Random Monday Morning Thoughts




And so it goes.


  • County Judge J.D. Clark gave us an online sneak peak of the courthouse renovation. This is on the third floor where the commissioners court will meet. 

  • I never heard an update on this.

  • "The firefighters suffered from smoke inhalation and over-exertion, but all were treated and released by Sunday morning." A little strange.



  • A 7,400 page document dump on a Sunday of a holiday weekend?

  • Something is a little fishy about this.

  • We have absolutely no details, but a boat crashed into a dock on Eagle Mountain Lake last night.

  • Video.


  • On Friday,  the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit struck down Trump's tariffs which he is imposing instead of Congress.  The decision is on hold.


  • Trump:
    • With rumors about his health over the weekend, Trump posted this QAnon craziness.

    • And in two posts, Trump vowed to end mail-in voting and voting machines for 2026. Get ready, we are about to have elections in name only. It's over.  

    • He threatened to send troops to Chicago. "We're coming."

  • Kristi Noem was speaking straight  from the authoritarian playbook on Sunday: Only the dear leader can save the country.

  • Gift link

  • The Business Second™: After a lull in warehouse building, they're back, baby!

  •  The Cowboys shouldn't even try to pull this off:

  • The Evil Empire fell to Ohio State but you wouldn't know it by the box score. And if I didn't know better, I would swear that Arch Manning has some injury. That performance was just weird.

  • THWMISB™.
