WTF?! We have to listen to folks babble on about the supposed benefits of capitalism and competition and trickle down economics. How awfully silent they go when consumers need protection from corporate cannibalism. Where are the βfree marketβ people??
Houston peeps! Please join if youβre able!

A black text on white background fundraising graphic that reads from top to bottom 50501-Houston. Communities at Work (CAW). Fundraiser for Single Mom of 5. A single Houston mother of 5 (mom to 2, guardian to 3 nieces/nephews) is facing eviction, this November. We have fundraised $220 this week to help her, but another $575 is needed for the month's rent ($795) to keep the apartment. Any help is appreciated. Please include the donation note: APT @RaqyD Venmo or $raqytejas CashApp. Logos at bottom left are for CAW and 50501 Houston. Thank you, Houston! Nov 22, 2025.
Thanks to everyone who donated for the #SingleMom of 3 #kids to get her car back! We've hit that goal! THANK YOU. π We have one fundraiser remaining to help the single mom of 5 keep a roof over their heads. #fundraiser #HTX #Houston #TX #Texas #fundraising #ComnunitySupport #Kids #Eviction #Housing
Houston! If youβre able, use your voice, and a peak up for your community, and say NO to HPDβs collaboration with ICE!
Today, our candidates connected with community faith leaders from all across #CFISD! It was a wonderful opportunity to listen and learn from one another.

If the M4L endorsement wasnβt bad enough, they have also decided CKβs assassination should be further exploited but this time to attack teachers. What happened to putting our kids first?!
