No one cares about your body. You are gross as a person. No amount of weights you lift will change that or make you any less unfit for public office. Resign.

@HerbertHistory She’s filing her nails while they’re dragging the lake. OR They bought an apartment with deep pile carpets and a couple of paintings from Sears, a big waterbed that they bought with the bread they had saved for a couple of years. (I teach that one in my writing class.)

What's a good comedy that doesn't seem to get that much attention? I like Fleabag.

@cwebbonline It’s their “top concern” because that is what their all-day news streams TELLS them it should be their top concern. If you ask them WHY it’s their top concern, they have no idea how to respond.

The media keeps telling us that immigration is a top concern for voters. I’m a voter and it’s not my top concern. I’m clear-eyed on the fact that immigrants drive this economy. Crime committed by immigrants is lower than crime committed by U.S. citizens and I feel no threat or concern from them taking my job or doing me harm. The immigrants I’ve known, undocumented or otherwise, are good, hard-working people. Follow @JerradChristian. He gets it. I wish more folks in the political realm took the time and had the heart to look into the facts and just — care.
Jerrad Christian for Congress@JerradChristian

We are the government - and every choice is made in our names. Never forget how you want to be represented. I went to Mexico to learn and to see a world unfiltered by press or the opinions of another. The suffering of our fellow humans should never be hidden from our site. We need to rebuild our nation and our world on foundations of stone - kindness, thoughtfulness, intelligent choices. Not the foundations of sand - fear, hate, and division. We must work to lift others out of despair and anger and I can say with all confidence, when their lives are better, our lives are better

@MrZachG @untitld_project It’s true about the “unlearning.” You will see a fair amount of guessing - based on the first couple letters, etc. If they have “sight words”, they may confuse them - then for when, etc.

@untitld_project I can also pre-test for Corrective Reading, but I feel like easier to just dive right into this because we have less than a month... what do you think?

My daughter is 6 lessons away from finishing this book. She can read like a 1st grader and she's 4. A new student just entered my middle school who is unable to decode. I will end the year by teaching him with this book.

NEW: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott just pardoned Daniel Perry, a former US Army sergeant convicted of murdering a protester at a Black Lives Matter rally in 2020. He was sentenced last year to 25 years in prison. His “firearm rights” were also restored. cnn.com/2024/05/16/us/…

I know we’re all struggling with higher electric bills. Over the last 5 years, the average Tampa Electric bill went up 51%, and the average Duke Energy bill rose 28%. Florida relies on natural gas for 74% of its electricity needs - more than any other state. Consumers would not be so vulnerable to global fuel price swings if more of the state’s energy came from renewable sources. It’s better for our wallets, future, and environment.  #ClimateChange #RenewableEnergy #FoxForCongress #Florida tampabay.com/news/business/…

The DeSantis-installed state attorney in Hillsborough County dutifully doing exactly what she's been instructed to do by the DeSantis front office and aggressively injecting national politics into her media releases.
State Attorney Suzy Lopez@SuzyLopezSA

Angel Cuz Choc is accused of murdering his girlfriend and her 4 y/o daughter. My office is now seeking the death penalty. This tragedy is made even worse by the fact that the defendant took advantage of our weak borders entering the U.S. illegally. He will be held accountable.

I get this same message every single day. “Jesse, I didn’t know you were on Twitter still?” Can everyone see my tweets? The algorithm clearly is not allowing my friends to see my page and vice versa.

When private investors buy up homes and control large swaths of residential housing in a market, consumers pay the price with higher home prices, higher rents, and more fees. I’m calling on the FTC to increase their oversight of these purchases to protect consumers.

@sfdb “mandate abortion” They’re not even making an effort. Mandating abortion would mean that no babies would be born.

U.S. Senator Tim Kaine once said.... “When you’re unwilling to describe something accurately, it betrays a weakness in your position." This explains recent DeSantis administration statements on Florida's Amendment 4.
