People have a million reasons why they love calling Houston home. The opportunity, the culture, the affordability, the food.ย 

But weโ€™ve seen our share of struggles too. And now is our time to step up and make sure Houston is a great place to live for generations to come.

Telling people who couldn't afford to get to work that they won't get some Imaginary Bonus and will get no Severance when they retire is full Fascist and Psychotic. This comes from his most used business tactics throughout his whole life. Sleazebag.

Democrats need to hold the line and not give up. Republicans have to learn, that actions have consequences. 20 millions do not need to lose their healthcare!!!

HOLD THE DAMN LINE.

You don't have to tell us that "actually we should be pissed at the GOP."

The only BlueSky users who don't hate the GOPs guts are all in Congress.

And that's the entire problem with congressional Dems tbh.

Is Chuck Schumer really the guy we want leading the Senate if we retake it next year?

No reason for him to be in office other than to keep bailing out the GOP.

Dems should put together a "Thanksgiving" bill that aims to feed people, to care for the sick, and to treat immigrants with dignity.

Make the GOP vote against that right before Thanksgiving.

Pentagon readying thousands of Guard โ€˜reaction forcesโ€™ as U.S. mission widens The Defense Departmentโ€™s newly established โ€œquick reaction forceโ€ within the National Guard is being readied for civil unrest missions in U.S. cities.

No, Trump cannot send โ€œanyone he wantsโ€ into our cities.

Assembling a National Guard โ€œreaction forceโ€ of more than 20,000 troops across all 50 states โ€œcould corrode the militaryโ€™s core mission by turning U.S. troops into foot soldiers fighting the presidentโ€™s war of political grievance.โ€
