@cdenton71 @RepJackKimble Nobody’s working 344 days a year. That’s 1 day off a month.

Just a friendly warning. We don’t even make $200k per year in Congress despite working nearly 140 days. If we aren’t properly compensated, a lot of us will go to the private sector and you will be left with some real idiots in Congress.

@Manhattva @MattDarJeito Post under your real name and picture and I’ll consider it. I don’t do stuff for anonymous accounts.

I very rarely ask any of my followers for personal favors, But if I could very politely ask you to just spend five minutes today and make a couple of these phone calls telling our representatives to get this through. It’s very important. I really appreciate you guys.

The president purchasing Nvidia shares a week before his own Commerce Department allows them to sell one of our most valuable assets to our main geopolitical opponent is unfathomably more corrupt than anything on Hilary Clinton's email server.

@JonahDispatch Jews have endured vicious slander for thousands of years. They should not have to endure it by the likes of Kristoff and the NY Times. What a disgrace!

These protestors believe — quite justifiably — that Kristof’s column was full of deliberately incendiary falsehoods and that the New York Times shouldn’t have run it. Indeed, despite Rhodes’ use of the word “reporting” the dog rape canard was not reported by the NYT at all. Rhodes knows all this. He knows that’s why they’re protesting. He just has to say this obviously bad faith crap to further impugn Israel and Israel supporters. In fact, it seems like Rhodes doesn’t care whether Kristof’s account is accurate, because it served his purposes just fine.

@awfulannouncing @Spencer_Linton They play once a week with bye weeks during the season. I’m not a huge fan of a 24 team playoff but these are 19-20 yr old kids at the peak of their fitness.

"If we live in a world where Ohio State and Michigan rest their starters for that game at the end of the season, because they've got the potential of five playoff games still sitting in front of them, then college football, as we have known it, ceases to exist." - Mike Greenberg

@jaynordlinger @SSG_Davis_Ret Trump loves him some dictators, that’s for sure.

I don't think a U.S. president should side with a Communist dictator and denigrate a former president. There was a time when most Republicans and conservatives would have agreed with this. I remember.

@guypbenson @Mark_Kellner Just think how crazy these proposals would look if Republicans were normal

They are getting increasingly brazen as they discuss rigging our governing institutions in republic-destroying, power-mad ways. Openly, dangerously destructive.

@CriddleBenjamin @espnthefan No problem, BYU will just go with the 5 guard option

Jay Drew of the Deseret News joined @espnthefan and said it might be panic time: Q: BYU basketball has its four perimeter guys but still doesn’t have a center. Is it time to panic? Drew: Yeah, I do think it’s probably time to panic a little bit. Everyone was watching the Luigi Suigo situation out of Italy, and he mentioned Villanova first when talking about his options if he doesn’t stay in the NBA Draft. He did mention BYU too, but that’s probably not a great sign because I think he’s BYU’s top target right now. Guys like that don’t grow on trees. Big men who can really play are hard to find, and BYU desperately needs one. Full interview: spreaker.com/episode/5-13-2… 📸: @BYUMBB @BYUphoto

@SirWinston85 @krassenstein Whataboutism!

@krassenstein Remember when Trumps Son was smoking crack, transporting hookers across state lines, lying on gun forms, selling watercolor paintings to daddy's friends and banging his dead brothers widow? Oops, never mind, that was Bidens Son.

BREAKING: New information has leaked indicating that in 2022 The president’s oldest son, Hunter Biden traveled with his father to China to meet President Xi, while, running a business that his father had the majority ownership in. Oops, never mind, that was Eric Trump today.

A news reporter asked Michael Jordan if he thought the ’90s Bulls could beat LeBron’s Lakers. MJ: Yes. Reporter: By how much? MJ: Two or three points. Reporter: Why so close? MJ: Most of us are almost 60 now.

@KatTimpf My deepest condolences on your painful loss, Kat. You will see your father and mother again.

My seemingly healthy, strong father Daniel “Dad Timpf” Timpf died very unexpectedly on the evening of May 7 at just 69 years old.   It does not seem like enough to simply call him my father, because he was so much more than that. He was my rock, my hero and my best friend. He was loyal, funny, kind, selfless, hard-working, and so devoted to his children that it was impossible to be near him and not find yourself inspired. He was a writer, a painter, a sailor, and somehow knowledgeable on every subject from world history to literature to accounting. He was the most dependable person anyone has ever met. I always felt like, as long as I had his phone number, there was not a problem I could not solve. I needed him here with me; I am not okay, and I am far from the only person who feels this.   The birth of my son in February 2025, his first grandchild, was supposed to be a happy new beginning for our family. A family that had been already once devastated by an untimely loss: the loss of my mother Anne Marie to a rare disease in 2014 just a matter of weeks after her diagnosis.   The joy of my son’s birth was, of course, complicated by my also very unexpected breast cancer diagnosis just a matter of hours before going into labor with him. During this time, my dad did what he did best, which was to save the day. As soon as he heard about my diagnosis, he simply got into the car and started driving to New York -- making it through the tunnel just as my  son was born…on the day that happened to be his own birthday, as well.   In the tumultuous time of a simultaneous new cancer diagnosis and new baby, my dad was the sole reason for our stability, rushing in to help care for our son, and returning to do so again for my double mastectomy, reconstructive surgery, and any time that we ever needed him. It was an awful, awful year… but I found so much joy and hope throughout it by watching the beauty of a very special relationship form between my son and my father. This horrible thing that was happening was creating such a very special bond between the two of them -- almost making the terrible thing worth it -- and I was so excited to see how that bond would grow.   The bond was of top priority for my father, who visited from Michigan often. I saw him last on the Monday before he died, and my son was so proud to help his grandfather push his suitcase down to the car as he left. The goodbyes were quick. Why wouldn’t they be? We would all see each other again at the beginning of June, when we would all head to Texas for my shows and to see my grandpa. We wanted to make sure that my son could spend as much time as he could with his great-grandfather. He is, after all, 93.   I was certainly not over the trauma of my cancer or having to amputate the breasts I so badly wanted to feed my son with, but the one thing I could always count on to get me through my worst moments was seeing my son’s and my father’s faces light up when they saw each other, be it during the visits or our routine morning and bedtime FaceTime calls.   That is, at least, until I had to hear over the phone from a doctor I had never met in an emergency room in the same town up north that I’d previously announced to my father that I was pregnant that my dad was dead; I would never see him again, and neither would my son. It would turn out that last year was not the hard one, after all. Rather, it was the one I would now do anything to relive. I would amputate my breasts every year just to be able to speak with him one more time, even for five minutes.   I am currently living an unimaginable horror. For many people, this is a tragic story. For me, it’s my life. I do not know how I will recover from it. I only know that I have to for the sake of what is left of my family.

@collinsworth55 @CriddleBenjamin Don’t the Jazz need a SG more than a small forward?

If AJ Dybantsa’s camp expresses to Washington that they want to be in Utah I see very little needed to swap those picks. I’m sure they don’t see a huge gape from AJ and DP!

@avgbballplayers Missed the box when he tried to put his ballot in it

BREAKING: NBA legend Greg Ostertag has been elected as mayor of Mt. Vernon, Texas 🎉

@Miles_Brundage @JimPethokoukis “Probably ok for you”😅

Diet Coke is a great human achievement Delicious 100% of the time in canned/bottled form (but also customizable with fountain machines), produced and distributed at an unimaginable scale, probably OK for you, no animal-derived ingredients, loved across political + other lines

@greggnunziata When one party goes insane the other follows. Huge weakness of the 2 party system.

The president is a constitutional arsonist and the GOP is happy to stand aside at best, or pour on the gas at worst. We desperately need a pro democracy and pro rule of law party. Alas, the Democrats refuse to be that party, wanting only their turn. We're in a bad place.

@greggnunziata Lil’ Marco or JD?

A senior person in this admin did not take the opportunity to serve in the first Trump term. He told me at the time that no honorable Christian could serve under Trump. Now this person, doing great damage daily, speaks about how honored they are to serve a visionary leader.

Trump 2.0 is far worse than 1.0, but official Washington GOP is much more on board. In 2017, folks thought MAGA was a fad and that they could honor their ethics and sit things out, or collaborate with reservations, but now it's their career or principle. Career wins.

@FiredUpCoug Dog needs to be put down

Remember me talking about my neighbor's dogs that keep pooping in our yard with zero care from the owner? One of them just chased my 6yo daughter while she was playing outside and bit her arm. 15 minutes before by 9yo daughter's birthday party. I'm not at the urgent care with my six year old and my wife is juggling a birthday party with 8 kids on her own. This is the second child this dog has bitten. We have already contacted animal control and filed a report. Is there anything else I should be doing?

@pastormarkburns Why would anyone mistake a golden statue of a cult leader to an idol? Weird

One of the greatest honors of my life was leading the dedication of President Donald J. Trump’s statue to the world. What amazes me is how quickly some people have compared this beautiful statue, created and made possible by more than 6,000 patriots, to a golden calf or idol worship. Let me be very clear. We worship the Lord Jesus Christ and Him alone. The Word of God says, “You shall have no other gods before Me.” Exodus 20:3. It also says, “You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.” Matthew 4:10. That is the line. Honor is not worship. Respect is not idolatry. Celebration is not bowing down to a false god. Romans 13:7 says, “Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor.” Giving honor where honor is due is biblical. Bowing down and worshipping an idol is sinful. There is a major difference. This statue was not created for worship. It was created as a symbol of resilience, patriotism, courage, and gratitude. It was created to honor a man whom many may disagree with, but millions of Americans believe has done extraordinary things to make this nation stronger. People celebrate athletes, musicians, entertainers, and cultural icons while they are still alive. Michael Jordan has a statue in Chicago. Cristiano Ronaldo, Taylor Swift, Shakira, Ed Sheeran, and many others have been honored publicly in different ways. Yet Christians were not screaming “golden calf” over those moments. So why now? You may dislike President Trump. That is your choice. But you are in gross error if you think for one second that I worship this magnificent statue or anything made by human hands. Acts 17:24 says, “God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands.” My worship belongs to God. My gratitude can still honor people. My faith is in Christ. My respect for a leader does not replace my reverence for the Lord. Before you judge, condemn, or spread false accusations, use spiritual discernment. 1 John 4:1 says, “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God.” Some of you know the voice of the Holy Spirit. Listen to that voice before you give room to the devil through lies, slander, and false judgment. Ephesians 4:27 says, “Nor give place to the devil.” We can disagree politically and still tell the truth spiritually. This was not idol worship. This was honor. This was gratitude. This was patriotism. And above all, Jesus Christ is still Lord.
