I'm hoping that Hegseth continues down this shitty path....and that the Canadian publisher/owner of Franklin the Turtle strikes back with a sizeable lawsuit. Go get 'em...that is all that Trump et al understand.
Franklin The Turtle’s publisher responds to Pete Hegseth.

The Texas Board of Ed. just tapped David Barton—whose Thomas Jefferson book was pulled off shelves by a Christian publisher for having too many lies—to shape what millions of kids learn in history class.

It's like hiring a Flat Earther to advise NASA.

Following up on our last post, things are getting more crazy by the day. Using federal law enforcement to go after your political opponents isn’t democracy. It’s authoritarianism. Call it what it is fascism.
Texas House issues arrest warrants for Democrats who left state to block congressional redistricting
The warrants apply only within state lines, making them largely symbolic as most of the legislators in question decamped to Illinois, New York and Massachusetts.

I will not stand by while Republicans try to erase Californians' votes to protect Donald Trump from the backlash of his own policies.

I am for fairness — and I won't let my state be ruthlessly attacked without fighting back.

TXGOP = cheating and intimidation

They “invite” the public to testify against their rigged gerrymandering, praying for a moment like this.

But they chose the wrong man.
@isaiahrmartin.bsky.social is a beloved Texas leader!
What he’s NOT is trespassing, disrupting or resisting.

The land has always flooded. But in the last decade, we’ve had:

One 300-year storm.

Three 500-year storms.

Now this.

Disaster is no longer rare. It’s rhythm.
