bills will even be voted on. I’m pissed. You should be too. #nhpolitics #nh01 #newhampshire #congress #vote

@HeathHowardNH We have a deadline we tried to extend but Democrats voted against extension limiting the time we have to consider all bills. In order for the house to consider all remaining bills we have to limit debate to make the deadline but of course you knew this.

@TheFungi669 He a already there

I wouldn’t mind seeing this smug little piece of shit being sent to Iran.

@Chris430968 Still smarter than Biden ans all you lot

@hashjenni Yo no none of thet is true right?

He raped a 13-year-old and then beat her. What the fuck are we doing here?

@Matt_Pinner A democrat

what do u call?

@DEFendFURiously Probably I think she’s awesome

Am I the only one who thinks that Karoline Leavitt is a fucking obnoxious, intolerable bitch? What I wouldn't give to smack that nasty attitude out of her mouth.

@Isa_gp5314 I can get tou some camels if you can make it to Tunis for can get you out
