I have like 8 books and 5 video games to catch up on after Election Day. Really looking forward to having that kind of time again

James Talarico: I want to protect good-paying oil and gas jobs, and I want us to invest in the energy sources of the future so that we can stay dominant. I will stand up to my own party if they mess with our oil and gas industry, and I will stand up to the other party if they mess with renewables.

OK, so if they don't renew Ted Lasso again, that was a great epilogue to the series. I love any excuse to see Hannah Waddingham though, so I won't be mad if it comes back

She can't tolerate living with this lying philanderer, but wants you to spend the next six years with him.  If that isn't the essential essence of the GOP, I don't know what is. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/03/u...

I was of the opinion that Ted Lasso should've stayed off the air, but this new season is kinda wonderful. I definitely missed this show and I'm happy I was wrong

It's wild that it's still a problem and that they get that long to fix it.

NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.

Saw this last night and I loved it!

Democratic Texas gubernatorial candidate Gina Hinojosa, who says she is pro-choice, explains the thinking behind an ad about carrying a fatally diagnosed pregnancy to term.

If I were the chair of the DNC and a Democratic gubernatorial candidate was attacked in the critical midterm election year, I’d probably highlight the fact that Donald Trump and the right have been stoking political violence for years with conspiracy bullshit and civil war rhetoric.

I’m relieved Dr. Acton is safe and keeping those who were injured at the Canfield Fair in my prayers. Violence like this has no place in our politics.

We need a huge turnout at both events if we want other statewide candidates to stop by, and I've been told by the campaign that sign-ups are low. If you're in town for either event (or both!), please RSVP below:

It’s true that Dolly Parton was a country music icon. But far more importantly, she was a human decency, kindness, empathy & generosity icon. And we lose her at a time when those traits are more urgently needed than ever, especially in the USA. As we honour her remarkable life, honour those traits.

Ended up at a Savannah Bananas game in St. Louis and they brought up my former crush from the Cardinals back in the day. Matt Carpenter is so pretty.

Spending a few days of my vacation for the DNC in Austin before heading off to see family in Missouri. It's gonna be a long trip but I needed it

Going on a long vacation starting Wednesday and I very much need it. Gonna see the 6-week old great niece and visit some friends along the way. Not looking forward to the mad rush over the next three days to get my office prepared to handle things while I'm gone.

The "how" is the part that needs to be figured out. I'm just tired of folks acting like TX GOP has been so successful in their voter suppression that Dems can't win. Becomes self fulfilling. Here's a true fact: Kamala Harris has more Texas votes than Abbott ever has & likely will ever have.

ETX Gov@etxgov.myatproto.social

Regarding the Talarico polls. Here's some top Dem vote getters, non presidential: Hegar 20: 4.8 mil Allred 24: 5 mil Here's how many votes Abbott has won in his elections: 14: 2.7 mil 18: 4.6 mil 22:4.4 mil There are enough Dems votes to easily win a midterm in Texas. Just gotta show up.

Even Sid Miller has figured it out.

Taylor farms , owned by a Trump donor, supplies bagged lettuce to *everywhere*. Taco bell did the right thing proactively, and they are getting all the blame. The blame lies with RFK period. Taco bell being the fall guy is crazy.
