Russia is providing Iran intelligence to target U.S. forces. Not surprising. What IS surprising? Our response: easing oil sanctions on Russia.

Trump won Midland County by 60 points.
But our campaign showed up because we’re not writing off any voter.
It was standing room only.
I quoted this earlier being disappointed, but it appears the earliest internet archive for the public education entry is on Feb. 9th and doesn’t match this language, specifically it ends after just discussing Head Start. Maybe this is legit? But without a permalink it very well could be BS

This is Rodney Taylor, a disabled double amputee who’s been imprisoned by ICE for a year.
He was about to get new prosthetic legs when he was kidnapped… and they won’t let him have them.
His health is declining & there’s been almost no media coverage.
No protests. No noise.
It'd be a shame if CBS managed to entirely Streisand the interview Stephen Colbert did with James Talarico.

CBS pulling @jamestalarico.bsky.social’s interview from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is alarming and nothing short of censorship. Full breakdown on my Substack page (link below).

Proud to earn the endorsement of The Dallas Morning News, who called me “the most qualified candidate by far” for Lt. Governor. Their confidence in our vision for Texas means the world to our campaign. Together, we’re building a stronger future for all Texans. #Goodwin4Texas

Screenshot of a post by Team Talarico quoting James Talarico saying national media never ask him about housing or prescription drug costs, only about trans athletes. He argues billionaires are the real minority harming the country, while trans and undocumented people each make up about 1% of the population. Below is a photo of Talarico speaking on MSNBC with a Texas flag behind him.
This is their whole M.O. right here.

This keeps going until the question is answered. Journalists need to get back the respect of the people. Getting answers is a good place to start.

ICE took a severely disabled mans caregiver away, and it killed him.
Wael Tarabishi was dependent on his father to be his arms, his legs and his lungs.
His dad went for his regular immigration check in and never came home.
He’s rotting in a camp, and Wael died.
The cruelty is the point:
Screenshot of an X post from FactPost quoting Rep. Johnson questioning a proposal to require passports to register to vote, noting that many Americans do not have passports and asking whether the $150 passport fee would be waived to avoid creating an unreasonable poll tax. Below is a CNN screenshot showing a woman speaking remotely, with a banner reading: “DHS FUNDING TALKS AT A STANDSTILL AS DEADLINE APPROACHES.”
Thank you, Julie Johnson, for speaking out against the grotesquely misnamed SAVE act. We need you to keep fighting for us in the House.

NEW: “CBS Evening News” producer Alicia Hastey sends a bombshell farewell note:
Stories are “evaluated not just on their journalistic merit but on whether they conform to a shifting set of ideological expectations.”
A young man at our town hall asked if I was pushing class warfare.
I told him: “We already have class warfare in this country — billionaires are waging war on the rest of us.”
Thank you to the Houston Chronicle for their enthusiastic endorsement. I'm not sure I could put it better than: “Goodwin is ready — and her quiet, take-no-prisoners competence is a style that Texas hasn’t seen in years. ...Austin’s snakes won’t know what hit them.”

Still so disappointed by
@colinallredtx.bsky.social’s stunt yesterday. His House race must also be going poorly. A leader would contact James first to clarify/discuss, not immediately launch an attack. We need the seat so will support the primary winner; but TX deserves better than Johnson & Allred
Trump won this South Texas county.
But they showed up for Talarico 🔥
The R candidate has apparently conceded, so that's a flip folks. Probably a 30-point swing vs 2024 per The Downballot, could be 35 vs the 2022 election in the seat docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Having worked closely with Texas AFT to support our public schools, I’m proud of their endorsement for Lt. Governor. We must ensure students get the best education, teachers are paid fairly and treated with respect, and programs keep students engaged in learning. Thank you Texas AFT!

I'm proud to have the Progressive's endorsement. To me, being progressive means working towards policies that ensure hard-working Texans earn a living wage and can afford housing, education/training, healthcare, and childcare. We should always strive to make progress. That's progressive.

I appreciate the endorsement from the San Antonio Express editorial board!
Early voting starting Feb. 17 for the Democratic primaries. Endorsements from people who follow politics are important to understanding which candidates have what it takes to be effective in the general election.
