OKC’s Devon Tower - It’s hard to make out what symbol was displayed on the top. My initial thought was a thunderstorm cloud & rain (stormy weather last night and coming OKC Thunder NBA playoffs), but a friend suggested the OKC National Memorial Survivor Tree #thirtyyears #neverforget #okcbombing

I’ve lost track of how many colleagues and friends have shared this Valentine meme with me over the past couple of days - kudos to the unknown creator; you are appreciated more than you know. 💖

Not all heroes wear capes.
Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

As a fundraiser for Moore Love, our district’s philanthropic endeavor, the admin building had a Super Bowl snack competition. You could enter in categories of sweet, salty, or savory. I opted to go savory with a pineapple meatball concoction … and good gracious, I won the savory devision! 🤩

For Lunar New Year, I wore this wonderful East Asian inspired red-crowned crane bow tie. It was made a few years ago by a student in one Sarah Johnson’s Family & Consumer Science Classes at Southmoore High School.

Why didn’t anyone tell me to move Taipei up in my list of places to visit? I’d probably have come here sooner! - The views from atop Taipei 101 are amazing, even on a cloud covered day.
