Another half marathon in the books! The Bridge of the Gods half marathon is super hilly, but they’ve got $3 beers afterwards. The next best thing to free beer is cheap beer. Also this was my 106th half marathon! #halfmarathon #halfmarathon106 #bridgeofthegods

One of my favorite things in this world is to be outside on a nice day with a drink in my hand, music playing in the background, and no schedule to follow.

The first rule in fighting tyranny is to never capitulate in advance. You broke that rule. You are not up to the moment as a leader.
My YES vote is *not* an endorsement of this deeply flawed CR.
My YES vote is 💯 about refusing to shut our government down.
I refuse to punish working families and plunge millions of Americans into chaos.
I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever vote to shut our government down.

I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore.

Having to fight Elon Musk at DOGE before we’ve even battled Trump feels like having to defeat the forces of Saruman first at Helm’s Deep.

And now I’m trying out Motorworks Brewing. This is a downtown Orlando location which means visiting on a weekday afternoon it’s mostly dead, however they have a nice and smokey Rauchbier on offer! #motorworksbrewing

I’ve been drinking beer all afternoon. Time for a break. This Old Fashioned at Jock Lindsay’s Hangar Bar in Disney Springs sounds like a nice change of pace. Vacation drinking! Also, for the unaware, Jock Lindsay is Indiana Jones pilot in Raiders #jocklindayshangarbar #vacationdrinking #oldfashioned
