Goodness sake.  Chick-fil-A decided to stop donating money to organizations that discriminate against gay people.

So the Texas leader of gay haters tweets —

Really, Gov?  Really?  I do not know a gay man on this planet who would try to kiss you so get over yourself.

My friend Pam just called me and told me to get myownself in gear because Gordon Sondland’s opening statement has been released and he’s not going under the damn bus for Donald Trump.

Pam says  —

“Let the church say amen.  Sondland is saying to Trump, ‘I gave you a million damn dollars for your inauguration and I ain’t saving your sorry ass again. No, sir. I’ve got more millions of dollars and I’m not spending it on lawyers so I can end up like Paul Manafort.’ Sondland ain’t just talking, he’s singing today. The Republicans were all late getting to the hearing because, Honey, they be on the phone to the White House.”

I better go turn on my teevee.

Icing on the top: Rick Perry better get his Oops! all lined up because that boy’s going to jail.

Going back in time to Oct 8th.

Be careful what you wish for.

Here’s the handwritten statement Trump made before he left for Texas.

Yep – that looks like a black Sharpie.

Sondland released his opening statement a few minutes ago AND he’s going to pin the who Ukrainegate thing on…wait for it…Trump and Giuliani.  MoJo is reading it live right now and it is ugly (and beautiful for us).

I do believe and I can hear ol’ Dandy Don Meredith singing out there somewhere.

Breaking News from Texas —-

It’s kinda crazy when that’s news.

UPDATE:  about an hour and a half later —-

So, I’m gonna suspect the rumors were about Chairman Lucio III.  I’m also gonna suspect he’s pissed off.

Look, maybe it’s just me, although I doubt it, but I think the Repuoicans attacking Vindman was just silly.

Why did you wear your full dress uniform?  Because I can and you can’t.  And here is my purple heart.  Remember when Trump took one an old veteran offered and said, “I’ve always wanted one of these.”  Remember that? That was weird.

Have you ever talked to Donald Trump?  No, but as the White House’s top Ukraine advisor, you’d think an intellectually curious president would want to talk to me, ya think?

Somebody smarter than I am just noticed that Trump has tweeted or re-tweeted 26 times since 9:00 am this morning.  I wish we had a president.

I have some good news for folks looking forward to a blue Texas.

Only 43 percent of Texas voters approve of the president’s overall job performance, according to a University of Texas-Tyler poll released Monday. 49 percent disapprove.

He’s supposed to be in Austin on Wednesday meeting with Apple CEO Tim Cook.  I doubt he’ll get a welcoming crowd.  It’s Austin – it’s royal blue.  With glitter, and a spotlight on it.
