Kyrsten Sinema single-handedly stopped Democrats from ending a tax break for hedge-fund managers and private equity executives.

Meanwhile, she received ~$1 million in donations from Wall Street.

Don’t be fooled: Sinema isn't “independent.” She's beholden to her donors.

@CaptBobbers @Andyn305 Note to self: do not block other instances without good cause.

That explains so much! Particularly why if I look at Local it’s almost all me.

It’s hard to find the girl of your dreams when you’re an insomniac.

What is the difference between Federated timeline and Local timeline? And “Home” if you’re using Toot!?

When I'm in charge, anybody who genuinely uses the phrase 'unskilled labour' to describe a job will have to do that job for 24 hours. The moment their performance slips below professional standards, the clock is reset.

Given how no skill is involved, this shouldn't be an issue

I ordered a chicken and an egg online.

I'll let you know.

A few more bits on Paul Whelan:

The Marine Corps released Whelan’s service record, showing that he was convicted in a 2008 court-martial on charges related to larceny.

He joined the Marine Reserves May 10, 1994, and was an administrative clerk and administrative chief. He rose to the rank of staff sergeant in December 2004 and was deployed in the war against Iraq for several months in 2004 and 2006.

How about this idea: Once Katie Hobbs is sworn in as AZ governor, Biden appoints Sinema to a cabinet position & then Governor Hobbs appoints a DEMOCRAT (Ruben Gallego, perhaps?) to fill out Sinema's term?

In late 2018, Trump released Abdul Ghani Baradar, one of the top leaders of the Taliban, along with 5000 other Taliban fighters, in exchange for... *checks notes*... nobody.

Paul Whelan was arrested in Russia in December 2018.

Donald Trump was president until January 20, 2021.

@marlenewells Depends on what you’ll use it for. I started with the series 0. This year I upgraded to the Ultra because when the weather cooperates, I swim laps for an hour. My series 5 needed to go back on the charger after that. I’m really happy with the Ultra.

🚨🚨🚨 WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. H*LL.

Please boost to get the word out and call your Senators and MOC tomorrow. This can't be ok.

@Bethany @jimstewartson One Religion. He believes (contrary to the constitution) that the US should be a Christian nation.

The DOJ getting frustrated with the Trump team over returning classified documents has asked a federal judge to hold them in contempt. I would think charging obstruction might be a better use of their time.
