It's almost like the people at the DOJ know what they're doing better than Twitter riffraff, go figure.

Also: with players like "Cheese Bro" and "Patsy Baloney", I grow increasingly convinced we live in a work of fiction, where at a certain point the author got sick of trying to come up with plausible names. The author's barely even trying to make the story make sense.

Mr. Peters was broke six years ago, with less than $400 in his checking account after his contracting business slowed down. Then he responded to a help-wanted ad looking for workers to install solar panels, which were becoming more popular in Tulsa.

Today was supposed to be the first time a woman ascended to the military’s Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Instead, three of the eight seats on the #Pentagon’s board of most senior military members will be filled with interim officers for the first time in U.S. history due to Sen. Tommy #Tuberville’s blockade on #military promotions.
