not the first time #KenPaxton intentionally let a predator get away with it. www.texastribune.org/2026/05/19/k...
thepaxtonrecord.com I invited #KenPaxton to be a collaborator on this post, hope he accepts
A. Just because a government leader tells you to bomb civilians does not make it ok. Same goes for civilian infrastructure such as bridges or water and electricity plants. Same goes for racially motivated profiling and rounding up of humans into inhumane camps. These are all war crimes. 1/3
A geography reminder: Iran is in Asia. Just like Afghanistan, Vietnam, Iraq, and Korea (where 75 years later we still send soldiers because the Korean War never actually ended). #wallaceshawn #princessbride #Thosewhodonotlearnhistoryaredoomedtorepeatit #Iran #ForeverWars
First he forces us to pay $1.5 billion per day to fire missiles at Iranian children, now he gloats about price gouging gasoline? Restrict the supply. Sell us the same thing for a much higher price. Maybe that’s why Trump isn’t worried about accidentally bombing oil refineries. 1/3
Bad Bunny: “God bless America!” [waves American flag, sings about 4th of July and baseball, launches red white and blue fireworks] Conservatives: “Why can’t you be more patriotic?”
Among the small percentage of people listed as being violent, thousands of them were accused of a crime (by police or ICE), but those charges were dropped (by a prosecutor) or dismissed (by a judge). ICE doesn't care if charges stick, they expect people to be out of country long before trial. 1/4
Six brave ice officers ($50k bonus each) did a warrantless stop on a Minneapolis middle schooler armed with Hot Cheetos. The child was accused of walking without an ID. Within seconds, he was pushed into an unmarked vehicle. His name is unknown. 1/2
Apparently the only thing I use ai for is to help me disable ai. I am ready to admit ai cannot do this simple task. In the future when an ai is forced on me, I will save time and by searching reddit.
There are 2 presentations I want to hear at the same time as my presentation @curriculumandpedagogygroup #cdmx #GlorietaDeLosInsurgentes
When you learn more and better understand the situation, changing your mind is good. It is not too late to do the right thing. Say no to genocide.

Under Trump, DHS is not targeting terrorists or cartel members. DHS is targeting regular people, including legal immigrants & US citizens. Republicans like to say “workers should come here legally.” But Trump terminated the status of 530,000 people who came legally. Now he can deport them. (1/7)
Even if you voted for them, you are not their real constituency.
Insurance towed it direct to salvage yard, “expedited as a probable total loss.” I feel embarrassed, because I fight climate change on behalf of *other* people. Thought there’d be 5 or 10 more years before it would cause major disruptions to me personally. How naive. Sigh.
Last sunset for my Kia PHEV, casualty of the RGV flood. Nobody thought it was possible for Harlingen to see 22 inches of rain. 3-year-old car, 65k miles, got over 300mpg in city driving and 50mpg on road trips. Never had any mechanical or electrical problem. Body and interior in near-mint condition.
Barrios entered the US legally. Now he’s falsely accused (not in court, because they won’t let him appear in court) of having a gang tattoo. Aside from that, the government keeps using the word “deported” which is an obvious lie. You can’t deport someone to a place they’ve never been! (1/4)
Are you a US citizen? You too are eligible to be detained by ICE for 10 hours
Governor Abbott wants a government takeover of private schools. #NoVouchers #HB3 #Texas
Now he's just making up numbers. 250% would mean taxes that increase Canadian milk to $10 per gallon. Essentially a milk embargo. Treating our closest ally like they're ISIS.
Today's demonstration in Austin, to support Texas schools, is being moved indoors. Due to cold weather. 1201 Lavaca St. #PublicEducation
I looked it up, Elon Musk really did these things. Is it from drug abuse, or what? Hopefully someone does a wellness check. Hopefully he has actual friends, and not just an entourage.
