Underrated, should be called Very Good Boy.

We just saw Good Boy, indie horror movie that took 3 years to make because it stars the director's untrained duck tolling retriever. It was great, and Indy the dog is my new favorite horror movie icon.

Texas is preparing emergency resources for wildfires and floods. The Texas National Guard should be THERE — not in Illinois.

We stand ready to support their return home so they are best positioned for helping Texans respond to any natural disasters.

Abbott activates emergency resources ahead of growing wildfire threat, flood risk in Texas

With expected growing wildfire danger across Texas and the potential for a flood risk this weekend, Gov. Greg Abbott is activating more state emergency response resources Friday.

In slow-walking of Ábrego García case, judge sees ploy to punish via detention

Ábrego García's attorneys say he's willing to be deported to Costa Rica. The government has ignored that request, instead floating the possibility of deporting him to a variety of African nations.

THE VOTE COUNTERS HAVE CHANGED HANDS-AND AMERICA SHOULD PAY ATTENTION

When a firm that counts votes gets sold behind closed doors, the price isn’t what matters. What’s being traded is confidence...and that’s the one currency a republic can’t print more of.

See? This is some of the passive aggressive bs BW have been telling y’all about for years.

At least she admitted the quiet part out loud…she’s envious.

NVM BW have been preparing our homes since the orange demon took office...we should feel ”lucky” for being prepared 🫠

I hate when people do shit like what you did here. Go yell at your family for not helping you and not strangers on the internet. Or maybe your family doesn't want to have anything to do with you BECAUSE YOU DO SHIT LIKE THIS.

Important piece by Prof. Kate Andrias. This is why treating SCOTUS as the only word on the Constitution gives away our power as citizens.

As I frequently say “we are founders and framers” of the next iteration of democracy in this country.
