i have seen several “i won’t root for the spurs because Texas is evil” posts and i’d like to remind you they are the San Antonio Spurs, not the Texas Spurs greg abbott is not our governor, greg popovich is

SPURS

You’re not gonna make it, Shai, you’re not gonna make it, to New York. Sang to tune by twisted sister. 🎶

Been watching the Spurs beat OKC since 2025! 👽❤️🏀

Y’all. #gospursgo all up to this 4thQ!

just making it easy for us

Charting the Way Forward Ep 71. The team digs into the sad results for Republicans in Texas and the happy results of testing from our scorching new round of ads. 📺 youtu.be/Ie6qY-isqN4 🍎 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c... ads 🧵 here: bsky.app/profile/wayt...

If the Spurs win tonight, I’d 100% chip in to a go fund me to send as many San Anto buena gente to OKC as possible.

Timely: @taraemcg.bsky.social interviews @torygavito.bsky.social with @waytowinus.bsky.social on the unique opportunity Democrats have to flip the Texas Senate seat, now that the matchup between James Talarico and outrageously corrupt Ken Paxton is set. Let's go!

He shoulda taken a note from the Thom Tillis playbook— go down swinging. Embarrassing for the old country club guard. It’s just not a meaningful base any more, MAGA ate them.

The "Autopsy" Is a distraction. Ds "have the fight of their lives .. to win in 2026 and ...put a check on a grifter in the White House. The economy is in a total free fall. The Constitution is in shreds. We’re going back to post-Reconstruction era,” @torygavito.bsky.social @waytowinus.bsky.social

This week's Charting had @surj.org Exec Director Erin Heaney with some wild results from a brilliantly executed deep canvassing operation. **52%** of the white working class voters they talked to gave Trump a 0 or 1 on ICE. Listen now! 📺 youtu.be/V8ix_PhDAmQ 🍎 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c...

We have multiple academic articles with empirical evidence that liberals moving right on immigration empowers far right nationalist parties and diminishes support for liberal parties. They keep doing it anyways.

MeidasTouch: What do you make of this $1.776 billion fund— Gavin Newsom: It’s a criminal enterprise. It’s not just corruption, it’s not just graft, it’s a full-on criminal enterprise and it needs to be shut down.

Look who was on the hill today talking about supporting health care workers! And who asked me to sign my book for him and his mother!

Leadership requires asking hard questions in a timely manner.

💡 The DNC released its half-finished 2024 autopsy today. It's not that helpful. BUT over the past year, various groups and individuals who are probably smarter than the DNC released their own autopsies of what happened in 2024. Here's a thread with all of them. 🧵

Today is a good day to revisit *this* autopsy.

Can’t help but think of Ben Wikler today.

JUST POSTED: first in a new occasional series, Political Strength Training, this is a tour through some of the fascinating data we've accrued over the past few cycles of campaign work. However disastrous you thought the Democratic campaign approach to immigration was, it's worse. 🧵

Ok so Wemby is ejected for a flagrant even while he’s being fouled, but Allen isn’t? That doesn’t sit right. @nba.com

The ECF looks like slow mo compared to WCF. Love the Knicks but either and both Thunder and Spurs can out hustle ‘em with physicality by a lot.

Harper and Bryant: Rookies with the lockdown science. Bro!

DALE 2-1-0

I'm attending Black Voters Matter's event, “All Roads Lead to the South Rally - Austin, TX” - sign up now to join me! I am delighted to join a solidarity event with the Selma riders #BlackVoters www.mobilize.us/blackvotersm...

We’re excited to announce our endorsement of @justinjpearson.bsky.social! Justin is a frontline fighter for Tennesseans who has led in and outside of the State House on environmental justice, civil rights, and gun safety legislation. #TN09

I live in a gulf coast state, an oil and gas state, a state that loves the shape of itself. In my generation sea levels will rise, we will lose so much. The cartoon is offensive. We need leaders who will fight for a better future. It's not just the right thing to do, it's good strategy. A thread ⤵️

This is kind of brutal

As someone who organized on climate issues for 20 years, I want to commend this superb thread. So tired of center-left pseudo-intellectuals who haven’t actually done the work spouting off worse-than-useless opinions.

Great, data-driven response to the bad political advice in the NYTimes recently urging Democrats to shut up about climate change (and it's not like they are saying much about it). One of the many reasons I love @waytowinus.bsky.social -- political strategies based on data not biases.

The Spurs are a delight to watch, and obviously that starts with Wemby doing otherworldly things, but Dylan Harper is sneakily becoming my favourite. Future superstar with incredible “swaggy little brother” aura

I can’t believe they just tossed Wemby out

Y’all are just making a more reseted Wemby for game 5 #nbaplayoffs

I woulda thrown elbows too after hearing them disrespect Bey. This ain’t Texas… #gospursgo #wemby @nba.com playoffs

Really enjoyed this new (to me) podcast, "How Not to Lose Your Sh!t", with leaders from @redwineblueusa.bsky.social interviewing the fabulous @torygavito.bsky.social from @waytowinus.bsky.social . Path to victory in TX, making politics fun, staying sane amidst the chaos, and more.

"I think people are looking for community." @torygavito.bsky.social, President of Way to Win, joins @redwineblueusa.bsky.social for a freewheeling discussion about 'How to Not Lose Your Sh!t' in these crazy times! YT: www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4bU... Apple: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

Grift all the way down

Anyway. I’m glad nobody was hurt and I’m sure the journalists who attended the WHCD will not center themselves and their personal experiences and instead remain focused on holding the powerful accountable and informing the people about their government.

Making money for themselves is the point. The absurdity and cruelty is of no consequence.

If you don't understand how grassroots organizing works... or you do and want inspiration, drink in some wisdom from Todd Zimmer of Down Home North Carolina. Also, don't sleep on NC!

So grateful for Congresswoman Ansari's leadership! @repyassansari.bsky.social

Knicks are broken. Gotta respect Atlanta’s hustle. But I’m mad.

ICE has violated almost 100 court orders. Let me say that another way. 100 times ICE was caught brazenly ignoring the law. 100 times a court told them to immediately stop. And 100 times they ignored the order. That's an out-of-control agency that shouldn't get another dime.

The president just told me the stock market hit an all time high today. Huh. Also, no.

Incredible shots of the exchange between Rep. AOC and RFK, Jr. at today’s congressional hearing. (image credit: WSJ reporter @lizessleywhyte.bsky.social)
