TWEETS OF NOTE
(@mattdole) Donald Trump could say it's sunny outside, and a Democrat would introduce impeachment proceedings. There's nothing unusual about the left's derangement anymore. Tweet.
(@tatereeves) This seems like a good time to remind you that a black student in Mississippi is 2.5X more likely to read proficiently by 4th grade than if he or she lived in California. We would be happy to send one of our reading coaches to assist you, @GavinNewsom. Learning is a lifelong journey, and you might achieve some of the gains that our black fourth graders have. Incidentally, one nice feature of increased literacy is that you do not have to fall back on vulgarity to seem passionate. Let me know! Tweet.
