Proud of the students and faculty at UT for showing Hartzell and Abbott that they will not be intimidated.
Back at UT Austin for day two of protests. This one says it is both intended to support Gaza and to condemn the police response yesterday. The crowd is at least 5x larger than the crowd that showed up yesterday at this time. Peaceful, quiet. Very little law enforcement presence.

A true hero, refusing to submit, fighting these fascists by herself if she has to. We are with you Nicole!
There is one Democrat still locked into the House chamber because she refuses to sign her permission slip. Rep. Nicole Collier will be here until, well, I guess we’ll see. Members are really not happy with the individual DPS escorts. Say they are not free to move on their own.

We took the fight directly to Ken Paxton, and we won.

We've beat Ken Paxton in court twice this week. The futility of his political prosecution of Powered by People is now clear as day. And Ken's poll numbers — the whole reason he weaponized the AG's office against us in the first place — are sinking like a rock! I think everyone's looking forward to seeing this corrupt, lying thug deposed under oath.

They can't win on the merits of their policies or the character they present to this country. So they're trying to steal the election of 2026 in the summer of 2025. We have 15 months to stop them. Let's get to work.

You think the 15th appeals court judges appointed by Greg Abbott are working for me? You okay?
What we are witnessing in Texas right now is a constitutional crisis being orchestrated by activist judges on the Beto-loving Fifteenth Court of Appeals. Beto said, "f*** the rules," and these unelected justices—Scott Brister, Scott Field, and April Farris—are helping him do just that with his unlawful bribery scheme. What's worse is that the Texas Supreme Court just made a ruling refusing to stop the appeals court's insane decision to help Beto. We must stop Beto from buying off our politicians and the judicial activism allowing it to happen.

We beat Paxton again in the 15th Court of Appeals. Turns out you can’t cancel the First Amendment just because you don’t like what your political opponent is saying.

If we’re unable to organize politically, freely contest political decisions, peacefully and democratically vie for power, then we no longer live in a democracy. At that point, we’re once again subjects. That’s why we’re fighting so hard for our rights. houstonchronicle.com/opinion…
