Recovery account for @aubergenius because my backup device popped its clogs.

The rest is still true:

No DMs, please.
I stumbled into an episode of 'The Love Boat' from 1982.

To say 'it hasn't aged well' is an understatement. Were those really acceptance standards then?

I was mid-teens then, but seeing this reminded me of things long-forgotten. We have come a long way, baby, but still so very far to go.

Persist.

Length thread but hella interesting. Worth the read.

I am glad I came across this, as I've been wondering what is being hidden by the sudden surge of Epstein files. What scam are they running in the background? What are we missing?

Read on.
Now I asked Google Gemini to look at Epstein file dumps & every single trump investigation since the 90’s-present day and to paint me a picture of what it thinks.. part 1…

The Pats have been my team for 30 years. I've long had reservations about ownership (and the front office generally), but this clinches it for me.

Next Sunday, I'll be rooting for the Seahawks.

Monday, I'll have a serious think about my relationship with the NFL.
Go Seahawks!!

Indeed. We are working to restore our government to Constitutional order. We never should have been put in this position in the first place.
Those who define as insurgency the invasion of cities by Dementia Don's personal army of mercenaries are wrong. Insurgency is rebellion by a non-ruling group seeking to subvert or abolish their government. This is our government against us, trying to separate us from democracy and our way of life.

Not in any way important or relevant, just a foot-dragging moment of 'But I don't *want* to go outside and shovel!', before sucking up, suiting up, and heading out.

I'm 58. Can still be 12.

At least I get to play with OPE now.

Unpopular opinion:

I like Tony Romo in the booth. Sometimes he gets wound up and trips over himself, but I find his genuine enthusiasm charming.

Reporter: You received a letter from AG Pam Bondi making several demands….

Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those

To those blaming Walz for not mobilizing the Guard, he did that six days ago. I have to say it's disturbing to see people angry at Walz instead of the government agents that just executed a man. As though we should all be experts about what to do when a secret police force invades an American city.

Campaign finance reform is essential to driving corruption out of the government, starting with the repeal of Citizens United.
On the House floor tonight, @neguse.house.gov made the case to #EndCitizensUnited.

He knows the importance of putting power back in the hands of everyday people and we’re thankful for his leadership on one of the most pressing issues of our time.

Only Congress can levy tariffs, too. Why have they abdicated their responsibilities and abandoned their Oaths of Office?
