I gotta retweet this shit yo!
The eugenic circus is coming to town. Next month, a downtown Austin hotel will host a conference centered on the natalist movement tied to white supremacy, nonsense "science," and Austin's own @elonmusk. Read all about it! By: @BrantBingamon & me t.ly/pFWKy

This actually happened. Amendment from @RepWalle to ensure State of Texas isn't in the business of putting children under the age of 11 in jail. But author "respectfully" opposes. #txlege

The next time you hear someone saying “moderate Republican House members” in TX…remember, they ALL just voted for HB4. They all agreed to marginalize and endanger other human beings. Not a single one of them is moderate. Being a moderate R is history from another time and place.

A video of neo-Nazis eating at Torchy's Tacos in Fort Worth went viral earlier this month. With a bit of sleuthing I was able to identify two of them, as well as two other Texas neo-Nazis responsible for antisemitic fliers. My latest for @TexasObserver. 1/ texasobserver.org/unmasking-…

🧵Last August, I was listening to a feed of a heated North Texas school board meeting while juggling my nightly dad duties. Which is why I was getting my 3-year-old to bed when I heard a mom make a shocking statement that @ahylton26 and I have now spent a year investigating. 1/

The big boss gotta at least fire Fuentes' friend. If he really wants to turn the page he needs to fire Stickland.
More lies and deflection from the Pale Horse gang. It is not in any conceivable way a "pro-Israel" company. "We will destroy the GOP before we allow another Zionist bootlicker to "represent us." You cannot claim to be "pro-Israel" and put Ella on your payroll- period. #txlege

Replying to @GregAbbott_TX
@GregAbbott_TX is outraged by false report that @LeanderISD is refusing to hand out the Constitution. Unclear how familiar Abbott is with the Constitution, given # of unconstitutional bills he's signed, but whatever @BrantBingamon t.ly/fJqg8

In his tele townhall, @GregAbbott_TX says if vouchers don't pass in an October special, he’ll call another, and then he’ll send it to the voters in GOP primaries: "There’s any easy way to get it done, and there’s a hard way. Either way, I’m in this to win this.” #txlege

A thread of questions I sent the @TDCJ that they did not answer - How frequently will inmates have access to respite during the lockdown? 🧵 shorturl.at/bchMY

Threats of violence from Moms for Liberty
These two things are connected.

Voucher update: I am hearing Abbott's office is dug in on vouchers. ISDs who want more money (limited as it is) are going to have to agree to vouchers, and not just the voucher lite program the House is drafting. #txlege #txed

Of course Ted would have this outlook. A Bitcoin mining company was just paid $31.7 million by ERCOT to stop using energy during peak demand, while the rest of us are told to curb our usage for no compensation and then we are charged more for what we do use.

It is telling that Ken Paxton doesn’t have the courage to swear an oath and testify about what happened here. He refused to be deposed in the whistleblower case and now won’t even set foot in the Texas Senate. Innocent people don’t behave this way. #txlege

It's almost like Republican leaders don't care about mothers, the unborn, the recently born, cancer patients, or the elderly.
