I've enjoyed the Hunter Biden tweets, but I do find it a bit odd that within a few days of tweeting, a man who claims to be millions of dollars in debt randomly responded to a crypto bro with a single word tweet mentioning the most talked-about crypto platform this year.

Pitching your company as "DOGE for the private sector" would be like pitching your company as Theranos for cancer screenings.
Today we're announcing @Special and a new financing led by @a16z. Our DOGE teammates also invested: Human Capital, Steve Davis, Antonio Gracias, Anthony Armstrong, plus @brian_armstrong from Coinbase and @ssankar from Palantir. DOGE for the private sector is here.

This is Ken Paxton's mugshot. He was indicted on 3 felony counts for investment fraud. He was reported to the FBI by his own staff for bribery. He was impeached by his own party for corruption. Now he’s the Republican nominee for US Senate in Texas. Together we will stop him.

I want to thank Senator John Cornyn for his years representing our state.  We don’t agree on everything, but we both still believe in public service. To Senator Cornyn’s supporters: you have a place in our campaign.
