The power of the American example. Something to think about this Presidents’ Day.

This is excellent news!! So well deserved and I know she’ll continue to be an incredible asset to the President and the White House team!

Of all the interviews I’ve seen since landing in Iowa, @marcadelman talking @KidUnity at the Biden event is the best! #getexcited

@TracesofTexas He is buried in Ivy Hill cemetery in my neighborhood in Alexandria, VA. People leave all sorts of little tributes on his grave.

A reminder that our nation’s very best are often the unelected who devote their careers to the service and defense of our Democracy.

@kelysuperficial @WordyMary @Ms_Cuppy A friend of mine had Safeway as a lobby client about 10 years ago and had to explain to them about all the “named” Safeways in DC. They had no idea! 🤣

@WordyMary 1000% he was so adorable!

Forever one of the best spots in Austin.

The Rolling Stones are in Austin to play a show tonight, so naturally Mick Jagger stopped at the iconic Broken Spoke last night to drink a beer.

Today @SSSASsaints community is joining for #SaintsGivingDay! It’s incredible to see the amount of hard work and resilience that our faculty, staff, and students have shown during this extraordinary year! One mission, one community, one day of giving. https://t.co/FNgbPEZuKY

Thoughtful piece on Rush from Peggy Noonan but for me the larger take away for us all is “if you have class and self-respect, you carry no one’s water. And you don’t follow the base; you respect them, tell them what you actually think, and take the blows. https://t.co/uryDKaqlGI

Was hoping for less depressing reviews in this week’s @WSJ than “ash heap of history”, “baptism by bloodbath”, and “the not-so eternal city”, nevertheless this one looks particularly fascinating! Adding to my never ending list of “next reads” #librarylove https://t.co/YKCNYV4NWj

“I’m a Texas Democrat, we’ve lost a few elections.” #ifeelseen #itsfunnybecauseitstrue

[Nicole Morrell @NicoleAlon]

I would have posted my appreciation for Peggy Noonan’s @WSJ opinion piece supporting sanity and Liz Cheney regardless of anything else but her continued nods to Margaret Chase Smith are beginning to feel like Easter eggs and I love it. https://t.co/GHnRuXa8xv

With the arrival of Major and Champ to the White House I’m reminded of one of my favorite letters from President George HW Bush admonishing WH staff for oversharing biscuits with his pup, Ranger. Memo shared by the fabulous @LettersOfNote, an enchanting account to follow!

[Letters of Note @LettersOfNote]

George Bush Sr's dog got so fat in 1992 that he (Bush) sent this memo to all White House staff.

“Will he have the force, judgement and toughness?”... “We’ll see. But it’s the right thing to want.” A great read by Peggy Noonan this morning @wsj America Emerges Disunited but Intact - WSJ https://t.co/hzCClWy4xr
