Loud laugher. Parent of a poorly trained dog and decently trained kids. Wife to one of the good ones. You’ll have to repeat that because I wasn’t listening.

That $38B is just on the buildings though, right? That doesn’t include the enormous costs it will take to retrofit those buildings. New plumbing, new utility infrastructure (inside and outside the property to city tie ins), new venting and hvac systems. The real cost will be vastly more expensive

Also cut off the stamen because their pollen can leave a mark on some surfaces.

In Texas, your birth certificate has to be a certified birth certificate. I had driven in Texas for 20 years when my renewal was rejected even though my marriage certificate from my change of name was on file and I was born in Texas and holding a copy of my birth certificate.

I was there. We are in Austin and lots of parents were concerned that Abbott would make an example of our kids. I was impressed with how the district handled it. The principal asked them not to do and told them about consequences. The AISD police then patrolled and protected them.

One of our kids walked out of school last week. I was moved when I saw the enormous group of students protesting. The kids are alright.

Seeing him at the bottom of the hill with his massive photography set up before her run was adorable. I’m loving this.

Election integrity is a DoJ issue. ICE isn’t an arm of the DoJ. This is not an issue within DHS or ICE’s purview

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

the sort of information environment where you wish the FAA was not run by a contestant on the Real World, the Department of Defense by a Fox and Friends drunk, and DHS by Corey Lewandowski

Also, El Paso is a huge trading hub out of Mexico. Hope you don’t need a car part on short notice.

This is one of those moments when you start to comprehend how big Texas is. El Paso is a large Texas city and is NO WHERE NEAR another city. Snow is expected across NM this weekend and next week. It’s 5.5 hrs from Lubbock. 4.5 from Midland. Juarez is the best call but the border takes forever.

You’re not nervous about the pressure of the moment if you are concentrating on deep breaths to keep from a panic attack about the height of the race platform. Brilliant strategy

These warehouses don’t have the utilities to support residential. Who will pay to upgrade the water and wastewater capacity? Are they subject to residential fire safety standards?

Imagine training your whole life, the physical extremes, the struggles, the sacrifices, to compete at this event and then getting sick while there. Of course these athletes are quarantining themselves and masking!
