There was a debate between the candidates for Governor in Texas.
Texas, you have a choice.
To vastly improve your circumstances.

Beto O'Rourke begins his closing debate statement: "I don't think that Greg Abbott wakes up wanting to see children shot in their schools or for the grid to fail, but it's clear that he's incapable or unwilling to make the changes necessary." pic.twitter.com/AqRt55lDAP

BREAKING: Greg Abbott refuses to allow an audience at tonight's debate with Beto O'Rourke in the Texas governor's race.
Families of the Uvalde victims arrived at the venue and are not being allowed in.
Abbott is too much of a coward to face Texas voters.

And, the under indictment Attorney General did this.
BREAKING: Texas AG Ken Paxton (R) fled from his home to avoid being served with a subpoena, literally running away from a process server.
His wife drove the getaway car.

You’ve got to be kidding me! Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake (R) used stock footage of Russian soldiers marching in her campaign ad, falsely claiming they were the Arizona National Guard. Always Russia.

Here’s a quietly wonderful thing I noticed:
If you talk to someone who was in choir or band at a majority Black HS, you’ll eventually discuss those annoying fundraisers for uniforms, instruments, etc. & a SURPRISING number will casually say:
“Oh, Dolly Parton paid for ours”

Folks it’s time to acknowledge that “evangelical” is no longer a Christian religous label but a political one focused on political power more than faith. Walker’s opponent is an ordained minister whose life has been a demonstration of faith and service. https://t.co/vUB1SQNXV3

Republicans want America to abandon Ukraine, a sovereign nation invaded by a tyrannical dictator. They’d rather we support a man who’s killed thousands and threatened to strike our homeland with nuclear weapons.
If Republicans win, Putin wins. Americans and Ukrainians lose. https://t.co/O3ih8gWi9K

From unanswered questions about 9/11 & the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, to conspiring w/ Putin to punish the US w/ higher oil prices, the royal Saudi family has never been a trustworthy ally of our nation. It’s time for our foreign policy to imagine a world without their alliance.

The frustrating thing about all of this is how easily things can be
Broken.
Destroyed.
Vacated.
And how much time must be spent rebuilding the things we already had, instead of spending time getting more.
Because people fail to act until it’s too late.
33 days. 💙💙💙

Trump wanted Republicans in the Senate to vote against raising the debt ceiling because he wanted the economy under Biden to crash. Didn’t work.
Trump wanted the Saudis to cut oil production to raise gas prices and inflation under Biden. Worked.
