Spontaneously decided to show up at @KamalaHarris’s campaign office in Pennsylvania & knock doors. Think I may have gotten her one more vote. (🤞🏻) Worth it. Bonus: Met Ant-Man. Great guy. Pretty sure I’m an Avenger now. 🐜 🇺🇸 🙌🏻 #KamalaHarris2024

Turns out both Variteks are highly skilled at knowing what signals to give Curt Schilling.
Fuck you Curt Schilling, that wasn’t your place!

Been taking a nice, long break from politics, but I gotta say that there’s something terribly satisfying about coincidentally getting a tour of the Capitol from my son the congressional intern on the same day a bunch of racist scumbags got convicted of seditious conspiracy. 👍🏻🇺🇸

I think it's worth noting that @foofighters frontman Dave Grohl once provided me with his home phone number so I could call him for a pre-arranged interview ... and that is the only time I ever used it. Not once did I ever get drunk enough to call him and say "I love you, man."

Me, January 2022: “I’m gonna get in the best shape of my life!” Me, January 2023: “This Dunkin’ muffin has blueberries in it, which contain antioxidants. I’m basically working out right now.”

Am I the only one who feels compelled to leave on all the Christmas lights — indoors and out — all night long on Christmas Eve? 🎄

tl;dr: “I crave attention. The 51-seat majority gave me less of what I crave, so now I’ve found a new way to get it.”
In a natural extension of my service since I was first elected to Congress, I have joined the growing numbers of Arizonans who reject party politics by declaring my independence from the broken partisan system in Washington and formally registering as an Arizona Independent. 1/3

I’m mad at everyone for making me care about soccer.

Happy anniversary to this tweet, and congrats again to my Sis, @JamieBelsito, who has kicked ass this year in the Massachusetts State House. Can’t wait to see what you do next. 🙌🏻
Congratulations to my Sis, @JamieBelsito, on winning her election tonight. She’s the first Democrat to take this seat since 1858, and only the 221st woman ever to serve in the Massachusetts State House, where more than 22,000 men have served. So proud of you!

USA coach must follow me. I did it. You're welcome, everyone.
I wish one of the USA guys would kick the soccer ball into Iran’s net.

I have now watched two complete soccer games. They have both ended in a draw. My enthusiasm is dampened. This is not what Ted Lasso promised me.
