I grew up in the South. Lee was an ancestor of mine. Other family members rode with Quantrill. I have pictures of my mom as an infant in the arms of freedmen my family had formerly owned. @NikkiHaley might not be a racist, but she most assuredly is a coward.

Nikki Haley defended not citing slavery as the cause of the Civil War during a campaign event in New Hampshire, saying that this was "a given" for people who grew up in the South: "To me, it was about freedom. It's bigger than slavery."

Attention, anyone who wants to wear a western (or really, any) hat. See that itty bitty bow? That goes in the back. You’re welcome, @elonmusk .

How long has my family been in Texas? Since it built this cabin in the 1830s.

The only thing that's going to stop Trump is a complete repudiation at the ballot box this November. Quit depending on anyone or anything else to save your country, your freedoms or your children's future. It's up to you. It always has been.

Just a normal Sunday at Global Vision Bible Church as right-wing pastor Greg Locke literally screams at his congregation "do not get vaccinated" while saying that only "crack-smoking, demon-possessed leftists" think Biden is the legitimate president.

Many years ago I said that when and if the Rangers ever won a World Series, there'd be an outpouring of pent-up emotion such as DFW has never seen. All those years of dashed hopes and flattened dreams, finally exorcised in a paroxysm of joy. Today, we are all 10 years old again.

The only person I ever met who could leave the bar at 9:45, nail his 10:25, and be back by 10:45. His seat didn't even have time to get cold, nor his beer warm. Larger than life, a good friend, and one less of the big-timers. via @wfaa

El Paso's violent crime rate is 333 per 100K. The violent crime rate in Seneca, South Carolina - where @LindseyGrahamSC lives - is 685 per 100k.

Lindsey Graham is fear mongering. El Paso is one of the safest cities in America. It’s NOT undocumented immigrants that perpetrate violence. The ELPaso Wal Mart shooter was a white young American citizen inspired by the racist Trump rhetoric Graham spews today.

Thanks to my many media colleagues who've privately told me since 2015 that they enjoy my comments, and appreciate someone who stands up to Trump, his cultists, and his lickspittle Republican Party. Now I have a question: What's it going to take for YOU to stand up?
