In Hannibal, Thomas Harris’ sequel to The Silence of the Lambs, he titles a chapter, “Notable Occasions on the Calendar of Dread,” and that’s always stuck with me.
Somewhat unrelated, the 2026 Fiscal Session begins at noon today.

—and each time we dismiss it with a wave of the hand or chalk it up as behavior unique to him, we make it clear to our friends, enemies, children that such behavior is okay. (2/2)

Dumping @PBS programming is a massive mistake that will rob kids and families all across Arkansas of quality, educational programming.
What an absolute, embarrassing shame.

During the pandemic, @ArkansasPBS was an incredible resource and essential viewing for our young daughter, not yet in school at the time. Sesame Street, Wildcrats, Esme and Roy, Arthur, Elinor Wonders Why, Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood…. (2/3)

I cannot imagine not having PBS available. When I was a kid, we had two channels: AETN (as it was known at the time) and the local ABC affiliate. I grew up with Sesame Street, Electric Company, 321 Contact, Doctor Who, and more. (1/3)

The AP called TN-07 for Matt Van Epps, the Republican nominee. He is leading by 7.5% as the count winds down (98% reporting); his lead will inch up a tiny bit but roughly there. The GOP won the district by 22% in 2024.

Almost let this one get away: Happy birthday to my friend, former House colleague, one-time seatmate, and the guy who always knows what’s going on, the inimitable David Branscum.
