Texas belongs to the people, and we demand maps and policies that reflect us, not repress us.
IUPAT’s Jennifer Hernandez was one of the few able to testify in Houston at the #txlege redistricting hearing.
We will fight for districts that keep our communities together!
I can’t quite get my head around the fact that Americans voted the presidency to a teen f****r who was adjudged a ‘rapist’ , fucked a porn star whilst his wife squished in afterbirth, was accused by his ex of raping her and pulling her hair out, grabbed pussies and stick his tongue down throats.
“In or about the summer of 2000 … Maxwell recruited a 17-year-old girl named Virginia Roberts from the parking lot of Mar-a-Lago to provide Epstein with massages. Over the next several months, Virginia was paid to provide Epstein with sexualized massages at his Palm Beach residence ...
Not. A. Victim. Ghislaine Maxwell was found guilty of sexually abusing children. Yes. Children. She herself. That was in addition to recruiting grooming for Jeff Epstein.

What I cannot fathom is why any court is allowing Alligator Auscwirz to exist.
Inhumane detention facilities violate the 8th Amendment to the Constitution prohibiting cruel and unusual punishment.

more than a week after the Wall Street Journal broke news about Trump writing a raunchy birthday letter to Jeffrey Epstein, GOP Rep. Eric Burlison claims "I haven't heard about the birthday book."
1/Many thanks to @peterbakernyt.bsky.social for giving Trump’s stumbling efforts to deflect criticism over the Epstein files away from himself, with a ridiculous spree of conspiracy theory nonsense, the level of seriousness they deserve, which is to say, none. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/26/u...
The police insist they need astronomical sums of money and complete immunity from any harm they cause in order to be ready to protect us and then half the time they just decide they’d prefer not to?

The Israeli navy intercepted a ship aiming to bring aid to Gaza this weekend, Israeli officials and pro-Palestinian activists said. It was at least the third vessel blocked this year while challenging Israel’s naval blockade and seeking to deliver supplies by sea to people facing rising starvation.
*this* is how desperate Trump is to distract from Epstein:
-denaturalize Rosie O’Donnell
-cane sugar in Coca-Cola
-threaten Washington Commanders
-Hillary’s emails
-arrest Obama
-arrest Kamala
-arrest Oprah
-arrest Beyoncé
-arrest Al Sharpton
Maxwell was already convicted and imprisoned.
Epstein was imprisoned.
There is no reason to consider any immunity or pardon unless they are tampering with a witness.
According to fact-checkers, Donald Trump made 30,573 false or misleading claims during his first presidency (2017-2021). Ongoing analyses from CNN and PolitiFact document thousands more since, including over 100 in his first 100 days of 2025. Exact lifetime total likely exceeds 35K.
The same Republican Party that impeached Bill Clinton over a consensual sex act with another adult is now protecting Donald Trump for alleged nonconsensual sex acts with underage girls. #WWJD?
Michigan is poised to be another hotbed of election conspiracy theories in the 2026 midterms as a far-right election group announces Seth Keshel — one of the country’s most prominent election conspiracy theorists — will be joining the organization.
Every news outlet that reports on US stocks "surging" should be required to note that the wealthiest 10% of Americans hold more than 90% of all the value of US stocks.
The Party of Fake Faith and Fungible Family Values is at it again.
"Jason Yates, former CEO of My Faith Votes, pleads guilty to child porn possession."
Supposedly after pretending it was about money they're just openly talking in meetings about how they'll trash contracts and fire comedians for the absolutely unprescedented act of... making fun of the president on a late night talk show.
Dictator shit.
Establishment Dems have more energy to condemn CBS for firing Colbert than for Netanyahu for committing genocide
More energy to condemn Mamdani for seeking economic justice than for Cuomo’s 13 credible sexual abuse cases
Establishment Dems: grow a spine & actually be an opposition party—for once
Gov. Wes Moore torches Trump’s waste, fraud, and abuse: “Instead of having FEMA focusing on tragedies and natural disasters, that we are gonna use FEMA to focus on Trump-made disasters.”
