Restore healthcare and open the government at the same time. To delay is simply Republicans making sure to kill healthcare. Y Nada por la gente Monica de la Cruz putting party over the people's needs. #TX15 #rgv

Our generals, most of whom earned a combat patch, are not there to serve on the front lines but to oversee combat operations from logistics to strategic planning and implementation. Those skill sets and knowledge come from a service that takes decades to learn. To gut that talent would be dangerous.

Mrs. Prock gave me this certificate when I tried preventing UTPA from ending the Rio magazine. I share it because of the threats to freedom of speech from violence and gov. actions/suggestions from the president, governor & ed leadership that capitulates to political pressure.

So how many millions is Texas A&M going to have to pay for firing a professor who broke no laws while teaching her class? I should say how much will taxpayers have to pay.

Hijole: Street Knowledge. The Supreme Court says federal agents can use race as a factor to stop people along with other factors like language. But on the street it is one's race that is used as the sole factor and other factors are added afterwards. Simply put it's about race and racism.

Trinidad Gonzales @gonzalest956.bsky.social · Sep 8

Hijole: the Supreme Court ruled that federal agents can stop and interrogate people that look like us without cause. Y Nada para la gente Monica de la Cruz, #TX15 is remaining silent in agreement. This is what she ran on. #rgv

Hijole: Medicare is going to start denying coverage for our abuelos by using AI, and the company that runs the AI gets paid a bonus for denying coverage. Y La Monica de la Cruz, #TX15 voted for this change. Crony capitalism. #rgv
