ICE arrested the mom of a 9-year-old at a school bus stop in Austin, leaving him alone and crying. The video has profanity and is heartbreaking to watch, but it shows the fear/pain of what happened. This is evil. This is wrong. And it has to stop.

This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

Very productive meeting with President Xi for both the U.S.A. and China. Tremendous things will be happening. Like almost everyone else, he seemed to like calling the poorly and inaccurately named Artificial Intelligence to a far more accurate and important name, SUPER INTELLIGENCE. That would be “SUPER!” Everyone last night agreed, also. President DJT

Talarico wants data centers to pay for their own grid upgrades, recycle their water, create real jobs, & get a community's consent before moving in. Paxton took nearly $500,000 from the industry. Texans want a senator who fights for them. That's why we will have a #BlueWaveIn40Days

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton gave a well-connected attorney who admitted to s*xually abusing an 8-year-old boy over multiple years just a 30-day jail sentence — and let him avoid the sex offender registry. Now, Paxton is running for U.S. Senate against James Talarico with Trump’s backing.
