If the GOP didn't feel those who don't subscribe to their ideology—in Texas—breathing down their necks, they wouldn't be this desperate. People need to remember that after Gov. Ann Richards, the GOP took over via cheating, & the Corp-DNC hasn't invested tangiblly in Texas since; they've forgone us.

At Oak Lawn United Methodist Church’s nativity, Mary and Joseph are silhouettes, surrounded by a chain link fence topped with razor wire. Their halos are old bicycle wheels. A shopping cart and two metal bins, frequently used by the unhoused as firepits, flank the scene.

Trump’s obsession with me is beyond weird. He needs serious help.
Since he has no economic policies to tout, he’s resorting to regurgitating bigoted lies instead.

Trump is coming after our BBC. He’s suing it for $10 billion, and the Conservatives and Reform are cheering him on.
The BBC must not pay Trump a penny. Instead of rolling over, it should sue Trump back for the lies he’s telling about it.
