@HSannity @Rabblewthacause @mikeroweworks Trump was a billionaire before he ran for president. Nancy Pelosi, Bernie Sanders, and Company have made their millions as career civil servants. Thanks for playing.

I want to apologize for not responding to any of the 22 thousand comments my last post inspired. I’ve been filming all week and just noticed my observations about Jimmy Kimmel and a former plumber named Markwayne Mullin have gone viral. I've also noticed that many of the comments are from people who genuinely seem to believe that Jimmy wasn’t belittling plumbers at all, but was instead, simply trying to point out that Mullin is not qualified to lead the DHS. Here's a small smattering... Roger Bicknell... Mikey stop. Kimmel wasn't making fun of plumbers he was making fun of Mullin. Rebecca Piatt Gonzalez... Dearest Mike, it's not anything to do with his being a plumber. It's him NOT being skilled in Homeland Security. Patrick Wise... Being a plumber qualifies you to be a plumber. Period. The issue Jimmy and the rest of us at the adult table recognize is that jobs require certain training and experience and being a plumber does not qualify you to be Sec of DHS. Had Roger, Rebecca, Patrick and all the others who rushed to Jimmy’s Kimmel’s defense actually read what I had written, they would see that I did not suggest - even remotely - that a plumber was inherently qualified to hold a cabinet position. What I said was that being a plumber should not disqualify a person from holding such a position. Big difference. Doctors, lawyers, veterinarians, fireman, and university professors are no more or less qualified to run the DHS than plumbers, electricians, or carpenters – but should they all be dismissed as “unqualified” simply because they made a living in some other vocation? As I wrote in my original post, credentials and diplomas are great ways to bolster a person’s credibility, especially if we’re talking about mastering a specific skill. I think we can all agree that plumbers, accountants, mechanics, and surgeons should all have to prove themselves competent before hanging out a shingle. But what do their credentials and diplomas have to do with their actual competency? Are we not already surrounded by a legion of perfectly qualified experts who don't know what the hell they're doing? Moreover, what do credentials and experience have to do with wisdom, honesty, common sense, integrity, courage, the ability to lead, or any other virtue we’d like to have in our elected officials? There are plenty of legitimate reasons to question Mullin’s suitability for this role. But there’s no legitimate reason to disqualify him simply because he used to be a plumber. Just as there was no legitimate reason to dismiss AOC because she used to tend bar. As for the joke itself, here’s an honest question. If Senator Mullin was a retired doctor instead of a retired plumber, do you believe he would have would made the same joke? Roger, Rebecca, Patrick...be honest. Do you really think Jimmy would have said to his audience, "So, now we have a DOCTOR in charge of protecting us from terrorism? Hey – it worked for Dr. Suess – maybe it’ll work for Markwayne!" Personally, I don't. Not in a million years. Why? Because no one would have found it funny, that’s why. Even though doctors are no more “qualified” to protect us from terrorists than plumbers are, Jimmy knows that doctors are widely respected in society, and that plumbers are not. He knows that medical degrees and doctorates are aspirational credentials, whereas plumbing certificates are not. The entire premise of his joke was based on a personal bias that he knew his audience shared – a bias that presupposes plumbers are uneducated, one-dimensional workers who never made it to college, and are therefore "unqualified" to do anything but plumb. Jimmy is entitled to his opinion, along with anyone else who believes that Mullin is unqualified to lead the DHS. The Constitution, however, says otherwise, and so does the Senate. Likewise, reasonable people can disagree as to what is funny and what isn’t. Frankly, I couldn’t care less. What I do care about, is the extraordinary shortage of plumbers and electricians our country is facing, and the longstanding stigmas and stereotypes that continue to discourage people from considering a lucrative career in the skilled trades. Jimmy’s joke – and his audience’s reaction to it – is proof positive that those stigmas and stereotypes are alive and well. PS. We have a lot of money set aside to help train the next generation of plumbers. Apply for a scholarship at mikeroweworks.org Who knows? Could be the first step on your road to President..

@Butterfinger That’s not how April fools works

APRIL FOOOOOL’S! But let’s be honest, you’d totally give this a try 😏 Did we get you good?

@betty_nft @DeeZe

@DeeZe I’m scared to even know what a butterfinger is tbh

Who the fuck wanted butterfinger ramen?!

@betty_nft @KITKAT You could say, “give em a break”

@KITKAT I’m sort of rooting for the kitkat thieves idk

Regarding recent press coverage

@Tapper195 @anabsolutefiend @RNCResearch @TMZ @BernieSanders I am and do

It’s $2-4 million and he owns two homes: Vermont - estimated value over 700k Vacation home VT - estimated at 900k + He owned a third one in Washington, DC, but sold it for over 400k. Yet he preaches about equality. I don’t know too many middle class families who are worth 2-4 million and own two homes.

.@TMZ making sure you saw Democrat socialist Bernie Sanders living large on his first class flight out of DC while he forces Americans to go without pay.

@DeItaone This is going to ruin the tour

Feels like all models are breaking. I think we’d all love for this one to hold.

@ryancarson What does that even prove

So I got sick and tired of the shitty Sonos app not being able to control my Sonos speakers in my house so we gave up using our Sonos speakers for a long time. Then I thought this morning, "Wait a second, I bet R2, my OpenClaw, can control the speakers and fix that." Sure enough, he can, so I recorded this little video for you all. @steipete @openclaw 👏

who wants one?

@MetaMask Your app sucks…

nothing beats the view in metamask today

most people don't even realize what's about to happen in the world because of AI today Jack Dorsey laid off 40% of his employees, and the stock for his company pumped 20% within minutes I made this video last week explaining how AI is basically going to wipe out the middle class, and the only way to "make it" will be from starting businesses or hyper-gambling in crypto, sports, pokemon, cards, etc... time to position yourself accordingly

@ashrobin Good choice

added a new pinball machine to the collection today I’m really excited to get this one back to the house ✌️

@BanishedTwit @beijingdou $$$

@beijingdou How did they go to all this trouble and still use a silver pinball instead of a pokeball?

Not the worst way to spend 3.5eth.

@DeeZe @HollanderAdam They dominate in terms of scale. Many better boutique options for quality and innovation. But back when I was buying these machines were 4-6k now anything worthwhile is 9-13k

@HollanderAdam stern looks like they kinda dominate (as someone who knows nothing about pinball machines)

didn't know I needed a pinball machine until today
