On a cultural level that only Texans can truly understand, I don't think folks outside the state can really grasp how well James Talarico did tonight in the CNN town hall. It was a masterclass. He may have actually sealed the race tonight.

This thing looks WAY too large on this model. Why so big? And why are the pockets IN THE BACK??

This ad is . . . weird. I never go to Subway anyway—their sandwiches have only about 1/4 the amount of meat and cheese shown in their ads. I’m a Jersey Mike’s fan. Was even born in New Jersey.

I worked with—and deeply admired—Helen for almost 30 years. She was hands down *the best source* about emerging infectious diseases that I've ever known. My first warning of COVID was when on Dec 28, 2019 she reposted a ProMED mail report of an atypical pneumonia cluster: "This doesn't look good."

I think this is yet another Trumpian version of “the cruelty is the point.” He’s set her up: he knows Zacharia’s not equipped to do this job and he knows she’ll fail, temporarily taking media attention away from other awful and more serious Trump administration disasters.

I am so sorry to hear this. When I—a layperson—had a science question on Twitter during covid, she was so polite and thorough in her reply to me. She was always one of my very first go-tos for accurate, up-to-date info.

Ms Rachel from the top ropes
From Ms Rachel's account on Threads, she writes, "CORECIVIC, a company that makes hundreds of millions locking up KIDS in immigration detention
has a PAC that's sending campaign checks to Senator Susan Collins of Maine.
Susan Collins chairs the Senate committee that writes ICE's budget.
ICE is CoreCivic's customer.
The company gets paid out of a budget she controls, and it pays into her campaign."

I bet she would like it. I read all the time to my two girls, especially my oldest who never outgrew her love for bedtime stories. When she came home for visits from college, she’d still ask me to read to her. We still have her favorite books—I read them to her two little boys now ❤️.

BIG oopsie on the part of KS Sen. Roger Marshall to fail to distinguish between taxpayer money vs campaign dollars. Keeping the two separate is a basic rule that EVERYBODY (well, apparently not Sen Marshall) knows must be followed.

I am in Cap Haitien interviewing people deported from the United States. I have been doing this kind of work for almost a decade and it literally does not get more dire than this. People have lost everything they built in the U.S. and are terrified and have no place to go or way to live.

Evidence suggests cats have never understood personal space.

An ancient Egyptian stone carving depicts a figure lying flat on their back on a raised bed while a small cat sits directly on top of the person's upper chest and neck, staring down into their face.

Trump is a disgrace to the office and to humanity. He has ZERO respect for the military. He is grossly incompetent and unqualified to be our commander in chief. What an embarrassment. That lying, treasonous, corrupt, racist, pedophile deserves the 25th, but the REPUBLICANS are spineless cowards.
San Diego has one of the largest concentrations of US Navy and Marines Corps forces in the world and serves as a hub for the US Pacific Fleet. 

San Diego County is home to over 110,000 active duty military members and roughly 60,000 military children. 

It's home to more than 200,000 veterans and retirees.

"Let them take out San Diego. This is a small price to pay." ~ Donald J Trump
