Reporter: Ken Paxton has taken to calling you ‘Talafreako’
@JamesTalarico: If Ken Paxton is worried about freaks, he should stop giving Epstein-style sweetheart deals to pedophiles. This is the guy who just released Adam Hoffman from jail, an admitted child rapist, after one of Ken Paxton’s wealthy lawyer friends got involved in the case.
Ken Paxton even kept him off the sex offender registry. Adam Hoffman was supposed to serve 25 years to life, but instead he served less than a month. As of this week, he’s now back on our streets because of Ken Paxton’s corruption.
Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America, and it is costing Texans, it’s endangering our children, and it must end. The Epstein class has no place in Texas.
If New York City ran its schools like you ran Amazon, the teachers would be on welfare and the students would be peeing and pooping in plastic bags under their desks. What an idiotic thing to say.
Few groups or unions have led the fight or worked harder to pass Medicare for All than @NationalNurses.
Listen to what they have to say about politicians like Diana DeGette who pretend to support Medicare for All while being bankrolled by the very lobbies opposing it:
If Bernie's 5% annual wealth tax on billionaires had been enacted in 2012, Elon Musk would be worth less than $365 billion instead of the $834 billion that he's worth today. He'd still be the wealthiest man alive & every senior would have dental, vision & hearing under Medicare.
everyone please remember what Republicans are doing here — it’s important context for when Democrats win back Congress but then their leaders inevitably claim they can’t do anything via 50 votes and reconciliation
To be clear:
Trump didn’t “settle” with the IRS.
He controls the IRS and DOJ
He’s stealing $1.8 billion from taxpayers and laundering it to his political allies with no actual oversight.
This is a heist.
Mayor Todd Gloria is confronted during the press conference:
This is a direct result of your leadership. Our Muslim brothers and sisters have been talking to you for how long. You have to fucking listen to them.
Big money and the pro-genocide lobby are trying to undercut one of the most exciting and popular candidates running for Congress this cycle. Stand with Randy Villegas (@Villegas_CA22) in #CA22!

DCCC-recruited Democratic Assemblymember Jasmeet Bains, a fossil-fuel friendly moderate, looks to be in for an increasingly messy race in the top two primary for the chance to challenge #CA22 Republican David Valadao
