Tom Arnold: Mark Pomerantz is a brilliant attorney. Trump isn't president any more. He's a loser hanging out at his club, entertaining people. People are lying when they say Trump would have stopped Putin.
@TomArnold
Tom Arnold: I assume Putin is sick, that he's getting some kind of medical treatment besides the filler in his face. It's scary when that happens because he worries about his legacy.
@TomArnold
Tom Arnold: Joe Biden is taking so much crap. I personally think he's doing a great job. He kept all those people together in Europe. He really doesn't want to start WWIII.
@TomArnold
Tom Arnold: Camp del Corazon is a full year-round thing we do for kids with heart disease & congenital heart defects, incl summer camp for kids. For many of our kids, it's the first time they've slept away from home. It changes their lives.
@TomArnold
Check out Camp del Corazon's website for more info, especially about their fundraising gala on Apr 16.

@TomArnold
Rick: How'd you get involved in Camp del Corazon?
Tom Arnold: My friend's 17-yr old daughter contracted an infection that caused her organs to shut down; everything but her heart recovered. She was told about the camp & I was told they needed help fundraising.
@TomArnold
Tom Arnold: I turned 63 a couple of weeks ago. People ask if I'm worried about getting old & I say NO because I get to stop paying alimony when I turn 65! I can't wait! I get Medicare, stop paying alimony, & collect my SAG/AFTRA pension at the same time.
@TomArnold
Tom Arnold: I'm working on a documentary about the 23 women, incl a 15-yr old, who were victims of sexual assault and/or rape at Liberty University & whose cases were covered up.
@TomArnold
Tom:The funniest part of confirmation hearings was Lindsey Graham saying they wouldn't redo the Kavanaugh hearings & then they did. Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson didn't weep like Kavanaugh did. She's an amazing judge, an amazing human, & these guys just look ridiculous.
@TomArnold
Tom Arnold: The Republican cowards are waiting for Democrats to get rid of Trump for them. Trump is the most dangerous person in the world. Even common sense Repubs are laughing about Herschel Walker.
@TomArnold
Tom Arnold: Herschel Walker is going to collapse--he's done too many crazy things. He was a good athlete but that doesn't necessarily transfer well to politics.
@TomArnold
Tom Arnold: Boebert & Greene don't know anything & don't want to know anything; they just keep doing things on Twitter & misspelling words.

Rick: It's the 111th anniv. of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire.
Mary Anne Trasciatti: Some of the girls who died in that fire were as young as 13, 14 years old. We'll be dedicating a memorial on March 25th.
@MATrasciatti @NYUpress #RemembertheTriangleFire #TriangleFire
Mary Anne Trasciatti: The fire ladders only reached to the 6th floor; many workers on the 9th floor chose to jump to their deaths rather than burn to death.
@MATrasciatti @NYUpress #RemembertheTriangleFire #TriangleFire
Mary Anne Trasciatti: The struggle continues...always. No one should ever fall into the trap of "We fought for that and won."

Sarah Burris: I have never been so embarrassed for a party. Just when you thought the GOP couldn't get any worse... Remember when Kavanaugh said his confirmation hearing was the worst experience of his life? Really? Then he was lucky.
@SarahBurris @RawStory
Sarah Burris: GOP kept comparing Judge Jackson's confirmation hearing with those of Amy Coney Barrett & Kavanaugh. Amy Coney Barrett wears her religion on her sleeve; that's why questions concerning her religion were more relevant. Not so with Judge Jackson
@SarahBurris @RawStory
Sarah Burris: Lisa Murkowski won a write-in vote with a name like Murkowski. Do you know how long it must have taken to teach everyone to spell "Murkowski"?!

Liliana Calderon: It was dumb luck that I became a bricklayer--I was in the right place at the right time. I was doing service industry work & came across a group that helps women get into nontraditional jobs for women.
@IUBAC
Liliana Calderon: I did my apprenticeship & loved it; it's been a great path for me.
@IUBAC
Liliana Calderon: Some of my friends went to college & aren't working in the field they studied. I tell them to go into the trades--it's free training, I make good money, and at the end I'll get a pension. I was able to buy my own home, too.

Joe Trippi: One of the interesting things was the flight trackers who track flights from Moscow. The Russian oligarchs are fleeing to Dubai. Manafort tried to get to Dubai but his passport was invalid. It's pretty suspicious.
@JoeTrippi @ProjectLincoln
Joe Trippi: We've created a website where everyone can join to try to defeat the authoritarian movement in the U.S. There's no donation page or anything like that. It's open to all people, no matter political party, etc.
jointheunion.us/townhall/
@JoeTrippi @ProjectLincoln
Joe Trippi: People can sign up to volunteer in various capacities at JointheUnion.us. We've already had 50,000 Americans join, & we're hoping many more will join to defend our democracy.

John Rizzo: We've been bargaining for about a year with WTTW (TV) in Chicago. We've been working with them for about 50 years. Just before the pandemic, WTTW got a new leader & middle management was moved up to upper management, & things fell apart then.
@Window2workers @IBEW
John Rizzo: We gave WTTW a year's extension to allow their new CEO to get her feet under her. They eventually backed us into a corner & we had no option other than to strike.
@Window2workers @IBEW
John Rizzo: The problem is the company wants to take video & TV from outside the station, taking video from the public & from other TV stations.
Rick: They want freebies.
John: Absolutely. They're mooching off the goodwill of others to put on a TV show.

Rick: I can't get away from people complaining about the cost of gas.
Jessica Azulay: We are experiencing increased heating costs in our homes & buildings; we're hearing from so many people who can't afford their heating bills.
@agreenewyork
Jessica Azulay: It's so common sense to put solar panels on all the places we can. I have solar panels on my roof--it's like I bought a miniature power plant & installed it on my roof. The upfront costs are high so we need programs to help people with those.
@agreenewyork
Rick: We didn't get electricity or plumbing into people's homes by piecemeal--we had policies that required them. The same should be for solar panels w/ help for upfront costs.
