Ken Paxton took roughly 350 taxpayer-funded trips outside Texas as AG (25 foreign), including fleeing to Utah while millions froze in the 2021 winter storm. Security tab: $3.1 million.
Now heโs jet-setting in Iceland mid-Senate race.
Fiscal conservative or just self-serving?
Talarico: "If you've seen an attack ad on your TV, that was Elon. If you've gotten lies in your mailbox, that was Elon. If you've received a text message saying scary things about me with scary black and white photos. That was Elon too."
This was Biloxi, Mississippi, yesterday, where Pete Buttigieg rallied with Scott Colom.
Notice anything about the crowd?
Itโs predominantly white, showing support for a Black Democrat running for the US Senate in Mississippi.
Thatโs worth paying attention to.

๐ Ms Rachel: โMoms - #ICE broke the wrist of a 20-year-old student who has special needs on his way to school. They had the wrong person. Heโs a US citizen, not that it would be okay if he wasnโt a US citizen. They left him on the side of the road with no medical care..
๐จ๐ณ๐ง๐ท Brazilโs re-elected president Lula: โOur army is larger than Chinaโs, better than Americaโs, and larger than Russiaโs. Our army is an army of dignity, democracy, education, and healthcare.โ
๐๐บ๐ฆ Little Angelina should be alive, playing and laughing today. Instead, Russiaโs war stole her future while she lay in her stroller at a playground.
Donโt stay silent. Help us stop Russian terror. No child should ever be a target of war. No parent should have to bury their child.
Off the charts Trump family corruption. Kushner got Billions of foreign funds, while spearheading foreign policy.
And the Hunter Biden hunters are silent. @MarshaBlackburn
FLASHBACK โ Republican Paul Weyrich (co-founder of the Heritage Foundation & ALEC): โI donโt want everybody to voteโฆ our leverage in elections goes up as the voting populace goes down.โ
Theyโve been saying it out loud for years.
Please vote. ๐ณ๏ธ ๐บ๐ธ
Trumpโs DOJ has charged James Comey AGAIN, this time under the Espionage Act over a 2016 New York Times story. In DOJโs own words, Comey had staff talk to a reporter to โcorrect misinformationโ in a Reuters article.
Comey: Well, they're back again.
It would almost be funny if it weren't such an appalling abuse of the DOJ. One that we cannot become numb to.
Nothing's changed with me. I'm still innocent. I'm still not afraid of these people. And I still believe in the independent federal judiciary.
In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. โDigital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.โ This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flรกvio Bolsonaro.
Ohioโs biggest newspaper broke its own rules to endorse Amy Acton, calling Ramaswamyโs vile attack ad disqualifying.
โUsing childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it crosses a line Ohioans should defend, whatever their party.โ

Good night, dear friends. Thank you for keeping Ukraine in your hearts, for your prayers, your kindness, your help, and your unwavering support. Thank you for standing beside us, for refusing to look away, and for reminding us, even in our darkest moments, that we are not alone.
๐บ๐ธ๐บ๐ฆPresident Zelenskyy: Sanctions were lifted. Nobody gave us additional Patriot missiles.
Instead of expanding Starlink access, they reduced the speed of what we already had.That is why there was a response. We are fighting for our lives.

EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jetโฆ
OBAMA: I got criticized for tightening up enforcement at the border. But I don't recall anybody campaigning on sending masked agents running through our streets. Don't recall anybody talking about law abiding citizens being arrested, detained, or shot.
Blanche on CBS says his suit against Alaska is "asking the court to step in where the Alaska Supreme Court didn't, which is to look at federal law and if necessary to allow a process for Alaska to decide who should be certified as the winner."
(So, the voters won't get to decide. Got it.)
