Thanks for letting a politician crash your party @aclfestival!

This is not a photograph, and it's not an oil painting either. Believe it or not, every ripple in this was painted in watercolor...
It's called Vågskvalp, the Swedish word for the little waves that lap against a shore, and Anders Zorn painted it in 1887 in the Stockholm archipelago.
A woman stands at the edge of a jetty beside a boat, and everything around her is moving: the reflections, the ripples, the water knocking softly against the wood.
Years later, looking back on that summer, Zorn explained the whole painting in a single line: "Once again, it was the play of the water that drew me down to the jetty."

.@TVietor08: I just want to make sure that listeners know the story of Ken Paxton and a man named Adam Hoffman.
Adam Hoffman was an attorney in Waco, Texas. He was arrested in 2022 after being accused of repeatedly sexually abusing a young boy.
A grand jury indicted him on continuous sexual abuse of a young child.
It’s a first degree felony that can get you 25 years to life in prison. The local DA had to recuse himself for some reason, so Paxton’s office led the prosecution.…
Paxton’s office offered a plea deal down to two misdemeanors that originally proposed giving Hoffman one day in jail.
One day.
… Ken Paxton gave a Jeffrey Epstein style sweetheart deal to a child rapist and then let him back out on the streets without even requiring this guy to register as a sex offender.
@JonFavs: The Republican Party has nominated an attorney general who set a child rapist free after 29 days in prison.

Thanks to Trump’s Iran War, your gas now costs more than 4 Trump coins per gallon
The Trump administration has just released a Donald Trump $1 coin today.
This comes after a plan was scrapped to mint quarters honoring the abolition of slavery, women's suffrage, and the Civil Rights Movement.

Thomas Massie just dropped a bombshell on the House floor.
He named 14 Epstein co-conspirators.
And he’s demanding immediate prosecutions.
“Jes Staley.”
“Leon Black.”
“Les Wexner.”
“David Copperfield.”
“Lapo Elkann.”
“Tom Pritzker.”
“Glenn Dubin.”
“Frédéric Fekkai.”
“Edoardo Teodorani.”
“Jean-Luc Brunel, conveniently dead by suicide in prison.”
“Daniel Siad, recently discovered dead in Paris.”
“Ramsey Elkholy.”
“And Prince Andrew, who committed sex crimes in the United States too.”
“And women like Lesley Groff, not a victim, who conspired with Epstein to traffic other women.”
“We’ve introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act II to bring the fight to the state courts, accountability to the Department of Justice, and closure for survivors.”
“We want perpetrators of these crimes to be investigated and prosecuted.”

🚀🌌 Voyager 1 has left the Sun's protective bubble—the heliosphere—and is now traveling through interstellar space, over 25 billion km from Earth.
Launched in 1977, it's the most distant human-made object ever. Yet even after nearly 50 years, it isn't close to another star. At its current speed, reaching the nearest star system, Alpha Centauri, would take tens of thousands of years.
A humbling reminder of both human curiosity and the unimaginable scale of the universe. ✨
