See you tomorrow at Los Compadres Mexican Restaurant in Dayton, TX, for a candidate meet-and-greet hosted by the Liberty County Democratic Party. 2-3pm (1400-1500 for the military types).

My take on Trump's chaotic adventurism from Venezuela to Greenland to Main St, USA. It's bad for business and most of all it's terrible for everyday Americans. Published in Gary Kasparov's "The Next Move": www.thenextmove.org?utm_source=n...

This week Russia bombed apartments in Odessa and Kyiv, killing dozens of civilians including children. They even attacked a civilian train. Terrorism, plain and simple. Not a peep from the White House, other than to say Ukraine must surrender territory. BTW, airplanes don't "dock."

Thanks to the @pasadenachamber of Commerce and Texas Chiropractic College for hosting a great Congressional District 9 Candidate Forum last night, it was my privilege to share my vision for a strong and growing middle class in our district! www.facebook.com/share/v/1FEq...

The space shuttle Challenger exploded 40 years ago today. Let's honor the brave crew of STS-51L. Ad Astra

Honoring the Day of Remembrance today. Let’s never forget the memory of so many lost in the holocaust, and work hard to end the rising tide of anti-semitism.

The typical Trump playbook is to push and push until way past the line. And then pullback, and expect everyone to say "that's just Trump being Trump. Art of the Deal." In Minnesota he's gone too far, and this time there needs to be real accountability. Repeal and replace ICE.

Just got a text from an Australian friend who was planning to come to the US for the World Cup. "I won't be coming to America until Trump is gone." This is a disaster for our tourist industry. Trump's descent into fascism is going to crush working Americans' pocket books.

Statistic: 2/3rds of murders in Minneapolis so far in 2026 have been committed by DHS agents

Impeach Kristi Noem today.

Two weeks ago this guy announced he was providing legal help to the agent who shot Renee Good. That's how quickly the winds are shifting.

It's time to repeal and replace ICE.

A message for Trump voters who realize this is not what they voted for.

Let’s not forget that 7 Senate Democrats voted to confirm Kristi Noem. The time for enabling fascism is over. The time for fighting it is now.

Chief Strategist for Rand Paul.

This is ok tho

Today ICE murdered another American. All of us need to fight back against this authoritarian violence from the Trump administration. And every elected Democrat needs to use the full force of their power, which is significant, to end this nightmare before it’s too late.

It's time to get dark money out of politics. The influence that billionaires and large corporations have is poison in our Democracy: open.substack.com/pub/thehuman...

Thank you @adamkinzinger.substack.com !

Had a great time chatting with @adamkinzinger.substack.com

Let’s have a system that works for us; not one that favors billionaires. As a congressman I will work tirelessly to level the playing field.

For over 30 years in the Air Force I had to console too many widows and orphans after their loved one had died in service to their county. Way too many. If any American dies in pursuit of Trump's vanity project in Greenland I would have no idea how to comfort their family.

Just a reminder that as of now, Iran is still run by cruel theocrats, Venezuela is still run by far-left socialists, Russia is still run by a destructive dictatorship, and Ukraine is still run by a vibrant democracy.

Happy MLK day everyone. Some of his words the night before he was assassinated: “Like anybody, I would like to live a long life…. I’ve seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the promised land!”

Trump’s Greenland strategy of the day: increase taxes on working Americans (through illegal tariffs) for his vanity project. How about we get health care costs down and the Epstein files released instead? abcnews.go.com/amp/US/trump...

No this is not an Onion headline. www.thedailybeast.com/ice-dhs-depa...

I’m running for Congress in Texas’ 9th Congressional district to stop Greg Abbott from stealing this seat and to hold Donald Trump accountable. To help me fight, chip in at: www.terryvirts.com

What this President thinks of working people in one clip- the finger and an F-you.

Taylor Rehmet has a vision to fix the healthcare crisis, but that can’t happen if Republicans continue to stand in the way. Early voting for this runoff in SD-9 starts 1/21! — make sure you have everything you need before you head to the polls on our voter navigation resource at GoVoteTexas.org.

Let’s support the people of Iran as they fight to replace their murderous theocracy with the system THEY want. Thousands of innocents have been killed so far. If successful it will be good for the region and for all Americans to have a safer world and a more stable economy.

This administration keeps on creating distraction after distraction. What do they have to hide? Congress should do its job and shine some light on these important issues.

Please take 5 minutes to read or listen to this post from Heather Cox Richardson. During WW2, the US Army made a pamphlet explaining to soldiers what fascism was, and why we had to guard against it here in America. It’s like they were describing 2026. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Christmas in January- lots of smiling kids in Denver Harbor (Houston) were surprised with bikes & gifts this morning. Plus a fire engine parade! Thanks to everyone involved: HFD Station 27, HPD, Juan Hernandez from Dona Maria, Conchita Reyes, Ana Gonzalez, & many more!

Today is National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day. I wanted to personally say thank you to our local law-enforcement and community police officers who risk their lives to keep us safe, we appreciate you. #NationalLawEnforcementAppreciationDay

Our neighborhoods need community policing that is focused on de-escalation, not masked commandos sent to antagonize and inflame.

Proud to support the @AFLCIO and all of the hard-working Texans who power our energy and shipping industries here in CD-9!

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” - Winston Smith (from George Orwell’s 1984)

The President thrives on chaos and violence. We all deserve better.

On the fifth anniversary of January 6th my Republican politician opponents are still focused on denying reality. As a Congressman I will be focused on making life more affordable for Texans.

My friend Conchita Reyes asked me to share this with everyone, a missing teen. Paulina Martinez, last seen in Houston at Commerce and Emmanuel. As a father this hits hard. Please share and report anything you see.

Invading Venezuela won’t make life easier for working Texans. And most importantly, it will make Americans much less safe and prosperous.

Spending $Billions to invade and "run" Venezuela won't help ordinary Texans pay their bills, just like tax cuts for the rich don't. #townhall

Donald Trump for Nobel War Prize! www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

America First should not mean invading a South American country to take their oil.

Why Ukraine winning this war is so important for everyday Americans.

I’m feeling good about 2026. If this were the original Star Wars trilogy, 2025 was the Empire Strikes Back, and 2026 is going to be Return of the Jedi.
