On November 3rd, we'll prove that working Texans can take on the biggest money in politics, and we can win. It'll allow all of us to believe in our power again.

The Chesapeake Bay, home to blue crabs and striped bass, has a new apex predator: the blue catfish. It's invasive and voracious. It's also delicious, which officials hope might help save the bay. n.pr/3Ue5EDX

Election Day is 7 days away, and voters in New Hampshire and across our country are ready to put a check on Trump's callous, cruel, and incompetent administration.

Puro 956

Last week, I met with young leaders from the My Brother's Keeper Alliance at the Obama Presidential Center. They shared more about the work they’re doing at school, their goals for the future, and even gave me an update on their class elections. Take a look!

I know who I’m fighting for because I know who Texas belongs to.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

These street dogs never cease to amaze me. I was sure that Birdie was gone. If you need a huge smile today this will sort you out! Unbelievable scenes!

Like too many Iowans, my sister Ulette is fighting cancer. She’s also fighting her insurance company after they denied a scan to see if the cancer had spread. If you wonder how broken the healthcare system is, she is living proof. Watch one of our campaign’s closing ads:

It is always very special to see Mr Shaq. Probably the hardest and most dramatic rescue I’ve ever done ❤️

A new report confirms what too many hardworking families already feel every day. Trump and Republican policies are raising costs for nearly everyone. Hundreds or thousands of dollars more a year for the middle class and the poorest, while the richest 1% come out ahead Op: Jess Craven ❌👑

Terrifying — AI agents are already starting to access Americans’ bank accounts. Let’s get guardrails up NOW.

Bruno was only a little baby when we found him on the road just over a month ago. You won’t believe what he looks like today and the good news he’s getting. This will put a huge smile on your face! It did for me! ❤️

In 2022, Mike Lawler said: “Before you vote tomorrow, fill up your tank and go grocery shopping — it will inform your decision.” So we took him up on that. Before early voting starts tomorrow, try it. Then tell me if the system’s working for you. It shouldn’t be this hard. You deserve better.

Elon Musk says Italians should stay in Italy and the Japanese in Japan. Then why is this South African in America?

💛🦋🕊 hope this epic rescue brings ya joy 🔆💛🌿💛🔆🌱

Less than two weeks before the election, Trump continues to crash through barriers that he wouldn't dare cross in his first term. n.pr/4i6obtB

So many big things happening behind the scenes. Many many dogs being helped now niallharbison.substack.com/p/how-we-are...

Jon Husted gave data centers $2.5 billion in out-of-control tax breaks; Ohioans got higher utility bills.

Elon Musk is trying to buy this Senate seat in Texas. He wants our land, he wants our water, and he wants his own personal U.S. senator. He’s trying to buy Texas. But on November 3rd, we’ll deliver a clear message to the world’s first trillionaire: Texas is not for sale.

Just a year ago his beautiful mother was living on the streets of Thailand after a life of being used for breeding. We found her scavenging around for food. To see Sienna now in Wales, on daily walks in the forests and being spoiled rotten is the thing of absolute dreams.

Don't give up. Keep going. Victory will soon roll in.

Steve has made a nice friend down the pub for once!

Happy Birthday, Madam Vice President 🇺🇲

When I’m tired and feel beaten by a tough day seeing dogs suffer I open my phone for inspiration and look at old photos. Sienna when I found her this time last year alone on the streets of Thailand after a life of giving puppies. Look at her now so fluffy and happy in Wales ❤️

He's trying his best.

Of all the things that never happened, this is the thing that never happened the most. #16DaysUntilTheBeginningOfTheEND-IfYouVOTE 🗳️ ✅

Last week little Gigi was dumped in the jungle and came close to death. She weighs just under 5lbs. Today Hank came in to see her. He said she is under his watch from now on. Anybody messes with her call him immediately he said ❤️

Frank is settling in well with us. 🦻 We have figured out he is deaf. But that's OK we will work around that with him 🥘 He is eating well and putting on some weight already Still very weak and sick but 5 days in things are looking up 🤞

If you need a smile today please enjoy Rocky being “walked” by his disabled brother Coconut. It’s not just a little thing either. Watch at the end and you’ll see they know exactly what they are doing. Dogs truly are special creatures ❤️

Reading about Musk’s possible interference with Ukrainian operations and donating $300+ million to Republicans in 2026 alone then reading how many people are still buying Teslas is hard to square. There is no reason to buy a Tesla in 2026. Plenty of other great EVs to choose from. #ev

TEXAS: Vote for James Talarico and send a champion to the U.S. Senate who will fight for YOU.

There is one fight in 2026: Is this going to be a Texas that is by and for the people, or is this the billionaires’ world? Whose side are you on? Join us for the last two weeks to help get out the vote.

It’s bad enough that Gavin Newsom opposes California’s Prop 40. But he also supports Prop 42, a billionaire-backed poison pill that would cancel out Prop 40 entirely and make it impossible to enact future wealth taxes. It’s clear whose side he’s on. Remember this in 2028.

Took me a couple of days but we eventually got this gorgeous gentle boy in. Hit by a car and locals throwing rocks at him. I called him Abraham Lincoln. Abe for short. He's scared but I can see from his eyes he thinks we might just be OK.
