His pattern these last 4 months is to rain hell on us over every weekend especially so if there’s a holiday. I don’t know how much more of this I can take. It’s an abusive relationship and Republicans are responsible for its continuation.

It was never just about schools, it was never just about libraries, and it isn't actually about the books. It's about finding a way to banish entire people, entire ideas, out of society, back into the closet or worse. www.chron.com/politics/art...
