Somehow rich folks feel entitled to benefits that they believe struggling families are not. 🤬

If technology becomes the ultimate criterion, the human person risks being reduced to data, a cog in a machine or a commodity. If, however, technology is integrated with a wise perspective, it can become an instrument of growth, justice and fraternity. #MagnificaHumanitas

Today, I introduced a resolution to honor the crew of the USS Liberty. 59 years ago, Israel attacked the ship, killing 34 Americans and wounding 174.

The President should declassify and publicly release all files related to Israel’s unprovoked attack on the USS Liberty.

NEW: Arizona has a huge school voucher program, and the money is being spent in shocking ways — lingerie, Xboxes, Disney vacations.

The vouchers were sold as helping poor kids, but the money is going to rich families and private schools, while public schools close and suffer.

Wisconsin Roads: 32.8% subsidized

Amtrak Borealis: 25% subsidized
Amtrak Hiawatha: 22% subsidized

Wisconsin roads are more subsidized than Amtrak.

Yesterday, Texans used 1.7 terawatt-hours of power, highest use day in June so far.

And over 60% of that power, over one terawatt-hour, was produced by wind, solar, and nuclear.

World-leading energy innovation is happening in Texas. #txlege #txenergy

*FIRST ROUND OF 32 POST*

South Africa v Canada is the World Cup's round of 32 match that has the longest straight-line sailing route between the two countries, at 12,071 km (7,500 miles).

BONUS FACT: It is also the round of 32 match that has the most latitude between the two countries' extremes.

Northern Canada is 83°04′ N, and southern South Africa is 34°50′ S. A difference of a whopping 117°54′, or 13,840 km (8,600 miles).

[Iain Cameron @theiaincameron]

Croatia v Ghana is the World Cup’s only group-stage match where both countries’ capitals begin with the first and last letters of the alphabet. Ghana has Accra, Croatia has Zagreb.

BONUS FACT: it is the World Cup’s only group-stage match between 101 Dalmatians and 24 Carats.

Croatia has the Dalmatian Coast, and Ghana grew out of the Gold Coast. Both shorelines were fought over intensely for trade, wealth, and control.

Stay tuned for more cutting-edge, geography-based World Cup analysis.

[Iain Cameron @theiaincameron]

DR Congo v Uzbekistan is the World Cup's only group-stage match where such a huge combined size (2.78 million km²) has such a small coastline (37 km).

37km is less than a Marathon, for two countries whose combined size is that of Argentina.

Stay tuned for more cutting-edge, geography-based World Cup analysis.

Whether it's Kai Trump spending $230 on a smoothie and some bottled water at an Erewhon in Santa Monica or Kat Abughazaleh spending 12 bucks on fried shrimp at a Culver's in Chicago, young women on both sides of the aisle are making extravagant purchases.

In which a member of the Texas State Board of Education advocates for major revisions to teachings on Nazi Germany while repeatedly struggling to pronounce "a really long word that starts with a K."

The word? Kristallnacht - "the Night of Broken Glass."

[Team Talarico @TeamTalaricoHQ]

.@jamestalarico: This election shouldn't be about the Democratic Party or the Republican Party. It should be about chasing a vision of what our state can be: Texas schools that are the envy of the nation, a Texas economy that is second to none, and Texas families that are stronger and healthier than ever before. It won't happen overnight. But a giant state deserves giant dreams.

We are bigger than extremism, we're bigger than partisanship, we're bigger than corruption. Texas is bigger than all of those things. Because it's not just a state. It's a state of mind. It’s a cause. Texans don't like tyrants, and we don't surrender easily.

Tonight, standing before you to accept your nomination for the United States Senate, I make the same commitment to you that my ancestor made 200 years ago: "Any duty that my bodily strength would enable me to perform, either in public or private, that would advance the cause of Texas, I feel anxious and ever ready to perform."

The word religion appears in the Constitution twice.

Both times, it’s preceded by the word “No.”

Talarico: They have been shrinking Texas for three decades now, but that ends this year, in this election.

In November, we can make Texas big again. We can make Texas friendly again. We can make Texas Texas again.

We have the chance to take back our state from those billionaire mega-donors and their puppet politicians who stole it from us.
