Very rarely do I post personal stuff. However, since I finally took the initiative to figure out how to post MP3's to YouTube (and as well it's TBT) I figured what the hell. I have uploaded 3 selections from my Master's piano recital. youtube.com/channel/UCzKZf…

@jmontforttx Doesn’t he have to win the election first before you can call him incoming? Did I miss something?

Categorically insane.

@scottbraddock @DonHuffines How is he incoming? The election is not til November. I assume he will win (this is TX after all) but let him win first.

Per sources, incoming Texas Comptroller @DonHuffines not only told top staff this week they'd be judged on whether they're sufficiently Christian but he also wants to keep lawmakers in the dark as long as possible about the next revenue estimate bit.ly/4f7idIO

@JamesTate121 @Martina And again (sigh), not a drag queen.

This is literally a picture of the MAGA party.

@TheSteelersWire What’s his leverage? Sit out and enter the draft again next year?

@matt____rice Put her in a debate with no experience. Should be interesting…

New: Trump officially endorses Sen. Darline Graham Nordone to run for a full term in the Senate

@lisa_liberal Seriously, this better be in a campaign add!!

Unless you’re rich AF. Or kiss Trumps ass continuously. Then he doesn’t give a fuck about you.

@GloriaCampos Should we ever decide to move down there (fell in love with the area when our daughter was at TXST), I know now to get a high location.

This is why our casa high on a ridge will never flood. (Unless water heater breaks!) 6 miles north of Blanco town square. Praying for my Hill Country neighbors. ❤️

@SRuhle Assumes Mitch votes.

Wow… I read Vanilla breaking ice. I need to wear my glasses more often

@daveweigel Said the same thing several days ago…

@RepThomasMassie @Martina @SecScottBessent @usmint So get even. Vote against Blanche

@SecScottBessent @usmint Congratulations, we’ve entered the end stages. Eliminate the penny, plug the nickel, and make some commemorative gold coins nobody can afford. I feel sorry for the folks who will be sold worthless knockoffs of this by the usual grifters.

As America commemorates 250 years of independence, the @usmint will begin striking this new $1 gold coin to honor the enduring legacy of liberty and a lasting symbol of patriotism. Featuring President Trump, it celebrates the strength of American values, and the promise of a nation dedicated to preserving freedom for all.

@jgindel @JohnCornyn Same with Tillis and Massie. With no Mitch that should be enough.

@JohnCornyn Please be our hero, save America for our country, you are the only one who I believe can!!!! Todd Blanche is beholding to his boss, Donald Trump, and only Donald Trump!!! This is WRONG!!! Please help us!!! 🙏🙏🙏

@NathanJRobinson @hemantmehta Is this a SNL skit?

When I was in Michigan I wondered why Haley Stevens wasn't doing public events. I no longer wonder this.

Without knowing the story, I knew immediately it was Dunlap. What a jagoff.

@MollyJongFast These photos better end up in the trials…

@NormOrnstein Door to door? He was in a car. And illegals aren’t criminal. It’s a civil offense.

Thug

@GeneralMCNews @tindale_hayley Well there was - for trump.

BREAKING: President Trump's major speech on Thursday will reveal to the American people declassified intelligence reports related to foreign interference in the 2020 election.

@higg_alan @amyklobuchar @GloriaCampos And he turned on his good friend Joe Biden all in the name of wanting to be trump’s second banana.

@amyklobuchar @GloriaCampos Too bad he tarnished his legacy by siding with a pedophile even though he knew what he was doing was wrong.

It was a shock this morning to find out that my friend Lindsey Graham has died. He was a man who loved his work, his country, and his family. He didn’t have an easy life growing up and to me that explained a lot about him as well as his devotion to his remaining family members including his sister. It also explained his almost kid-like exuberance about his job and the responsibilities he was given (even in his sixties he would get off a plane in a foreign land with a twinkle in his eye and look at me as if to say, can you believe we are actually here and doing this?). Lindsey was loyal to friends and causes. He was willing to work on gnarly issues and take on (at times) political risks for the right reasons. It is fitting that he died shortly after visiting Ukraine, one of those causes he would stand up for through thick and thin. Much will be said in the coming days about his relationships with others—President Trump and John McCain for instance—but what can’t be forgotten is the reason why so many people he worked with—from senators to staff—will mourn his loss: Lindsey had a zest for life and the Senate that made you want to get to work on a bill with him or at least debate him. He brought joy to his job. Lindsey Graham was the one who was willing to work with me (when so few would) on helping the Afghan refugees. I remember standing outside of a little phone booth in the Republican cloakroom last year as he spoke with the Vice President, holding up a sign that said “Save the Afghans” and he put the phone on hold and said “OK OK I will go on your bill even if it gets me in trouble.” Or his early willingness to lead on big tech bills, including repealing the provision that protects them from consumer suits. But mostly my fond memories of spending time with Lindsey (and we travelled the world with John McCain) was not about the ups and downs of his policy positions. It was about his love for the world, his loyalty to hard causes and his friends, and the pure joy he brought to life. I will miss him.

@lrozen @morgfair New math: 1-6-2-3-4-5-7-8-9-10

Trump had another series of medical checks on May 26

@dcpoll @morgfair The new math - 1-6-2-3-4-5-7-8-9-10

ANOTHER physical and cognitive test??? Trump’s health and mental decline must far, far worse than we suspect.
