It's funny how Greg Abbott and Ken Paxton are running on "Fixing Texas" when the Republicans have controlled the entire state for 30 goddamn years

Elon Musk donated $500k to Greg Abbott’s campaign, and then Greg Abbott gave him a $2B tax break. It pays to be a Greg Abbott donor. That’s who he works for- not us. houstonchronicle.com/politic…

OH CRAP. WE HAVE NO HANDS TEAM.

Somebody said this was a bad run defense. Coulda fooled me.

It is a basic principle of American democracy that the government can’t selectively target individuals simply because of their political beliefs or what they say. But that’s exactly what the Trump Administration is doing to Congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota. To understand why this is so appalling, it’s important to know the facts. Congresswoman Omar came to this country with her father when she was 12 years old. Five years later, her father became a naturalized citizen. If Ilhan had been 18 at the time, she would have had to apply for citizenship separately. But because she was 17, she became a naturalized citizen automatically. Congresswoman Omar went on to graduate from college, work as a community organizer, become the first Somali-American legislator elected to public office in the U.S., and win a seat in Congress. There, she has been one of the Trump Administration’s fiercest critics, which has led the president to repeatedly single her out as someone who he believes does not belong in this country. Now the Administration is actively trying to deport Congresswoman Omar, seemingly based solely on the unsubstantiated theory that she was actually 18 when her father was naturalized, and therefore is not a citizen. Federal agents have raided her home, confiscated personal records, and seized her phone — all to try and uncover a nonexistent smoking gun from 20 years ago that will somehow make their case. Think about that. The full weight of the federal government is being brought down on a law-abiding elected official because she has dared to criticize the president. And it’s not the first time this has happened. Under President Trump, the Justice Department has repeatedly gone after those he considers his political enemies — from the Attorney General of New York, to the former head of the FBI, to members of the Federal Reserve. In those cases, the prosecutions either stalled or were dismissed for having no basis in law, and the same is likely to happen in this case. But not before Congresswoman Omar’s life has been turned upside down, her legal bills have piled up, and she’s been forced to spend time fighting unsubstantiated charges instead of serving the people of Minnesota. The fact that any president, or any administration, is willing to engage in such transparent efforts to intimidate someone should outrage all Americans, regardless of how they feel about Congresswoman Omar’s political views. Because if this becomes the new normal, there’s no reason to believe it will stop with her — or that future presidents, in either party, won’t do the same.

Mark Zuckerberg’s Instagram suspended the No Kings Instagram account for today’s No Kings' day of action. Larry Ellison’s TikTok has shut down the account promoting Alex Gibney’s Elon Musk documentary. Elon Musk promoted the fake story about James Talarico on his X while donating over $150 million to help Ken Paxton. Your reminder that Trump’s billionaire allies control what you see on TikTok, X, Twitch, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and YouTube — and they have a vested interest in making sure Dems don’t take the majority, so Trump isn’t investigated.

Mass murderers.

One of the worst weeks for U.S.–Ukraine relations in recent memory. I'm outraged by the Trump administration's decisions and their potential consequences for Ukrainian lives. America should stand with democracies, not dictatorships.

Trump says our children go to school and "come home with a sex change" when in reality our children go to school and come home in a body bag because Republicans think everyone should own an AR-15

Thanks @MadDogUnleashed for that great walk down memory lane with my favorite Brewer Paul Molitor. It was awesome and I remember 1982 as well. Thanks for reminding me of some of the details. You're the best.

Hey @HellerSports - in case I don't make the wrap up show I want to know why we shouldn't have pinch hit Vaughn for Yelich. I like the righty lefty matchup much better and let's face it Yeli isn't exactly killing it. He rolls a lot of soft ground balls just like he did. - Daren
