• Texas AG Ken Paxton announced he will challenge Sen. John Cornyn. And we are a still a year away from the primaries. 
  
  
  
• Cornyn's team responded. This is going to be nasty.  And can you imagine the number of TV ads we will see? : 
  
  
  
• There is some video coming out from inside the club before and during it was happening.
  

  

  
  
  
  
• This was in the Tanglewood area on Overton Park Drive.
  
  
  
• Is Ronny Jackson moonlighting? "The experienced agent . . .  was cuffed last Monday after becoming irate when staff at the iconic Hotel Amigo refused to reopen the bar after hours."

• But he had to go into cartoon mode.
  
  
  
• And we had to have the obligatory North Korean-like worker take the mic to sing Trump's praises. 
  
  
  
• The Business Second™.  Someone need to check on the West Texas oil patch? The price of oil:
