Political activists and "hobbyists" have poorly informed views of opponents. Tend to significantly overestimate the number of people who hold extreme views, often because of constant consumption of political entertainment on social media, talk radio, etc.

MARK GITENSTEIN goes WAY back with BIDEN, including serving as chief counsel of the @JudiciaryDems under Sen. Biden.
But Gitenstein's lobbying kept him from a top job in @TheJusticeDept under OBAMA.
He later became ambassador to Romania under Obama.

The documentary version of this, “More Than a Game,” featuring actual footage of a young @KingJames & his childhood friends/teammates, is quite touching, & very well done.

I signed a letter in June opposing a @nyguild dues increase proposal.
The guild made changes in response to the letter's concerns.
So I'm voting FOR the amended dues increase proposal.
My decision is despite — & not because of — false claims the letter signers were anti-union.

“You know, if you didn’t know the TV footage was a video from January the 6th, you would actually think it was a normal tourist visit.”
Sgt. Aquilino Gonell wiping away tears as he gives his opening statement at the January 6th Select Committee hearing.
He described a "prolonged & desperate struggle" w/ Trump supporters.
Gonell said he remembers thinking, "This is how I am going to die" defending the Capitol.

Can’t decide what’s better:
(1) the @TheCUTCH22’s walk-off 3-run HR for the @Phillies…
—or—
(2) the @Nationals TV announcers’ disappointed call of the HR:
“That is another gut-punch loss for the Nats.”

Closing arguments are getting underway today in a lawsuit brought by West Virginia localities against three major prescription drug distributors (including the one where the “pillbillies” video circulated) for helping to create & fuel the opioid crisis.
“PILLBILLIES”: As the opioid epidemic raged, employees at a drug distributor sent emails making fun of addicts, including a song about “Pillbillies” detailing a journey to Florida to get painkillers.
“Buy some pills. Take a load home.” the email ended.

JEFF RICCHETTI, the lobbyist brother of one of BIDEN's top aides, has said he will not lobby the @WhiteHouse Office.
But records show he lobbied another branch of the Executive Office of the President (National Security Counsel) for @GM on China issues.
