🚨Holy crap! Ken Paxton partied on New Year’s Eve 2024 in Dubai with his girlfriend and two U.S. fugitives (Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail) charged in healthcare fraud/embezzlement schemes. Ahmed, a major donor, gave about $190,000 to Paxton’s campaign — including after his indictment.

Ken Paxton is selling off Texas — our land, our water, our communities. Data centers bankroll Paxton, they get tax breaks, and you get stuck with the bill. We can’t afford Ken Paxton’s corruption. (This ad was made by humans — not AI.)

Restaurants are warning that the tariffs Ken Paxton supports could end free chips and salsa.

This is disgusting!.

James Talarico @jamestalarico.bsky.social is simply 1 of the greatest, most inspirational candidates to emerge in years, running against Ken Paxton, one of the most disgracefully corrupt politicians of all-time. So the Texas GOP responds by doing what comes naturally to them, of course: CHEATING! 🤮

“Socialism is a scareword they have hurled at every advance the people have made… socialism is their name for most anything that helps the people. 1952. Truman. This is how stale their desperate fearmongering is. cc: @MarshaBlackburn

Here are the top 5 dogs of the week!

Puppy Court is now in session!

Why I picked Spain? Spain formally recognizes the State of Palestine, having officially granted statehood on May 28, 2024, alongside Ireland and Norway. Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez stated his support for a viable two-state solution. Spain is taking in refugees. The flotilla!!! I also love Yamal.

I have thoroughly enjoyed the World Cup. I have loved cheering for the US team. Then that fucker intervened. Yes, the red card was excessive, but I would rather lose because of it than win because Imbecile called FIFA. The joy is gone. Now we’re the bad guys. He destroys everything.

Sen. Bernie Sanders: Let’s be clear, Trump’s administration is not “America First.” It is “Trump First.”

Those closest to Ken Paxton know he’s unfit for office. James Talarico’s #CupOfJoe is full of facts about his opponent for the U.S. senate in Texas. TX, you know what you need to do! Elect jamestalarico.com!

Gregg Abbott has been Governor of Texas since 2015 and has spearheaded abortion bans, deaths of immigrants, & locking up immigrant kids. 📌Texans need to vote Gina Hinojosa for governor in order to protect our rights, freedoms and history. #GinaHinojosa #AbbottFailsTexas @ginafortexas.bsky.social

Didn’t see this coming. Another Senate race to watch closely. Lindsey Graham spent years acting like South Carolina belonged to him. The voters might have other plans. Dr. Annie Andrews is at 45%, and among informed voters, she leads Graham 46% to 43%.

Subs?

All decent people feel terrible for the Iranian men's national team and how they have been treated.

I proudly accept your nomination for the United States Senate.

Talarico: Every bar has that guy. He’s loud, he’s obnoxious, he makes all the women in the bar feel uncomfortable. He hears you say your name to the bartender and then adds his drink to your tab when you’re not looking. That’s Paxton. And I don’t know about y’all, but I’m done picking up his tab.

#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #ONEV1 #DV1 🗣U.S. Senate TX Texans, your vote tells so much about your proud state. Hire Someone with a moral compass and a serious agenda for YOU: @jamestalarico.bsky.social Whatever your political leanings, you won’t regret your choice.

Literally every American should see this ad. Spread it everywhere. #TrumpLovesTheInflation

A study in contrasts.

Who knew it was still even possible to stand out for vulgarity in America?

a disgrace not only to the office of the president but to military families who have lost loved ones

This is amazing - @kevinolearytv 🤡 is fearmongering about Chinese agents opposing his giant Utah data center… but it’s 2 young local girls in Utah who hilariously call him (and his “dumbass hat”) out👇🏽 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DYU074V...

Civil rights leader Jesse Jackson has passed away at the age of 84. My thoughts are with his family. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

Wow.

Glad I was wrong that Texans might slip up.

This feels like how the first few games of the season where Texans would lose it at the end.

Damn, Stroud is having a horrible game. 2 fumbles and now an interception. Defense and run game has helped Texans so far.

REP. @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “The biggest ‘welfare queens’ in 🇺🇸 are corporations that don’t pay a penny in federal taxes, and CEOs who get a tax deduction for flying on a private jet — not hungry kids, or working parents who work multiple jobs.”

Got PKC21, programmed a new key fob, and 2 nfc cards yesterday in Austin. Thanks to Cristian (Austin) and the #FOA feeling better in my Ocean.

. Can women run everything again please!? #Mexico .

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this. You're welcome

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

Good on the Texas dems… This isnt their first time getting in good trouble. Good on them! And shame on Texas republicans and greg abbott… Republicans can only win when they cheat. Y'all can come stay with me!!! I'll make breakfast but you gotta cook dinner! www.cnn.com/2025/08/03/p...

Just watched Superman. Great movie!

Finally started watching The Good Fight recently. Scary how some of the issues in the first two seasons are issues we are worrying about now.

It is amazing how far this country has fallen.

Former 🇺🇸 ambassador to Russia 👇🏽

If you haven’t heard of Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove… you have now. When she stepped out from the back without missing a beat, I knew it was on🔥 @kamlager-dove.house.gov
