Beto never stopped registering new voters and trying to mobilize TX Dems. Beto & Abrams in GA deserve a ton of credit for their years of hard work building the party so Gina & James could win.

Has anyone asked @GregAbbott_TX tonight if taking a payout of $12 million dollars to brutally force school vouchers on rural Texans two years ago is working out for him?

Gina Hinojosa, you done Ann Richards proud.
And you did it without big money.
You did it without national help!
No one was predicting this but me.

It was actually our 250th anniversary.
Not that you would know — you spent it with the British.
Paxton: On July 4th, we celebrated the 200th anniversary of our country.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
July 4 2026 marked the 250th anniversary of US independence not the 200th as claimed in the video. Multiple reports placed Paxton in London England that weekend with videos of the trip.

Opinion | After decades of single-party rule landed Texans with a crook in the attorney general’s office, it’s about time for a change. houstonchronicle.com/opinion…
Imagine closing *archives*
The administration is threatening access to historical and irreplaceable records, including closing down one facility in California that is home to countless photos and family heirlooms.
Congress must exercise its oversight power to save decades of regional and national history.

This is the first I've heard of this. Pass it on, please.
Hey y’all. WE NEED TO BE PAYING ATTENTION TO THE ALEXANDER BROTHERS CASE.
Tal, Oren and Alon Alexander are three Israeli-American brothers from a wealthy Miami family. Oren and Tal became powerhouse luxury real-estate brokers selling multimillion-dollar homes to celebrities and billionaires, and represented Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump in their $24 million Florida home purchase. While Alon worked in his family’s private-security business.
For over decades all 3 brothers used their status to recruit women through clubs, parties, dating apps and promoters, and lure them with luxury trips and exclusive events, THEN DRUG, ISOLATE and RAPE them, sometimes TOGETHER and with other men. More than 60 WOMEN have come forward saying they were raped by one or more of the brothers. ELEVEN women testified in court!
The evidence was fucking horrific: women drugged, incapacitated, restrained and raped. Multiple men and MINORS were involved. Jurors saw texts, emails, photographs and videos.
On March 9, 2026, a federal jury UNANIMOUSLY convicted ALL THREE on EVERY COUNT.
Seven months later, they still haven’t been sentenced.
Now their wealthy Jewish family has hired Alan Dershowitz, Jeffrey Epstein’s and Trump’s former lawyer. Dershowitz’s correspondence says his work includes exploring “executive clemency and judicial reversal.”
These men aren’t accused. THEY’RE CONVICTED.
Yet this story has received nowhere near the sustained national attention its scale deserves.
October 27 is Sentencing day.
Keep your eyes wide fucking open.

NEW: Local leaders across Texas are saying the quiet part out loud: Abbott’s “pause” on Flock cameras and data centers will be quickly undone if he wins re-election.
Abbott fought to bring data centers and Flock cameras to Texas– and even his fellow Republicans know his sudden opposition to them is an election-year stunt.

NOAA launches the weather balloons, floats the ocean buoys, flies the satellites, and staffs the forecasters that tell us when storms are coming. That data supports about two-thirds of the economy, roughly $1.3 trillion a year, and it paid us back $73 for every dollar we spent on it.
DOGE took a chainsaw to it anyway.
They cut 2,500 people.
They pushed out 27,000 years of experience in just a few months.
Now a charter fishing captain in Homer, Alaska has spent half a season with no idea what the wind is doing in waters he fishes every day. Kansas got hit by two tornadoes nobody saw coming. Forecasters missed how strong a typhoon was as it headed for Alaska. Farmers, insurers, airlines, and city engineers are all working with worse information than they had two years ago.
And now the Trump administration plan is to cut even deeper.
They want to pull another $1.6 billion out of NOAA next year. They want to hand the rest to private companies, so your town ends up paying a business for weather data your taxes already paid for, with no promise it will even be right.
Wrecking a 73-to-1 investment and sending the bill to fishermen, farmers, and families. Just crazy.

The Justice Department has yet to convince a single court it is entitled to states’ unredacted voter rolls, but now the Trump administration hopes to spin those losses into a win at the U.S. Supreme Court.
