Small Town Texas School District rejects naming school after local War hero
I guess a Congressional Medal of Honor recipient doesn't qualify for naming an Elementary School when the last name is Benavidez. I guess I wont be stopping around El Campo, Texas anymore for gas or food.

While Trump melts down
The Dow keeps dropping. Manufacturing sector activity is dropping. I think Trump knows that a manufacturing recession starting in the last part of his four year term and the impeachment stuff will overshadow his propaganda machine.
This article about trump made me smile

Just saw Boris Epshteyn on San Antonio Sinclair station
He (Russian born Republican) basically said that Trump needs to revoke the security clearance of all the people on his list and more. Now we have Faux News, AM hate radio and Sinclair. When are rich progressives going to start buying media companies and local TV stations? We continue to lose the media wars.
I know it is a long shot but Go Beto Go
We were handing out fliers at our little town today for Beto. He is coming on Thursday to speak in our little town.

America's white population shrinks for the first time - U.S. Census Bureau
The number of non-Hispanic white people in the United States decreased for the first time in the nation's history between 2015 and 2016, according to new figures released Thursday by the U.S. Census Bureau. The data show the nation's white population is aging rapidly, as Americans delay their decision to have a family and as the flow of foreign immigrants from European countries ebbs. At the same time, minority populations are growing much faster, hastening a demographic shift that has been decades in the making.
The average non-Hispanic white American is 43.5 years old, according to the new data. The average Hispanic American, by contrast, is 29.3 years old.....
As a white southern male, this makes me happy. Faux news base supply is shrinking. Keep it up trump

Could this be the largest audience

I feel really bad for Houston
We survived the eye of Harvey. It is was a blessing for us that it was slow moving as it weakened to a Cat 2 by the time the eye wall passed over our place early Saturday morning. We had more damage when the wind blew from the opposite direction after the eye passed by. It was weird to see all of the birds and seagulls stuck in the eye. We live just southwest of Victoria about 45 miles from the coast. Now the slow movement is a curse for Houston. I am glad I built the house the way that I did. The house was complete in 2001 and it has experienced two hurricane eye walls. We lucked out, I would not want to experience the Cat 4 winds that Rockport experienced. I hope this is the last one for a while. I expect to be without power for another week or two. I have a generator and my family is staying with us to have a some air conditioning and hot showers. Now it is Houston that is suffering.
