My father’s family has lived in Kerrville’s Doyle community-the black & Latino side of town-for nearly a century. My great-grandmother was a pillar of that neighborhood, feeding & housing dozens across generations. I just know that area is gone & those folks-like everyone in Texas-deserve better.
After media reports & experts warned for months that drastic & sudden cuts at the Nat Weather Service by Trump could impair their forecasting ability & endanger lives during the storm season, TX officials blame an inaccurate forecast by NWS for the deadly results of the flood.

Zelensky cares more about the people of Texas than Donald Trump does. Shameful of Donald Trump.

After Trump was warned for months that cuts to the National Weather Service would result in Americans dying needlessly, the incompetent psychopath did it anyway. 27 people are dead in Texas with dozens still missing. And for what? For tax cut for billionaires. 😡😡😡👇

No advance warning, thanks directly to Trump decimating the National Weather Service.
Congratulations, MAGA. Texas GOP. You voted for this, and you jeered and ridiculed the rest of us when we warned that this would happen.

I’d forgotten that Texas sued the Biden administration and won .. specifically about the flooded area.

Trump released his proposed budget-and it’s as draconian as you’d expect

He’s cutting SNAP by almost 2/3

Reducing cancer research by nearly 40%

Taking $33 billion from the HUD

And $12 billion from the Department of Education

Once again-the cruelty is the point

I was on SM hiatus this week and didn't get a chance to share this. Another reminder we aren't just "headed" for a police state.

Why did Jake Tapper write a book on a former President while the current President is ushering in fascism and oligarchy?

Jake isn't used to getting his hands dirty fighting for democracy. If it doesn't come easy, he's not going to do it. Biden is an easy target. Trump will hit back. Hard.

This month, Avelo Airlines signed a $150 million contract with ICE to operate deportation flights. Matthew Boulay explains that investors, financial partners and passengers should walk away—not look the other way.

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

Republicans just made their big bad billionaire tax bill worse.

They just added a provision that pressures health exchange plans to drop most abortion services—EVEN if federal funds aren’t used to pay for them.

Millions of women will lose access to basic health care if the GOP gets their way.

It takes just minutes to read, but I promise it will blow your mind.

The Trump-Qatar Scandal is about so much more than a damn plane—and Trump knows it. Even many in major media know it.

I cannot explain to you, as a bestselling Trump biographer, why so many in D.C. are hiding what all of us know.

I wrote three bestselling Trump political biographies during his first administration. I know exactly why Qatar is bribing him, and so does he. I have no idea why American major media won’t report it.

ICE pretended to arrest a 21 yo in order to force her to call her undocumented mother to come leave the house (where she was safe from ICE arrest) to care for her baby. When the mother came, she was abducted and the daughter was suddenly of no interest to ICE.
