Texas resister. Escapee from Twitter. Here to begin again. Gen X, mom of two Gen Z teens, wife of former-GQP-turned-Democrat, Pearl Jam fan for 33 years and counting (fuck, I'm old).

This is heartbreaking and infuriating simultaneously. Fuck Trump and his racist white supporters. FUCK THEM ALL TO HELL.
I hope everyone takes a good hard look at this picture. Trump’s under-construction ballroom is now bigger than the rest of the White House. Much bigger. The contrast says everything you need to know about this President and his priorities.
wow -- CNN broadcast footage of an Arlington guard yelling at a group with Pete Hegseth to "MAINTAIN SILENCE ... PAY RESPECT!" after someone in his entourage started laughing at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
There are only two explanations: he's lying, or he actually believes it. One makes him a con man. The other means he is mentally incapacitated and can no longer tell the difference between reality and the fantasy in his head. Either way, he is completely unfit for the job.
This long-suffering Texas liberal is still pinching herself over this delightful reality!
Ricky Davila@therickydavila.bsky.social · last wk.Every far right white supremacist in this photo have now lost their elections. Delicious.
So, 75% of Americans will now live under Democratic Rule. Cope and cry harder you good for nothing MAGA bitches.
It's shocking, it's real, and it's spectacular.
Raffi Melkonian@rmfifthcircuit.bsky.social · last wk.As I wake up, it is now clear that SCOTX has gone from 9-0 Republican to 5-4 Republican. The 15th Court of Appeals, a court created to channel appeals to a Republican court, is now 3 democrats. We have the first female chief justice in Texas history. It's as shocking as Hinojosa.
And this long-suffering liberal-ass Texan can't stop SMILING about it!
ElieNYC@elienyc.bsky.social · last wk.Elon Musk and his entire operation now lives in a blue state with a Democratic attorney general. :)
Be still my Texas heart, I cannot BELIEVE we are seeing this. It is a blue reckoning here tonight. Finally.
Steve Vladeck@stevevladeck.bsky.social · last wk.The Texas Legislature shamelessly created the 15th Court of Appeals to have a statewide business court staffed with Republican judges, rather than have those cases go to geographically assigned appeals courts that might also have Democrats. Tonight, the 15th Court is getting wiped out by Democrats.
HOLY SHIT HINAJOSA JUST WON GOVERNOR OF TEXAS I CAN'T BELIEVE IT I'M HOARSE FROM SCREAMING SO MUCH!
Oh, and one more thing: With all the Democratic outrage and backlash to Trump, with all the economic misery and fear this administration has fostered, there was no reason for any Democrat to throw trans people under the bus.
This 29 year resident of Texas cannot believe her eyes. My joy is overflowing, y'all.
Steve Vladeck@stevevladeck.bsky.social · last wk.It’s not just Talarico beating Paxton. It’s Abbott losing. It’s Dan Patrick losing. It’s Mayes Middleton losing. It’s Bo French losing. It’s every single statewide race in Texas—including four (of the nine) seats on the Texas Supreme Court. Holy. Shit.
I'm dying from all the good news, y'all!
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · last wk.BREAKING: Democrats have FLIPPED the North Carolina House
I don't have words for how happy this makes me.
Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social · last wk.Donald Trump: “Pretend I’m on the ballot.” The American people tonight: “Okay.”
BREAKING: A federal judge just ordered the Trump DOJ to stop threatening election officials with criminal prosecution over their handling of disputes about voter qualifications. Judge Trina Thompson also ordered the Trump admin to cease demanding that election workers remove voters from rolls.

It only took them 4 years and 8 months. A UN Commission of Inquiry says Russia’s systematic attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure constitute war crimes and crimes against humanity, concluding they were intended to deprive civilians of essential services and cause suffering. #Ukraine
Who do I give to to get this in front of as many Michigan voters as possible?
A group photo of all Republican Presidents who have left our nation's books in better shape than when they took their Oath of Office. ========================
Hilarious Texan GOP election ratfuckery: after Beto helped down ballot Dems in 2018, they banned straight ticket voting. But this cycle it means they have to affirmatively vote for the more objectionable on their ballot. Easier to stray or skip instead of following Angela Paxton’s advice.
Ya Trump just blasted an antisemitic slur & ok Vivek just did an attack ad with his opponent's estranged mom who stayed with a man who molested her daughter when she was 9 & maybe Vance just threatened to deport a guy calling to release Epstein Files, but has El Sayed condemned Terrorism?
Have there always been Starlink commercials on the NFL Network and during NFL games? Because I never noticed till today, and if this keeps up, I'll assume the NFL is pro-Russian, pro-Musk, and pro-murdering innocent Ukrainians and measure my NFL watching accordingly...right down to zero.
