- Story. (Surprise: We don't know much.)
- But that wasn't the only big news coming out of Van Zandt County last night: "The children who died were ages 3, 5, and 8." Good lord.
- What a mess. They allegedly took the cell phone of their deceased father from their stepmother's home. And for some reason bond was set at $100,000 -- a comically high amount.
- So what's the purpose of taking state tax dollars intended for a public school and forfeiting them to the federal government?
- "Investigators allege Willie Herndon stopped along Interstate 170, got out of his vehicle, and fired into Wilson's passing car. She was traveling to a Halloween event at the zoo." It sounds like it was a road rage incident. People are nuts.
- Let me tell you, that is one fantastic mask.
- I keep saying to keep an eye on this guy:

- Just when you think the grift can't be any more brazen. "Julio Herrera Velutini, a Venezuelan billionaire, really wanted a pardon. He got it not long after his daughter hired Alina Habba, a lawyer close to Trump, in a deal worth more than $50 million. Habba was also working at DOJ at the time." And the "deal" is to be general counsel for four years for a company that appears to exist in name only. New York Times gift link.
- War criminals. From the Wall Street Journal:
- He's told us that we can't let the communists and the socialists take over the country.
- I gave you a heads up yesterday:
- Special envoy Steve Witkoff just told Putin to his face and in front of the cameras: "[Y]ou are a humanitarian also, sir, and I salute that.”
