@JohnCornyn So so sad.

@seanmdav @JohnCornyn Oh look -- another person who sold their soul to Trump! You are peas in a pod, Sean.

@JohnCornyn You probably should’ve passed the Save America Act.

I have worked closely with President Trump through both of his Presidential terms and voted with him more than 99% of the time. He has consistently called me a friend in this race. It is now time for Texas Republican voters to decide if they want a strong nominee to help our GOP candidates down ballot and defeat Talarico in November, or a weak nominee who jeopardizes everything we care about. I trust the Republican voters of Texas.

@JohnCornyn Too bad you had to toss your integrity to get close to Trump.

@WizardsLead Yeah, no.

Who says no? Mock trade that works out for both side and swapping the picks.

@ReviewsPossum Huh? Logging and mining in nature, maybe.

I'm not sure how appreciation of nature became right-wing coded in my lifetime, but there's probably something to be said about that.

@ccummings1967 @RadioFreeTom @RichLowry When did your last ounce of integrity abandon you, Rich?

@RichLowry Frankly, Rich, you've turned into a snivelling bootlicker. You've never presented as a man's man, but now you're even more of a soyboy than ever before. Get off the stage, your time has passed.

NR’s editorial: We hope that the district’s voters on Tuesday will send Massie to a well-earned retirement, giving him the opportunity to join ally Marjorie Taylor Greene in airing their grievances and wild-eyed theories in the private sector. nationalreview.com/2026/05/thomas…

@graveair Huck Finn. Easy.

There’s literally not a single American novel that could be considered “Top 20,” other than Moby Dick. But also ranking art in lists is an entirely degenerate American invention.

@JeffBiesinger I wish it was which two are allowed to keep talking.

Skip aaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnndddddd Skip.

@HistoryBoomer Looks legit .

Texas is big enough to contain all of Russia.

@Joshua_M_Hump Mmmkay. 🤷🏼‍♂️

The hotel we’re staying at left some kindling for me.

@Djoko_UTD 50 isn't old!

@asalonitis @athenaeumbc Poem.

@athenaeumbc Is the Iliad not considered a novel?

The Guardian has just published its "100 best novels of all time" list — these are the top 12. Toni Morrison's Beloved is in 2nd. Dostoevsky does not make the top 25... What do you think?

@cglassey_author @athenaeumbc @the_culturist_ Terrible. Okay. 🙄

@athenaeumbc @the_culturist_ Ulysses by Joyce is a terrible novel. Beloved is not great. The other novels you show are quite good. Mark Helprin's "A Winter's Tale" is the best American novel - period, so if the list doesn't include it, it's a poor list. Also, what about MY novels?

@AndarianP @athenaeumbc 🙄

@athenaeumbc Any list with Ulysses on it has zero credibility.

@Grotto_NH @athenaeumbc @the_culturist_ Boo.

@athenaeumbc @the_culturist_ Ulysses is wildly overrated. Pushed by the literati, in service of a political agenda, largely boring and full of Joyce's "epiphanies" instead of things actually happening. -recovered Joyce enthusiast

@dcsandbrook @kevinobriencha1 @bookclubpodhq Yah, well, you obviously don't know what you are talking about. 🙄

@kevinobriencha1 @bookclubpodhq Personally I find C&P overwrought, a bit pretentious and a bit boring, like so much Dostoyevsky. I can see why teenagers like it, though.

The Guardian's much-debated list of the greatest novels is ... a perfectly good and sensible list. The people whining about it can't have read the books. But don't worry. We'll cover them all on @bookclubpodhq eventually.

@ThoughtfulSaint Nah. This ain't it.

Amen

@AcunnSon @dinosaurs1969 Never bring a hammer to a gun fight.

@dinosaurs1969 New York City troops gonna be beating the Mormons to death with hammers

@dinosaurs1969 Desert Power!

@MilanSado @ModernCeasar Quiet, you! 🤨

@ModernCeasar Dostoyevsky is overrated 🤪

If a reading list does not have Dostoyevsky amongst top 10, it is not a serious reading list.
