Random Wednesday Morning Thoughts




I was curious what happened to him and found that Johnson County has great online records. It looks like he basically was mentally committed until the case was dismissed, finally, in 2022. 


  • I may be 100% wrong, but I now believe more than ever that the jury is going to acquit Trump in the ongoing criminal case. Bringing in Stormy Daniels to trash him is only going to create sympathy when it's already hard to get excited over the alleged crime of document falsification. I've got a really bad feeling about this. 

    • But Trump's lawyers are horrible. Despite the judge signaling that he didn't want the prosecution to go into the details of the Trump/Daniels sexual fling, the prosecution did just that. And then they let Stormy just ramble on with her answers. The judge finally had to do the defense lawyers' job for them. 



  • This is the same guy involved in the double sports car accident on Central. He might want to consider laying low for a bit.

  • The new mayor of Rhome sounds sensible per the Star-Telegram story.  If so, I'm going to miss the crazy council meetings. 

  • The Tarrant County DA showed up in the commissioners' court to defend his continued prosecution of the Crystal Mason for voter fraud after she had just been acquitted by the Fort Worth Court of Appeals. It went about as well as expected.


  • The guy who is gutting public schools, and who wants to gut them further with the implementation of school vouchers, wants teachers to think that he appreciates them. 

    • Speaking of, the megadonor involved in the Decatur ISD PAC from last year is doing big things in Princeton ISD. Thread.
  • This could explain a lot. 

  • Last night the judge in Florida finally killed any chance of the Trump documents case being tried this year. 

  • At the risk of going over-Trumpy today, let's see what's on his mind late last night with all the pressing matters going on in his life . . . .

    • It's craziness like that which might explain how a candidate who dropped out of the race months ago was able to steal 22% of the vote from him in the Republican primary in Indiana last night. 

  • I honestly had never heard of comedian Nikki Glaser before the Tom Brady roast this weekend, but that lady is funny.
