Hey Texas, weβve got to look out for each other. Right now our food banks need volunteers like never before. If you can help, head to https://t.co/HeT3xTAFuH to lend a hand.
We need everyone to join us tomorrow evening in El Paso as we celebrate our community. The country will be watching, and it falls on all of us to tell the true story about the border.

Diamonds & Pearls to @Duane_Tudahl for sending me a copy of his massive Prince book even though I'd already bought one. Go get it, maybe he'll send you one too. I was gonna regift to Nic Offer, but heβs got his own. @HarMarSuperstar, you need one?
I'll be playing a few songs, solo, at upcoming @BetoORourke Town Halls in Temple TX & San Antonio.
