Scoop: White House won't pay for Twitter verification

The Biden administration won't reimburse staff who purchase Twitter Blue on their personal social media accounts.

The number of Twitter tools announcing they will shutdown is astounding.

Melania Trump Seen Wearing “I Don’t Care” Jacket

Andy Borowitz jokes about Melania Trump wearing her infamous “I Don’t Care” jacket on the night of Donald Trump’s indictment.

The New Yorker

For over three decades, they’ve thrown everything they could at Hillary Clinton.

Lifted every rock, combed through every detail, made every insinuation, cast every doubt, muttered every cruelty, and outright lied about her as often as they breathed.

“Santos is testing the limits of what a congressman can get away with. That’s research the GOP can get behind.”

Killer line from Lindsay Beyerstein, writer for The Editorial Board newsletter

She continues…

“The core brand of the Republican Party is trolling, and attention is its only currency. The far-right likes that Santos is under federal, local and congressional investigation. He’s on the Science committee…”

Hillary Clinton's campaign was torpedoed based on years of breathless speculation that her server MIGHT contain classified information (it didn't)—only for the two men who held the presidency afterward to both improperly keep classified information.

Misogyny, boy, I don't know.

Hey everyone. Just wanted to eliminate the confusion and let you know that this is actually me. 😂 Hope you are having an awesome Thursday!
