Figured it made more sense to post this rather than update the earlier one:
UPDATE: Jesse was just found at a local Hospital! Thank you to everyone who shared to bring visibility to this. Our family greatly appreciates it ♥️ https://t.co/qMpjUhwySr

UPDATE: Jesse was just located!
— Doc (@witticus10) June 28, 2021
He is. He was found at a local Walgreens tearing up papers and was taken to the hospital.

Good news indeed!!!!

I got off the plane at midnight last night from visiting my fourteen year old autistic grandson. I’m not gonna’ blow sunshine up anyone’s tailpipe, his future scares me more than my past. Aut parents and grand-parents across the country quite likely unknowingly breathed a collective sigh of relief that could be felt by the more sensitive of our kind.

Thank you for the good news.

@Ten Bears: PSA time. There devices one can buy that allow location tracking. Very useful in situations like this.

Relieved and happy to hear this!

Aw, so glad for a good outcome. Poor Jesse, I hope he’s coping.

Good news! Now, please tell me that Mitch McConnell is lost and no one is looking for him.

Thank you for the good news.

Amen??
Patricia Kayden
Yay Jesse!!

I’m so glad and relieved. Thank you, Adam, for the first BOLO about Jesse, but more especially for this happy update.

I have an autistic grand-daughter who thinks everyone is her friend. Thank goodness. We were very worried for him and his family.

You’re my kind of people. I can tell.

The constructive power of social media. Refreshing.
Good to hear that Jesse is safe.
Adam L Silverman
@Villago Delenda Est: That would be Ted Cruz no one would be looking for.
Lobbyists would be looking for McConnell.

Good news!

Okay, I never have figured out how to link to tweets, but scoot you on over to Aaron Rupar’s Twitter feed and check out the clip he retweeted of DJTJ (Rupar’s comment is “Maybe it’s a bad idea to post every thought that rattles through your brain”). Junior is, I now believe, considerably more impaired than his daddy — and that’s saying a lot.
Adam L Silverman
@SiubhanDuinne: Here you go:
It’s sad that no one, not his “girlfriend”*, his siblings, his mother, and certainly not his father seem to care enough to get him any help.
* I think it is reasonable to conclude that if Trump’s SuperPAC and the RNC weren’t paying Kimberly Guilfoyle six figures a year, plus covering her healthcare and retirement, she wouldn’t give Jr. the time of day.

@SiubhanDuinne: Holy Cow ! I’ve watched a few of Jr’s clips, but I’ve never seen him that coked up. Til now.
Adam L Silverman
@MagdaInBlack: Don Jr., brought to you by Mike Lindell’s coke hoard…
MagdaInBlack
@Adam L Silverman: He does better ( but not much better) when he’s reading his cue cards of talking points from…….his handlers.

It is the end of the internet as we know it.

@Ten Bears: You spoke for me.
SiubhanDuinne
@MagdaInBlack:
inorite?
@Adam L Silverman:
Thanks. And yes, it’s easy enough to loathe him, but I can’t help feeling sorry for him. Anyone who does that much coke (or whatever he’s on) must be in the most excruciating psychological torment. I don’t think the g/f is going to intervene, though; I think she’s an active enabler.
I think I’ve made this observation before, but it’s striking me again: There’s no doubt in my mind that TFG is possibly one of the worst fathers ever to procreate. But the first Mrs DJT nominally raised the three oldest kids, and they’re all dreadful beyond imagining. Yet nobody mentions her as an influence in their lives. They just talk about Donald. This is true whether he’s being spoken of admiringly or critically. It’s like Ivana just … up and disappeared.

@Adam L Silverman: It’s all projection. All the things that Republicans say about Hunter Biden are happening in real time with this doofus.
Adam L Silverman
@SiubhanDuinne: I don’t feel sorry for him. He did this to himself. By all reported accounts he’d gotten himself clean and sober and well away from his father. He’d moved to one of the mountain resorts of Colorado and was working as a bartender. Until his dad sent someone – most likely one of his two hitters, either Schiller or Calamari – to tell him that if he didn’t quite, move back to Manhattan, and go to work for his father, he’d be cut off. He could have made his own way, but chose not to.
Adam L Silverman
@Mary G: Except unlike Hunter Biden whose father, stepmother, and family care enough to get him help when he stumbles, no one can be bothered to do so with Jr.
Dan B
Good to hear about Jesse. A hospital sounds like one of the better places for him to be after his family.
Now if we could get Jr. TFG to a hospital that might be a happier place for him. Someone speculated it could be Tramadol and Vivarin.
Joy in FL
I’m so glad Jesse Lewis is safe.

@Dan B: You sent me e-mails that I completely missed. I let you down and your friend. I am so sorry.

Isn’t that part of what the nanochips in the vaccine are for?

@Adam L Silverman:
How would those family members even be able to tell that jr. needed help, considering that they aren’t a whole lot mentally better than he is?
Ohio Mom
Hallelujah! So glad Jesse Lewis has been found and reunited with his family.
I won’t list all the dark places my imagination went.
SiubhanDuinne
@Adam L Silverman:
All true, AFAIK, every word. It doesn’t mean that he’s not in psychological agony, though. You can abhor and deplore someone’s choices and behaviours, and still feel sorry for the pain they’re in.
Adam L Silverman
@Ruckus: I do not know.
Ohio Mom
It’s not keeping me up at night but I wonder what’s up with Eric. He always seemed the most vulnerable of the five to me.
Baron is also out of sight these days but he has grandparents and Melania looking after him.

glad to hear Jesse is safe … yay! Finally a good use for twitter…

Jeez, what a relief.

@SiubhanDuinne: Yup, definitely daddy issues with Jr. but what did Ivana do or not do to protect her kids during the years after divorce.

That’s great news — very relieved to hear a happy resolution of this.

Thank God he was found.

A tumbrel ride is much too good for that evil man.
Not sure what’s going on here, but what is MIND why is that on my post

Also too: dammit.
