My family β€œimmigrated” to Texas from US in 1844, 1 yr before it became a state. Texans still welcome immigrants today, from around the country & from around the world. The current govt does not accurately represent who we are or what we stand for.

You ever stop and think about CASABLANCA? You ever stop and think about "Welcome back to the fight, this time, I know our side will win?" You ever think about a bar full of people defiantly singing La Marseillaise, played by a soundstage full of Jewish refugees? You ever think about CASABLANCA??????

🚨🚨 Trump MURDERED an ICU nurse THEN called him a terrorist!

Alex Pretti saved lives for a living!!

Trump repaid this American citizen by pumping 10 BULLETS into him and is now lying about it

Anyone who supports this brutal lynching should be considered an accomplice and dealt with accordingly 🚨🚨

‼️‼️‼️ DO NOT FORGET!!! Renee Good did NOT deserve to have her brains blown out in front of her dog for not complying with armed vigilantes who were terrorizing HER community.

You simply arrest, fine and release.

YOU DO NOT MURDER!
ARREST ICE AGENT ROSS NOW ‼️‼️‼️

Hey, Don't Let 'Em Gaslight You. You're Right to Grieve This Way. Friend, I may not know you, but I’m pretty sure I know some things about you:

I hear the nagging question that careens inside your head, the one you ask yourself a few hundred times a day: β€œIs it me, or has a huge portion of this country lost its mind?”

It isn’t you...

You’re quite fine, and this is, of course, both good and terrible news because of what it says about you and about the place you find yourself.

The fact that you see how wrong this all is means your faculties are intact, your mind is fully right, and your heart is working properly...

It’s all confirmation that you still have a soul doing what souls are supposed to do: keep you deeply human in profoundly inhumane times.

Good Sunday morning, friends!

Hopefully you're able to take the day to rest, relax, and reset.

May you find joy in the smallest of things.

Have a day y'all, stay warm!

We have to stick together. We cannot take chances of blowing the midterms because of infighting. There is no perfect candidate. Get it together. Unify. Protest. Vote Blue. Do what you can & must do to fight authoritarian rule.
No Kings. Only democracy.
Stand up. Get loud. Fight.

I will continue to beat this drum: this is not about what happens on Election Day, but afterwards.

The key tell is her articulation of the core MAGA belief that the legitimacy of elections is entirely determined by the results: if they win, it’s legitimate; if they lose, it’s not.

Rep. Walkinshaw leaving today’s ICE hearing: β€œAll of this comes from Stephen Miller’s sick, twisted, deranged Great Replacement Theory.” He says when Dems have the majority they will subpoena Miller to testify: β€œIf he doesn’t he will end up in prison for contempt.” @pabloreports.bsky.social

GOP Sen Lummis says she’s changed her mind after the new Epstein revelations today: β€œInitially my reaction to all this was, I don’t care. I don’t see what the big deal is. But now I see what the big deal is. The members of Congress who were pushing this were not wrong!”

Well I’m from Texas & I have similar concerns. I liked James at 1st, but his vague, obviously rehearsed responses to pointed questions just don’t cut it. Lots of red flags. Jasmine has what it takes, the experience & the courage to stand up for Texans that have not been represented for YEARS!

Our country is in this mess because of an under educated populace. Ignorance isn’t a lack of intelligence. It’s a lack of knowledge. The way to course correct this downward spiral is through a strong public education system. School funding, competitive teacher pay, with science, math, liberal arts.

Abbott’s voucher scam sold out our kids and our neighborhood schools.

When I’m Governor I’ll end voucher giveaways and get back to basics.

It’s time to put 5.5 million Texas public school kids first.

There are no days off when you’re running for governor - but that’s because Texas deserves a leader who works as hard as Texans do.

A few shots of life on the road but we’re still moving - see you soon.
