Any runners here who participated in Earthathon or NAFlagvisor teams on old Twitter 10 ish years ago? I was on team #uponeaglewings with @lutherangirl Michelle (captain), and NAFlagvisor SW. I miss that running community and hope to find some of you here. #running #runsky

The McKinney Historic Half last weekend brought me up to 22,033 lifetime miles since 1997. That leaves 2,868 left to 24,901. I plan to finish those at the Brooklyn Bridge. I started the last 3,114 at the Golden Gate Bridge. These 3,114 will be like crossing the US via The Black Hills, SD.

21,901 miles since 1997. Goal: Brooklyn Bridge by November 2028. Come with me, do the hard thing. “Leadership is a hard job, maybe the hardest job there is; but once you’ve chosen it, you have a moral obligation to be your best self.” Heart, mind, body & soul. #running

bsky.app/profile/mluc... Let me guess - American Exceptionalism?

Ever wonder why we don’t see Proud Boys, Patriot Front, 3 Percenters or Oath Keepers at ICE operations counterprotesting us… right wing militias and ICE in the same place at the same time? www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8P2foJG/

Life is running. Run to not from. 2 weeks ago I was able to run the Golden Gate Bridge and start the last 3,160 miles, equivalent to running to the Brooklyn Bridge. 3,119 to go. #uponeaglewings #tommyrayruns #running #run

Pete Hegseth, you want to know some lethal American warriors that were clean-shaven but whose lethality, courage & honor you can never touch? Crazy Horse, Quanah Parker, Yellow Wolf, He Dog. And the US soldiers at Wounded Knee brought death to encamped women & children & shame to the US military.

Hegseth probably slept through History class in high school when they taught about “war fighters,” but I don’t think facial hair impeded their lethality. I add one more - John Coffee (Jack) Hayes - the original uber Texas Ranger from the 1830’s & 40’s & leader of warriors that Pete will never be.

Trump says military should use “dangerous” US cities as “training grounds.” Hegseth says purpose of military is to intimidate, demoralize, hunt and kill the enemy. This last year Trump has stated that the greatest threat is “the enemy within.”

We are not a Christian nation, we are a pharisaical nation. Trump is not like King Cyrus, he is like King Nebuchadnezzar. He is not like David. David wrote half of the Psalms, Trump hasn’t even read them. God is not using Trump to save the Church, God is using him to punish the Church for idolatry.

God speaks to Donald John Trump.

Deal with the truth and the truth will set you free. My grandfathers’ grandfathers enslaved black Americans.

Republicans… common sense? Release the Epstein files.

Republicans, where is the common sense in that?

First 3 steps for Republicans to break free. Reclaim your independence. @adamkinzinger.substack.com @heathmayo.bsky.social @lizcheney.bsky.social @lincolnproject.us

Republicans, is this who you want to be? It’s not too late. Break away. Others of us already have. @adamkinzinger.substack.com @lizcheney.bsky.social @heathmayo.bsky.social @lincolnproject.us

Trump is fighting the Epstein files release as if he has everything to lose. Hmmm.

NEW AD: Trump wants this story to go away. But we’re still talking about Epstein. Because Americans want answers. Now airing on Fox News in Bedminster.

Trump no longer needs MAGA. Trump disavows his supporters who won’t stop asking questions about the Epstein files. He calls them weaklings and stupid. Says they were duped by Dems.

Trump says to trust him that he is not in the Epstein list/files. Musk says he is, but never mind that. @meidastouch.com @briantylercohen.bsky.social @adamkinzinger.substack.com @lizcheney.bsky.social @heathmayo.bsky.social

As an Independent - what I don’t believe. Release the Epstein files. @adamkinzinger.substack.com @lizcheney.bsky.social @principlesfirst.bsky.social

They’re eating the files, they’re eating the flight logs, they’re eating the list. 😉

MAGA, either Elon Musk lied or Pam Bondi & Kash Patel lied. Who do you believe? Do you care what they’re hiding? Or, is even this OK as long as it pisses off the liberals? And then you have the nerve to post the 10 Commandments in schools as if it is the children who need to hear it.

MAGA, think about it. It’s not that there isn’t an Epstein list, it’s that now Trump has it. Wonder what he’ll do with it? But also remember, that where there is this much depravity and corruption, there will also be a whistleblower. The real question is where are you?

Musk said he knew Trump was involved with Epstein. Musk said Trump would not release the Epstein files because it would be damming to Trump. Why is MAGA - the Republicans - silent? Why not release the files and let the chips fall where they may - Democrats & Republicans? Your hypocrisy is damming.

MAGA, you believe there’s no Epstein list? Musk said Trump was mixed up with Epstein. Fox edited out from their interview Trump’s waffling on whether or not he’d release the Epstein files. You know Trump was a good friend of Epstein. How far will you go for the man? Have you no other leaders?

I was a Republican. The Republican Party is dead. Break free. Let’s build something new together and bend history. TT, YouTube, @real_talk_with_tom @adamkinzinger.substack.com @lizcheney.bsky.social @heathmayo.bsky.social

Former Republican, now a Unity Independent, for the common good.

MAGA has two dads. They’re breaking up and now they’re fighting over custody of the kids.

The Republican Party is dead. The question is what will rise in its place? I was a Republican. I’m now a Unity Independent. I voted Dem in 2024.

As a Texas citizen, I am demanding that my US senators, John Cornyn and Ted Cruz, move to expel Senator Mike Lee for mocking the political assassination of a political opponent. @johncornyn @tedcruz

No Kings and the King of Kings. Christian Nationalists continue to miss who Jesus is… and Jesus said, “I never knew you.”

Texas Republicans force 10 Commandments on public school students, not the Beatitudes. Christian Nationalists choose the power of the majority over the love of Jesus.

Trump is a mocker. A petulant punk rampaging through his fantasy, enabled by sycophants and cynics. #pope #catholics

“If it’s bad, I say it’s fake.” If they oppose me, I say they’re paid. If I lose, I say it’s rigged. If I want it, I take it. “And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. ... Grab 'em by the p*$$y. You can do anything." And Republicans laughed or looked the other way.

If you don’t care about one man - Kilmer Abrego Garcia - will you care when it is us?

The Christian church in America is failing Christ & failing people. It has been seduced & needs to repent. The pdf link to “19 Corrections for the American Christian Church” is in my profile. The list of 19 is below. Help me “nail this to the door of the church.” We need salt & light in the church.

Not sure who wrote this but they are so right

I remember when we started outsourcing corporate jobs offshore. Never thought we’d outsource the Presidency and legislative branch… to South Africa, no less.

Canada would not be our 51 state- w/ 40M people & 13 provinces, it would be an additional 13 states, 26 Senators & 50 Reps - like represent our current 39M in AK, WA, ID, WY, MT, ND, SD, MN, WI, MI, VT, NH, ME. Of course, then we’d need to give reps to Wash. DC. Be careful what you ask for.

"You're not supposed to be asking that question ... that's enough" -- Trump gets mad at and shuts down a reporter who tries to ask him about reported clashes between Musk and Rubio

Watching Trump at SOTU is like watching a drunk driver with a car full of cheering passengers swerving all over the road, & his passengers think everyone else is getting off the road out of fear and respect for his skills.

Tonight, Donald created a new word - filibluster.

USA loses another war 🤦‍♂️

I stand with the new leader of the free world - the man who demonstrated for Congress’s Republicans how to stand on principle with integrity and courage, something we haven’t seen in years.

In 2016 I opposed Trump & voted for Marco. I trusted Marco. By ‘20 I wrote in my own name rather than vote for Trump. In ‘22 I voted for Dems for 1st time in my life - entire ticket. ‘24 I voted for Harris/Dems. Independent now & ashamed that I ever believed Marco was a man worthy of my trust & vote
