We'll Never Have Paris
Jonathan Adler, one of The Few, The Proud, the Green Right-wingers, describes a market-oriented agenda to grapple with climate change. He has a companion piece in the LA Times. This triggers a flashback to my post last August, when Politico and the NY Times were describing an emergence of Green ...

This is appalling: 9 Members of Mormon Family in Mexico Are Killed in Ambush Six children were among the victims in a massacre attributed to organized crime, relatives said. Other children were rescued, some of whom hid along a roadside.

HA!
Texas voters went to the polls on Tuesday to decide the fate of 10 constitutional amendments. The one receiving the most publicity was Proposition 4, which would ban the implementation of a statewide income tax. The official text of the proposition is: "THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT PROHIBITING THE IMPOSITION OF AN INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAX, INCLUDING A TAX ON AN INDIVIDUALS SHARE OF PARTNERSHIP AND UNINCORPORATED ASSOCIATION INCOME."
With 89% of counties reporting across the state on Tuesday nigh (9:49pm), 77.22% of Texas voters, voted for Prop. 4.

Here is the site for KY results tonight. Polls close at 6:00pm but KY is split by time zones so I wouldn't look for numbers until 7:00 pm EST.

Just for fun, here is whats happening at my Alma mater. With a name like Transylvania University what do you expect. One of the fun things is a raffle for students to spend the night in the crypt of Constantine Rafinesque (Google him)The building is Old Morrison which houses the crypt. It was built in the 1830's, and is featured on the Lexington, KY city seal.

How about Greg Abbott for 2024? When he was Texas AG he was asked what his job entails, Abbott says: "I go into the office in the morning, I sue Barack Obama, and then I go home." Also if you criticize him we can call you a bigot against the disabled. That would be a lot of fun.

This Sondland testimony doesn't sound as bad as the headline but its not helpful for Trump. And another brutal poll, this time from Gallup, showing a slim majority in favor of "Impeach/Remove". The increase is driven by Democrats and Independents, but still.
