One of the saddest days of my National Park Service career was during a classroom visit when a surprise active shooter drill was held. A student helped me with their protocol. I asked her later if it scared her. She said “this is how it is for us, Ranger Doug.”

UPDATE: Governor Abbott just threatened to REMOVE THE TEXAS DEMS FROM THEIR SEATS if they don’t return by 3pm Monday (so Republicans can steal 5 seats in Congress using a special session about the flooding as cover) — and charge them with FELONIES.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has issued a statement saying he will seek to expel Dems who've left the state from office, adding that he would have the power to fill any vacancies that result.
He's also warning that Dems could face criminal prosecution under TX bribery laws. gov.texas.gov/news/post/go...
