What is the point of paying analysts and announcers if you’re going to out mix them on the NATS?! Good grief, @netflix — go sit down while you think about what you’ve done.

Two days later, and I still don’t have the words to describe how incredibly proud I am of @TirzaOrtiz_KTSM for accomplishing her goal of running the NYC Marathon. (Also, marathon spectating a specific runner is a mini marathon inside the marathon) #TeamTirza

E started his Junior year at @EastwoodHQ Monday. His hair gets longer as he gets older. I’m just glad he still enjoys taking a photo for me in the same spot every year. He said I can still drive him next year for his last pic, even though he’ll be driving himself. 😭💙💛

NEW: Kerrville didn't have weather sirens used by other cities; Kerr County had asked for $ for new flood warning system since 2018; online warnings may not have been seen b/c Camp Mystic banned cell phones/smart watches/iPads. My latest with @hueyjayd: https://t.co/sZOvFf6YlY

Outdoor weather alert systems are not required by any federal or state law. The choice is left up to local leaders.

If you’ve never seen flood devastation firsthand, it’s hard to describe the magnitude of disaster. No camera could adequately convey the heartbreak. I covered the fires & floods in Ruidoso last year, which claimed 2 lives. I cannot fathom more than 3 dozen. Love to central Texas

After El Paso joined Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s border crackdown, Operation Lone Star, the number of dead migrants in the New Mexico desert surged https://t.co/aMDN1NAMXL

Since El Paso joined Operation Lone Star in 2022, migrant remains discovered in the desert west of the city have increased every year, even as they have declined in every other border sector.

So he’s going to the same team that drafted Colt McCoy, Johnny Manziel, and Baker Mayfield. Sounds like a great fit.
