I stood in the rain today in Plano, TX, between two older ladies who had each come to their first demonstration, on their own. They were both so glad they came, and one was moved to tears by the experience.

I didn't take pics but the feeling of being in a group of people with no visible beginning or end was so thrilling. The opposite of online anomie, and a living counterpoint to the wary, isolated, compartmentalized world the shitheads want to make. It's simple and obvious I guess but it means a lot.
Sorry to be corny but the aerial shots of these crowds are almost indescribably moving and hopeful

Yup.
When you consider that businesses are run by dictators—that a firm is not a democracy—it makes sense why a series of rich guys at the top of the capitalist world think government can be run without following any laws.
How Musk, Trump, and your boss learned to hate democracy
Work is a dictatorship. Is the government next?

A Texas judge eliminates Biden-era rule on medical debt in credit reports, impacting Americans' credit scores and leaving Texas with some of the lowest scores.
That medical debt is probably gonna stay on your credit report
But you should know (and so should they) that debt collectors must follow rules and you have remedies

Gov Abbott to announce flood relief funding in Kerrville tomorrow. He’s able to do this despite no flood legislation passing the lege because it’s always been something he could do by exec order. We didn’t need a special session, Republicans used flood victims to force their redistricting scam

Families who lost everything in the floods are still waiting for help. Yet the first bill Republicans rushed out of committee today wasn’t about flood relief—it was about racial redistricting for political power grabs.
6 hours after quorum, they chose Trump over Texans.

Per NBC’s Ryan Chandler: Rep Nicole Collier is locked inside of the Texas House chamber because she refuses to sign a “permission slip” to leave the floor with a DPS escort.

Gonna kick back and spend the afternoon solving a hard-boiled period mystery on the holodeck. Sure there’s an ion storm going on, but it’s probably fine. I won’t be trapped in there or anything.

I just went on Fox News to tell the truth about the redistricting power grab in Texas.
I asked a simple question: “If Republican policies are so popular, why do they need to redraw these maps; why not run on their policies?”
He refused to answer — and cut the interview early.

Proposed redistricting would put a Fort Worth community in a rural GOP district nearly 150 miles away — part of a redistricting push critics call a power grab. On the 60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act, leaders warned that this is "ground zero."

Trump's Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick just relaxed export restrictions on AI chip manufacturers AMD and Nvidia.
Lutnick's family business empire holds a combined $1.1B stake in both companies.
"Conflict of interest" is an understatement.
