The Mainstream Media, the Left, and the Weak Woke RINOs are terrified. Now, it appears there may be over 80,000 illegal ballots cast in Arizona— a state we are told "Joe Biden won" by only 10K votes. It’s time to Decertify the electors in Arizona!

Eric Schmitt has no chance vs. Greitens and McCloskey unless he can get Gardner to indict him for something ASAP

She's been consistent, under oath, from the jump. He's been consistent in refusing to go under oath, from impeachment to campaign finance scandals to his ex-wife's child abuse allegations. So this isn't surprising.

We spent tonite w/ my old colleague @Scott_Rupp & his lovely family toasting his daughter's HS graduation. Some pols trashed me when I got sentenced to prison 12 yrs ago this summer. Others, even "friends," vanished. Scott offered to pay my mortgage so I wouldn't lose my home.

Booker is quite good in this clip, doing his best to stay composed while Meghan McCain interrupts constantly, fear-mongers, and - just for good measure - uses the word "semantically" incorrectly. Anyway, Don, I think we all know why she has a job on this show.

Inspired by Josh Hawley's call to masculinity, I'm heading down to Memphis today with 4 other guys for a Grizzlies-Timberwolves game. Very thankful my wife is allowing me to go

It's funny when people make moronic arguments (Dems are "importing" huge numbers of illegal aliens to win presidential elections), and then immediately disprove their own argument by noting the huge concentration of said immigrants in CA, which we'd easily win regardless. (1/2)

@chrislhayes one of the reasons the electoral college frustrates the left is that democrats import extremely large numbers of illegal aliens who, along with their voting-eligible children, tend to congregate in specific states, like California

My heart is full. #MOLeg just truly agreed to finally passed @MissouriApples1 's legislation creating a prison nursery that will keep (eligible) incarcerated moms & their babies together for the first 18 months of life, when they'll be able to walk out of prison together. (1/3)

Missouri. Densely populated, diverse, overwhelmingly Democratic major metros on the east and west coast. Rural, conservative, mostly white and Republican outside the big cities. Balance of industry - tech, ag, eds & meds. And 3 types of BBQ - STL sweet, KC tangy, SEMO dry-rub.

If by "fully exonerated" you mean 1) your ex-wife swore under oath you beat the crap out of your toddlers; 2) your ex-mistress swore under oath you beat the crap out of her; & 3) your ex-aides swore under oath you stole from your nonprofit; while you refused to testify, then yep!

Just finished "Any Given Tuesday". Having dated Lis for 4 yrs, I knew it'd be brilliant, biting, & captivating. What I didn't expect was a poignant story of self-actualization. Here's Lis, from the final moments of @PeteButtigieg 's roller-coaster campaign:
