For years, taxpayers have been helping bankroll AI data centers. Now even the Texas Senate is asking whether these tax breaks have gone too far. Texans deserve investments that strengthen our communities, not more corporate giveaways to the Tech Barons.

A screenshot from the San Antonio Express-News shows a protester holding a large red sign reading, “STOP DATA CENTERS!” in bold black letters during a rally. Other demonstrators stand nearby holding yellow signs, with trees and a streetlamp visible in the background. White overlay text from the Express-News reads: “Texas Senate panel raises concerns over tax exemption for data centers.

I made dinner for my abuser a bunch of times. You have to play nice while you're planning your escape so you don't get dead. Max Miller is a textbook abuser.

Let’s not forget that this illegal Reflecting Pool indictment was also overseen by Todd Blanche. He could have stopped this at any time, but he was a corrupt and willing accomplice to this fraud upon the court. How can any decent person possibly vote for this man as AG?

When I offered my amendment to kill this slush fund, Republicans said we should accept Trump's word that it was dead. We knew they were wrong. This is why.   Even in the middle of an illegal war, with prices rising, Trump wants to send your tax dollars to criminals & save his sweetheart tax deal.

We have to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics. We must ban corporate PACs and Super PACs so billionaires aren’t making unlimited secret donations to campaigns. We must ban members of Congress from trading stocks and enriching themselves while they’re in public office."

“And now we learn Miller threatened to reveal something about Moreno—in a text to him—that would allow people to ‘get to know you better than your wife does’ after Emily Moreno accused Miller, per court filings, of abuse against her and their daughter. You can read it all here. www.signorile.com

Six congressmen bought between $83,000 to $245,000 in SpaceX stock just before its IPO: -Jared Moskowitz -Gil Cisneros -Dan Meuser -John McGuire -William Timmons -John James Five serve on committees whose work impacts SpaceX's business. We must ban members of Congress from trading stock.

Talarico: When I get tough questions, I answer them. When Ken Paxton gets tough questions, he runs away, literally runs away from reporters, from voters, from anyone asking hard questions. If you've given an Epstein style sweetheart deal to a child predator, you should have to answer questions.
