A whistleblower claims that if there are any threats to Trump in Ireland, the backup plan is to dress him up like a leprechaun and stick him on an Aer Lingus flight.

Since about 2017 I have been banned on Twitter for not removing 2 posts about Donald Trump's poor diet. Tonight I finally removed the posts which allowed me to immediately deactivate my account, which I did with gusto.

@mapquest.com can I use you to replace Google maps on android auto? I'd really like the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario to be named, you know, the way they are. I also want to start moving away from Google stuff as much as I practically can. (Apple is not an option, they're worse)

So far, and this is my final year, the scariest thing about law school is finding out Scalia was right (generally) about the 4th Amendment, at least when it comes to searches in the home. He's like a stopped 24-hour clock, he got one thing right

Saw an @apnews.com headline about the USMNT being "stagnant" for 25 years. Listen carefully: the USMNT will never go anywhere with a pay-to-play youth development! Our system does not get our best players, it gets the best players who can afford the time and resources to get through our system.

12 score and a decade ago our Forefathers brought forth on this continent a new nation conceived in the end of high prices. They replaced the con pet of liberty and the proposition that all men are created equal with the idea that some men should be owned. We have learned nothing since then. 1/3

Donald John Trump is such a weak, childish, coward, only concerned with optics that he has his name being removed off the Kennedy Center hidden from view. He is so weak and pathetic. I never understood why anyone saw him as anything but.

It is interesting to see all who have said, "if voting mattered, they wouldn't let you do it," pivot to "they won't let you vote, but here's why voting still doesn't matter" It's almost like they get what they want when they encourage people not to vote. Lesser of 2 evils is still evil, but less.

In an age of creeping relativism, a universal moral law still exists. Threatening to end an entire civilization of 90 million people in order to bend a nation’s conduct to your will is grossly morally wrong. It is evil. And we should say this loudly.
