A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things.

Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA) declared on the House floor last night that “those in political office show both ignorance and cowardice when they side with criminals.” Oh, and “May God bless our courageous law enforcement officers who put their lives on the line each and every day.”

Kudos to Ohio Chief Justice O’Connor. I hope she doesn’t have to hire security due to her honesty and integrity.

And more kudos to the 4 r’s in the Kansas legislature who would not vote to override the Gov’s veto. But how does it work that the legislature gets to vote on an override a second time today? I hope the 4 stick to their guns and don’t cave to threats and intimidation from their colleagues.

Manu Raju on Twitter: “Sen. Mitt Romney says he texted his niece — Ronna McDaniel, head of the RNC — to express his point of view condemning the censure resolution. Asked about the impact on the midterms, he said: “Anything that my party does that comes across as being stupid is not going to help us”” / Twitter

  • Trump’s aides are still looking for more documents to hand over, according to the National Archives.

Am I correct in remembering that they had to make him quit eating documents early in his term? If so, they aides might want to check the septic system. (Or the Depends pail.)

From The Intercept article regarding Amir’s shooting/murder:

a no-knock warrant, smashing their way into an apartment in the dead of night.

They had a key from the landlord.That’s actually worse because Amir may have had a second or two more to wake up had the police smashed their way in. Smashing a door in is very loud.
