This man is lying to you. Texas is 43rd in Education. Massachusettes is #1 in Education and they spend $17,058 per student. Texas pays a little over $6,000. GREG LIES! Private education getting vouchers isn't going to solve the problem, only make it worse.

[James Talarico @jamestalarico]

An out-of-state billionaire gave Greg Abbott $12 million to pass a private school voucher scam.

I'm joining my colleagues in requesting Mr. Jeff Yass testify before the Public Education Committee.

Texans deserve to know who's behind this scam.

5 reminders to improve your social media experience:

1. No one is owed your engagement.

2. Asserting boundaries online is equally important to offline.

3. Harassment is unacceptable.

4. Avoid echo chambers to strengthen your views.

5. Find humor in absurdity.

@TXRandy14 A little ditty for the kingmaker, eh?

[ProPublica @propublica]

New: The senator flagged thousands of National Science Foundation grants for using words like “female” and “diversify.” A ProPublica analysis found numerous examples of projects caught up in his crude method for identifying research he calls “woke.” https://t.co/FpmRKIep1k

Elon Musk, who calls millions of US federal workers "incompetent", says he "accidentally cancelled" Ebola prevention.

[Tom Malinowski @Malinowski]

Whoops, I accidentally cancelled Ebola prevention!

Doh, I fired the the bird flu experts!

Oops-a-daisy, I stopped the Lutheran Charities foster care and adoption services!

My bad, I sacked the nuclear weapons workers!

Now can I have access to your tax returns?

[Really American 🇺🇸 @ReallyAmerican1]

BREAKING: In a jaw-dropping admission, Elon Musk reveals during Trump's cabinet meeting "one of the things we accidentally canceled very briefly was Ebola prevention." Americans should be very worried about DOGE's insane mistakes.

[MM  @adgirlMM]

Just a reminder to the maga crowd cheering on these mass firings...

These are scientists. Park rangers.
Disabled Veterans. Humanitarians. Civil servants.

They are human.
They have bills to pay. Families who depend on them. Children. Many of them took pride in their work. Some were just getting started in their careers.

Losing a job and financial hardship is not funny. It impacts every member of the family. It impacts self worth. It impacts the economy.

Finding satisfaction in the indiscriminate firing of tens of thousands of Americans at the hands of a punch drunk billionaire is not only cruel, it's unAmerican.

This is not patriotism.

[Gene Trevino @GenoVeno73]

So, Republican @CoryMillsFL has been having an affair with another woman for over a year behind his wife's back, assaults his side chic, admitted to police that the situation escalated from verbal to physical, and instructed her to lie about — and he's not being arrested.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Medicaid provides 40% of the funding for community health centers.

Medicaid supports 2 out of 3 people in nursing homes.

Medicaid provides health care to 41 million children.

Trump and his Republican friends want to enact massive cuts to the program.

We won't let them.

[Jesus is King @ProseccoLiquido]

Trump forgot the Epstein file

Release the files

[I Smoked A Predilection For Nipples @BlackKnight10k]

The number 1 reason the Trump administration can't release the Epstein files:

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

Trump promised on day one he would bring prices down.

More than a month in and gas, groceries, rent, cars, and eggs all cost more...

And yet what are Republicans focused on today?

Gutting Medicaid so they can give tax cuts for billionaires.

Trump fires competent Texas General, hires lower ranked Yes Man

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

WOW! This actually just happened!

The Monitors were just hacked at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to display an AI video of Trump licking Elon Musk’s toes.

The caption over it read: “LONG LIVE THE REAL KING.”

[Ella @egreer559]

Fuck kootenai county sheriff Norris!!
The event's emcee, Ed Bejarana, mocked Borrenpohl as a "little girl" and dismissed dissenting voices, declaring, "Your voice is meaningless right now."

The KCRCC is a far-right faction known for promoting extremist policies.
