Fort Worth: The last Democrat to run for Texas Senate in SD9 got 40% against Senator Hancock in 2022. Last night the Democrat in the area got 48%. An eight-point swing to the Democrats in a deeply Republican suburban part of Texas should be very concerning to the majority party in this state

There's good reason to think Rep. Crockett will go for it and run for US Senate in Texas. It would turn the race upside down. Plus, I answer for *that* typo about AG Paxton. All in the latest show:

Good for Texas media to keep in mind as they report on this news — recall what Abbott’s office said about deploying TX Guard to Chicago just a month ago.

To any reporters who disputed what Gov. Pritzker said on Sept. 2 he believed the Texas National Guard was being considered, please remember to not take the statements of Trump, Noem, or Abbott at face value. Many turn out to be lies.

Gotta make sure I thank @scottbraddock.bsky.social for making sure we here in lefty land are getting notifications about the new Quorum Report podcast too. I know the engagement isn't as high over here as it is on the other place, so I want to make sure it's appreciated 🙏🏼
There's no good reason for a third special session of the legislature, but people around here won't stop talking about it. So, here's some real talk on why it ain't necessary and - knock on wood - shouldn't happen:

Taking a second to let you know that while I listened to this episode I said a little “thank you” prayer for you and the couple of others who have not stopped talking about Uvalde. I will never complain about too much Uvalde coverage.
