If they were being honest, Texas leaders used to frown at Washington interfering in our decisions. Now the Governor is kissing the ring- it’s a sad day for local control and the people who deserve the FAIR chance to elect people of their choice! #nogerrymandering #resist
Coming to you live from the UofH Texas House congressional redistricting hearing with Congresswoman @jasmineforus.bsky.social! This fight isn’t easy, but the Congresswoman reminds us: if we don’t stand up, they’ll keep walking all over us.

I’ll be back with more updates.

Some Utah students have not been given an explicit reason for why their visas were revoked. In some cases, the stated reason has been a criminal record check, but others have simply been “failure to maintain nonimmigrant status.”

Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia is a father, a husband, a SMART Union apprentice — and it’s long past time for him to be reunited with his family in Maryland.

He was wrongly deported by Donald Trump and left to rot in an El Salvador prison.

Bring him home.

Probably another thing the geniuses currently running our government didn’t anticipate. The only question remaining is what excuse Trump will give for his next capitulation while declaring victory. We are so screwed with these morons.

I’m changing my tune here a bit, based upon some of the organic protests we’ve been seeing very recently: The Dems’ silence may not be a bad thing, for the moment …. They might only f things up …. But we shall see
It seems like Democrats are just watching what's happening and not doing much talking.

Elon Musk is trying again on his demand that every federal worker justify their employment weekly. And again, the hastily executed initiative is sowing confusion and resistance throughout the workforce, with many agency heads openly defying it.

"Policing your own conflicts" is not a thing. Certainly not with a known con man.

MAGAs told America they were sick of corruption in government—yet we now have the most openly corrupt government we've ever had in the history of America.

I'd say "make it make sense," but it doesn't and no one can.
As Musk polices his own conflicts, some agencies hear sirens going off

Earlier today I wrote an open letter to Elon Musk in response to a post in which he claimed that I am “undermining civilization” and suffering from “generational trauma.” The response I received from so many of you was overwhelming.

Thank you for all the kind words of support.
