Here is the Republican Party’s ad attacking Paxton.

Dems should just run this ad.

Funny little hacks.

[Chapman @io619]

Creative and fitting

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

Three billionaires just bought a House seat for $32 million.

Paul Singer. John Paulson. Miriam Adelson.

They funded a super PAC that ran an AI-generated deepfake showing Rep. Thomas Massie in a fake “throuple” with two Democratic women. The disclaimer that it was AI showed for 4 seconds.

AIPAC and the Republican Jewish Coalition spent millions more.

The President personally visited the district.

The Defense Secretary traveled to Kentucky the day before the vote.

Yesterday, Massie lost by 10,035 votes.
The lawmaker who wanted the Epstein files released lost.

The lawmaker who opposed the Iran war lost. The lawmaker who voted against the spending bill lost. Three billionaires. One Cabinet Secretary on the road. A sitting President campaigning against a member of his own party. $32 million.

That’s not how primaries used to work.

That’s how primaries work now.

@FT Well, that’s convenient. His own government granted him this deal. I’m mean, it’s the least he could do for himself.

Trump has endorsed Ken Paxton for US Senate in Texas.

Paxton was impeached by his own party for bribery and corruption, said the Uvalde school shooting was God’s plan, and gave a child sex abuser only a 60-day jail sentence.

Super funny

@JoyfullCat Yep! The real world is different!

[Chapman @io619]

Truly awesome!

[Chapman @io619]

Crazy smooth!

@Wisdom_HQ Or …. Just put on a jacket that doesn’t need batteries and microchips.

114 years on, Belfast witnesses a full-scale drone Titanic depart into the night...a powerful tribute.

[Jay in Kyiv @JayinKyiv]

Last night, Putin sent 2 missiles 700 miles to destroy this one American factory.

And Trump will spend the day continuing to praise him.

[Chapman @io619]

Exactly. America is still a powerhouse, but we are pushing others away. Eventually, we will be less critical to the world economic machine. Oil will no longer trade US dollars in 10-20 years. Our markets will be significantly less important.

[The Economist @TheEconomist]

The BRICS are now trading more with one another than with America, and the gap is widening. China might be the biggest winner from Donald Trump’s reshaping of global commerce https://t.co/hvrDJJkdZ0

[WIRED Science @WIREDScience]

The breach of the US Courts records system came to light more than a month after the attack was discovered. Details about what was exposed—and who’s responsible—remain unclear. https://t.co/yzpx4JVrlX

[Chapman @io619]

On the surface, this seems a bit excessive.

[Houston Chronicle @HoustonChron]

All eight of Harris County's elected constables have requested commissioners raise their pay to nearly $300,000 per year — roughly double what they made in 2024. https://t.co/SBDTq5ZtsG

And quorum break has begun.

This is for Texans, this is about democracy.

I stand with the #txlege @texasdemocrats @TheDemocrats fighting for fair elections—everyone should have an equal opportunity to participate in our democracy.

Say no to the Trump Takeover of TX.
