This sure sounds like an implicit admission that they plan to wait till after the election to sell the park to Musk

On if he supports selling Boca Chica State Park to SpaceX, Gov. @GregAbbott_TX punts and touts his record of adding parkland: “What I know is that that's not coming up for a vote any time soon, and I don't know what the details are” that Texas Parks and Wildlife is considering.

Rising ESG complaints against Japan's megabanks (@mufgbk_official, @smbc_midosuke, @mizuhobank) are no longer isolated incidents – they point to a systemic failure in risk management. To protect affected communities and shareholders, banks need mandatory board-level oversight.

Yesterday, we protested against SpaceX's "Space Fest" in downtown Brownsville. Elon Musk's SpaceX rockets are destroying our homes, polluting the environment, and colonizing our community. We don't want their festival in our town. – at Cameron Park, TX

In FernGully: The Last Rainforest (1992), Tim Curry recorded the song “Toxic Love” in a single day. He then improvised many of the character’s sinister laughs and vocal flourishes. The result is one of the most memorable villain performances in history.

If you live in Laredo or the RGV, the state water system is gambling with your life. They've let the reservoirs get so low that just 1-2 years of bad drought could wipe them out entirely. Twice in the last four years, you've been just months away from your taps turning off.

Activist Autumn Hill was convicted on terrorism charges for attending a protest outside a Texas ICE facility, where a police officer was shot and wounded. Hill had already left the protest when the shooting occurred, but she was still sentenced to 50 years in prison. "I'm absolutely being imprisoned for a political agenda," Hill told Democracy Now! from the Johnson County Corrections Facility.
