Let's get @ginafortexas.bsky.social the attention she deserves. She's running for governor of Texas. She's running for us. She's not running to keep the billionaires in power. (Greg Abbott is, tho.)

Your right to read is being infringed upon, and librarians have become the first responders in the fight for democracy and First Amendment rights. Texas has become ground zero as sweeping book bans are adopted at an unprecedented rate. Read More👉 ebx.sh/hwlQaW

I’m just completely discouraged. That was the plan, right?

Just the most dimwitted people.

Democratic state Rep. James Talarico is set to announce his Senate bid on Tuesday, according to three people familiar with the plans The rising star has been flirting with a bid as Democrats look to flip the Lone Star state. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

I was a reference librarian in Texas during the census. That means I was to promote participation. It was like Abbott didn’t want a true count.

Explain to me like I'm a four year old why Greg Abbott cares so much about my privacy and safety in a woman's bathroom yet disregards my right to privacy and safety in a gynecologist's office?

I am heartbroken over the tragic event that occurred in Texas. People on here ditch Texas but so many people are donating money to help. Others are delivering supplies. Texans are such good people. That’s why I am perplexed by why we keep voting in evil people in office.

No prob. Believe me, many people want to leave, but can’t. Texas is one of the worst states in the nation for high rates of poverty/uninsured people under Greg Abbott. Now he’s going after the Blue Cities. We’re in a battle down here. sanantonioreport.org/san-antonio-...

Just saying. Quit demeaning Texans. There are many intelligent people here who fully understand what is going on. We are overrun with gerrymandering and ignorance.

Sometimes I just stop, shake my head, and think how ridiculous it is watching my country be destroyed by a demented old man just because some white people are afraid of the future.

Whose idea was it to name the facility near Anson, TX “bluebonnet “? Get that pretty wildflower name out of your mouth.

I think the funniest thing about the Ted Cruz Curse is he really won’t confine it to just a couple of teams; if you are a Texas school and you have a big game, there is a decent chance Ted is rolling in wearing your polo and bringing your doom with him

3.5 million people turned out yesterday. Not one Capitol building stormed, not one police officer attacked. #handsoff

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Trump's confidence game is falling apart. Three things we can do this week to fight back. substack.com/home/post/p-...

And a partridge in a pear tree….

Can he just shut up already! Yes a thousand times.

One of your best posts yet.

We are ruled by ignorant people.

I live where 30% of voters are Democrats.

Well that’s some Bolz.

If Trump starts a sentence with: "Everybody knows ..." whatever he says next, nobody knows it. And if Trump starts a sentence with: "Everybody likes my idea of ..." whatever he says next, nobody likes it, understands it, or thinks it's doable.

Good paint match.

Travesty.

Ouch

Over 100 ICE agents spent 5 hrs in Chicago last week, arresting only 2. In Denver & Aurora, CO, over 400 agents were dispatched for migrant violence linked to Tren de Aragua. After knocking on hundreds of doors, only 1 member was arrested. (NYP, ABC News)

No one says it better.

This book really enlightened me. A must read.

Yes, they can have Cruz.

Trump's freeze of federal grants and loans could be devastating – less money for public safety, health care, and education. This is ripping off hardworking Americans and will raise the cost of living. Democrats will fight this illegal order.

“WE WANT THE TEN COMMANDMENTS IN ALL SCHOOLS.” “But we don’t like that Christian lady who sounded like Jesus, talking about mercy.”

Once you understand that Trump’s underlying goal of virtually ALL of his actions is to WEAKEN the United States, everything he does will make sense.

Any chance there are three more Republicans in the Senate who care enough about the country to stop a wildly unqualified drunken lech from becoming the Secretary of Defense?

Trump pardoned a child molester.

DEI doesn’t mean hiring unqualified people—it means tearing down rigged systems that kept qualified talent out. Giving everyone a fair shot, breaking down barriers that have historically excluded talent. Diversity brings fresh perspectives, drives innovation, and reflects the world being served.

Trump Presidency in trouble on day one. People are just tired of it already. Inauguration ratings down 27% from Biden's and 20% from Trump's 2017. Trump's approval rating clocks in underwater at 47%. No honeymoon.

And Sunday School.

House Republicans are celebrating pardons issued to a bloodthirsty mob that violently assaulted police officers on January 6, 2021. What happened to backing the Blue? Far right extremists have become the party of lawlessness and disorder. Don’t ever lecture America again. About anything.

No words.

Have fun with this SNL.

Holy shit. Trump didn’t put his hand on the Bible when taking the oath of office.

Please Lord our God do not send us another pandemic.

If you turn on your TV today, turn it to ANY OTHER STATION except those showing the inauguration. Let's make sure the ratings for his unholy spectacle are tiny. 🍄 PASS IT ON.

"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”

The entire TikTok situation has been a total charade. Only the mindless goons won’t realise it. Trump rescues TikTok at the last minute. What a load of baloney.

Every decision Trump makes will be to serve his own interests, not the good of the country. Assess every action and policy accordingly.

Trump previously tried to ban Tik Tok himself with an executive order, but it was overturned by the courts.
