Loved, loved, loved welcoming the @thebulwark.com gang to Texas last night with a strong H-Town contingent! It's always good to talk with @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social -- the show and the awesome Austin crowd made me hopeful and proud!

I'm excited to welcome The Bulwark to Texas! It's not Houston, but I guess Austin is fine, too.

My friend @dexterlmccoy.bsky.social is in the runoff for Fort Bend County Judge. He has a real vision for Fort Bend and a genuine commitment to the county and the people who live there.

Let’s keep last Tuesday’s energy going! Early voting begins May 18 and the runoff Election Day is May 26.

I am honored and proud to represent #TX07 and to be the Democratic nominee again in 2026.

It was great to see the huge turnout in the primary. Let's keep that energy going through November!

If you experience or witness voter intimidation or any voting anomalies, help is available through the Texas Voter Protection hotlines.

Early voting continues through Friday. Election Day is Tuesday, March 3.

These Houston-area lawmakers are skipping Trump's State of the Union Address Some U.S. representatives from Houston plan to use that time to meet with constituents instead.

So fun to start my Sunday at a friendly neighborhood gathering in the Heights to meet with new #TX07 voters. Thanks to all who joined! Democrats are organizing across the county and the country, one neighbor at a time. That's how you do it!

Spent the morning block walking in Telfair with
@dexterlmccoy.bsky.social. With early voting underway in #TX07 and across Texas, it's time to talk to your friends and neighbors about voting in the primary election!

Teaming up with @lizziepfletcher.bsky.social this afternoon to knock doors and share our vision for the community during #GOTV!

Thank you to all the volunteers, including the LGBTQ+ Caucus, Harris County Young Democrats, and so many others!

I watched this in disbelief with the rest of you. I call on my Republican colleagues to remember that their duty is to our country, not a mad king.

I will be knocking doors this weekend with @abbiekamin.bsky.social and you can join us! Early voting is underway and it's time to talk to your neighbors to make sure they have all of the information they need to vote.

Trump: ‘We should take over the voting’ Trump, as usual, offered no evidence for any of his claims.

This should alarm every American.

"President Donald Trump urged Republicans to seize control of elections and place voting under national authority Monday — one of his most explicit signals yet that he plans to interfere with the workings of democracy." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

TX Congresswoman: Unlawful searches are unconstitutional, un‑American As the Trump administration intensifies its immigration crackdown, Rep. Lizzie Fletcher (D‑TX7) defends the Fourth Amendment and raises concerns about warrantless raids and threats to civil liberties....

Cardinal Tobin: Pray, mourn and say 'no' to ICE funding In a reflection delivered during an online interfaith prayer service hosted by Faith in Action, Tobin employed some of the strongest language yet by a U.S. cardinal to condemn the Trump administration...

"Tobin concluded his remarks with a challenge to people of faith disturbed by what they see: 'How will you scrawl your answer on the wall? How will you help restore a culture of life in the midst of death?'"

This video is difficult to watch. But we cannot look away from federal agents murdering an American citizen in the street in Minneapolis today. We must see what is happening and use every tool we have to stop the killing of Americans in our streets by those claiming to act with our authority.

Now is the time to prepare for this weekend's winter storm in Houston.

Americans have the right to protest. We have the right to question our leaders, to fight against tyranny. Not just the right, the obligation. It's all right there in our country's founding documents.

Trust your eyes and ears. You saw what happened in Minneapolis, you heard the gunshot, you heard a doctor pleading to check for a pulse while ICE agents screamed at him to get back. This administration is lying about things you know to be true.

Demand justice for Renee Good.

Jan. 6, 2021: A visual archive of the Capitol attack NPR’s Jan. 6 archive brings together reporting, video, documents and testimony to show what really happened during the Capitol riot. Explore the timeline, cases and evidence behind the attack.

This archive of scenes and voices from Jan. 6 is worth going back to today. The terror we all felt that day remains with us, and we know exactly who is to blame for inciting that mob and deadly insurrection: Donald Trump.

We must never forget.
