@politikazam At least your bed is made.

Hey @AdrianFCastillo

Whose House?

[Adrian F. Castillo @AdrianFCastillo]

@SHPawdcast That’s why you gotta yell it in the Grand Canyon, like I did.

@HistMedPhD @YouTube I was sworn to secrecy until it officially launched! 😅

If there’s one thing I want ambassadors to take away from the program it is: we can all learn from each other. We have to learn from each other if we want a better society. #Houston

@HistMedPhD Just two friends hanging out at Petra. Can’t wait for the moment we are able to return.

San Antonio’s D1 is finally getting the leadership it needs and deserves. Congrats, @MarioBravo!

This @nytimes article reads as #Netanyahu's political obituary. That makes me nervous because if there's anything we should know about Israel's longest-serving PM, it's that he is a political genius. Never count him out. https://t.co/3LmyynsMq0

[Adrian F. Castillo @AdrianFCastillo]

Possibly the dawn of a new political era in #Israel. One that does not include #Netanyahu. I’m interested to see how such an ideologically diverse govt would look and function.

BREAKING: Naftali Bennett will give a statement at 8PM local time and announce his intention to form a” change government” with opposition leader Yair Lapid to oust Netanyahu

Representation has always been lopsided in San Antonio, and not just at the anchor desk.

Since Texas independence in 1836, San Antonio has had just 4 Latino mayors. 4 Latino mayors in a majority Latino city.

We have lots to work on in San Antonio. We need more mentorship.

[SAAHJ @saahj]

🚨NEW: We conducted a diversity audit of all San Antonio anchors in four general market TV stations.

What we found was unacceptable: Only 25% of anchors were Latino -- in a city that’s 65% Latino.

"...the prime minister’s long-established mode of operation: exploit crisis to assert his centrality..." Israelis will never be able to live in true peace as long as Netanyahu is PM. He has no interest in resolving the conflict. It's politically expedient. https://t.co/sVnB3Z3fmm

The Texas Lege is one step closer to solving homelessness. 🤡

[Greg Abbott @GregAbbott_TX]

The Texas Senate PASSED the statewide homeless camping ban.

One step closer to my desk for signing!

Thank you @DrBuckinghamTX, @VoteGiovanni, and the #txlege.

An excellent piece from @shadihamid on the Gaza crisis. A cease-fire will bring an end to rockets, but it will not solve the conflict. He explains why in the @TheAtlantic.

[Shadi Hamid @shadihamid]

I have a new piece in @TheAtlantic today. This is my attempt to carefully outline my position on the Gaza crisis and lay out the broader context that brought us to this point. There are two conflicting narratives. I try to make sense of where they diverge. https://t.co/r5vazoWUh0

[Adrian F. Castillo @AdrianFCastillo]

Is anyone really surprised the conflict with the #Palestinians has given #Netanyahu a political lifeline? He knew what he was doing. He's a political mastermind. Read more on the political situation from @NeriZilber in @ForeignPolicy. https://t.co/1AoRY6KAP5

The owner of the building asked the Israeli Army for more time before the strike to allow the media to move out its equipment. The army said “no.”

[Adrian F. Castillo @AdrianFCastillo]

In his latest piece in @ForeignPolicy, @stevenacook argues the conflict is over identity. So much truth to this. #Israelis and #Palestinians have never been more alienated from each other. Policies have made them strangers, while living on the same land. https://t.co/6S7BrrF3qM
