  1. CNN admits it (ouch): Even they couldn’t spin it — Trump’s D.C. takeover has dropped crime and spiked immigration arrests. Property crime down 19%. Violent crime down 17%. Robberies and car break-ins down 40%. Also, there has been ZERO homicides in D.C. over the last 11 days. Did you vote for this or what?

  2. Texas redraws the map: The new Texas congressional map is official — and it takes out Democrat Rep. Al Green, one of Trump’s loudest impeachment crusaders. After years of trying to boot Trump, it looks like Green’s the one getting fired.

That’s it for now — see ya later this week.
