My oldest son Harrison was a sweet, kind, gentle, giving, big-hearted soul. I love him so much, and it hurts so bad to let y’all know that he passed away unexpectedly this week. Please keep our family in your prayers.
Just asked my wife. She said being left to drown in a car like your uncle did to Mary Jo Kopechne is a bigger nightmare than being yelled at by Lindsey Graham.
Personally, I have a bigger problem with an elected official blithely talking about nuking his fellow Americans than my neighbor owning an AR-15. But YMMV.
@Rambobiggs
And it would be a short war my friend. The government has nukes. Too many of them. But they’re legit. I’m sure if we talked we could find common ground to protect our families and communities.
West Baltimore’s violent crime rate is approximately 3,500 per 100k people. The national violent crime rate is 394 per 100k.
It’s one of the most violent places in one of the country’s most violent and dangerous cities.
Trump's attack on Elijah Cummings this morning followed a Fox News segment an hour earlier in which a Maryland Republican strategist portrayed West Baltimore as a dirty, dangerous place where residents told her Cummings rarely visits
Just got the official word from the doc. All of Miss E’s tumors have actually shrunk compared to her last CT scan three months ago.
I’ll be back on this hellsite tomorrow but wanted to give y’all a quick update.

This guy was a six-time convict who somehow still managed to illegally possess guns and drugs. Can we stop this "banning stuff works to get rid of it" bullshit now? It's a myth.
I just watched at least 50 cops in Philadelphia struggle to stop a single active shooter on the news just now.
Can we stop this “good guys with a gun” bullshit now? It’s a myth.
Dehumanizing large groups of people is the demagogue's precursor to visiting violence and pain upon them. It makes it easier to destroy their families and much worse.
22 years ago today, the day before I turned 23, I married a 31-year old mother of two and became both a husband and dad.
Almost all of my friends and family thought I was crazy, but it was the best decision I’ve ever made.
Miss E update: just got the results of her latest CT scan back and the miracle continues. Tumors continue to shrink despite the fact that her last dose of the immunotherapy drug was back in February. Thank you so much for your support and prayers!

"People are going to have to start paying their fair share in taxes"
If you listen to the clip, he’s clearly telling a story and building to the point of Lincoln appointing Grant as Lt. General and head of Army of the Potomac, where he proceeded to take Lee on and win where other Union generals had failed. Y’all are such hacks.
I grew up in Montana, attended hunter's safety class, hunted with my dad, had multiple rifles in our house. No one in my family defends the idea that Americans have the need or right to buy military assault guns, capable of killing 9 people in 30 seconds.

Dad passed away this weekend, just a few weeks before he would have turned 92. Much more to say at some point soon, but for now let me just say thank you to all who kept him in their prayers in his final few weeks.
In the span of 90 seconds Biden managed to misrepresent his own position, refer to AR-15’s as AR-14’s, call semi-automatic rifles machine guns, and insult a voter who knows more about the issue than he does.
Who’s up for some good news? Miss E’s latest chemo drug is working! No new tumors in her lungs and the existing ones are slightly smaller after three rounds of chemo.
She and I are so grateful for every prayer and positive thought sent her way. Thank you!
Tomorrow Miss E goes for a CT scan to see if the chemo drug she’s been on for the past 9 weeks is doing any good. Tonight I’m gonna once again ask for your prayers.
After Pearl Harbor 1941, FDR refused suggestions to surround the White House with light tanks because it might look as if our democracy was under siege:
Miss E is *not* back to square one. The immunotherapy drugs are working! No new tumors and every existing tumor is smaller than they were six months ago! Thank you so much for your prayers and good thoughts.
@rosemcgowan
You didn't "freak out on those in power," you groveled to Iran's ayatollah while proclaiming you and every other American are "being held hostage by a terrorist regime."
Shooting the person who is trying to kill you or others is absolutely a solution to stopping the person who's trying to kill you.

I’ve seen this video everywhere, but you’re the one who taught me the black kid has white parents. And as stepfather to a biracial son and daughter, let me ask you a question: so fucking what?
Several ppl have sent me the “heartwarming” video of the two kids hugging. People have been trying to make this story go viral in order to create a “racial harmony” narrative. But this is just a Trojan horse to promote the white male adoptive PARENTS of the Blk child
Miss E got the results of her latest CT scan today, and I’m honestly floored. Despite not being able to take her immunotherapy drugs for the past three months, none of her tumors have grown!
We are so grateful for your continued prayers and support. Cheers, and

I think Ashton Kutcher just admitted to violating California law. Firearms transfers have to go through a federally licensed firearms dealer who performs a background check and holds the firearm for the mandatory 10-day waiting period.

This is our fifth Christmas with Miss E since her lung cancer diagnosis in September 2016. There is no better gift than to have her here, so thank you for all of your continued prayers, and we both wish you a Merry Christmas!
I try not to tweet when I'm angry, but this POS in New Zealand has me in a white-hot rage. My annoyance at AOC for trying to go after the NRA, or gun control groups for already politicizing this horror, is nothing compared to the volcanic fury I feel towards this sick fuck. 1/

CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360°" falsely claims that Virginia Democrat Governor Ralph Northam is a member of the Republican Party
Watch the Chyron at the bottom as they show the video of Northam.
CNN identifies him as "Gov. Ralph Northam (R) Virginia"
We just saw a guy in Vegas arrested for planning to firebomb a synagogue or gay nightclub. We just saw a mass stabbing in Los Angeles. In Nice, 82 people were killed by a guy with a truck in 2016.
We can't ban our way to safety. We have to deal with the individual.
We have no equivalent to the dark carnival that is a trump rally. This is not a thing on the left. We just argue about healthcare and climate and sometimes relitigate 2016 but we are not actually out of our minds.
Miss E update for all those interested: She & her doc are both in agreement to stay on her chemo drug rather than take a break. She’ll do 3 more rounds and have another scan of her lungs in late March/early April. Thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers!
Actually.. while the court has never specifically heard a case dealing with "assault weapons", the Court said in Heller "The
#2A
extends, prima facie, to all instruments that constitute bearable arms, even those that were not in existence at the time of the Founding."
"The 2nd amendment does not apply to AR-15s, it doesn't apply to assault-style weapons... that's a legal fact" -
@AriMelber
on our view of 2nd amendment being "defrauded" by special interests:
A concealed carry holder shot and killed a woman who was shooting at customers in a Tulsa shopping center parking lot on Friday night. Because she was stopped before she killed anyone, the national news media will ignore this story.
Another tragic deadly shooting in Texas. In a church. Where congregants had guns.
My prayers & condolences go to the White Settlement community members who have to endure this awful pain.

Thank you for all the wonderful responses to this. Miss E’s having a much better day today. Baking bread this morning, and I’m taking her to a salon here in a bit so we can both get a hot lather head shave. If she has to be bald, she’s gonna be stylin’.
#CancerSucks
If waiting in a line for three hours to vote is voter suppression, what do you call having to wait until March of 2021 to apply for your concealed carry license?
Miss E’s been feeling bad about her “bullshit baby fine combover hair,” so I shaved her head tonight before her chemo in the morning.

Update from Miss E: her lipase levels are back down, and she’s back on the chemo. Starts back on immunotherapy in four weeks.
Existing tumors did grow a little, but NO signs of new tumors or the cancer spreading beyond her lungs. 👍👍👍
Thanks for your prayers.

It’s time again to ask for your thoughts and your prayers. Miss E goes in for a CT scan tomorrow, and hopefully gets told she’s eligible for a new treatment.
She’s not been on any meds for about a month now. We’re both kinda freaked about what tomorrow might bring.
#FuckCancer
Just back from the doctors. The tumors in Miss E's lungs have grown, which we were expecting. There's one in particular that the doc is concerned about.
Miss E starts a new chemo/immunotherapy cocktail next week. She is still in the fight and is going to

My 18-year old son has two friends who graduated high school last year and are apprentice welders. Only training they had before being hired was in their high school vo-tech classes. They’re making $60k a year.

I really try not to curse on here but fuck every last person who tried to destroy the careers and lives of these midshipmen because they're addicted to the endorphin rush that comes from being a part of the angry mob.
So, tomorrow is Miss E’s CT scan. We got unexpected good news last time that the chemo is working and the tumors were shrinking. Would love to hear the same when we get the results on Friday. If you’re the praying kind, I’d appreciate a prayer for good mews. Thanks.

I know people are trying to use this as part of their argument to scrap the Electoral College, but to me it just looks like a really good reason to move the hell out of NYC and get yourself some personal space.
Miss E has her CT scan tomorrow. Won’t find out the results until next week, but any prayers for good results are appreciated.
She hasn’t had any treatment for the past 3 months, so we know the tumors will have grown. We’re hoping for no new ones and slow growth.
