Native to Texas and still here. The scariest thing I see is people shrugging their shoulders. New mom, former public school teacher, and wondering how to stop the shrugging.

Trump says he will send his ICE goons into airports starting Monday, turning travel into another stage for his authoritarian theater. Let’s be clear why this is even happening: Democrats introduced 7 bills to fund TSA. Every single one was blocked by Republicans.

Good fucking morning to everybody, except Donald Trump, who’ll try to gaslight people into thinking the economy’s strong in tonight’s SOTU. His net worth is up $5 billion this year while working families are getting crushed—jobs are gone, wages are stagnant, and everything’s too damn expensive.

“I heard the officer say ‘that ain’t shit’.” NASHVILLE — ICE shatter a car window in front of a newborn, refuse to look at man’s license & work visa… drag him out of his car, hit him, mock him for being Guatemalan (he’s from Mexico), laugh when he begs to say goodbye.

A man at our town hall asked if love was too weak for this moment. I told him: “My faith teaches me that love is the strongest force in the universe. A new kind of politics is possible.”

File this under: ready, shoot, aim ☠️ Republicans have been pushing the SAVE Act, which requires proof of citizenship to vote, w/out realizing it screws their own voters more. Lowest passport ownership by state: W Virginia 18–21% Mississippi 19–22% Alabama 20–23% Arkansas 20–23% Louisiana 21–24%

The Texas AG, Ken Paxton, is playing like a knight in shining armor. The only reason he is suddenly fighting for the rights of Texans is so he looks better for the upcoming primaries. Who’s to say he won’t drop the suit as soon as these elections are over? www.texastribune.org/2026/02/09/t...

Slotkin lays out how Trump’s NSPM‑7, his administration’s habit of calling peaceful protesters “domestic terrorists,” and ICE agents threatening to put people into “terrorist databases” have shattered public trust in federal law enforcement. #holdfast

truthout.org/articles/the... The early statement by Felon Trump that ICE would be removing "The worst of the worst" most dangerous and violent criminals was a lie. ICE goes after families and kids. They are the KKK with masks instead of hoods. #TraitorTrump #ICEIsATerroristOrg #ImpeachNoem

"But it’s not better than nothing. It’s worse than nothing. The face Grok produced isn’t a face it found under the mask. It’s a face it made up." It's soooo important people realize this tech is not what they see on crime shows, where blurry footage can be "fixed" with the touch of a button.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself. It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did. ICE MUST GO‼️

I spent my career teaching English & civics to immigrants. My classrooms were always filled with the most generous, hard-working, funny, loving, brilliant & talented people who happen to be undocumented. #FundHealthcareOverICE They do not deserve ICE brutality, torture and murder. No one does!

Destroy DHS. Rip them out by the rotten roots. Prosecute, convict, imprison. No such thing as "a few bad apples." At this point, with what we've SEEN, every last one of them is as guilty as the worst of them. Can you imagine what their *private* conversations are like? How do they sleep at night?

Jesus is 22. Shot in the eye with a pepper-ball while standing nearby. Not protesting. Just existing. Congress is voting to fund weapons that blind people instead of healthcare that heals them. #FundHealthcareOverICE

My mom is the only reason I’m on The View. She’s a fighter — she showed me how to stand up to the bullies. That's what I've done in the Texas Legislature, and that's exactly what I’ll do in the U.S. Senate.

The win last week in Fort Worth was proof that Texans are ready for change and Latinos are leading the way. We are as American, and as Texan, as anyone. And we’re going to win in November.
