RFKjr is proving to be a complete lunatic with his testimony at today's senate hearing. He's also demonstrating his uncontrollable rage when being challenged by knowledgeable and informed committee members.

I'm probably the last traveler to do this, but finally added air tags to my checked bags (skis and boots) for today's flight YYZ to YVR. Frankly, it's a relief to know it's already in the cargo hold. On my last #AirCanada flight in early March, the skis and boots took two extra days to arrive.

#AlinaHabba looks like #Keeley from the #TedLasso series, and she's about as qualified to be the US Attorney for the District of New Jersey.

So with the Canadian federal election set, expect to hear from a lot of political analysts. I will take it as a bad omen that this analyst seems to be fully equipped for a real battle... A bottle of booze, a beer and a box of matches. Let's get the fire started! #canada #election

Well that was a lot tighter than I thought it would be. What a way to finish! Go Canada!

"... And we look forward to beating our soon-to-be 51st state, Canada."
-- White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt on tonight's final 4 Nations Faceoff hockey game between Canada and US.
Like it's some kind of joke. Unbelievable.

Well, when you're an empty suit, it seems only (ill-)fitting that you'd consider the suit to be your "standout" distinction.

Well, good to know... he now seems to be appropriately equipped to do what he had suggested to someone else a few weeks ago when he said "Go F@CK yourself in the face"

Trump's middle-of-the-night diaper dump about the church service where he got a few gentle, but direct suggestions.
Hey Donny, when you say "Many were deposited from jails and mental institutions" do you mean kinda like the 200+ J6 criminals you freed from jail on Monday night?

According to a CNN report, Elon Musk's net worth has INCREASED by almost $190 billion since election day, to over $450 billion.
