Sad to say, I am glad my #veteran parents are not alive to see this news. #TrumpIsATraitorAndCriminal

Ken Paxton failed to disclose he secretly purchased real estate worth millions of dollars in Hawaii, Florida, and Utah.

Experts say this is a direct violation of Texas state ethics rules.

@DougWahl1 I’m disappointed with both Tillis and Cornyn. 🤬

@scottbraddock Haha! DJT’s actions just mean he is not getting a financial benefit from those companies. 😂

The slush fund isn't dead. And the near-immunity deal for Trump and his family is alive and kicking.

A new poll of the Attorney General race shows MAGA Mayes Middleton leading Nathan Johnson by just 1%.

Middleton has already spent millions of his own fortune trying buy this seat. Chip in to help defeat him: https://t.co/DSgmgTEEXB

Dan Patrick’s priorities are out of line with Texans. It’s time for new leadership in the Texas Senate.

.@JamesTalarico on Texas officially banning THC:

“This bill is insane.

Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so. Texans will still use THC — but instead of getting it safely from a local small business, they’ll go back to getting it from the black market. From the drug cartels.

This ban is a gift to the cartels.

We are now telling full-grown adults how to live their lives. This is the nanny state at its worst; this is big government at its worst. 

Instead of fully funding our schools, guaranteeing healthcare, or making childcare more affordable — this Legislature is focused on banning a product that gives people a little peace.

We’re making people’s lives harder, not easier.

I want to leave you with a quote: ‘It is time to end needless arrests and incarcerations of adults for small amounts of marijuana for personal use.’ That wasn’t a Democrat. That was President Donald Trump.

To my Republican colleagues, I’m asking you to oppose the cartels, stand with President Trump, and vote no on this insane bill.”

@kylegriffin1 @CherylCassel1 This is pure nonsense and proves both Cornyn and Tillis didn't deserve to be re-elected anyway. Throwing the Epstein victims overboard will never be forgotten! Blanche is likely shredding more Epstein files for Trump! Corrupt👎🏼!

Ken Paxton said the Uvalde shooting was part of a “plan” by “God.”

21 elementary school children and teachers were murdered in the shooting.

@TheRickWilson Anyone notice that this dude has no clue about what line dancing is — what’s playing in the background of Ella’s C&W song? Benny is on Mt. Everest.

Blessings from a grateful nation to Jeanne Gibson, a.k.a. Rosie the Riveter. Rest in peace and joy.

[Steve Clemans @Steve09812]

It is with profound sorrow that we bid farewell to Jeanne Gibson, our beloved Rosie the Riveter, has passed away today, July 29, 2026, at the remarkable age of 100. With her passing, we don't simply mourn the loss of a beloved friend, we honor the life of an American hero whose courage, dedication, and unwavering spirit helped shape history, and will continue to inspire generations to come.📷📷
At just 18 years old, Jeanne left her home in Minnesota in the summer of 1944 and answered her nation's call, becoming a welder at Todd Pacific Shipyards in Seattle. With determination and grit, she helped build destroyers that strengthened the Allied war effort during World War II. She later continued her service with the Army Transportation Corps in Juneau, Alaska, embodying the resilience and patriotism of the Greatest Generation.
Yet Jeanne's legacy extended far beyond the war. She earned her Ph.D., dedicated three decades to teaching, earned her private pilot license, and spent the rest of her life proving that courage, determination, and purpose know no age.
In 2024, Jeanne and her fellow Rosies were collectively awarded the Congressional Gold Medal, one of our nation's highest civilian honors, recognizing the extraordinary women whose sacrifices and determination helped secure victory during World War II.
To all of us at Pacific Historic Parks, Jeanne was far more than a Rosie, she was family. She traveled to Hawaiʻi time and again to share her remarkable story with visitors, inspire local students, and ensure that the sacrifices of the Home Front would never be forgotten. Her radiant smile, generous heart, and boundless enthusiasm touched every life she encountered.
She had a special gift for encouraging young girls, reminding them that no dream was too big and no obstacle too great. Through her words and her example, she inspired generations to believe in themselves and pursue lives of courage, service, and purpose.
Jeanne remained a tireless advocate for preserving the legacy of the Rosies, volunteering at Rosie the Riveter WWII Home Front National Historical Park on "Rosie Fridays" and ensuring the stories of the women who helped win the war would continue to inspire future generations.
In one of life's poignant moments, just days before her passing, Jeanne was celebrated with a Wall of Honor banner at the park she loved so dearly and recognized during a San Jose Earthquakes halftime ceremony honoring Bay Area heroes. It was a fitting tribute to a woman whose life was defined by selfless service, quiet strength, and extraordinary grace.
Though Jeanne has taken her final flight, her legacy will never fade. It lives on in every story she shared, every young person she inspired, every life she touched, and in the enduring example of courage she leaves behind.
Our hearts are with Jeanne's family, her fellow Rosies, and all who were blessed to know and love her.
Rest in peace, Jeanne Gibson.
Thank you for answering the call when your country needed you most. Thank you for showing generations what courage looks like. We will remember you always

@TRUMP_IS_STUPID @DougWahl1 Prayers that you live a very long time without pain. 🙏🏻

Anthony Fauci saved my life and if you’re reading this, he saved yours too.

Today’s vile, witch hunt was yet another embarrassment visited upon us by this administration and this Congress.

I filmed RFK Jr (who gave Dr. Fauci’s personal diary to Rand Paul) at this anti-mandate rally a few years ago. They had photographs of Fauci dressed as Mengele. People were wearing yellow stars and connecting the mandate with the Holocaust.

Rfk even evoked Anne Frank. He equated Fauci with the rise of fascism to people have no idea what that means. I was born in Washington DC during World War II.

My uncle was shot down by the Nazis when he was 20 years old in 1942 it’s hard to believe it only took one generation of lost eyewitnesses for it to take hold here.

[nancykennedy* @nancychatter]

Who still believes that Donald Trump egregiously mismanaged the COVID response, interfering and second guessing scientific advisors at every turn.
His incompetence proved fatal for at least 1 million people.
At Trump's rallies openly discouraging supporters from wearing masks..
RIP Herman Cain & many others from rallies alone.
Trump minimized the danger to public health throughout 2020 & handed Biden a freaking MESS...

[JJinTEXAS @JJinBlueTexas]

@DougWahl1 I do!
