Please pause your day and watch this video of Bloomberg being endorsed by talking dogs.
Genuinely put out by the Bloomberg campaign. One says “I like Mike, I lick Mike’. 🤷‍♂️
It’s a response to this video of him shaking a dog by the mouth that did the rounds yesterday.
HT @jacobgreber for spotting. A reminder of the buckets of cash Bloomberg has to respond to even the mildest of quibbles (an embarrassing dog video).

I got to ask Pete Buttigieg about how his time at Oxford Uni influenced him recently.

As well as the usual stuff, he said something unexpected at the end - it helped him find faith...
1/
Religion plays a big part in Buttigieg’s pitch. His stump speech includes a riff on how Trump and his admin are betraying Christian values - help thy neighbour, turn the other cheek, do unto others how you’d like done unto you etc.
2/
He’s flagged it in debates. “The Republican Party likes to cloak itself in their language of religion,” he said in one. “We should call out hypocrisy when we see it”

It’s led to Trump taking a swipe. “Now all of a sudden he's become extremely religious,” he mocked recently.

Just been in the Senate chamber for the final legal arguments in Trump's trial before witnesses vote. Some bits from inside the room...
Joe Manchin gave Lisa Murkowski a huge bear hug when she entered, patting her on the back before they chatted. Two waverers on different sides [Dem + GOP] under immense pressure from their voters back home.
Mitch McConnell, GOP leader, sat back straight and fingers crossed for much of the final 2 hours.

Chuck Schumer, top Democrat, was slumped in his chair, head on his right hand for chunks of the debate.

There’s a decent chance Brexit will happen and Trump will be acquitted within a few hours of each other.
Brexit takes effect after 11pm GMT tomorrow

Trial session when votes expected begins 6pm GMT tomorrow
Would be just another of those strange Boris/Trump news symmetries.

They met the same day Supreme Court ruled prorogation was illegal and Dems announced impeachment.

The Jake Fromm 2019 thread begins right here.
Fromm's effective and efficient within structure. He showed that on his first TD of the year.
His best throw comes off a play-action with a deep post from the slot. Spot-on placement.

Need help from Twitter world — I found a lost dog running down the street. In Takoma, Washington DC. No name or number on the collar. Can he be ID’d by the rabies tag? Going to hold until noon when the shelters nearby open. In the meantime, please help me find the owner!
I made a makeshift collar. He’s got a strong drive to go — so I’m letting him lead me — maybe he knows where home is.
Spoke to Vetco — they’re contacting the owner and calling me back.

Watch this video and then I'll share the story
The man being beaten up is Mohd Sameer. As per the statement of his brother Akhlaq, Sameer went to a mosque in UP's Hapur for namaaz but people at the mosque caught him and locked him in a room on suspicion of mobile theft. They beat him up for more than a hour +
...They also recorded the incident on phone and circulated it, boasting how they thrashed a thief. The mob did not lodge any complaint against Sameer for alleged theft. When Sameer's brother expressed wish to file FIR against the mob, community put pressure on him to not do so

It’s #Monday, I’m boozing it up at a 4 seat bar, the #barkeep is a long pourer, and I’m all fucking set if I get something stuck between my teeth.👇🙃 #RandomThoughts #drinking #OutAndAbout
Shooting the shit with a friend, she’s proud to be doing well with her plants - unusual for her.

The key was a #video explaining the benefits of pruning.

She needs REASONS. She got them.

Apparently, pruning in a particular manner stimulates growth hormones.
#RandomThoughts
Of course, this led to me initiating a discussion about the #movie I just watched on Hulu, called “The German Doctor.”

The main character was Josef Mengele. #ThisHappened

People, this is why I’m known in my circles as “The Black Hole Of Conversation.” SMTH

Am I allowed to be outraged by this, or does that make me "antisemitic" ?

- Video of a Palestinian child being assaulted by Israeli police this morning.
By @syedakif17

Isreali goons dressed in uniforms violating basic human rights of Palestinians 24/7.

Constitution of Israel is based on Talmud where Goyims have no rights.

If a Zionist kill anyone, he's not to be punished, he's owns gentiles.
