Sometimes I feel like a #faker or #carpetbagger because of my adult-diagnosed #adhd. Like, I can recognize that I've had it all my life now, but I still feel like I am taking advantage of the support groundwork y'all laid for me back in the day. Also, I downplay my symptoms because I've seen folks who REALLY struggle
This was a lot of words to say #thanks. I had no idea i was struggling until I started hearing it from folks like you, and fortunately had resources I could use to find out.

Despite being #roasted alive yesterday, it wasn't such a bad day: 79 Democrats voted for Trump's #impeachment in the House, and we seem to have gotten rid of #carpetbagger #suburbanite #AndrewCuomo

This goddammed #goober needs to shut his pie hole about the #military and our #veterans. He singlehandedly held up critical #promotions to grandstand about #abortion; an issue he doesn't understand. He's also a #carpetbagger who doesn't even live in the state he represents. There are few people who need to sit the fuck down more than #TommyTuberville.

David McCormick is gearing up for a Senate run in Pennsylvania. But he lives in Connecticut
While #McCormick does own a home in Pittsburgh, a review of public records, real estate listings and footage from recent interviews indicates he still lives on #Connecticut’s “#Gold #Coast,” one of the densest concentrations of wealth in America.
The former hedge fund CEO rents a $16 million mansion in #Westport that features a 1,500-bottle wine cellar, an elevator and a “private waterfront resort” overlooking Long Island Sound.
The trappings of a wealthy enclave, well outside Pennsylvania, offer a jarring contrast with the political identity McCormick has sought to cultivate, which emphasizes his upbringing buck hunting, his Army service and his desire to serve the #Keystone state.
Whether voters care will be tested anew should McCormick formally launch a campaign to unseat three-term Democratic Sen. Bob #Casey in the 2024 election, which will help determine partisan control of the chamber.
Recent #Senate history suggests that even favorite sons can be stung when loose ties to home become a campaign issue.
