Let’s call this program what it really is — Rodney Ellis’s modern-day version of patronage. This program will have no long-lasting effects to lift Harris County citizens out of poverty. This money should be spent on issues that will actually help improve Harris County residents’ lives, like providing additional resources to our county jail, instead of picking winners and losers. This is the right ruling and should remain.

Chernihiv. A rescue operation is underway following a Russian missile strike. There are people under the rubble. As of now, 20 people are reported to have been injured and ten killed. My condolences to their close ones. Unfortunately, the death toll may still rise. This would not have happened if Ukraine had received a sufficient number of air defense systems and if the world's determination to counter Russian terror had been sufficient. Terrorists can only destroy lives if they first intimidate those who can stop terror and save lives. Determination matters. Support matters. The Ukrainian determination is sufficient. There must be equally sufficient determination from our partners and, as a result, sufficient support.

We aren’t just watching Trump fall. We are watching the fault line of white privilege begin to slip, when money and preferential treatment can no longer evade the weight of the law. It only took 78 felonies, nearly shifting the US into an authoritarian state, diminished belief in facts & science, the slow merging of church & state, and the increased normalization of overt racism and bigotry to build up enough pressure to even form a fissure. GET HIM, FULTON COUNTY. GET HIM, FANI.
