Thank you to everyone who took the time to talk with me and share what matters most to them. When I’m elected to the U.S. Senate, I’ll represent every Mississippian — whether you voted for me or not. That’s what the job is all about. #MississippiMatters

I expected this story to be along the lines of a @pearlriverflow.com invention but (also like a PRF story) turns out to be not invented, but actual! 🥳

Westerns & the Old West@davidlambertart.bsky.social

One of the lesser known outlaws of the Old West was Rufus Nephew, aka Climax Jim. That's unfortunate because the man's life was a never ending series of crimes, arrests, acquittals, convictions & daring escapes. Here's a sampling of some of his very stupid adventures... 🧵

Cheesecake Factory is a long-running joke of gilded mediocrity. Even the lowliest of plebes can understand that Penny waiting tables at the CF underscores the juxtaposition of her being a “simpleton loser” against the “elitist,” college-educated, “not real doctors” male characters.

You can get amazing meals at any number of gas stations in the Deep South. You need an inside scoop, a personal guide, or the good luck of road trip gods to find the best spots (because they’re not in mall food courts), but man…when you do…You’ll never nap the same again.

Bernie Sanders: "I know conservative parents want to raise their kids to be honest, not to be bullies, not to lie and cheat all of the time. If we want to raise our kids to be honest, not to be narcissists who think the world revolves around them, then we need to hold Donald Trump accountable."

I’m grateful to VP Kamala Harris and Congressman Bennie Thompson for joining me in the Delta for a healthcare roundtable, and to everyone in Clarksdale who welcomed us and shared their stories.

Access to healthcare matters. Making life more affordable matters. Our right to vote matters. Mississippi matters. Thank you to VP Kamala Harris for knowing just how much our state matters. When Mississippi succeeds, our nation succeeds. Let’s win big on November 3rd!

The Dispatch is my hometown newspaper, so this one hits a little different. They don’t make endorsements often and I know they don’t take that decision lightly. It means a lot to have the paper I grew up reading put their confidence in me and this movement we've built over the past year.

Too many of us white people not believing in reality is the entire problem. We have to collectively stop being relentlessly stupid and obstinate.

Doubling down on toxic hateful myths for generations instead of tossing them out and fostering healthy inclusive real culture in their own communities. Good chance it takes down the USA and possibly humanity. I used to think they thought wrestling was real. Now I see they don't believe in reality.

Argue with your mom and them about the split infinitive. Idgaf. I will defend my grammatical position on this instance of this “rule” if I am so compelled. You wouldn’t like me when I am compelled.

For far too long, folks have counted out Mississippi before we even had a chance to get started. But folks from the South know we got something to say! I believe in Mississippi and I know we're going to shock the nation on Election Day. Join the movement at ScottColom.com. #MississippiMatters
