Just a quick shout-out to the Hidalgo County judge and county commissioners for naming Hidalgo County Elections Department Assistant Director Hilda Salinas interim director following the Sept. 9 retirement of longtime Director Yvonne Ramon.
The investigation of Jan. 6th is fatally flawed. A committee totally selected by one party is simply not equipped to determine facts and weigh evidence when that evidence includes actions by a full spectrum of individuals. If the Republicans win a majority in either chamber in the upcoming election, therefore, they need to choose Republican committee members and permit Democrats to likewise select a reasonable number from the minority party in order to conduct a thorough and comprehensive investigation. There are important questions that still need to be answered.

The island of Lindisfarne is located just off the eastern coast of England, close to the border with Scotland. In the 7th century, a monastery was founded there. On June 8, 793, according to documented eyewitness accounts, “heathen men came and miserably destroyed God’s church on Lindisfarne, with plunder and slaughter.” This date is widely accepted among historians as the start of the Viking Age. It’s also the foundational storyline for the History Channel’s series from a few years ago, Vikings, which I’ve recently started to watch from the beginning (I caught a few episodes while recuperating from knee replacement surgery back in 2014). Besides the beautiful cinematography and historical drama, I find the competing theologies of Christianity and the Nordic gods of this time period just fascinating!
