mouth on X, formerly known as Twitter. How long are we going to have to say that? He's got close

to a million followers there. He is an author, a comedian, a commentator, a regular barrel of laughs.

Tim Young, welcome back.

You can find him at Tim Runs His mouth on X. And you've been running it a lot and so many people enjoy it. You've got close to a million followers. What is the key to your success on Twitter, Tim? I have no idea. I, I, I, yeah, I don't know what the name of the thing is anymore either, honestly. And are we supposed to say tweet or post?

0:57.2

Or we're supposed to be post? Now we get generic. I don't know. Because do you do X on X? What do you do on it? Yeah, you post? I don't know. I don't know. And I wonder how long this is going to take to kind of like fully adapt to this new name. X.

2:11.7

and pedophile to minor attracted person, don't ever let them cover for crimes with words. I love this because,

2:28.8

But that notion of now we're calling illegal immigrants newcomers, what do you think that actually achieves for them?

2:36.2

It helps them get those voters quicker. I mean, I think that's the whole thing is we don't want to
