Keeping an eye on Williamson County and Texas

[Valerie Gonzalez @ValOnTheBorder]

Migrant deaths, traffic stops, and racial profiling — some issues addressed by members of @LUPE_rgv, @lupevotes, and Border Network for Human Rights @border_human, before state senators during a hearing on Gov. Greg Abbott’s Operation Lonestar.

They called for its termination.

1/5 - Was he WRONG to be so aggressive attacking Abbott?

“For all the debates we have about voter suppression, that, that NEGATIVITY and NASTINESS of politics is one of the biggest voter suppression things that there is”

Having trouble viewing your ballot on the screen? Or your ballot doesn’t match the sample one from home? Polling place not open? The poll watcher making you uncomfortable or trying to get you to leave? That’s all* VOTER SUPPRESSION.

And the mothers aren’t going to stand for it.

Baseball's World Series Shame: For the first time since 1950 (since Jackie Robinson's 4th season) the number of African-American players in this year's "Fall Classic" will be ZERO.

Plus: WHY do political things keep getting worse?

[Jay Leeson 🏴‍☠️ @jayleeson]

Especially true in West Texas— let’s burn down the farms, the schools, healthcare— all so media types can approach $50,000 only to see their listeners migrate from caved Main Streets and wages.

Good plan.

[Pastors for Children @pastors4txkids]

Listen, Texas teachers. Dedicated, hardworking, underpaid Texas teachers:

@GregAbbott_TX thinks you teach our kids to hate our country.

Of course it’s a lie. He knows it. He tells it to rile up his #txed-hating base.

You can stop this false witness.

How? Don’t vote for him.

TONIGHT: We're going LIVE with @LukeWarfordTX on TikTok! 🚂

What in the world is the Railroad Commissioner? What are the early voting vibes?

[Texas Democratic Party @texasdemocrats]

Permitless carry was a disaster of a bill when @GregAbbott_TX signed it, and it’s a disaster of a law now that it’s in effect.

Cops think it’s a horrible idea. It’s proliferating our streets with guns and killing Texans.

But hey — whatever it takes to buy NRA donors… right?

[Pastors for Children @pastors4txkids]

Before you vote, find out who wants to take your public tax dollars from YOUR #txed schools to subsidize a private ed voucher program in Texas.

@danpatrick is #txlege’s chief voucher-pusher. Retire him & the “voucher vultures” go away.

Greg Abbott chose to allow people to carry guns in public without a background check, training, or permit.

Now the number of mass shootings in Texas is up by more than 60% and gun violence is the leading cause of death for kids and teens.

Abbott makes us less safe.

[Pastors for Children @pastors4txkids]

The current state of Texas according to @DanPatrick?

Schools as centers of pornography.

Socialist teachers brainwashing our children.

Crime rampant in the streets.

According to him, Texas is an absolute mess on his watch.

Why would you re-elect him?

@CollierForTexas #txed

[Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell]

You looked the other way when teenagers were raped. We don’t need your crime takes.

[Pastors for Children @pastors4txkids]

The @DanPatrick program of fearmongering on full display in this video.

He says he’s for teachers but we all know that’s a lie.

Listen to him call our dedicated #txed schoolteachers “socialists” and “leftists”.

This man is dangerous. Fire him now. Vote for @CollierForTexas!

[Texas Democratic Party @texasdemocrats]

Just a reminder that after @TexasGOP gerrymandering, this district (#TX15) became Trump +3.

Yet we’re tied in the district.

Even with the lies. Even with the misinformation. Even with the flood of GOP dark money. Even with Republican gerrymandering.

Let’s go win this thing.

[Truth by Texas @TruthxTexas]

Texans *literally* cannot afford another 4 Years of our Republican Gov Greg Abbott

[Kurt Eichenwald @kurteichenwald]

New on my Substack: Most GOPrs believe Democrats want to abort babies as late as seconds before birth. 25% believe dems kidnap kids, take them underground, sexually abuse them & drink their blood. These disturbed people cannot control our government. https://t.co/xi98Xi8Q9S
