I’m really feeling left out. Everyone seems to have stories to share from Twitter about spam and troll follows. I never had one. What’s right with me?

IRS, ridiculously, said didn’t undertake required audit of Trump because “we were outgunned.” That might barely make sense if they had started and couldn’t finish, But they never started, although it was legally required, until the day Congress asked about it.

#Germany has returned 21 of ca. 5,000 precious & culturally significant artefacts, known as the #Benin Bronzes that were looted by the British from the kingdom of Benin 125 yrs ago. The Empire was one of the oldest, most powerful & highly developed states in West Africa (now southwest #Nigeria). However Benin culture hasn't been given proper recognition by western scholars.
Now it's time to respect a nation's heritage!

As Former Guy calls the leader of Ukraine a "Welfare Queen", it's a good time to consider the fact that between 2015-2020, Zelensky paid MORE in US income taxes ($0) than Trump (-$3.7m)

I think Amazon needs to work on Alexa’s discretion…
Because hearing, “Your inflatable sex doll has arrived” really ruined the surprise.
@jackyan Sounds like the eye drops for my cataract surgery. Where do they come up with the chutzpah to charge those prices to seniors?!

Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that Ukraine President Volodomyr Zelenskyy will be addressing a joint meeting of Congress at tonight 7:30 EST. This is going to be a speech for the history books.
@Ronnie You absolutely should! It’s like a Broadway show!
@NPR_USNews What percentage of botched executions were in #Alabama? Too many!

It’s been 13 years since we raised the federal minimum wage to $7.25 an hour. That’s the longest period without a raise in the history of the minimum wage. That is egregious.
@MaskedRacerX Thank you, my friend!
@Jkp That sucks.
@Jkp That’s the US system of healthcare.

OK, I'll send the Rainbow by Airmail tomorrow.
Might take a while due to all the strikes but, when it gets there, you'll know 😃
I expect a picture!
@pburke46 And it happens regularly. Two months ago I paid $190 for a colonoscopy prep.
I don’t know how people who are less fortunate than I am can stay healthy.
@Jkp Give me the rainbow. You can keep the dentist.
