So. Rep Crockett announced her TX campaign for US Senate.

Good.

Voters get a choice in the primary. They can research the candidates, find their positions on issues and choose.

She's getting ultra-gerrymandered out of her Rep seat, so why not take the shot.

It's a primary. Not a coliseum fight.

The EPA has removed references about humans causing climate change from its website. No US government website can be trusted for science information.

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone.

Don't fall for it.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

You’ve probably heard but I have been federally indicted by Trump’s DOJ.

We now have to cover the costs of a campaign *and* a legal battle to preserve our First Amendment rights.

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

Governor JB Pritzker just sounded the alarm bells about Trump’s plan to steal the midterms and maybe even CANCEL them:

“He's challenging the integrity of the next election by sending troops into our cities. That's what I believe this is about. It isn't about fighting crime.”

For anyone feeling helpless with all that is happening, please remember: Every authoritarian regime that rose to power by silencing dissent, banning truth, controlling the population through fear and violence has either collapsed, been overthrown or imploded under its own corruption or paranoia.
