Houston: the federal government is claiming that they put armed officers on your streets without body cameras and that they can shoot you in the street without providing any video footage of what happened and your mayor is lying and telling you the city can't even investigate it
The water crisis in South Texas just hit a breaking point. 📉
At least six towns—Taft, Ingleside, Aransas Pass, Three Rivers, Orange Grove, and Alice—have all issued disaster declarations in the last two weeks. The regional supply is failing, and demand is officially higher than what’s left in the reservoirs.
While small towns are begging for help, the priorities are clear: One Exxon-SABIC plastics plant nearby is burning through more water than all 300,000 residents of Corpus Christi combined.
The state says they need $174B for long-term water infrastructure, but they’ve only put up $20B. That’s a $154B gap while towns are literally being forced to drill emergency wells just to keep the taps running.
Corpus Christi is already projecting mandatory 25% cuts by September for residents and hospitals, but they're still protecting the industrial heavy-hitters to avoid "wrecking the economy."
How are residents being asked to cut back while corporations keep getting protected?

Going against Worthy and Etienne. Half PPR. Think I have a shot?
