Family is everything / “Ignorance and its hand-maidens—prejudice, intolerance, suspicion of our fellow man—breed dictators and breed wars” Harry Truman
@s_webber Smart, hard working, respect for all, common sense — the patriot @s_webber I know. Can’t wait to help get him to Jeff City. No better person for Boone County. First thing? DONATE!!https://t.co/h4A6vauhta
Governor Abbott closed out his speech at the Texas GOP convention with a live elephant. It then peed on the floor as it left the room.
The perfect metaphor for the Texas Republican Party.
Michael McGreevy and José Fermín go to places they've never been in Busch Stadium. These players definitely watch what's going on in the stands. They know exactly what to say and do when they get to the Tarps Off section. #stlcards
On August 4th, voters will be asked to decide whether or not the state will replace its income tax with an everything tax. This is a great deal for the top 1% of earners but a bad deal for working families, seniors, and anyone in the state who works for a living.
Donald Trump ran for office for three reasons:
1) stay out of jail
2) exact revenge on his enemies
3) line his pockets
Everything else he says is bullshit.
This is GLORIOUS

A 10-year-old wrote MAGA Congresswoman Virginia Foxx for a school project.
He chose to write about an electric vehicle tax credit. Something he thought was good for the environment.
Virginia responded by attacking him and his teacher for being propagandized.
Her words: “your teacher will not be able to give you a good education as they are too interested in indoctrinating you... How sad.”
An 80-year-old woman. Attacking a 10-year-old. For doing his homework.
These people have power over your life.
After Jesse Watters of Fox complained about my story on Trump’s ridiculous reflecting pool project, I decided to do a fuller report on many of the ways Trump is ruining DC. CRY MORE @JesseBWatters ! 😂 cc @WashProbs
I’m going to be honest, the last 4 times I’ve filled up my gas tank, I thought about many things. None of those things were sharing a bathroom with a trans person, a mom buying soda with her SNAP or whether the guy in front of me in line was documented.

As we mark the 100th anniversary of the beloved Winnie-the-Pooh stories, The Queen has presented a very special gift to the New York Public Library, reuniting baby Roo with his friends from the 100 Acre Wood.
The Library is home to the original collection of toys owned by Christopher Robin Milne, son of A.A. Milne, which inspired the characters in the beloved Winnie-the-Pooh series. The collection is missing Roo, the baby kangaroo who was lost in an orchard in the 1930s.
The new addition of Roo was created by Shropshire-based company Merrythought, who also created the original toys.
👀 Watch Roo’s great adventure travelling from Buckingham Palace onboard Their Majesties’ flight to his new home in New York.
Standing ovation for this line from King Charles: The U.S. Supreme court historical society has calculated that Magna Carta is cited in at least 160 supreme court cases since 1789, not least as the foundation of the principle that executive power is subject to checks and balances.
