@CoxHerb The “coattail effect” would be an amazing win!

@PFN365 @McClain_on_NFL An undefeated Tech as a #2 seed! 🤦‍♂️

@GinaHinojosaTX @CoxHerb No way! That can’t be true Greg! What about public schools? They are closing just as fast! Are the kids in learning mode?

[Gina Hinojosa @GinaHinojosaTX]

Texas has the highest number of uninsured people and the most rural hospital closures in the country.

If Greg Abbott wanted to lower healthcare costs for Texans, he would've done it in the twelve years he's been Governor.

Barron Trump is now being pulled into an investigation surrounding Andrew and Tristan Tate, and Donald Trump is reportedly furious. They exclaim the “children” of the President shouldn’t be investigated. How quickly they forget the relentless persecution of Hunter Biden !!

Greg Abbott waived all sales tax for data centers in Texas—creating the largest taxpayer giveaway in the country.

I watched Trump’s speech at the Correspondents’ Dinner last night.
It’s hard to articulate how sad it made me.

Sad and embarrassed and exhausted.

Here is the thing about a man who is a joke. He can’t tell one.

People think humor is a talent. It isn’t. It’s a capacity. To make someone laugh you have to be able to laugh at yourself, and to laugh at yourself you have to step outside of yourself and see what everyone else sees. For one second you have to be just another person in the room.

Most people can do this by the time they are nine years old.

He has never once managed it. Not in fifty years of cameras. Not for a second.

That is not a quirk. It is a symptom. The muscle that lets you tell a joke is the same one that lets you feel what another person feels. A man who cannot survive being laughed at cannot imagine being anyone but himself. He will only ever be generous when it is photographed. He will only ever be kind when it is filmed.

There is a name for it.

So he stood up there and did what he always does. He hit down. He made jokes about people’s weight. He made jokes about their intelligence. He made jokes about how women look. He read out the names of people he doesn’t like, and mocked them. Always mocking. And when no one laughed he blamed his speech writers.

The cruelty dressed as humor has worn so thin.

And for the 30% of you still in the cult who will inevitably call me a crackhead and blame it all on my Dad, all I can say is please, for the love of God, open your eyes. Wake the fuck up. Have some dignity. Have some pride.

Joe Biden wasn’t standing at that podium last night. Donald Trump was.

And at the end of it he put on a red hat that said Trump 2028 and told the room he was running again. No one laughed because everyone knows he has no intention of leaving.

Just another joke at our expense.

@GalvestonFerry What the current wait time? The lines look longer than a 0 minute wait time!

[Quinn Godwin @qgodwin]

@Sarah4Texas Maybe, but that was several years ago. 🤔 A lot of us love you your political beliefs and how gutsy you are! Keep the fireballs coming!😁

Texas—2nd Worse In Nation

Why?

A Governor who wants to end public ed, in Texas @GregAbbott_TX

A Lt Gov who wants to begin theocracy in Texas, @DanPatrick

An Atty Gen who is a crook, @KenPaxtonTX

Turn TX true again! VOTE morality in #2026Elections!

@TheJFreakinC Ahhh. So these assholes do carry cameras when needed!? WTF!

🚨 Ken Paxton inexplicably coerced a college football conference into letting one of Texas Tech’s football players play.

We now know it was because he was given a $270,000 bribe by one of Texas Tech’s board members.

@Movies Bah!!

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 WTF?! Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) is BLOCKING Donald Trump nominees Kari Lake and Doug Mastriano until 47 resumes certain USAID FUNDING to AFRICA

He's going on a salty RINO REVENGE TOUR!

CORNYN: “The only way it seems like you can get the administration's attention on some of these funding issues is by using the leverage to withhold votes on nominees," per Semafor

Ken Paxton will be a HUGE upgrade over this guy in the Senate.

[Quinn Godwin @qgodwin]

@EricLDaugh Everything has a price tag! Just look at our corrupt politicians.

Walter Cronkite: After liberating execution camps… Germans (who cried) they didn’t know…were as as guilty as Nazis…because they applauded when Hitler shut down (media) and said, ‘We don’t need to know. We trust our government...’

It’s our duty to know.

[Team Talarico @TeamTalaricoHQ]

The family of a child who was repeatedly raped by a man who Ken Paxton let off with no new jail time is speaking out:

“The fact that Attorney General Ken Paxton allowed this man to get away with molesting and sexually abusing [our] son for three years is completely disqualifying.

Adam Hoffman could have faced life in prison. Instead, Ken Paxton and his office offered him a deal that kept him off the sex-offender registry and included no new jail time.”

[Adam Schwager @schwagerTV]

Another question @KenPaxtonTX refused to answer today in Fort Worth came from @gromerjeffers:

"Will you answer a question about why you voted in Collin County?"

Wow -- Ken Paxton and his team abruptly shut down a news conference and bail after journalists try to ask him about his various scandals
