- The Washington Post revealed that the special counsel Robert Mueller is now investigating Trump personally as to whether he obstructed justice. There had been rumors that Trump was thinking of firing him. He can't do it now without a political firestorm.
- This is really interesting: The Post also obtained a copy late yesterday of the Republican "talking points" to deal with the new controversy. The two page document makes some very good points.

"Nice"? Don't say "nice"! Say "sad". - The Freshmen in the House had friends over to spend the night. That plus the existing Family Unit meant it was me and six females.

- Fox News quietly dropped their "Fair and Balanced" slogan last year.
- The Southern Baptist Convention refused to adopt a resolution condemning white supremacy and the alt-right on Tuesday. They decided it would be a good idea to do so yesterday.

- Twitter in a nutshell:
- Every question you had about these type of signs answered:
- According to the latest Texas Tribune poll, Texans love Trump by staggering numbers.
