• Other than city council and school board elections this weekend, bonds were also on the ballot. After several failed attempts, Decatur ISD had there $137 million bond packaged passed.  In similar elections, Pilot Point ISD's $295 million bond and Sanger ISD's $68 million bond were voted down.

• Kid Rock flew to Virginia late last month and took a joy ride on an Apache helicopter with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Now we know why: It was all for a concert video which was shown for the first time in Dallas this weekend.  Video.
  
  
  
• The Business Second™.  There is no way this is going to happen.  
  
  
  
• Small sampling of Trump crazy stuff from the weekend:
