Like the sign says —

You know how our legislature spent the entire session fretting over who uses which bathroom and calling ICE when they see someone who looks Hispanic?

That’s because this is not considered a problem in Texas.

Lawmakers in Texas largely failed to take any significant action to address the state’s skyrocketing rate of pregnancy-related deaths just months after researchers found it to be the highest in not only the U.S., but the developed world.

If Texas was a country, we’d be undeveloped.

Hey, when you practically eliminate access to abortion,  defund Planned Parenthood, and cut funding for Medicaid, what the fool tarnation do you expect?

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

As you’ve heard, Donald Trump put out some fake news this weekend because his attention span could not handle an entire sentence when they read it to him.

Okay, a horrible tragedy happens to our best friends and Donald Trump thinks the smart thing to do is to insult the Mayor of London.

Here’s what he should have tweeted …

“Do what I do — When the terrorist are about, hide somewhere and tweet and shout.”

Thanks to Rasty for the heads up.

EDITED:

Just seconds after I posted this, Trump tweeted.

Oh, I get it.  We can’t trust the video of the Mayor saying that his citizens should not be alarmed by the heavy police presence on the street because … well, look at his name!  Someone with that name has to like terrorist attacks.

Sometimes Fox News runs out of things to talk about because, like Trump, they have limited word and thinking skill, too.

So, now they’ve decided the latest liberal conspiracy is Wonder Woman. Why, you ask?  Because she’s not wearing a flag, I reply.  Oh but she is, you insist.  Nope, there’s not enough white in her costume, I tell you.  You sit in stunned silence because you simply don’t believe me that Fox News could possibly be concerned because there’s not enough white to make it really red, white, and blue.

Yeah, well, listen up.

Thanks to Rick for the heads up.

There’s one thing you need to know about hurricanes: They don’t mind well.

I’ve lived through several bigs ones in my life, Carla in 1961 comes to mind first because it hit us directly and the eye of the storm went over our house.  Hurricane Celia almost caused my wedding to be postponed.  Danielle, Alicia, Jerry, Allison, and Ike also come to mind at my house.  And Katrina.  I wasn’t in New Orleans but we helped take in the refugees in Houston.  I was assigned a small 87 year old woman who had been separated from her family and didn’t know where they were.

Hurricane season started last week.  I just want you to know that we are entering hurricane season with no director of FEMA because Donald Trump needs to play golf.  Even scarier, we have no NOAA Director, so we will be playing Roulette Landfall.

Trump meanwhile has made no move to appoint a new boss at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the agency in charge of the National Hurricane Center and the National Weather Service, which provide hurricane forecasts and hurricane warnings in advance of a storm.

Incidentally, NOAA Is predicting an above-average hurricane season this year. Trump’s proposed budget has targeted both agencies for cuts.

So, here’s my point, if we could get hurricanes to mind well, we could get it to go hit Mar-a-Loco and then stop.

But hurricanes don’t mind worth crap.

Thanks to everybody for the heads up.

Okay, here’s something I would have bet my favorite lasso that I’d never say:  I completely agree with Jennifer Rubin.

Rubin is the conservative columnist for the Washington Post.  This morning, she goes after Trump and his supporters with intent to barbeque.

(If you don’t have a Washington Post online subscription, you can probably read it here.)

I was going to pull out some of her best thoughts and put them here to encourage you to read the whole thing, but dammit, read the whole thing.

Also, thanks to Bryan for sending me this:

Y’all, I know that having a crazy president can make you crazy, but …

Am I the only person who thinks that Bannon was the source who leaked all the stuff about Jared?
