Random Tuesday Morning Thoughts




And the fact that she would became a voice for the conservative movement is almost as shocking.


  • Oh, my. In Haltom City yesterday. No serious injuries.

  • A guy jumped off a bridge onto Central Expressway in Dallas yesterday during rush hour traffic.

  • Isn't the CIA supposed to be a secretive instution by its very nature?

  • When this acting head of FEMA made his first address to the agency, I knew he was a goofball.  He proved it again yesterday. (He has since said he was just joking.)


  • Chart of number of social media posts made by Trump: First term vs. Second term.


  • The Business Second™. I'm already convinced.

  • Legislature quick hits
    • Judges got a 25% raise yesterday, with base pay increasing to $175,000. Wise County rep. Andy Hopper voted against it. 

    • It was never enforceable anyway.

    • A long term conservative House rep from North Texas has retired.  He now has time to dedicate to his fifth marriage


    • Will he or won't he? All eyes are on Gov. Abbott to see if he will veto the All-THC-Is-Illegal bill.   I think he might do it. 


  • Talk about a lawyer not wanting to go to court. (Gift link.)

  • Legal stuff: If you are a law enforcement officer, an example of how not to act on the witness stand was on display yesterday in the Karen Read retrial. Video.
  • I told you last week that college softball is fantastic, and the OU/Tech game last night is Exhibit A. Down to their last strike, OU homered to tie it up (video) only for Tech to win it at their next at bat. They now face the Evil Empire in the finals in a best of three series.
