Old enough to remember when my being antiwar, pro-civil liberties would have made me a leftie. Power & wealth draw the worst people to lead us, from either team
@nhannahjones
I have never thought about the race or sex of my pilot, not once. I would be troubled, however, if I found out out that any less qualified pilots were being selected just to appease some racial quota agitators. Wouldn't you?
@nhannahjones
I was born with my rights. No one gave them to me, no one will take them from me. Similarly, I have wronged no one, owe reparations to no one. I wish no ill will to you or your people but you're barking up the wrong tree. History is filled with people who have been wronged
@7Veritas4
"Grateful" doesn't seem appropriate in this context. She has achieved a lot for herself and her team, but what has she done to earn my gratitude?
@maolesen
Imagine trying to demonize a mom, because she can add and subtract, and because she double checks her sources. Or imagine trying to excuse a mountain of willful mistakes, because you have "twenty years' experience"

It's gotta be tough to be Mark. You have to appear to be an Alpha, while carefully towing the approved line in every little thing. Whatever you do, you can't admit to being controlled; that could be fatal

@nycpix
It's a real "let them eat cake" moment to complain that (the citizens aren't as accepting of a high crime rate and governmental failure as would be convenient for you)
@boriquagato
If only we had locked down properly. It could have worked, if only we had been brave enough to close all of the food stores. And the hospitals
More than anything else, what will finally destroy us is breaking perceived connection between hard work, fair play & success. When enough people see their best opportunity to get ahead lies not in producing but in gaining influence or an aggrieved status, who could blame them?
@annbauerwriter
There have been so many crises in my life, Watergate, energy shortages, wars, scandals, AIDS, 9-11 and a thousand others. They all seemed so overwhelming at the time, right up until they weren't. We will survive this, and laugh, although maybe a little too maniacally

Turns out it worked exactly as well without refrigeration, you can even use it past the expiration date, WITH ZERO LOSS OF EFFICACY
@IsaiahLCarter
It has to be incredibly insulting to know that they consider you a captive demographic, incapable of personal priorities or concerns independent of your voting block, and have said so IN SO MANY WORDS
@BillKristol
As an American, I have the right to participate in a mob, to make myself heard. I didn't have the right to bash you on the head, but that's another matter.
Stop sending my money overseas to kill people who are no threat to me, stop making deals with foreign oligarchs
@annbauerwriter
We think we've come so far as a species, but we're still stuck with the same prehistoric brain. We're ruled by the same fears, prejudices & superstitions
Society can make electricity, fly thru space & transplant a heart, but most of us are mentally only 2 steps out from the mud
Society is ripe for tectonic shifts. There's no telling what could happen in next couple yrs. Baby boom, political realignments, economic reassortment. We're overdue
It will be horrifying & glorious, & afterwards everyone will understand how it couldn't have gone any other way
@LizWolfeReason
Am I the only one who's not shocked when leftists believe what they believe only when it suits their interests, just like small government capitalists and proxy war fans do?

We should never cede the point that restricting permanent life altering surgery to those old enough to consent is anything less than an obvious good

I don't think anyone will be able to prove conclusively that covid was created in the lab, but we certainly have proof that Fauci engaged in something he knew was wrong and encouraged others to help him lie in his cover-up
@MeghanMcCain
Quick. Name the last president who did not order people killed out of political convenience. We just dress it up a little nicer for some of our more sensitive citizens
Can anyone see this, and if so is there a warning on my tweets? Trying to figure out what is different now since I got this (engagement was always low)
@ThePaleH0rse2
I don't need to know anything about life in any communist country to observe the large number of people over my lifetime who have been killed trying to leave them
Without oil...we can't grow the food we need to feed the 8 billion people on this planet
...we can't move that food to where the special people in our country live
...we can't even build the machines we will need to power our world without oil
...we can't even "save democracy"
@MilenaAmit
@RepThomasMassie
That's very convenient. They're the only source of numbers, so we can discount them and continue to ignore a clear atrocity

@nycexpatmom
Why are billing mistakes never in my favor, and why do CDC mistakes never accidentally understate covid risk? I mean, NOT EVEN ONCE?
Seriously, we know who they are...
@mattyglesias
Where do you see that Elon is "proud" of antisemitism? I have seen him reference free speech many times, and I am old enough to know what that was supposed to mean
@ZaleskiLuke
@elonmusk
$8 from Elon is still a better deal than I get from the government, who charges me whatever they want, under penalty of jail, and allows me to have only the free speech that suits them
@JenniferNuzzo
On the other hand, "the greatest threat to peace and security in Europe since WW2" was planned, promoted and managed by people we DID elect. I'll take Elon over that any day...
@KelleyKga
@jamie_weisman
If what she thinks is true in any way, why does she need the CDC to tell her to be safe? I doubt she could protect herself any more than she must already be doing

We force Putin to take actions that are in his best interest, to ensure his survival, and then we complain when he does that which we have forced him to do"

@LibertyLockPod
If Indiana wants me to financially support it, or defend it when it picks a fight, or take advantage of me in some way, I would object, but if they just want to be left alone and stay separate, why should I care? Its like any other divorce
@annbauerwriter
Surely there has to be some line to decide what books are in the curriculum for young children. The only question is who gets to make the rule
@NEAToday
Can you point to a single trans youth that's been "harmed" in Florida? I don't need a name, but surely you can share a story, unless you realize that this is a completely made up narrative
Now that we got THAT out of the way, it's time to get ready for Wednesday and National Foot Fetish Respect Day. We can do this, America, "put your best foot forward"
@annbauerwriter
There are so many things that would be perfectly acceptable one on one, like real people, but much less so when done collectively, with an agenda
@ImpeachingTrump
@TheView
I remember the teachers. They insisted on being first in line for vaccination, insisted on getting federal funds for ventilation (which they didn't do) and then in the end, they still had to be forced to come back to work
