Trump says his mass deportation agenda is to protect the public from dangerous criminals. In reality, it is a complete failure and an abomination to any standard of morality.

Excited to be at the @naacp_san forum to share my vision and plan for Bexar County.
My conversations with Evan Smith at the LBJ School ha just begun!
"Like many Americans, I have watched the video of the shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis this morning…
Proud to share Express News piece on Ready to Work—helping thousands of train for better jobs & build real opportunity. 77% of voters approved it because we believe in the power of economic opportunity to change the trajectory of our entire community.

Year three of the three year plan looking real good! Go Spurs Go!
Happy Holidays, Bexar County. Erika, Jonah, and I wish you a peaceful holiday season, a very Merry Christmas, and a New Year filled with hope and promise.
Great being out with friends of all faiths to celebrate the 28th Annual Chanukah on the River. May the light of the season be a blessing to us all.
Today’s vote to move municipal elections to November is a win for democracy in San Antonio. More voices, more participation, and better representation for our city. Grateful to Mayor Jones, community leaders, and local organizations who helped move this forward.
My heart is with the Brown University community as they grapple with today’s violence. These spaces must be places of learning, growth, and safety—not fear. We owe students, faculty, and families a commitment to protect our campuses and prevent senseless harm.
Great to spend time with our fellow democrats at tonight’s ballot drawing.
The primaries are just around the corner — and I look forward to meeting you and earning your trust and vote. When you head to the polls, look for my name as #2 on the ballot for Bexar County Judge.
Moving our municipal elections to November is about strengthening our democracy — not for any party, but for the future of San Antonio. More voices, better decisions.
I stand with Mayor Jones, community leaders, and local organizations in moving this forward.
Just a quick note of thanks:
To everyone who continues to believe in our city's future-you're the reason our community keeps growing stronger. I'm grateful to be on this journey with you. Let's keep going. #StrongerTogether #TeamRon
2/2 Rather than defend years of thoughtful, public engagement and compromise led by Kate Rogers, Lt Gov Dan Patrick folded to the loudest extremists in his party. History should not be sacrificed to score political points. It should be honored with honesty and truth.
1/2 This isn’t about history—it’s about rewriting it. Everyone worked together productively on the Alamo plan until a simple acknowledgment of Indigenous history, which had previously gone unchallenged, suddenly became too much for GOP cancel culture.

This is really dumb.
Kate Rogers was the right leader at the right time to bring stable, fact-focused leadership to the difficult and important work of the Alamo redevelopment project. Don't let any extremist Republican lecture you about "cancel culture" ever again.

Rest in peace, Pope Francis. Your commitment to compassion was a guiding light for us all. Well done, good and faithful servant!
No better way to kick off my 48th trip around the sun than with a plate of pollos asados. 🎂
Grateful for the journey so far, and excited for another year of new opportunities and serving the city I love.
San Antonio: This Saturday at 10 AM I’ll be joining State Rep. Trey Martinez Fischer and SA Mayor @nirenberg.net for a townhall. We want to hear from you. RSVP now! tinyurl.com/TMFTOWNHALL
While Trump cuts critical funding and threatens local jobs, Mayors like San Antonio's @nirenberg.net are stepping up to support families—no matter what happens in DC.
San Antonio and Arlington are the heart and soul of Texas truck manufacturing. As the President’s tariffs go into effect next week, Arlington’s Mayor Ross and I wrote to our Senators to urge them to help us protect the people of Texas’ truck manufacturing industry. Thousands of jobs are on the line.
FYI, San Antonio—We are closely monitoring potential exposure to measles in our community.
This serves as a strong reminder to encourage our friends and neighbors to stay up to date with their vaccinations. Please remain aware of any symptoms if you believe you may have been exposed.
An X post claimed the number of federal workers grew by about 900,000 during President Joe Biden’s term, a nearly 50% increase. In fact, the number grew by about 5%. buff.ly/3D6MgQv
Developments far outside our city can threaten our water supply. We must stand with our neighbors and use our voices to protect the Edwards Aquifer.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.
This 20 minutes of video is more important than anything you'll see on TV this week. Sen. Angus King (I-ME) on how separation of powers defined in the Constitution protects us all from an authoritarian state. There is a point of no return, and the Framers warned us not to cross it.
Elon Musk spent a total of more than $290 million on the 2024 election, new federal filings show, boosting President Donald Trump and Republicans in a staggering effort that has helped to secure unprecedented access for the world’s richest person in the new administration.
