If you're interested in the U.S. Civil War, I published a collection of 77 poems by my great-great-grandfather - a soldier in the 21st Ohio Light Artillery. (The Lulu page is marked as "explicit material" for some grisly descriptions) lulu.com/search?adult_audien…+

Wait 'til you find out about the rapist who tried to overthrow the U.S. government after losing reelection and stole classified documents to hide in his bathroom. Oh, and he turns out to have been a Russian asset while serving as president... I don't think his name was Biden, tho

Will plead to 2 misdemeanors only. Hard to believe that he would have gotten such a sweet deal if his name wasn't Biden.

Oh, cool - a new* way to attack poor people by pretending to care about their well-being. *It's also not new.

Billions in taxpayer dollars are funding the obesity epidemic. That should end this year when we pass the Farm Bill. Read my latest op-ed in Newsweek with @RepMMM on what Congress should do to make SNAP a nutritious food program again. newsweek.com/billions-taxpay…

Billions in Taxpayer Dollars Are Funding the Obesity Epidemic. It Ends Now

I hope our colleagues negotiating the Farm Bill, the only opportunity to make major changes to the SNAP program, will decide to restrict unhealthy purchases.

Laura Loomer in 1949: I do not have long Polio, as the vaccine-addled Left would have you believe. I simply remarked that the quality of the sidewalks and floors these days make it impossible to walk anymore. Commie Harry Truman has ruined surfaces.

I do not have long COVID. According to the Left, if you don’t like going out and you have realized the quality of food in restaurants has decreased over the last 3 years and you don’t find a lot of things appetizing, they think you have long COVID. I know a lot of people who have noticed a decreased quality of food. Just this week it was announced the US will begin selling lab grown meat. I’m sure it doesn’t taste very good.

I would love to watch @SlacktivistFred and @electricalWSOP discuss this at length.

Thread: I work in an arcane field where the job requires specific technical knowledge, built on a ladder of understanding and breakthroughs going back over 100 years. It's not immunology but it's not nothing.

Judas Priest are a good example of why debating the willfully ignorant is a fool's errand. It's expensive and exhausting to have to disabuse people of patent bullshit they are attached to. You have to educate people who do not wish to learn and do not trust you.

...and we're going to work to make sure our children are taught about the painful history that required that grit, determination, and immense courage, where it came from, and how much further we have to go to change the hearts of the rest of the white Americans, right?
Senator John Cornyn
@JohnCornyn19 Jun 2023
Through grit, determination and immense courage, Black Americans and other marginalized communities have made immense gains, the hearts of countless white Americans have indeed changed and America is a far better and fairer place than it was in even the recent past.
