A musical salute to Don Bacon’s unwavering support of Donald Trump, “Donnies Stick Together”: m.youtube.com/watch?v=5klmdU…

If you’re looking for me, I’m over on that other platform, under the same name. Cheers!

Wow, just got a blatant #pushpoll from #conquestcommunicationsgroup. Basic whom-do-you-support questions, followed by a half-dozen horrific mud-slings against Harris & Walz. I’m in Nebraska’s Second District. #ne02

@allinwithchris @chrislhayes Opinions are distributed to the full Court before release and colleagues can comment; you gotta imagine Kagan, Sotomayor, or Jackson (or maybe all three) saw that and thought, “You know what? I don’t think I’ll tell him.”

.@chrislhayes on how a typo highlights just how wrong the Supreme Court was for overturning the Chevron precedent. “Going forward when we are trying to figure out, say, how to implement an environmental regulation about clean air, that decision will not be made by the experts whose job it is to understand the issues, but rather by someone like Neil Gorsuch, who doesn’t know the difference between laughing gas and smog.

@DAbitty @NEHumaneSociety That #cat looks rather like a #dog. You sure about that hashtag?

It is Chloe’s 1st Gotcha Day and we are grateful to the @NEHumaneSociety for rescuing her so that we could give her a forever home. #Cat #Rescue

@DAbitty Name & shame!

Finally talked my husband into trying this restaurant again. We asked for a table for 5, and the person said, “Our kitchen is closed from 2:15 to 3:15, did you not realize?” Um, how could we have realized? We went elsewhere. 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

@ChrisDunkerLJS I think you mean Catherine, Princess of Wales.

@prchovanec Positive role models.

What exactly are we teaching kids these days?

Then we’re asked whom we would pick in certain Dem/Rep matchups, and finally we’re asked how our opinion of Bacon might change if he voted for Jordan. Lamesville, Don. Have the courage to choose the destructor of your choice. #ne02 cc:@TonyVargas

Then we’re asked our opinions on Biden, Scalise, Trump, and Bacon himself.

This morning I learned that @DonJBacon doesn’t have the courage to vote for Speaker without polling the question to #ne02 voters. Sounds like he’d like to vote for Jim Jordan, but suspects that we wouldn’t respect him. Here’s the key question; full survey in the thread.

No thanks, we’re good. We’ve seen a Trump rally at the Capitol already.

I’ve been laying low on Twitter, but this is too good to not share.

@teandoranges I decided to bail on Twitter when Musk reinstated Trump’s account. But lately I’ve been lurking, because I like the assemblage of voices I’ve made here. Should I come back for real?

Hey @NebraskaUnions I really appreciate you looking out for Nebraska bunion sufferers with the hashtag #nebunions. As someone who returned to college later in life, I really appreciate your attention to foot pain — as well as your comfortable seating. Got any Dr. Scholl’s?

I don’t want to attend any party where Trump is. Adios, Twitter.

@CautiousLefty Because Fetterman looked like them. Particularly the chin beard. I know tons of dudes who look like that, but I know zero politicians who do. Then along comes Fetterman.

I'll never understand why Fetterman did as well as he did. I get that Oz was a bad candidate, but Fetterman supposedly got 10% of Republicans to vote for him. If you are a rural PA voter unhappy with modern American society, why would you vote for ultra-liberal Fetterman?

Most liberals support higher taxes because they want to redistribute money from the rich to the poor. I support higher taxes simply to deprive the people of their money because they're sinful and don't deserve it. We are not the same.

@punished_cait A couple people were absolutely irate bc I said that one of my pet peeves as a children's therapist is that I hear the word Kiddos all the time, & that if people thought it was an acceptable word then they should have to call adults Adultos.
