When attention is sufficiently diverted, out comes the next Epstein files. This afternoon and tomorrow will be a flurry of ridiculous.

You can take this one to the bank.

And Stephen Colbert…and Jon Stewart…and Seth Meyers…and every American who stands against tyranny. Our forefathers gave their lives for democracy and for our freedom. We must honor the sacrifices of generations of our heroes!

As a former Texas Legislator, I can assure you, these paychecks are of little consequence.

Why isn’t this enough for Republicans?

I grew up in a Gold Star Family, raised by a father who was a Silver Star hero in WWII. Every single one of the heroes in my family would be devastated over what our governments are perpetrating in American streets. Don’t hide from this…rise up, speak out…vote them out!

Truth telling right here. Add to this, we have the most unserious government in the history of America (and Texas). We must recruit the best candidates at every level and support them to the winner’s circle with $s and grassroots campaigning…we must!

This is what happens when leadership focuses the lion’s share of legislative time to pointless culture wars. Time for Texas to focus on people over politics!

Complete abuse of power. Senator Padilla is a fine, decent man who embodies all the qualities you look for in a great leader. He is warm and welcoming, kind and gracious. I wish he were my U.S. Senator. This despicable, disgraceful assault on him is disturbing and un-American!

My own first pregnancy ended in a similar way and I needed an immediate D & C. Today, Texas legislators would jeopardize my life over the most necessary of procedures. I so worry for my granddaughters if they stay.

Elon Musk is Lex Luthor. You know it…DOGE was never, ever about government efficiency.

The world needs to be done with this lunatic!

Marc Elias, want to see how they really disenfranchise voters of color, take a look at the gerrymander of my Senate District 10 in 2021 redistricting. Took away all the minority power at the ballot box by cracking and packing them in heavily white areas. Happens in Texas over and over, every level.

Joe Biden will one day be understood as the greatest president ever to have served this once great country. He saved millions of lives, reversed the economic devastation of the 1st Trump debacle, and he created the strongest economy in the world. Trump’s 1st 100 days already destroyed it!

LOOK IT UP. As a business person I’ve lived this truth…I can never understand why we need to ride this roller coaster.

My dad would have been 100 this year, a WWII Battle of the Bulge Silver Star hero, so proud of his service to defeat fascism. He would have loved this #teslatakedown. I love it for him! Americans, we must keep fighting for our democracy!

A few years ago, our Texas Democratic Legislative delegation sat around a conference table with VP Harris taking about voter suppression. Not one legislator felt compelled to any utterance of malignantly sycophantic rhetoric. Trump’s ego (and economic strategy) must be fragile as a house of straw!

Corrupt. Craven. Cruel. Callous.

Tragically moronic! Dangerous.

America should treat Fox Propaganda Stations like they do Tesla. Every major city has one, and they are easy to locate! Fox is a carbuncle on the ass of America.

Perhaps Trump should have “learned a little more” through due process before he deported 200+ men to a Salvadoran concentration camp!

Prophetic ad from October, 2024. On the money, every item on the list checked off before the end of first 90 days. What’s next…

If you doubt your boycott of Amazon is making an impact, just take a look at the new TV/Cable ad. Major whining about how Amazon just reps product for small American businesses. Perhaps Bezos should have thought about that before he supported Fascism with their small business $ millions.

Honestly, you couldn’t make this crazy up if you tried. There is no Republican bridge too far in Texas now.

FACT

I D I O T !!!

The way out of this nightmare, hard as it will be, is by holding our legislators accountable. We create a movement like today’s marches that ousts Trump supporters and we collectively call them on their bs every day, day after day until it’s over!

The Texas Oligarchy has emboldened the leadership of Texas with overwhelming amounts of dark money right out in the open. The young student who testified is right on the facts. These bills are about having it their way…oppression, hate and discrimination!

Thanks to the complete and total disdain of Elon Musk!

20 years ago, I toured the Dachau Concentration Camp. I remember vividly wondering how Germany could have become so evil. Now we know…
