@Eric_Schmitt Eric’s campaign is long overdue to release a playlist; 22 #GreatestHits now await so that Schmitt’s #ShowMeState its AG’s dismal record can view for this 🚑 chaser’s unfit. Each song here I dedicate to Schmitt. 🎵 #mosen 🎶 @jeffroe #SchmittList @erictrump
@Eric_Schmitt @jeffroe @EricTrump To help brighten your day (if you’re blue), I’ve seen fit to add a sneak preview of Schmitt’s 22 tunes. Each one squarely lampoons the ineptitude of his sad crew. They’re listed in alphabet’s order; each tune makes this campaign grow shorter.

@Eric_Schmitt @jeffroe @EricTrump @AndrewLeppert @IvankaTrump @SoCoGOP 1/ AG Schmitt’s favorite ploy was named “sue.” While campaigning, it’s all he could do large donations (in cash) with false hope soon to stash for his failing run in ’22: the main ingredient Schmitt would need #RoyBlunt in the Senate to succeed.

Well that was fun! Some thoughts on my #Jeopardy experience, a thread:
I knew buzzing was key. Stuff I tried to be fast on the #Jeopardy signaling device:

-Buy/read/do everything in the Secrets of the Buzzer book
-Extra caffeine beforehand
-Going by the host’s voice; going by “the lights”
-Multiple grips
-Switch things up midgame

Didn’t matter lol
Thing is, I felt *incredibly* prepared. Huge thanks:

-@QPLNYC for the kids books
-@clairemcnear for writing a #Jeopardy book so good, I read it twice
-Flashcards

@Eric_Schmitt @_CAHuddleston @DLoesch @MoGov With just #200days left to go ’til
the primary, Eric’s #SchmittShow
little headway can make,
for this candidate’s fake
& his pro-COVID ”policies” blow.
But at least he has a full playlist
before August 2nd he’s dismissed.

@Eric_Schmitt @MoGov @RoyBlunt @tishaura 2/ Like Schmitt’s polling, #AutumnLeaves will fall. Medicine? He knows nothing at all. He wants people to chafe: keep #Missouri unsafe. Any recovery he’d forestall w/ more tirades against using masks. In publicity this AG basks.

Man, Jessica and Jonathan seem to be very good, but Matt's buzzer speed continues to be difficult to overcome. #Jeopardy
To further the point: there was only one incorrect response that round, and it was by Matt, and he's still up by more than $5000. #Jeopardy
Sony and Jeopardy corporate synergy, yay.

Mayim Bialik and Ken Jennings will host the remaining episodes of #Jeopardy for the rest of the year. The search for a final, permanent host is still ongoing. bit.ly/3zkw8TA
Bialik will take over hosting duties for the first few weeks, and then she and Jennings will trade off as their schedules allow. The two of them will tape enough episodes to get “Jeopardy” through the end of the year. bit.ly/3zkw8TA
The news comes after the hosting tenure of former “Jeopardy” executive producer Mike Richards, who was named host, then stepped down nine days later after insensitive comments he made resurfaced, along with two previous discrimination lawsuits. bit.ly/3zkw8TA

This week, Mike Richards is hosting the episodes of #Jeopardy he taped before stepping down.

@LATimesTVLloyd reflects on this tape-delayed twist in the saga, or in other words, "honeymoon photos printed the day after the divorce becomes final."
latimes.com/entertainment-…
Just last month, Richards was ousted from both his hosting and executive producer roles on the iconic game show amid a furor over his past offensive comments and alleged mistreatment of models on “The Price Is Right.”latimes.com/entertainment-…
Though, "controversy aside... it is fair to say that he brings nothing distinctive to the job, and impossible, and pointless, to say whether that might have changed in the fullness of time," writes @LATimesTVLloyd.

Awakening to the news here in 🇦🇺that #AlexTrebek has left the building

So glad to read it was peaceful with his family, to whom I send deep condolences

I'll post some memories of our interactions, because people asked me often what he was really like

Here's a pic, story below Image
That pic is from the "Jeopardy Wedding," where my friends Dan Melia and Dara Hellman wanted to get married on the #Jeopardy set

There's a short and very sweet clip here

Dan was the winner of the 1998 Tournament of Champions, where he beat me soundly, given he'd actually read all the books whose titles I'd merely memorised for the show

But we became good friends, and after a day of taping another tournament, years later, Dan & Dara had an idea

FBI trivia was on @Jeopardy tonight, but we're not stumped. The #ClueCrew visited the FBI to film prompts for the “FBI Headquarters” category, and now the #BuCrew is here to give you more facts. #TodayonJ.
J. Edgar Hoover became assistant director of the Bureau of Investigation, the #FBI's predecessor, in 1921. Attorney General Harlan Fiske Stone appointed Hoover acting director on May 10, 1924, and by year's end, Hoover became director. #TodayOnJ fbi.gov/history/direct…
The #FBI's #ArtifactoftheMonth in December 2016 was J. Edgar Hoover's fedora—a style of hat traditionally associated with the iconic G-man image. #TodayOnJ flickr.com/photos/fbi/308…
