That does upset me.

Pritzker: Neither Texas nor the FBI at the federal level has the authority to arrest these Texas Democrats
They’re welcome to visit to take in the great views and enjoy the incredible restaurants we have. But they won’t be taking anyone home with them, or out of the state.

Surround yourself with people who exude positivity. People who say things like “you can do it” and “I believe in you” and “it’s a nice jar I’m sure you’ll find something to put in it”
