I know tis the the season for election related texts, calls, and emails... but apparently the "unsubscribe" feature in gmail is worthless. I donated to Gina Hinojosa and you should too. Hers is the most consequential governor's race by far. Texas needs a reset.

The whole world is trying to steal from you. Maybe not your friends, but every single corporation you get services from is going to raise your rates or quietly try to take as much of your money as possible. It is only a matter of time. Oh and FU #ATT

Dear Texans: Here's an election pro tip. If a candidate won't debate You don't vote for them. Period. It's that simple. By not debating they're saying you're concerns are not a priority. Vote for those who will debate. They have plans and value your concerns. Vote Talarico! Vote Hinojosa!

Texas is a state for capitalists and their slaves. Human rights are secondary to money in Texas, and at least half have learned to never question their status at the bottom. Texas are far more tribal than you can imagine.

Capitalism will destroy itself without regulation. These ai tech bros said as much. In the usa where everything gets more expensive and government will not listen to our concerns, capitalists are making a killing while destroying the network of labor that made it possible. #DSA

In case you've been in a coma for the last decade, justice is in grave danger. Courts are overwhelmed, and lack any mechanism to enforce rulings. Americans have lost faith in the judicial system. Not just the high courts, but locally also.

No doubt in my mind the USA would've been significantly better positioned in the world had Hillary won in 2016. Per the Vanity Fair article, JD Vance seemed to agree, which gives me major pause. We already know how willing establishment dems are to capitulate to the Israel lobby or tech bros.

"WOKE" "DEI" for mentally ill neo Nazis and a clear as day threat to anyone opposed to fascism. The only thing making this illustration more timely would be Elon and the tech bros saluting next to Ye with Flock cameras pointed at a gagged audience. Your vote on Nov 3 is your last say.

The Kennedy Center has already been stained by Trump's legacy. The building is a lot like the state of our democracy in that standards have been ignored and it can be torn down. The building will likely be destroyed because this administration is blind to their stink and feeds off negative energy.

The thing about bribes is often time the person accepting the bribe is unaware of the details. this trumpty 5k check bribe however is a trap in the open. Dems lose- MAGA trades the lie of 5k for the political win. Dems win- repubs blame dems for no 5k check.

If Ukraine, Gaza and the West Bank have shown us anything, it's that agreeing to disarm allows bullies to think they can push you around. They have also repeatedly shown underdogs can fight. #resist

Let me ask you something: Define "true Christianity" Is it like when magas say "real Americans"? Sounds like a dog whistle to me. What makes you an authority? And why do you think your idea of what is correct is actually correct? Do you have proof? Or just faith?

The most difficult part to navigating trumpism is the constant moving of goal posts. Policy failure? The art of the deal. Rising prices? Patriotism. Impending loss? Calls to cheat. Conditional $5k checks admidst rising national debt? The hottest economy. But it is only difficult because it's a cult.

MAGAs hear Trump says they'll get a $5000 check and they believe it. And even if they know it is a lie, they'd rather take a chance because government hasn't ever done that for them before... well except those covid checks, so it is worth a shot... because fascism is better than "woke democracy" lol

As a leftist, as a progressive, Clinton was not my ideal candidate. But listening to her here so clearly juxtaposes leadership styles between what we have that I'd vote for her again ib 2028. Bcz we have set ourselves back so far, we need a reset button. We need to start from a point of sanity

Trade democracy for $5000. That is if you believe this administration which has prioritized lies, tax cuts for the wealthy, spending on war we don't need, an over inflated immigration enforcment budget, will still have any money left to pay "dividends" ...in exchange for democracy. #bribe #fools

"Hakeem Piker, the DSA were wearing masks, to hide their identity..." said by the MAGA lady I work with after I asked her about what she saw when Elon Musk threw that infamous 'stiff arm salute' They'll change the subject as fast as possible when you confront them about their fascist tendencies.
