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.

Here’s a calendar to show the days @SpeakerJohnson has cancelled in Congress. September 17 was canceled to avoid a vote on my Hegseth impeachment. The last two weeks in September were canceled to avoid a vote on releasing more Epstein files. He’s closing Congress to stop me.

Reminder: It would only take a handful of Republicans in Congress to stop this fucking madness. They are all complicit

“Tonight, I say this to my Republican colleagues who are defending the indefensible: There will come a day when Donald Trump is gone, but your dishonor will remain.”

Sheryl Crow speaks out after Trump’s UFC 250 event: “To stay quiet means to turn a blind eye. And so I am saying this. What happened last night on the lawn of the White House was disgraceful and void of decency. Powerful, rich people filled the lawn to watch a violent sport that ended with a vile and racist comment. All while the average American cannot afford healthcare, gas, and cost of living. Do not be fooled. This administration is corrupt and does not give a damn about the American people. It only cares about making money hand over fist at the expense and in spite of our democracy. If we continue to support this kind of distraction from reality, we are no better than them. Let's be better, America.”

They want you to forget. They don’t want you to see this.
Keep sharing this so we can’t forget what they did to us that day.

I just can’t imagine wanting an entire secure ballroom for one man and not wanting gun reform for every child in America.

This is very compelling! Pete Buttigieg just gets it. The sheer humanity in this clip is why I like this man so much, everyone should watch it.

Zero Republican Members of Congress have criticized Donald Trump for attacking Pope Leo XIV.
That includes over 100 Catholics.

Pope Leo has more courage and intestinal fortitude than all of the cowardly Republicans in Congress.
Amen. 🙏

Taylor: The day that I decided to quit that administration was the day when a mentor of mine from capitol hill had died. His name was John McCain. The flags were at half staff around the country, and the president was trying to call us in Australia on the other side of the world, to say, not put out a statement in honor of John McCain, but to say, raise the flags back up. I don't care if you agreed with John McCain or disagreed. It didn't matter like Bob Mueller, he served this country in uniform. He was a sitting united States senator. He deserved to be honored with the flags at half staff—for the president of the United States to be so petty, so small and petty, to tell us to raise the flags back up in an act of active dishonor, tells you everything you need to know about that man and his lack of integrity and character.
