NEW: Six young people with Down syndrome will serve Pope Leo XIV’s Mass in Paris on Saturday.
The Mass comes as the Trump administration drafts a rule that could cut disability benefits for as many as 400,000 Americans who live with their families, and as the r-word returns to everyday MAGA speech, from Joe Rogan’s podcast to Wall Street trading desks.
On Thanksgiving Day 2025, the president himself called Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota “seriously retarded.” thelettersfromleo.com/p/six-…
Most data centers in TX are not reporting their water usage, and many of the ones that do are not being independently verified.
As TX Ag Commissioner, I will issue ag impact studies to reveal and verify all of their numbers
Who negotiated the 2 year Opec deal taking 9m barrels of oil off the market during Covid that caused the fuel prices to surge when people returned to work? That would be trump. He is actually responsible for the high prices under Biden and the high prices now. Gas is up now because Trump decided to play games in Iran and was woefully unprepared for the consequences.
GOP Rep. Max Miller is now suing his opponent for running this ad exposing his alleged abuse against women and children.
He would be really upset if you watched and shared it.
NEW AD: Ken Paxton loves to make false claims about James Talarico’s record on China.
But he’s been hiding his own.
Paxton took an all-expenses-paid trip to China to meet with Communist Party leaders — then took massive donations from China-linked real estate developers.
Talarico sat for hours with a seasoned TX Ranger testing & vetting him, answered every question, & ended up with an endorsement.
Paxton dodges subpoenas, asserts the 5th in filings, hides from depos, pays millions to avoid Q&A about his actions, flees his pressers, won’t debate.
SD 9 is a powerhouse of aviation innovation!
The German Luftwaffe has officially received their first F-35A Lightning II airplane, manufactured right here in our district.
Before serving in the Senate, I worked machining parts for military aircraft, so I know the skill, precision, and teamwork that go into every plane that leaves the production line.
That kind of craftsmanship, engineering, and innovation is what makes Texas a leader on the world stage and helps drive the economic success of our district and our state.
ICE has been going to parent picks ups after school at our local elementary schools and grabbing parents as well as our public library and everywhere else. They are pecking up anyone at these stops that looks Latino.
It’s got to end!
Our Latino community made Texas what it is, we’d be nothing without them.
I didn’t want to watch this because I knew it would hurt my heart… but I did and you should too. THIS is what MAGA voted for! This is the evil disgusting inhumane treatment they pursue for their “perfect America”. I’m so tired of watching the US become a Monster. 😢

Luis Ochoa is 17. He's also a U.S.
CITIZEN. This week, he was driving with another TEENAGE U.S. CITIZEN to submit paperwork to enlist in the MARINES when he was pulled over AND OUT OF HIS CAR by ICE🤬🤬
Thanktully, someone started recording.
This is the video. It's horrific. The boys are yelled at, BEATEN, and - when they repeatedly tell the agents THEY ARE CITIZENS — they're ignored.
According to Ochoa, one agent told him, "I don't give a damn. Your parents can't help you now."
Both teenagers were detained for approximately eight hours before being released.
They are minors.
They are U.S. citizens.
They were preparing to serve this country - yet their citizenship did not protect them from being beaten, pepper-sprayed, and detained by their own government.
This is what the Nazis did.
Uh weren’t YOU Governor when a Chinese millionaire businessman (Sun) bought over 100K acres of Texas land for a wind farm that Republicans now are blaming on Talarico ??? and now Gina ??? And weren’t you Attorney General (before you were Governor) when Sun began his venture?
Former federal judge Michael Luttig says Speaker Johnson will replace the House Clerk and refuse to seat elected Democrats in January. AlterNet America has the letter.

BREAKING: I’m releasing my “A Texas You Can Afford” Agenda ahead of the 90th Legislative Session.
I’ll be filing bills that make it easier to afford a home, see a doctor, put groceries on the table, find reliable childcare, and know you’re getting a fair deal when you spend your hard-earned money.
Working families should come first in Texas, not corporate interests or billionaire donors.
Under Greg Abbott, our property taxes have gone up 85% while he took millions in donations from billionaires and corporations.
If he wanted to lower taxes, he had plenty of chances to do so in the last 12 years he's been governor.
