Is the hotel assignment for the Texas delegation still 80 miles away in Illinois?

[Michael Li 李之樸 @mcpli]

DNC moves the Democratic National Convention from July to the week of August 17 - but still, for now, planned to be an in-person gathering. https://t.co/1U3QoEkPIZ

[2024 Democratic National Convention @DemConvention]

As we continue our countdown to the 2020 Democratic National Convention scheduled for July 13-16 in Milwaukee, WI, we’re faced with the unprecedented challenge as a country of responding to #COVID19. In this climate of uncertainty, we wanted to share an update on planning:

These people deserve representation, not this...

Waking up to find that @realDonaldTrump and many other people (?) feel that seniors such as me and @carlreiner , @WilliamShatner , @MelBrooks , @BettyMWhite , @Cloris_Leachman and millions of other seniors/people with underlying medical issues are expendable in a #ReopenAmerica

I have filed a stack of resolutions I wrote with the TDP. Some we have discussed. Sometimes things that start as a resolution at a State Convention end up being passed into law. That's happened for me in the past. It's also how I got to meet Biden's Senate Committee staff.

[Mike Collier @CollierForTexas]

THREAD: As many of you know, I am a proud supporter of @JoeBiden. As Democrats, we are incredibly fortunate to have so many great candidates that it can certainly be hard to pick one, but I wanted to share with my fellow Texans why I am proudly on @TeamJoe

[Tom Blackwell @N5GAR]

Thank you. Posting this keeps people informed.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

Here's what I know.

Republicans walked away from negotiations last night, and this morning showed up with:

- no real funding to save hospitals
- no real funding to save states
- slush fund for corporations
- no-strings bailouts for corporations

This is $1.5T. Do it right.

[Chris Bell - Bell Hagens PLLC @Bell4lastRound]

Today I announced my endorsement of @RoyceWestTX for US Senate. The Trump administration’s irresponsible handling of the COVID-19 outbreak is even more reason to elect experienced and dedicated leaders who understand the importance of protecting the lives of people they serve.

Call it a W. Thank you, Texas.

[Tom Blackwell @N5GAR]

In N Out is good, too, and not far away

[Deanna Rust @RustFamily]

Biden and Beto are in a discussion about In N Out vs Whataburger on a livestream and now I feel like @newyscruggs and I have a future in politics.

It's easy to become addicted to Whataburgers

My vote is in the can and will be counted here in Dallas County Chis Bell and the others. At the end of the day I'll be at the Dallas County Democratic Party watch party at the Hyatt Regency hotel downtown. @BellforSenate! Learn more about Chris at https://t.co/2L7t6lRwIs

It's been a few years but I was present at the NorthPark mall in Dallas when she performed there. A large crowd.

Babe, I got you babe! #grateful

I like Biden's experience in Foreign Policy. I've had dealings with his Foreign Policy staff. These are quality people.

[Colin Allred @ColinAllredTX]

We have a tradition in Texas of electing pragmatic progressives because that’s how we unite the country and get real results for Americans— right now that leader is @JoeBiden.

Make a plan to vote today so we can elect a leader who will heal the soul of the nation. #TeamJoe

[Tom Blackwell @N5GAR]

I'm happy to see Allred involved with @JoeBiden Biden's expertise on Foreign Policy is needed to clean up the 4 years of mess left by Trump. When Biden was selected as VP, he Chaired the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Tom Blackwell, Chair Pct 2220/AC HD108/Denver Platform

[Colin Allred @ColinAllredTX]

In this defining moment in our country's history, we need @JoeBiden to unite the country and move us forward together. #DemDebate

Mr. Stone made an appearance here in Dallas where he claimed LBJ organized the assassination of President Kennedy. The former Travis County Republican Party Chairman was present and endorsed these statements.
Mr. Stone has a tattoo of a picture of RICHARD NIXON on his back.

@MarkWarner “The sentencing recommendation was not what had been briefed to the Department.”

Ergo: those 3 told something quite different to their new boss than they actually were going to file.

Hmmm, what's the name for that?

Those who supported Yang for President should remain involved. Yang was not my first choice for President but I respect him and his supporters.
There are other remarkable candidates for President, and other important campaigns, at every level. They impact our lives every day.

He’s the future!

When it comes to representing the public interest, John Cornyn is incompetent.
