There is no better feeling in the world than when your rescue dog - who was abused before you got her - wags at you when you approach.

@_jameshatfield_ I literally had two separate bankers tell me how pissed they were they couldn't grant me a HELOC because of CFPB rules (one even mentioned Liz Warren!). Not to brag, but I have an 820+ credit score, and enough assets to support a HELOC; they weren't *ALLOWED* to give me one!🫩

@marcuslemonis @FOXTV I have not seen the show. However, I greatly enjoyed The Profit (and the deeply underrated The Partner). Unclear (to me) when it debuts, but I will set my DVR. 🧐

I really need to go to the Philippines. This is magnificent. I want to be in a place where it is socially acceptable to be pounding my dinner, and then breaking into a power ballad. #Singing #Karaoke

The CFPB's motto may as well be "we want to protect you from your own choices." In starting my liquor business, its "we know what's good for you better than you do" rules prevented me from getting a HELOC. CFPB is a scourge on the markets and on entrepreneurship.

News: In Saturday night email obtained by RealClearPolitics, acting CFPB Director Russ Vought directs Consumer Financial Protection Bureau staff to issue no new rules, suspend effective dates of all final rules, and cease any new investigations:

@PhilipWegmann CFPB rules (per several bankers I spoke to) prevented me from getting a HELOC for my new liquor business because I had quit my job to start the business, and didn't have income... even though I was a perfect candidate for a HELOC before Liz Warren got into it.

@TigersBaseball2 @redsteeze @ArmandDoma @jonfavs SNL has better particle board sets which they toss out week to week. The only way that was $136K is if Kamala used conflict-free, sustainably sourced particle board, assembled by union craftsmen.

Hey, @Uber_Support - If I get charged $10 for cancelling my @Uber ride when the driver is close, shouldn't I get $10 for when the driver is fewer than 2 minutes away, and cancels on ME (I was cancelled on twice just now waited 10 extra minutes -- 5 before each cancellation).

@bendreyfuss Indeed, "great light" just means "brightness," not "view" or even "seeing the sun."

Did someone order a peacock?! (Welcome to my semi-annual mirror selfie!) I must thank @wswaaccess @fcindc for yet another dynamic @wswaaccess -- this time, in Denver. To close the ceremonies, I created a minor stir on the dance floor, with velvet from shoes (Photo 2) to blazer. One highlight: I was recognized! I was dancing, in full unabashed glory, when a guy approached me (I had been speaking with him earlier) and asked me if I were a @nationals fan, known as The Mayor (hat tip to my namers, the beer vendors, circa 2008!). I was, apparently, an absolute delight to his son years ago. To paraphrase Roy Orbison, "I just hope to be remembered!"

@Casewinter13 @redsteeze You don't understand how to frame political messaging. That's ok, but please leave my timeline. I don't have time.

@FactApparatchik @redsteeze I'm aware. I'm talking about MESSAGING. You don't MESSAGE with great nuance. You lay down a marker, a principle.
