By hanging this banner, the DOJ is making it explicitly clear that, above all, it now exists to carry out the petty grievances of one man.
This is not normal.

After a Super Bowl ad gone wrong, home security company, Ring, will no longer partner with a surveillance and security firm to share and analyze users’ doorbell cam video.
Ring ends security partnership amid ad backlash
Many viewers of a Super Bowl ad dramatizing the search for a lost puppy felt that Ring's plan to link up with surveillance companies who work with police had gone too far.

DOOCY: On Prince Andrew, do you think American associates of Jeffrey Epstein will wind up in handcuffs too?
TRUMP: I'm the expert in a way because I've been totally exonerated. That's very nice. I can actually speak about it very nicely. I think it's a shame. I did nothing.

Apparently, if some right-wing YouTube account posts a video about fraud, that means the Trump administration will jump to attention and block child care funding for an ENTIRE state.
This is NOT accountability or oversight—it's blind accusations and a witch hunt.

Texas teachers carry so much, and most people never see it.
I’m grateful to be endorsed by Texas AFT. As a former public school student, I know how much it matters when a teacher chooses patience over pressure, and care over shortcuts.
Thank you to the educators who keep showing up.

As you are voting, keep in mind that the GOP (Abbott) turned over our voter data, and signed a confidential agreement with the Regime to allow them to determine who should be purged from our voter rolls.
