I love that this might be the thing that tanks Paxton, and not the biblical divorce or letting a child rapist out early.

In Scripture, those who turn executions into public spectacles are not the heroes of the story. Think Nebuchadnezzar. Herod. Saul before his conversion. We follow the publicly executed Jesus, not the powers that executed him. —Rich Villodas

On the PBS News Hour David Brooks described Trump's approval ratings as a 'remorseless decline of losing independents' that looked like a ski slope. I've provided a visual representation of that decline from The New York Times.

“So many people came out to see me in Alabama last night. The Fire Marshall threatened to shut the rally down because we were so bigly over capacity. And I was told that there were over 300,000 outside, crying because they couldn’t get in to hear me. We could hear them all crying from inside. Sad.”

Sen. Eric Schmitt was so overzealous to try and get Jack Smith, a good and honest man who has done great work, that Schmitt embarrassed himself by accusing Smith of going to the wrong basketball game. You can't make this stuff up. And right wing media will pretend it never happened.
