It was great joining @JamesTalarico and @GinaHinojosaTX today in Texas. They're working hard to make a difference in the lives of all Texans, and will be able to do even more as your next Senator and Governor.

Let’s get it done, Texas!

While we strongly detest President Trump, we also stand firm in the belief that political violence should have no safe harbor in our Country.

Today is the day we honor the spouses of military members who have died in the line of duty. The loss, while very deeply personal, is one we all feel deeply connected to, because family is a core cultural element in our society. To those who have sacrificed, we thank you.

The loss of a combat proven leader with 38 years of service is a tragedy for the U.S. Army as the branch’s service chief is forced to retire.

[CBS News @CBSNews]

Ousted Army Chief of Staff, Gen. Randy George, told Pentagon officials in an outgoing email that U.S. soldiers deserve "courageous leaders of character," after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth asked him to step down and take immediate retirement.

An outgoing email, attributed to George and confirmed as authentic by CBS News on Saturday, circulated online after his ousting.

A U.S. official told CBS News that George sent the email to Driscoll, the undersecretary and assistant secretary of the Army, as well as to the three- and four-star generals and officers on his staff.

Today is Vietnam Veterans Day and we honor the service and sacrifice of the men and women who served.

Over 300,000 Texans served during that conflict. Many returned home without the recognition, so today, we say what wasn’t said,

Welcome home Thank you for your service

Rules of engagement were developed to make sure the U.S. abides by international treaties.

The decision to remove promotable officers because of their gender or ethnicity is wrong. People of good conscience see this as an egregious error that needs to be addressed. @TxDemParty @TexasTribune @TexasObserver

[Texas Democratic Veterans @txdemvets]

The Chair of the Texas Democratic veterans caucus has issued a statement regarding a report that the U.S. Sec of Defense has removed promotable officers from the promotion list for purely political reasons. @TxDemParty
