This confuses me. You would naturally think he had used a phone growing up, and would retain some sort of body memory of talking into the receiver and holding the top part up against your ear.

I don’t mean this as a criticism, but Trump in the Oval Office press conference looks like he’s at the Dollar Store, all that gold decor attached by two-sided tape.

Marco Rubio says the goal of the war in Iran is now to return everything “back to the way it was” before Trump started the war. So after all that, the mission is apparently to undo the damage.

When Bad Things Happen to Bad People: an Owner's Manual.
1) It is okay to be glad when evil and hypocrisy are ever so slightly diminished

My personal husband Neal Allen, author of NYT’s bestseller Good Writing, is leading a five-day writing retreat in Montana in September, a few miles from Yellowstone, when the animals are starting their migrations—bison, elk, moose and even the occasional wolf. shapesoftruth.com/montana-re…

American treasures @NealFAllen and @AnneLamott are writers I love and trust. They make the world feel more intelligible and more humane. Here, they do that for the craft of writing itself. Check it out!
And just thank you Anne and Neal for always reminding us that clarity and kindness are still worthy aspirations!
My current husband @NealFAllen and I have written a book on writing for everyone who has been writing for a while, or wants to start writing a novel or memoir or anything at all. You can buy it at your local bookstore on March 17 but can pre-order at: goodwriting.app/the-book

NOW is the time for all good people to come to the aid of their country. April 5, 1:00 almost everywhere. It will be good to see masses of people back in the habit of protest. It will be peaceful, galvinizing, solemn and joyful. See you there, and spread the word.

Wow @MikeWaltz47. Good thing you're on the record saying that @PamBondi should prosecute this kind of thing.
Biden’s sitting National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan sent Top Secret messages to Hillary Clinton’s private account.
And what did DOJ do about it? Not a damn thing.
