Green milkweed (Asclepias viridis). Milkweed is essential for monarch butterflies as it's their only host plant. Look closely for spider vs bee.

They should call this disgraceful idea the Mel Gibson amendment.

Red flag laws save lives and keep dangerous weapons out of the wrong hands. But last week, the Texas Senate passed a bill that will arm abusers and put victims at risk. This shameful bill must be rejected.
Texas Senate passes bill banning governmental entities from enforcing red flag gun laws
Red flag laws allow judges to order a person's guns to be removed if they are found to be a threat to themselves or others.

Musk’s AI Grok calculates that Elon's DOGE cuts will kill at least 3.88 million people worldwide and 520,000 USians. #3E
Grok calculates that Elon's DOGE CUTS will KILL 3.88 Million people worldwide and 520,000 Americans. ーー DOGE claims they have cut $130 billion, this is less than the $170 billion in unpaid taxes that millionaires/billionaires evade EACH YEAR. Biden reinstated the Non-Filer Program to collect these evaded taxes but Trump immediately shut it down. There have been 25K millionaire/billionaire non-filers since 2017. The rich could save 4M lives if they just paid their taxes. Estimated Maximum Deaths Linked to DOGE Funding Cuts 1. Veterans Services: DOGE Cut: Reduced VA staff by tens of thousands, cut Veterans Crisis Line funding Impact: 2,000 (2025); 10,000 (decade) from suicides/health decline 2. AIDS Relief (Global): DOGE Cut: Slashed 90% of USAID contracts, targeting $4 billion in PEPFAR funds Impact: 200,000 (2025); 3 million (decade) from untreated HIV 3. Food Assistance: DOGE Cut: Eliminated $1 billion from USDA (TEFAP/LFPA), $4 billion from USAID food aid Impact: 11,000 (2025); 20,000 (decade) from starvation/malnutrition 4. Healthcare (Global): DOGE Cut: Axed $8.5 billion in USAID health programs (vaccines, maternal care) Impact: 15,000 (2025); 100,000 (decade) from disease/loss of care 5. Healthcare (U.S.): DOGE Cut: Cut 20,000 HHS jobs, $11 billion from state/local health budgets Impact: 5,000 (2025); 25,000 (decade) from reduced services 6. Environmental Protections: DOGE Cut: Slashed thousands of EPA jobs, rolled back regulations Impact: 1,000 (2025); 10,000 (decade) from pollution deaths 7. Homelessness Assistance: DOGE Cut: Reduced VA housing aid, impacted HUD-VASH for 35,000+ veterans Impact: 1,800 (2025); 18,000 (decade) from homelessness deaths 8. Pandemic Prevention: DOGE Cut: Cut $500 million USAID, $1 billion NIH/CDC pathogen research Impact: 15,000 (2025); 200,000 (decade) from outbreaks 9. Mental Health/Substance Abuse: DOGE Cut: Eliminated $300 million SAMHSA grants Impact: 7,000 (2025); 70,000 (decade) from overdoses/suicides 10. Cancer Research: DOGE Cut: Terminated S600 million NIH cancer grants Impact: 1,000 (2025); 15,000 (decade) from delayed treatments 11. Violence Prevention: DOGE Cut: Froze $50 million DOJ/DHS violence prevention grants Impact: 1,500 (2025); 15,000 (decade) from shootings/terrorism 12. Aviation Safety: DOGE Cut: Cut $200 million FAA budget, 1,000+ jobs Impact: 200 (2025); 2,000 (decade) from crashes 13. Social Security Access: DOGE Cut: Slashed $500 million SSA admin, ended phone services…

Oh, hell no.
Why an East Texas lawmaker wants to name I-35 through Austin after President Donald Trump
Austin is not exactly Trump country, so it naming a major, but troubled, highway through the city could send a mixed political signal.
