@mattlanza Check out the fireworks tonight from a rooftop if you can. It’s amazing to see the competing fireworks from the Kansas and Missouri sides! 🎇 🎆

@tify330 Girl, I’m Black and an actual voter in Texas. Let it GO.

[Jaime Harrison @harrisonjaime]

Congratulations to Rep. @jamestalarico on securing the Democratic nomination for Texas US Senate. Now it’s time for all of us to unite behind him and work alongside @texasdemocrats to flip this seat.

And I’m especially grateful for the leadership of my dear friend @JasmineForUS. Her voice, courage, and commitment continue to inspire so many of us across the country.

[Angela Alsobrooks @AlsobrooksForMD]

Congratulations to James Talarico on his victory!

I’m proud of my friend Jasmine Crockett for the race she ran. She will continue to be a fighter for all of us.

That fight continues as we all work to send James to the US Senate!

[Quiet Storm @mlesley]

@Miriam2626 Sara, respectfully, we have bigger fish to fry and this hyperbolic language ain’t it. The fact is that both Crockett and Talarico are long shots in our state. Either would be good senators and both are much better than what we have now. FOCUS.

@isaiahrmartin Great news. Is this by raw numbers or percentage of registered voters?

Vance: Harris’ policies have led to more manufacturing overseas

FACT CHECK: This is a blatant lie. American manufacturing stagnated under Trump and is booming under Biden-Harris

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Vance: Trump will put the citizens of this country first when they suffer from a disaster

FACT CHECK: Trump went golfing during a hurricane, called for nuking hurricanes, and threw paper towels at hurricane victims. And his Project 2025 would dismantle the agency that forecasts hurricanes and cut federal funding for communities hurt by natural disasters.

@Capn_Carl @HoustonTX Permitted pedicabs have insurance, which protects riders and drivers.

@michaelharriot Agree. I’m 53 years old. My first Frankie Beverly concert was the Budweiser Superfest with my parents in 1981. The last concert was Juneteenth Celebration 2022. Both in Houston. Have been a fan the ENTIRE time.

@emilytakesnotes Honest Question: Why not lead with “HPD paramedic training and affordable housing”. If the “snipping” is affecting policy/governing, say that. Otherwise, this lede is just messy and not newsworthy.

Then DA #KamalaHarris discussed the importance of being smart on #crime rather than tough on crime when addressing the #criminaljustice system at the 2006 State of #BlackAmerica. It's surprising that this clip hasn't gone #viral.
