I commented yesterday in El Jefe’s post about some of my African American girlfriends going gung-ho over supporting Mike Bloomberg for president.

It’s officially a thing now.

Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner is endorsing Mike Bloomberg for president, giving the former New York City mayor his biggest Texas endorsement yet as early voting is set to begin in just five days.

“We need a president who knows how cities run,” Turner said. “It’s why I’m proud to endorse Mike for president, and I look forward to sending him to Washington in November.”

Turner, an African American, is coming off a big election win in the mayor’s race.

Bloomberg is on the Texas ballot.  (See mine over to the right.)  The primary in Texas is on March 3rd, but early voting starts next week.

It’s a thing, y’all.

Thanks to our friend Larry in Colorado.

Note from Larry —

My wife said “If they can afford weed, they can afford a box of cookies” I’d make it a case of cookies.

Read All About It!

Attorney General William Barr has agreed to give testimony before the House Judiciary Committee next month amid growing questions over the administration’s alleged interference in the criminal case of a close ally of President Trump.

The Judiciary Committee has become concerned about Trump’s interference in the Stone case and why the hell Rudy Giuliani reports directly to Barr about Giuliani’s own private investigations.

Oh Lord, it’s Jim Jordan, Louie Gohmert, and Matt Gaetz – we’re all gonna die.

Democrats need to let Zoe Lufgren take over as chairman of the committee.  Jerry Nadler is a nice guy but he has way too much on his plate right now.

Bloomberg’s new ad.  This is how you beat Trump:

We’re getting to keep our grandbaby this weekend to try to lighten all the darkness in our hearts.

But, if you’re not ready for that, Texas is here to help.

Two Texas zoos are ready to help you with every passive-aggressive instinct you’ve ever had.

The San Antonio Zoo and the El Paso Zoo are both running campaigns through Valentine’s Day to dedicate a cockroach after an ex and have it fed to an animal.

The El Paso event is free, but donations are suggested, while San Antonio’s costs $5 per roach.

The best part? You don’t have to live in either city. Both zoos are offering the chance for people to see all the munching action on their social media streams.

If you’re feeling particularly in need of releasing some of your worst thoughts, you can name a rat after Mitch McConnell and have it feed to a snake named Donald Trump.  Okay, I’m lying about the snake being named Trump but you can have a pre-frozen defrosted rat fed to a snake for $25.

Their names (downer: first names only) will be posted on the zoo’s website.  But, you could email Ted Cruz and John Cornyn and have them look for their names.

This is just another friendly free service of your beauty salon.
