UPDATE: Earlier this week, we broke the news that Ken Paxton is making up to $1M a year from a company that has a cell tower at a hospital where he was a board member.
We heard back from the current hospital admin. They confirmed they are still getting paid by Paxton's company to rent the land for the tower, but declined to disclose the terms of the deal.

New: Six-second videos, brainrot and the billion dollar plan to make America’s disaffected voters pay attention to Kamala Harris.
I talked to the Harris campaign and FF PAC about how they worked to find + grab the attention of low-info voters in a fractured media environment.
I’m thrilled to be joining @DNC as Communications Director at such a pivotal time for our democracy, for working families, and for the future of our nation & planet. Can’t wait to get to work with this incredible team.
Still think the rich are leaving?

Reminder: the rich are not fleeing.
- Mujica admitted there's no evidence of tax flight
- Personal income taxes are raising 25% *more* than state projections
- Major proposals in the new plan (childcare, fix MTA) need funding. Either they raise revenue or this is a pipe dream.

Democrats passed their landmark legislation in time for the midterms. Now they need to sell it to voters — and the first phase of that effort is taking shape.

Let’s be 100% clear about what @NYCMayor is doing: using genuine fear and anxiety for political gain.
This isn’t about a true public safety agenda that brings all policymakers and stakeholders to the table to solve complex problems.
This is politics. Period. 🧵1/9
"This is bad, it’s horrible, and it will get worse," says @rtraister. "It is incumbent on us therefore to use hope not as some feel-good measure. But to regard it as a tactical necessity and a moral and civic responsibility. To feel the hope and keep moving and keep fighting."
Congrats to @MonicaCKlein, who continued to remind every voter and reporter that @RepSchrader voted against lowering prescription drug costs and is (WAS!) the Manchin of the House. We need Dems who will reliably vote our agenda, and that's @JamieforOregon!
A majority of Americans get 18 Senate votes. The minority get 82. This moment is not is not democrats vs. republicans but democracy vs insanity. #ActNow
