"If I tell you a goat can pull a train, hook him up," Mayor John Whitmire told Houston City Council. The deeper message is crystal clear: keeping promises matters. True to his word, the mayor has prioritized public safety, delivering our new contract & eight years of back pay.

I hear Republicans complaining about $20,000 in student debt forgiveness. Funny, I didn't hear those complaints when Trump declared bankruptcy 6 times & had $287 million in loans forgiven by big banks. The GOP l-o-v-e-s socialism for the rich, rugged individualism for the rest.

Mayor @SylvesterTurner and @HoustonTX continue to waste millions of taxpayer dollars fighting the will of voters. We are hopeful that the TX Supreme Court will finally stop this madness and our members will finally be able to negotiate the contract they deserve! @FirefightersHOU

For a “pro union” politician, he sure has done a lot of anti union things.

Those three boxes contain much more than 20,000+ voter signatures. They also contain hope for an end to the taxpayer-funded lawsuits and 4-year war against Houston firefighters and their families. The petitions for a vote on binding arbitration are now with the city secretary.

Ok I’m gonna start posting again.

But seriously y’all should take a break from social media it does wonders for mental health.

Krugman -- Republicans assert that they've become the party of the working class, but the truth is that they're continuing to wage a war against workers.

The latest evidence: Republicans complain that benefits to the unemployed are far too generous https://t.co/AeuM2zZGpB

The hacker reappeared about 1:30 p.m., this time taking over the computer, opening the plant’s control system software. After ratcheting up the water’s sodium hydroxide level from 100 parts per million to 1,100 parts per million, the intruder departed. https://t.co/pl8RSX4jfy

What we’re witnessing in real time is what happens when state leaders spend years focused on bathrooms and Chic-fil-a rather than actual issues of state governance like infrastructure and energy.

Texas needs real, honest leadership now.
