This message hits hard.

The modern trad-cath social movement isnt far from OG Mexican sinarquista movement originating from a nazi looking to dirty & water down catholic social teachings that empower and bring together communities, to instead uphold right-wing white supremacist politics and incite radicals’ violent anger

Les contradiccions entre els arquitectes de l'onada reaccionària ja són més que evidents. Escissió a la Heritage Foundation, que va en la línia de les lluites internes a Turning Point. El projecte neofeixista no s'aguanta per enlloc. www.wsj.com/opinion/heri...

We have much to do. Over the next ten days, we'll be sharing about some of what we have accomplished together in the past year, and taking action to address the coming issues, including pending legislation in some states and executions in others.

On this final evening of Chanukah, which happens to fall on the Winter Solstice, we are ending a time of darkness and working towards a brighter world.

*from stump and media, not policy Energy- She wasn’t all of the above on energy but prioritized clean energy and environmental justice

I do think a useful strategy is esp wrt to South Texas and RGV is to ask what were HRC -the best-ever performing candidate in South Texas - policy proposals in 2016 to dispel disingenuous bullshitters like Yglesias Eg On immigration- she wasn’t tough on border, dropping enforcement altogether*

I’ve returned to the promised land (taco palenque)

Texas races. Love seeing no zero unopposed statewide seats 🙂‍↔️ docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Cleanview dropped these FREE maps of upcoming wind, solar, BESS, and data center projects Check it out here: cleanview.co/free-project...

Man I just want a breakfast taco what the hell is this Austin?? The valley would never do me like this. Fries and raw onion 🫨 will update

where can I get grits in this godforsaken city

!!! They dropped a bunch of experimental flies in Edinburg (the RGV) a few months ago to see if they’re able to combat the screwworm. Then there was an announcement of first human transmission in the U.S. I would say it’s pretty urgent

Once again begging non-Texans to stay out of Texans’ business.

how many brilliant artists, writers, philosophers have we lost to poverty & capitalism— Countless. Now we stand to lose scientists too??

"All is lost" narratives are popular because people generally do not want to take action. Taking action is tiring so if all is lost, you are off the hook. Nothing is more seductive than not having to do anything.

Destructive policies right before Christmas while people aren’t paying attention. Things are getting really really bad

ICE raided a James Beard award winning restaurant & because the chef/owner was prepared, left emptyhanded:

*youth pastor voice* Let me tell you kids about another carpenter who wasn’t very popular with the authorities

I'm not exaggerating when I say following @boltsmag.org rn will unlock money for our journalism. A generous reader, @russ41.bsky.social, has offered to donate $1 for every 1-person increase to our follower count. If you're not following @boltsmag.org yet, it'll directly help fund our reporting!

Cuellar just re-filed for congress after trump issued pardon. He’s running as a democrat.

Evil never dies, it reinvents itself. If the democratic establishment had stayed out of this 2020 south texas primary we would’ve had a progressive champion in Jessica Cisneros and a healthy, revitalized Democratic Party in south texas.

One in five adults faces mental illness each year — but care is still out of reach for far too many. That’s why I worked with my Dallas delegation to bring home $100 million for the new Dallas State Hospital, the first full state psychiatric hospital in our region. #TXLege #SD16

why are there bots on Bluesky 😐

Freshman Rep. Kerwin’s HB 1674 would’ve banned PFAS in Texas ag to protect public health and farmland but it failed— despite bringing 100s of her constituents to testify. How did we get to the point where our government is purposely contaminating produce with chemicals used to subdue fires #txlege

Amazon doesn't admit how many data centers they run. It's already over 900.

And without appropriate flood risk mitigation or regulatory oversight

Hey remember when they blew up their own launch pad earlier this year

This makes me so sad for my home. But also… One of the largest structures on earth in an area constantly battered by storms? www.mysanantonio.com/news/south-t...

Digital strategist Olivia Julianna talking about how apathy is a big problem but if people can see that things can get better at the local level, they’ll start believing in federal government

What does it mean if redistricting is happening? “It means they want to cheat” - Former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder #tribfest #texastribunefestival

“People need to rethink of [transit] as fabric of our communities” - Greg Canally, Austin Transit Partnership

Tim Walz starting off strong sharing that Minnesota will be a 100% clean electricity state by 2035

I was solar pilled 2 weeks ago and now I can’t take anything requiring a 5+ year buildout seriously

Glenn hamer complaining about “the communist they elected in New York” yawnnnnnnn

At the Texas Energy Summit this week! Rep. Darby & Rep. Zwiener talk about their “A+ defense from D- and F attacks” “Energy is not partisan. It is not a culture war issue… We’re on team clean, reliable, affordable energy.” - Rep. Zwiener

Really great community townhall in Leander led by Sandy Creek flood survivors with the Travis county judge & county commissioners

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

“.. They describe the legions of masked immigration officers operating in near-total anonymity on the orders of the president as the crossing of a line that had long set the United States apart from the world’s most repressive regimes.” @propublica.org www.propublica.org/article/trum...

I really take my hat off to tiny groups doing this in very red areas. That takes guts.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents. I did it because the government isn’t. This is what I found.

No Kings-Austin,TX

12 hour day of finance & software bros at dervos has radicalized me. I will not elaborate
