I wonder why it was a "secret" relationship? Was the dude married? Or just afraid to claim his bedwench publically?

The smart move if you are going to have your whole government name on your Twitter account is to mass delete your old tweets on a steady schedule just in case you had sloppy Twitter fingers once or twice.

Why media people don't seem to understand this is crazy to me.

Why are people even on Twitter anymore?

Twitter is a great place to get information. Don't let the bedwenches scare you off from what is actually a dope platform and an absolute necessity in this age of internet censorship.

the asian eyes tweet is def a bad look. who even talks like that? might have gotten away w/ it otherwise.

Somebody who spent a significant amount of time with white people. I don't recall ever in my life being around anyone black who was making jokes about Asians. That's strictly white people humor, especially white males. She looks like she's half white too.

to be angry and find an echo chamber of people to be angry with.

and post memes.

R.I.P. to many future career plans due to old tweets. Personally I don’t even see the point especially if you don’t clean the page up

Because she was covering the Biden team and he was working on the Biden team (conflict of interest). He threatened a reporter because she was going to out them hence why he’s jobless now.

Twitter fukking up someone else career, example 28283838837433939
