After years of trying, Texas Republicans just passed a bathroom bill targeting trans Texans. They’re obsessed with attacking people’s dignity instead of solving real problems. We stand with all our LGBT neighbors and reject this right wing shamelessness.

Trump will be giving military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt, the J6 insurrectionist who stormed the Capitol with a violent mob. He is also giving her family $5 million in taxpayer dollars. Fallen Capital Police officer Brian Sicknick, who lost his life trying to protect the Capitol, gets NOTHING!

Greg Abbott is throwing a tantrum so extreme, he’s now threatening to unilaterally remove nearly every Texas Democrat from office. But Rep Greg Casar isn’t backing down. He’s calling us to the streets. Join him TONIGHT at 5:30pm outside the governor’s mansion.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
