Texas was built by hope. By people who had no business believing — but believed anyway.
To every Texan who’s ever wondered if anyone in power is paying attention: We are taking our state back.
Because a little bit of hope is a dangerous thing.

Ossoff: It’s been amazing to watch this White House melt down over this all week. And about Natalie Harp, these White House staffers are adults, public officials paid by the taxpayer, with immense power in positions of public trust. And whether it’s Natalie Harp printing out Donald Trump’s daily dose of delusion and flattery, or Peter Navarro steering taxpayer-funded loans to Trump family investments, or Pete Hegseth deluding the president daily into deepening this quagmire in the Middle East, no one cares about their feelings.
The sailors on the Lincoln are fighting his war, a war based on lies, while he plays with his new ballroom, flies around on a jet given to him by a foreign prince, and retreats into this circle of sycophantic aides who tell him every day what he wants to hear, not what he needs to hear.
This entire White House is responsible for lying the country into war, and for the rest of their careers, they will be known for having participated in this obscenity.

No words.
He was one of the heroes at Pearl Harbor.
The Military was segregated.
He was awarded a few medals for his bravery that day. The first black man to be so in the Navy.
But sure, name it after Trump. A draft-dodging felon. Got it!

"Instead of leading the rush to strip mine the ocean floor, our policymakers in D.C. should be working to secure a permanent ban on ocean mining — protecting our oceans forever — before irreversible damage is done."

"After the city of Roanoke said it incorrectly installed 30 Flock “Raven” gunshot detectors, it says 80% of them have been removed, and on Monday the city council reversed an earlier decision and ended the use of such audio devices."

This isn't journalism, folks.
This is straight up, bending over, complete capitulation.
The guy who badgered Biden, who wrote a whole nasty book about him, said to trump "Well I'm on a normal path right here, sir."
Fuck you, @jaketapper.🖕🏽

Dave Matthews: “This father and grandfather who was murdered by ICE in Houston, Texas. Then they say he’s not even the guy they were looking for. Well then don’t pull the trigger you assholes. It just makes me mad. I want to send this to the memory of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo”

As Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche fired me for doing my job, then subjected me and my family to months of retaliation. My story is one of many reasons the Senate should not confirm Blanche again. Read and share my letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee. lawyeroyer.com/p/my-letter-t…

Speaker Gingrich was too busy cheating on his dying wife to speak out when Rudy Giuliani asked New Yorkers to do this in the 1990s.

This is the Republican nominee for Governor in Colorado. Weird how there isn’t a national media panic about the freaks Republicans are backing!

So embarrassing!
United States Attorney Jeanine Pirro was unable to answer when a reporter pressed her on how the Department of Justice could justify charging someone with vandalizing the pool while simultaneously pardoning hundreds of January 6 terrorists.

"Loitering is not permitted in this area," an audio recording sternly warns, as uniformed National Guard troops patrol Washington's iconic, algae-plagued reflecting pool. "Please proceed to a designated location."
Journalist Amanda Moore's dystopian video, shot last weekend just steps from the Lincoln Memorial, instantly went viral—a perfect 8-second encapsulation of American democracy under Donald Trump. Amanda has spent the past 18 months documenting the chaos and brutality of the administration's militarized takeovers and immigration raids in cities across the country. Her footage has been shocking, often horrifying. But it's never before been quite so absurd. (Well, maybe once.)
In her latest video report for Mother Jones, Amanda takes us on a tour of the Trumpified National Mall as the nation attempts to celebrate its 250th birthday. Not far from the reflecting pool's nanobubblers and security theater, there's a very different scene: Trump's Great America State Fair. When Amanda visited this marquee anniversary event, she found a dearth of visitors, a shortage of napkins, and a decaying model of the triumphal arch the president wants to build across the Potomac.
The symbolism here is about as subtle as a Jon McNaughton painting. If I hadn't seen Amanda's reporting, I never would have believed it was real.

Black people are 19% of the VA population but account for 47.7% of all 375 public consumption tickets since legalization.
375 is a very low number, but the retail compromise increases the penalty for what is a low public safety risk & maintain disparities
Keep the fine at $25!
INBOX: @thcjusticenow, @JusticeFwdVa analysis of “public consumption of weed” charges since legalization shows 47% of tickets were given to Black Virginians despite being 19% of pop.
