NEW: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said he's willing to "micromanage" Corpus Christi's water crisis. But he's gone quiet on the financial troubles of an agency that could help expand the region's water supply — despite Abbott having appointed its entire board. With KRIS 6 News and @texastribune.org

Greg Abbott Blasted Corpus Christi for Its Water Crisis. A River Authority He Has Power Over Is Falling Apart.

The Nueces River Authority is working on a project that could expand the Corpus Christi region’s water supply. But the Texas governor has done little to address the agency’s financial problems, despit...

"Night Taxi" - my oil painting

A voted for Blanche, is a vote for pedophiles and a vote against the Epstein victims.

thehill.com/policy/healt... The cowardly Republikkkans are about to put in place an attorney general that blatantly breaks the law and supports christian nationalism along with the treasonous buffoon, sexual predator, pathological, liar, corrupt criminal that he calls his client!!

Blanche pledges to make Dobbs decision ‘permanent’ in every state

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche told faith leaders he is planning to roll back abortion access even in states that have laws protecting it.  On a private call last week hosted by the Whit…

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.

Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."

RFK Jr. once blamed Trump for the COVID response. Now he blames everyone except Trump. That's what happens when loyalty matters more than truth. Meanwhile, America is experiencing its worst measles outbreak in 35 years. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "

The President of the United States is a liar.

A vote to confirm Todd Blanche is a vote against justice for Epstein survivors.

So disappointed in Tillis and Cornyn. Once again they sold out. They could’ve helped so much with a step forward for the Epstein victims. They just couldn’t help falling under trump’s control.

Under no circumstances should Todd Blanche be approved . He has done nothing to help the victims of the Epstein files. He is just as bad as all the other pedophiles in the Epstein files.

This is such complete and utter bullshit on the part of Thom Tillis and John Cornyn. Giving the Trump crime family immunity from tax audits remains as corrupt as anything we’ve ever seen in this country. Todd Blanche should be impeached, not confirmed.

JUST IN: Tillis confirms he is on board with Cornyn to vote yes on Blanche for AG, after Blanche renounces Anti-Weaponization Fund in writing & asserts that the waiver of any past taxes due is limited to POTUS, Don Jr., Eric & Trump Org. Earlier: www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

On day one of the next president…. There must be accountability. Not for revenge, but for the sake of our nation that we are passing on to our kids. Full video link youtu.be/jOTQckO-ldw?...

Every vote to confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general is a vote to continue the coverup of the Epstein Files.

The US DOLLAR IS TANKING!! We’re 39 Trillion in debt and they don’t have a plan to stop the debt from growing. #:sheshed

Trump never answers the questions that the media asks him. He veers off course, and always attack somebody in response.

Blanche has rescinded the weaponization fund in order to get approved. I hope Congress is not so stupid as no t to see what a ploy this is.

Bash: "Jeanine Pirro…said in a court document…that they were trying to send a man who was innocent to jail based on lies about vandalism...As chair of the judiciary committee, does that bother you?" Rep. Jordan: "If those are the facts, of course. But I don't know that those are the facts."

I don’t have a dog in this fight, but I have friends and family in Texas that I wish had access to affordable healthcare, clean water and had opportunities to afford their day to day lives — @ginafortexas.bsky.social is giving Texans hope. LET’S GO! Break Rank!

Russia’s Saratov oil refinery following yesterday’s massive drone attack.

Phang: "Think about what could be done if the FBI was deployed to really follow the investigative leads that have come out of even these bullshit redactions that we have in the Epstein files right now."

Let's not lose sight of this... ...over just this past weekend alone it became obvious that Donald Trump intended to put an innocent American citizen in prison for years (and still intends too) in an attempt to cover for his lies about the reflecting pool. How does this not matter to so many?
