So folks at @espn are upset ND isn’t playing in a bowl game after weeks of folks politicking against the lack of conference affiliation, using them as a pawn for their CFB playoff selection show, having the ACC network play the UM/ND game on repeat for 48 hours during Conf Champ week BUT now it’s a bad look they don’t want to serve ESPN’s best interest by playing in an exhibition bowl game? Got it.
Congressman Garcia - who had previously filed to run for reelection - changes course in the last hour of the last day to file petitions to run, leaving his chief of staff as the only democratic candidate to file.

Major cheat code for life: build small pockets of doing nothing on purpose. The line at the store. Waiting for a meeting. Sitting in traffic. Those are chances to think. Most people bury them in their phone. Leave space. Just let your mind wander. Don’t numb the gaps, use them.
Good morning.

“You will hear me, as I have always done, I'm trying to turn the temperature down around here. I always do that. I've been very consistent. I'm the author of this document, the commitment to civility … first thing I did when I got here in Congress in January 2017 and the idea is that you treat one another with dignity and respect, and somebody who's arguing the other side of an issue is not your enemy. They're your fellow American, and you ought to regard them as such.”
I just saw the video. Absolutely stomach-churning.
There's no place for political violence in our country. Charlie Kirk is a husband and a father, whose mission is to educate young people on conservative values.
