Trump says weather has delayed his flight from Texas to Oklahoma so he’s driving the presidential limo there instead. Trump: “‘The Beast’ is going faster than it has ever gone before. It won't be long.”
Trump: To the Great People of Oklahoma, stay tuned — I'll be there soon! There was a major weather delay, and the planes and helicopters were not able to land, so we're driving up from Texas. They wanted me to postpone the event, and I said,
"NO WAY, I'M GOING TO OKLAHOMA!" "The Beast" is going faster than it has ever gone before. It won't be long. I love you all! See you in a little while. President DONALD J. TRUMP

The ICE shooting that happened in North Austin today is absolutely horrific. Make no mistake, these so-called "agents" are terrorizing our cities and threatening the safety of our residents.
The ICE shooting that happened in North Austin today is absolutely horrific. Make no mistake, these so-called "agents" are terrorizing our cities and threatening the safety of our residents. 

I stand with those demanding a full independent investigation and immediate release of the body cam footage.  This blatant abuse of power must be stopped and those who do harm must be held accountable.

I pray for a speedy recovery for the man who was shot and injured and I'm grateful to the first responders who rendered aid.

The image is of a four panel comic.
In panel one, we see a man sitting at a restaurant table. He is sweating. He says "Y-you have beautiful eyes".
The second panel zooms in on the man's face. He says, "I'm sorry. I'm just so nervous."
In panel three we see that a biblically accurate angel is sitting on the other side of the table.
In panel four we zoom in on the angel's face, who says "BE NOT AFRAID".

The best part of being an artist is that you can just draw whatever dumb idea comes to your head at 1am
A scene parodying the Neon Genesis Evangelion scene of Asuka and her Eva unit getting pierced by the spear of longinus. In this scene, Linguini and Remy from Pixar's Ratatouille take the place of the EVA unit and Asuka respectively. Linguinis eye is pierced by a fork version of the spear and Remy is depicted in an inset where he is grabbing his eye and screaming like the anime. There are anime subtitles at the bottom that say "AHHHHHHHHH!"
