One nation in all of human history staked its existence on a single blazing truth: every soul enters this world crowned in God-given rights beyond the reach of any earthly power. 250 years later, America remains the boldest wager ever placed on human liberty. ❤️ 🤍 💙
25 years. A million memories. One extraordinary woman.
A quarter-century in, and I’m still in awe you said, “I do.”
You’re the heart of every chapter we’ve written—and the best pages are still ahead!
Ani l’dodi v’dodi li—I am my beloved’s & my beloved is mine. ❤️

Today the most consequential jurist in Texas history retires. The iconic Chief Justice @NathanLHecht built a sterling, 43-year judicial legacy. NLH = the GOAT, the best of us, a Mount Rushmore figure in the life & law of Texas. The Lone Star State owes him an unpayable debt. 🐐⚖️
Justice Sandra Day O’Connor graciously inscribed this sweet message to my newborn daughter. The Justice was born the same year as my mom & they passed in much the same way. What a trailblazing legacy—including championing the urgent cause of revitalizing civics education. 🇺🇸 ⚖️
5-year Twitter silence broken!
Jacob—the firstborn wee Willett—graduates HS tonight!

OTD 1863—
Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, declaring slaves in rebel states "then, thenceforward, and forever free."
“If my name ever goes into history,” he said, “it will be for this act.”
People of Earth—
In 2018, @JusticeWillett will never:
☐ give you up
☐ let you down
☐ run around
☐ desert you
☐ make you cry
☐ say goodbye
☐ tell a lie
☐ hurt you
This holiday, remember with gratitude America's peerless military.
Far from home & close to danger.
Separated from their family while safeguarding yours—and mine.
OTD 1941—
Churchill addressed a joint session of Congress, just after Pearl Harbor.
That night he had a heart attack at the White House, news his doctor kept secret, lest the war be lost. 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
