  3. A quotation from Homer

    O prince, in early youth divinely wise,
    Born, the Ulysses of thy age to rise
    If to the son the father’s worth descends,
    O’er the wide wave success thy ways attends
    To tread the walks of death he stood prepared;
    And what he greatly thought, he nobly dared.
     
    [Τηλέμαχ᾽, οὐδ᾽ ὄπιθεν κακὸς ἔσσεαι οὐδ᾽ ἀνοήμων,
    εἰ δή τοι σοῦ πατρὸς ἐνέστακται μένος ἠύ,
    οἷος κεῖνος ἔην τελέσαι ἔργον τε ἔπος τε:
    οὔ τοι ἔπειθ᾽ ἁλίη ὁδὸς ἔσσεται οὐδ᾽ ἀτέλεστος.]

    Homer (fl. 7th-8th C. BC) Greek author
    The Odyssey [Ὀδύσσεια], Book 2, l. 271ff (2.271-274) (c. 700 BC) [tr. Pope (1725)]

  10. The episode was a rare glimpse into the private life & the public dealings of #Mellon, 81, a reclusive #heir & #RailroadMagnate who has recently turned himself into a #political force [presumably a #FauxNews consumer]. He has surprised even political insiders w/the size of his contributions this year, throwing $75M behind #Trump’s attempt to return to the WH & an additional $25M toward #RFKJr’s independent presidential run, making him both candidates’ single largest benefactor.

    #TimothyMellon, reclusive #heir to a storied fortune, is spending tens of millions to elect Trump. Precisely what he wants in return is one of many curiosities surrounding him.

  13. Cry me fucking river. A normal person would probably reevaluate their choices if their entire family publicly denounced them and their BS beliefs. But Bobby isn't a normal person. He's a #malignant #narcissist who views himself as the rightful #heir to American #royalty. He believes he's destined to rule the United States, and impose his delusional and objectively wrong beliefs on the whole of society. Every decision he makes proves that his ego is his primary motivator.
