Ken Paxton just denied our public information request for the Hoffman Files.
Adam Hoffman — an admitted child molester — should be in prison, but Ken Paxton let him off the hook. Texans deserve to know why.
We don’t need any more pedophile protectors in our government.
@NMAAHC What people who aren’t descendants of Africans trafficked to this land don’t understand is that we love America despite how she treats us. Our ancestors have fought, and died, in every conflict since the French & Indian War. We helped build this nation—and will continue to do so.

When I was younger, we had a house fire and all of our birth certificates and SS cards were lost as well as my mom’s marriage and divorce papers.
In Pennsylvania it cost $30 to get a new birth certificate. It’s $40 for a copy of your marriage license and another $40 for any divorce paperwork that you may have lost. Add another $165 in for a passport because married women need several forms to prove who they are.
Now add time away from your job so that you can go to the courthouse to get all of this done before the election, because they’re not open weekends and they’re not open after 4pm weekdays.
All of that just to verify that you can vote. The constitution calls that a poll tax. And they’re illegal.
This has nothing to do with preventing fraud and everything to do with preventing YOU from voting.

This 2-year-old's family couldn't afford his $20,000 electric wheelchair, and their insurance didn't cover it.
So, a high school robotics team built him one for free.
Once again, a detainee at the Eloy Detention Center told me about how they're being abused and tortured here. Chlorinated water, worms in fountains, food that looks like vomit, people getting sick, and working for $3/day while getting harassed and threatened by staff.
I'll have more to say about my 11th oversight visit to Eloy, but I'm going to keep fighting to drain the $250B that ICE has secured to keep treating people like slaves.
“THIS WHOLE DAMN TIME”
Emily’s list has been vetting candidates longer than current pundits & political operatives.
Whenever a new unknown candidate who’s never been vetted in any way suddenly surges & creates pundit excitement, I always stay quiet & wait for the vetting.
Graham Platner was accused of rape and every Democrat tossed him overboard.
Donald Trump was accused of rape multiple times and sexual assault and harassment many more times. Also the whole matter of trying to overturn an election.
Republicans nominated him a second time.
Mohammad Paktiawal died in ICE custody. He fought with our troops in Afghanistan. He was not here illegally or a criminal. He worked & had a family. There was no reason for his detention. This ongoing inhumanity is a national shame. Powerful @BillKristol:

A star is born. This is Marshawn Camese. He is brilliant. He needs to run for office. Watch him eviscerate a Louisiana MAGA state representative. Looooove him!

Texas Attorney General, and now Republican nominee for the Texas Senate Ken Paxton gave his friend 28 days in jail after he repeatedly raped a young boy.
He does not have to register as a sex offender.
He didn’t even lose his license to practice law.
BREAKING: Rep. Pat Ryan just got the House Armed Services Committee UNANIMOUSLY to force Pete Hegseth to explain every senior military firing within the next 5 days. Hegseth has fired 24+ officers without cause or explanation. Even Republicans want answers.
