Here’s a novel idea. How about Texas voters come to their senses and sink Paxton’s and Abbott’s political careers. It’s long past time for Texans to vote in the best interest of Texas, not for grifters and sycophants who don’t give a shit about what helps or hurts their constituents. Wake up!

MS NOW

Even Terrell County Sheriff Thaddeus Cleveland, a longtime conservative Republican who spent 26 years in the Border Patrol, thinks the administration's plan makes little sense.

He told MS NOW he was frustrated that Abbott and Paxton aren't listening to local law enforcement. "The reason is they're all afraid of President Trump.

Because they know that if they go against him, then he'll lash out at them and possibly sink their political career," he said.

Trump’s proposed arch would break the physical and symbolical uniting of North and South intended by the layout of current monuments, according to a report by National Park Service. Trump disrupting unity…no surprise there.

One of the most obvious elements the report cited is that the arch would break alignment between the Lincoln Memorial, Memorial Bridge and Arlington House that was formerly Confederate Gen. Robert E.
Lee's home.

"The bridge alignment and associated ceremonial landscape were intended to physically and symbolically unite North and South through a coordinated monumental composition extending across the Potomac River," the report said.

There are some key questions that have not yet been answered. For example, the day after the administration announced the fund, Blanche unveiled an addendum of sorts, which said the Internal Revenue Service would no longer scrutinize past or present alleged tax irregularities surrounding the president, his family and his controversial businesses. The development, among other things, freed Trump from having to worry about a potential $100 million penalty.

Whether this arrangement remains intact as the White House backs off from the existence of the fund remains unclear.

"Michigan is not a finishing school for polite young men and women," he said in a statement. “They do not need sentimental, cloying nostalgia.
