Senator Cruz is mistaken about our airline refund rule.

Of course you can still choose to accept a rebooking.

But if you don’t, you’ll get your money back, automatically and in cash.

Ending the refund runaround isn’t a “dumb idea.” It’s common sense.

If you are reading this I’d like you to do a mental exercise

Think about how “monitoring women’s pregnancies” would be implemented

Think about it in detail

Who would do the monitoring?

What data would they collect?

Who would determine if it’s an abortion or miscarriage?

Texas Republicans have left rural communities behind.

Failure to identify and replace our crumbling infrastructure led to the biggest wildfire in state history earlier this year.

And we will have lawyers at the ready. This is no game- If we find ANY act to intimidate or threaten voters in violation of the law… we will pursue charges & judicial action. That Madam Chair Lara Trump is a promise!

So like Ronna you better get that bail money ready!

Texas has spent $148 million busing migrants to other parts of the country but we don't have the budget to help students living in poverty in the state's largest school district get access to 'clothes, food and mental health services.'

Our kids do not bring just their backpacks to school.

TEA's hand-picked super is cutting services that keep students fed & housed while he has tripled the # of six-figure admins in the district in a year.

Little wonder Houston Fed of Tchrs has no confidence in this leadership.

We’re experiencing the radicalization of the center and the middle white class, which is something that accompanies authoritarianism

I knew it was coming but I didn’t expect it would feel this horrific. It’s one thing to see it on the page and another to live through it yourself

Donald Trump is out here talking about putting immigrants in concentration camps and prosecuting women for having abortions — and the New York Times is still complaining about Biden not giving them an interview.

What are we doing folks?

The top 0.1% of Americans control $20 trillion in wealth.

The bottom 50% control $3.7 trillion in wealth.

Read that back.

Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.
