The Washington Post is the paper which broke Watergate. It won a Pulitzer for coverage of January 6th. For the Washington Post to refuse to endorse a candidate because it fears retribution from Trump is an enormous flashing red sign that the country is on the brink of fascism.

So when Trump wrote that check to re-elect Kamala Harris in 2011, I bet he didn’t think she’d cash it in 2024! 😜

I'd just like to point out that, for 250 years, American presidents didn't need to ask for immunity.

But how THIS guy got away is equally important. Because an inmate serving a life sentence for child sexual assault isn’t working outside to “slip” away. He’s not a trusty. There was a huge security failure, hence TDCJ’s vague reference to *how* he left.

Quick question: how many TDCJ inmates need to escape before the Texas Board of Criminal Justice decides that *maybe* the agency needs new leadership at the top? It would appear current policies aren’t working if an inmate can “slip” away. Every. Single. Month.

Best moments from tonight’s #Astros game: Paul Wall playing in the bathrooms, made it JUST in time for free Hawaiian shirt night, father got hit by a ball in batting practice (but somehow didn’t catch it?!?) and British hubby got his first H-town jersey. Now we just need to win!

He provided the soundtrack to my childhood, via my Gulf Coast surfer dad who looked just like him. I hate the era’s over. “If he likes you he'll smile then he'll say Jimmy, some of it's magic, some of it's tragic But I had a good life all the way.”-He Went to Paris #JimmyBuffett

I know it’s a different AND a random thought but I need to get it out: I just think it’s a *little* dangerous that the “care” emoji and “laugh” emoji are RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER on Facebook. It’s only a matter of time before I laugh at someone’s funeral post. #Facebook #RIP
