For almost 250 years the men and women of the United States armed forces have prevailed against tyranny. Your example inspires Ukrainians today to fight back against Russian aggression. On behalf of all Ukrainians, Happy Veterans Day and thank you for your service.

In 7th grade, my friends and I convinced a large number of students to put the name “Heywood Jablome” in the school raffle and when the principal read the name in the gym, we all screamed for five straight minutes. Everyone got a detention. That’s how Twitter feels now.

As we start to see more misinformation on Twitter, remember there’s still a place where information has to be verified to be made public: local journalism. Have a hot take? Write a letter to the editor. Don’t seek the next thing. Let’s go back to the first thing.

For those unfamiliar with the way we operate in Texas, a county judge is sort of like the mayor of the county. Our current one has a history of awarding contracts to his big donors, who then drop the ball on things like vaccine distribution.

What an absolute child @billgravell is. And @blane_conklin has been living rent free in his head. This is how Williamson County is run, and it really hurts the people. Favors for his friends, bullying for the rest, leadership for no one. This seems newsworthy, @statesman.

Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), on Pelosi attack: "As we wait to hear more, every single American needs to be lowering the temperature. This is increasingly obvious: Disturbed individuals easily succumb to conspiracy theories and rage — the consequences are bloody and un-American"
