Talarico wants data centers to pay for their own grid upgrades, recycle their water, create real jobs, & get a community's consent before moving in. Paxton took nearly $500,000 from the industry. Texans want a senator who fights for them. That's why we will have a #BlueWaveIn40Days

What this means: he plans to wait until after the election to issue them. Zero possibility that he sincerely intends to stop them. He just hopes this will convince MAGA to vote for him. Will it work? Quite possibly-they're easily led. If he is re-elected- mark my words. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

When Elon Musk's groups spent $20M+ on Wisconsin's 2025 Supreme Court race, his involvement backfired and his candidate lost by 10 points. Now his super PAC has quietly spent $14M+ on key midterm races, including the Texas Senate race. Would be a shame if people found out.

Elon Musk is flying under the radar in the Texas Senate race. Republicans want to keep it that way.

One Republican involved in the Texas Senate contest called Musk’s in-your-face campaigning in Wisconsin last year “a mis

“AN URGENT CALL TO ACTION” Former federal judge J. Michael Luttig warns in a new article about threats he sees surrounding the 2026 midterms, what may happen on January 3, 2027, and calls on public officials to uphold their constitutional duties. kettering.org/an-urgent-ca...

An Urgent Call to Action from Kettering Senior Fellow J. Michael Luttig

Protecting our democracy requires recognizing threats early, demanding that public officials fulfill their constitutional duty, and insisting that the will of the people be respected.

The New York Times did not blink. The Times: “We won’t be issuing a retraction." But they didn't stop there. "This is another all too common example of the president lashing out at coverage he doesn’t like and belittling journalists who report the facts.”

🚨 JUST IN: Iran-backed Houthis just SEIZED U.S.-made M-ATVs and MRAP armored vehicles after overrunning Mokha port on Yemen’s Red Sea coast

When U.S. airspace was closed on 9/11, Canada took in hundreds of diverted flights and thousands of stranded passengers under Operation Yellow Ribbon, and later by sending troops to our war in Afghanistan. We have the best neighbors any country can have. Trump is a total idiot for what he’s doing. 🔄

I am tired of people saying we can’t win in front of the Supreme Court. I’m annoyed by those who say my firm is too partisan to be effective. Today we won a huge redistricting fight before SCOTUS and a ballot access case before the Nebraska Supreme Court. The lesson: When we fight we win.

Founding father George Washington on the world's oldest active codified antidote to tyranny: "The Constitution is the guide which I will never abandon." Felon tyrant Donald Trump, who on one offense alone, is slam-dunk impeachable: "You people with this phony emoluments clause."

A foreign monarchy handed the President a $400 MILLION jet. Wednesday, it becomes Air Force One. Friday, it leads the July 4th flyover for America's 250th birthday. A gift from Qatar. Flying the President. On Independence Day. Let that one sink in, friend.

The world is getting US fatigue, how can one country do so much crime and damage by itself to the entire global economy and all of our collective national securities? the bright side is, it'll smarten up a lot of democracies not to let their guard down. Never again, never forget.
