Go to the memorial where ICE killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and you'll find hundreds of "I VOTED" stickers, and messages like these:
"I voted for you."
"Por usted"
"Voté por todos los Lorenzos"
"This is for you Mr. Salgado."

Walter Koenig made Star Trek history w/his voice cameo in the 2023 series finale of "Picard."
He didn't appear as Pavel Chekov; but rather President Anton Chekov, leader of the United Federation of Planets; the son of his original character.
The name was a tribute to Anton Yelchin, who'd died in 2016 and had played Chekov in the JJ Abrams films.
This made Walter the last of the original cast to appear in a Star Trek series.

An Ohio attorney who donated to Trump's campaigns has had his law license suspended after being convicted of voting in both Ohio and Florida in two elections. The attorney argued it was accidental, but a judge didn't buy it. mrf.lu/2HPv8

Is it normal for an anonymous Wyoming LLC that sent mass mailers impersonating a transgender advocacy group to hire the lawyer who defended TX Attorney General Ken Paxton from impeachment in response to a court filing seeking to depose people who could unmask the LLC's owners

This one hurts. Walter was a kind, humble and loving man…and a friend. He will be missed by so many. My dad is joined with his friend in heaven.

Crushing blow to Turkey at the UN!
Greece, the EU, Cyprus, Egypt, Bahrain and the UAE have declared the so-called Turkish-Libyan memorandum null and void.
Voiced by Hellenic Foreign Minister Giorgos Gerapetritis, the six stress it remains wholly invalid and contrary to international law, despite its recent ratification by the Libyan parliament.
Such practices, they warn, pose an extremely grave danger to the international legal order. Six voices, one united verdict.

New @theoelections site has a great graphical user interface, GUI, showing the turnout in the election statewide that I expanded for SE Texas. Obviously, Red is Republican voting precincts, Blue is Democrat, but it shows the tremendous record midterm turnout in Harris County underway that I'll guess hits above 700,000 early voters today. (That's 624k votes in the ballot can 🗳 by Sunday, and at least another 75k I'm expecting today in Monday's total). That will take us through 9 days of early voting, and with 4 more to go I think Harris County Clerk @TeneshiaHudspe1's estimate of a Million early voters made on the @KSEVRadio Amigos show Friday is a pretty safe bet this week!
"Blueberries Cities" like Beaumont, College Station, Galveston, and the 3rd largest in the Country, Houston, are competing for shares of this record turnout with effectively "Red Counties", and a line of precincts from West Houston, the Villages, East Memorial, and River Oaks. It's Quite a contest of wills playing out at the polls and it shows that every vote counts.
Trends that are pronounced:
Republican turnout is stuck at or below 27% by primary voter identification. That's not good news for "R-candidates" because they have to take a HUGE share of Independent voters to break 50%.
Democrat share by primary voters has fallen to 42%; however, Independent share of the total is up to 31%+ and rising, and replaces lower the Dem share, which is good news for "D-candidates" even those are not necessarily "straight ticket" voters.
Assuming 1 million Early Voters in Harris County, that could add up to 1.33 Million or 1.5 Million total County votes by election Night. That makes a BIG Difference in statewide races in Texas! More to come!!

My late colleague and brilliant co U.S. Science Envoy with me in the Obama Admin the @Caltech Nobel Laureate in Chemistry Ahmed Zewail would disagree. God rest his soul he didn’t have to endure this, and of course RFK Jr forgets that it was the Arab scientists of the Middle Ages who kept Aristotle, Hippocrates, Galen alive to hand it down in the Renaissance.

This book is really damning for Kushner. It claims the UAE paid Kushner $50 million to get Rex Tillerson fired as Secretary of State.

Chief Judge finds that @GregAbbott_TX has "obstructed, and continues to obstruct."
Adds that Abbott's "conduct is illegal" and "injures the public interest."
So much for all that law and order.
New: Gov. Greg Abbott must let his political opponent, Gina Hinojosa, review more than 1,000 pages of his unredacted communications with Elon Musk, a Travis County Dem judge rules.
Abbott likely to appeal before Hinojosa reviews anything. #txlege

1/n Many thanks to @PamelaBrownCNN for hosting me on @CNNSitRoom explaining the recent history of H5N1 how it was introduced into the U.S. wild bird population in 2022; got introduced into hens and caused the price of eggs went up; then in early 2024 it transitioned into dairy cattle but transmission to humans was prevented through milk pasteurization. And now mink…

So as I headed to Ingram for the first time in March, I wanted to know who the local faces of the national immigration crackdown were.
Who was driving the black Dodge Charger?

Our country has just lost its soul. Undocumented immigrants do not have due process rights that entitle them to bond hearings during deportation proceedings, according to a pivotal ruling from the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. This is a darkest day in our country’s history, a country we once proudly called immigrant nation. l.smartnews.com/p-8K55AkaA/7…

A one-stoplight TX town got in bed with ICE for $$ and started pulling over every other car and detaining Hispanics. 10% of the town is gone now, and businesses are struggling. The town cop has to look over his shoulder in public now.
