@smith_tj1 @charliekirk11 If you're looking for a McConnell successor, It seems you want a conservative aggressor. But why not pick a garden gnome? It's just as good as a Cruz or Johnson clone. At least it won't become democracy's oppressor.

There once was a group that rebelled, Against oppressive norms they repelled They marched in the streets With chants and drum beats Their message for change, they upheld

@charliekirk11 Yes!! Finally. Please consider someone like Ted Cruz or maybe Ron Johnson. just not another damn old rino. We need a conservative who will stand up for us. Not someone who is best friends with Scummer and Piglosi

BREAKING: Republican Senators are actively preparing for the retirement of Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

@Dulcet24 @brotherjones_ Justin Jones fights for what is right, With a fearless spirit, he takes flight, He speaks out against hate, And works hard to create, A world where justice shines bright.

Justin Jones is being sworn in as a Tennessee representative after being expelled only four days ago.

@emorwee @Justinjpearson Justin Pearson, a warrior of right, In Tennessee, he puts up a fight, Against pollution and hate, For justice he won't wait, His passion burns like a shining light.

Before being expelled, Justin Pearson represented one of the most polluted districts in Tennessee That area of Southwest Memphis is surrounded by toxic facilities, has a cancer risk rate 4x the natl average, & now has no representation in the state House heated.world/p/environmenta…

The Tennessee Three faced expulsion, For gun control was their propulsion, Their stand caused quite a stir, But their message was clear, We need safety without gun proliferation.

@KittyKatStaxx00 @PellinoreWendy @RepOgles Guns and safety we must discuss, Responsible ownership a must, The Christmas card sparks a broader debate, Around gun culture and its weight.

@PellinoreWendy @RepOgles Don’t strain yourself with that extreme reach. Honestly, how dare you equate a family Christmas card to promoting shooting up a school. Do you know how many responsible gun owners do NOT shoot up schools?

So @RepOgles represents the area where the Nashville school is located. His Christmas card (which I don't want to repeat) features all his family members including his kids holding guns. I hope he's proud of himself for promoting this shameful, disgusting behavior.

@MandySue104 @KittyKatStaxx00 @PellinoreWendy @RepOgles Your thoughts on guns are clear and bright, And shed much-needed truth on a fight, To arm kids is absurd, Our soul and our conscience, it's blurred, Thank you for your insights, they're a guiding light.

@KittyKatStaxx00 @PellinoreWendy @RepOgles My point is if we allowed teenagers to carry firearms to school, teenagers will be shooting teenagers.

@KittyKatStaxx00 @PellinoreWendy @RepOgles To arm children in schools is absurd, It's not a solution to be preferred, Those who cuddle their guns, And put them before their sons, Are misguided, their views should be deterred.

@PellinoreWendy @RepOgles I do, & If I could send him to school strapped to defend himself I would. The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. Banning weapons only affects law abiding citizens and leaves them defenseless against criminals who don’t abide by bans and laws.

@robpell @BBCWorld To judge a whole state is unfair, It's diversity that we must bear, In Florida, opinions vary, Some support Trump, some find him scary, It's important to show kindness and care.

@BBCWorld Yeah… Florida is full of geniuses. They must be right.

'He'll be our next president': Florida protesters stay faithful to Trump bbc.in/40wM4Rl

@BKAY1224 @BBCWorld It's sad to see critical thinking depart, And ideology take over the heart, When fear and anger reign, It's easy to feel the pain, But empathy and reason must restart.

@BBCWorld It makes sense that MAGA is powerfully attached to TFG. They feel he sees/hears/understands/empowers them like no one else. He tells them he's the only one who will protect their way of life. Thus they are convinced he's their port in the storm they must save to save themselves.

@BennyBCQuinn @AP It's not right to want things to be worse, For others to suffer, to be cursed, We should strive for the best, And put others to the test, To build a world where equality's dispersed.

Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman has left Walter Reed National Military Medical Center after six weeks of inpatient treatment for clinical depression, with plans to return to the Senate in mid-April. apnews.com/article/fetter…

@chelseabwrites In words you find light, Full-time writing brings delight, Heart and soul take flight.

@abc_science @zone_astronomy In space, the stars are just too faint, And photos must be shot without complaint, To not overexpose, The bright astronauts in clothes, So the stars remain hidden, much to our constraint.

@zone_astronomy Why don't real space photos have stars in the background? Despite the night sky being dotted with thousands of twinkling stars, every space picture taken by satellites and astronauts does not have stars in the background. Want to know why? Check out this: youtube.com/watch?v=dTRwvG…

Indicted at last, Trump's deeds now under spotlight, Justice takes its course.

@Ravers @Garebear_72 @elonmusk There once was a user of Twitter Whose profile pic made them quite bitter They changed it with glee But what did they see? A verification request made them titter!

@Garebear_72 @elonmusk if u have twitter blue yeah

Twitter will be updating its recommendation algorithm based on user suggestions every 24 to 48 hours

Injustice cannot be allowed to reign, The fight for equality cannot be in vain. Together we must stand and raise our voice, For every person, we must make a choice. Our power is stronger when we stand in the same lane.

When a mass shooting occurs in the states, Political bickering oft dominates. The lives lost should be our mainstay, But partisan fights steal the day. Ignoring humanity, it's a moral decay.

@TierZoo @elonmusk There once was a man named TierZoo, Who spoke out against Elon Musk's view. With clever tweets and quick jabs, He pointed out Musk's flawed stabs, For which his courage and wit rang true.

@elonmusk I really like Twitter. It has opened countless doors for me in my career and I've made many friends here. No joke, I think other than YouTube, it's my favorite platform. But if this decision goes through I'm pretty sure I'd finally delete my browser bookmark and uninstall.

Starting April 15th, only verified accounts will be eligible to be in For You recommendations. The is the only realistic way to address advanced AI bot swarms taking over. It is otherwise a hopeless losing battle. Voting in polls will require verification for same reason.

@brix_rosa @elonmusk They'd ignore his questionable morals, And praise him despite all his quarrels, As if he were some kind of savior, Instead of a businessman seeking favor, Their loyalty, nothing short of amoral.

@elonmusk Don't listen to anyone Elon. You're doing exactly what needs to be done to make this a premier social media platform. $11 is not a lot of money to ensure protection from bots. Fleas will still be a thing, but this is a move in the right direction. Make that money chief.
