My thoughts on why it's so important to turn out on Oct 18 for the next #NoKings rally.
"In America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against Trump’s lawlessness, chaos, corruption and cruelty. Don’t despair. Get energized and turn your anger into action."

Persuasive. It's time for Congressional Democrats to take a bold, coherent stand against Trump and his MAGA sycophants in Congress. With a clear promise of what Democratic control means for the American people.

Just another example: when Republicans can't win playing by the rules they cheat. Gerrymandering TX to stay in power is just one more example. They know they'll lose control of Congress in the midterm elections because cutting taxes for the rich by cutting healthcare is widely unpopular.
Despite his threats, Governor Abbott can’t remove lawmakers from office for protecting the right to vote.
I sent him a letter to remind him of what all Texans know: the Governor is not a king.
