Had been trying to leave the xitter for awhile. Tip: Just delete the app and close the tab. New Mexican. Former New Yorker (upstate variety). Into craft beer, truth, latin dancing (craft beer helps), decency. Software and science by day.

The best plan, the perfect plan. Or concept of a plan.

Or the endless whining about how the DOJ was targeting Trump and others. Yes, because they're criminals!

They did, too, until they were the ones doing it.

Funny how this guy can say 10,000 silly, idiotic, ridiculous things and never really pay any political price.

I think there was a time when most people ran for office to do a job involving helping people rather than constant 100% performative BS. Too bad so many Americans expect and even reward that now.

The Speaker of the House has firm views that Bad Bunny is a terrible pick for singing at the Super Bowl, but hasn't had time to watch the President's speech to our military leadership or form an opinion whether furloughed federal workers should be paid or Illinois' governor should be thrown in jail.

They might as well roll out a talking marshmallow to the podium.

Oh, and don't forget how Obama and Biden were such dividers. ๐Ÿ™„x1000

It was just ("just") ten years ago that things were fairly normal. Ten years to completely lose our way.

Post-decency and post-ethics, too. I suppose they're all related.

Im starting to think that maybe they were right, the character of the president does matter....

Trump and the GOP: inspiring us all to be the worst we can be.

Yep. When you base your vote on spite and what you hear on Fox News, well....

I seem to recall how the right was so angry about Biden's FEMA not helping a rural area (which I don't even think was true), but Trump blatantly being 100 times worse about it and eliminating FEMA entirely is fine.

They're such a joke, but hey, they look serious, so....

Dwelling on Biden's behavior, constantly, even though it was 1% of Trump's craziness, seemed to work for the right.

I don't think I've seen a more ridiculous "both sides" played.

Hard to believe this was the party that used to say "character matters". They've proven it by electing the worst possible people.

Ha, not for everyone. I can suggest a place to get a good beer then. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Welcome! Enjoy the perfect weather. If you're the type, head up towards the ski area and hiking trails to admire the leaves changing color.

Maybe this is a bit more than "breaking norms", NYT.

His crack about Bill just being a TV show host was pretty shocking but it rang true. Too bad Bill isn't humble enough to let it sink in.

If you're going to allow gross hypocrites like Mace on, at least do a better job of holding their feet to the fire.

Did they just laugh and laugh at their cleverness and righteousness for the rest of the show?

Wow, that reminds be if a place that was a combination of bookstore and craft beer bar. But I figured I wouldn't mention it because it's just a little town... But that town is Hudson, NY. Small world!
