Texas Gubernatorial Candidate Gina Hinojosa visited the Lorenzo Salgado Araujo memorial in Houston's East End alongside Ronaldo Salgado today. The memorial has a sign that reads, "Somos Lorenzo," or "We are Lorenzo," in Spanish.

Tesla is one of the most recalled brands in all of automotive history. For many years, it ranks as the most recalled brand in the world.

America. WHERE EVERYONE KNEW TRUMP 2.0 WAS GOING TO BE A SHIT SHOW, but rather have this, than a qualified woman.

Reminder: this is who the Senate GOP is trying to confirm.

Senate Democrats@democrats.senate.gov · 3w ago

Access to mifepristone is under attack by Senate Republicans and the Trump administration. Yesterday, Trump’s nominee for Attorney General made clear he would use the office to further restrict access to reproductive care.

I fundamentally do not know how to square the politics whereby Democrats will essentially have to tell the American people that because they (the voters) made an extremely stupid decision, they need to lower their expectations substantially for the foreseeable future, but here we are.

Never forget.

Happy Anniversary, y’all‼️ May we never forget the battle for the Soul of Montgomery 🙏🏽 #Blacksky

JP@johnathanperk.bsky.social · last yr.

I just remember we KEPT finding footage from new angles for literally days after the Montgomery Riverfront Brawl itself. God bless ✊🏽🙌🏽🙏🏽🪑✨🇺🇸

Three years ago today, a bunch of white folks decided to FAFO. The brothers and sisters in Alabama decided they were not having it. We honor those brave folks that put not belt to ass but chair to skull on this day to be known as: The Mauling at Montgomery. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRDG...

Racist clean-up at TNR Here's the disconnect: Black voters often embrace "leftist policies," yet also vote for establishment candidates. The answer is simple. Black voters, like all voters, "are frequently not familiar with the actual platforms." Instead, they pay attention to crucial endorsements.

Here’s @gregsargent.bsky.social agreeing w/ @emmarjanssen.bsky.social‘s ridiculous YTE Leftist fantasy that our Black House Minority Leader, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social “is embattled and struggling to hold the party together” There’s only a handful of outliers in the house, DSA propagandists…

Everyday I worry more about the midterms and our chances for getting out of this shit. White people have learned the wrong lessons. Leaning into your demographics isn’t the way. All you prove is that the Black and Indigenous have no allies, and there is not left or right with white people.

Whatever happens tonight is not a referendum for either wing of the party. Tonight shows a big division & that makes winning in November that much harder.

The bernie crowd of going to have an absolute fit if AES loses

I’ve not seen any Democrat—centrist or otherwise—be anything but unequivocally pro-choice for over a decade.

Do you get the policies if the candidate doesn’t win? I never thought I’d have to ask this but here you are in my mentions😭

Maybe people should be able to vote based on policies not polls

I would also like to remind all that on 11/6/24 Black folks are done with the harm reduction and saving the country. Many of us put on our on oxygen masks. You may not like some of the paths that we may travel, but no other group have more to preserve this place than Black Americans.

They deleted this which shows they know it's bad but they put it out anyway. That's not going to help them because it's still out there and it's the most clearly racist bullshit article that could have been written. Black voters are the single most educated voting block we have. Super fucked up.

Screenshots are foreveeeeerrrrrr…🎶🎶🎶

They deleted the original post even tho it accurately conveyed the shitty points made in the article.

Like the North, the internet remembers.

@schiff.senate.gov, thank you for opposing Todd Blanche's nomination for AG in committee. Now use your influence with other Senators to make sure he doesn't pass the Senate! I am a constituent and when you fight, I will applaud you! #DemsGrowASpine #CallYourSenator #PGAS app.sosha.ai/s/O7pdYvOq

I just voted no on Todd Blanche's nomination to serve as Attorney General. Before I did, I laid out the 5 biggest reasons why he should not be our nation's top law enforcement officer: youtu.be/vI6xF0HFI4Y?...

Y’all are racist as HELL. And you really think we can’t see you saying this mess in👏🏾broad👏🏾daylight👏🏾 Your coded “low information voters” rhetoric translates to indignation that we have the nerve to think for ourselves—you resent that you can’t get us to fall for the okie doke. Racist and dumb.

So hey, misuse of a candidate's campaign data is illegal. Maybe Climate Defiance should be reported to the FEC and the IRS and lose their 501(c)3 status.

You’ll be shocked to know that this whiter than even me person is the one responsible for this racist pile of garbage. She essentially said Black voters are low-information voters who check their ballot based on vibes from their elders and the @newrepublic.com is racist enough to publish it.

@truetorment.bsky.social · yesterday

Oh come the fuck on, there is no hatred here. And you all better get the fuck in line behind AES if he wins today. "Blue no matter who", right?

You all do not know shit about Black voters. Not a damn thing. If you did, you would not have written or publish this trash. Most of the rights in this country came from fucking Black bodies. The reason we are skeptical doesn't have shit to do with establishment or other bullshit y'all made up.

🚨 BREAKING: Tarrant County, TX is trying to eliminate HALF of their polling locations ahead of the midterm elections. This isn't about budget constraints, this is about denying Black voters and voters of color equal access to the polls! But that won't happen on our watch.

I remain convinced the only reason Obamacare wasn’t repealed in 2017 is that Collins & Murkowski were certain McCain was a yes vote.

The New Republic got ahold of itself and deleted this post, but...I still got a screen grab of it:

Why do none of the Children of the Chalk have the self awareness to refuse to write shitty pieces about Black voters? You're not Black, you don't experience the world as a Black person, and you don't interact with Black people beyond a surface level. Tell your bosses to find a Black journalist.

Chipotle has removed jalapeños from restaurants as officials investigate 110 cases of salmonella potentially tied to the restaurant. This comes after the Trump administration disbanded the DOJ office in charge of food safety enforcement.
