Ken Paxton is a sick man who thinks it’s a joke to push over a million Texans into poverty by stealing their hard-earned benefits. Ken Paxton should NEVER be allowed anywhere near the levers of power, since clearly he thinks working people are a joke!

A graphic with a photo of Ken Paxton and a superimposed photo of Alex Lawson. The text says, "It's disgusting that Ken Paxton is laughing while planning to cut Social Security benefits for everyone in this country, including the nearly 5 million Texans who rely on Social Security and the 1.3 million Texans who Social Security keeps out of poverty. This is a sick man who thinks it’s a joke to push over a million Texans into poverty by stealing their hard-earned benefits. This is a man who should not be allowed anywhere near the levers of power, since clearly he thinks working people are a joke to be laughed at with the billionaire donors he works for. – Alex Lawson Executive Director of Social Security Works”

Both WaPo and @oliverdarcy.bsky.social are reporting that one of the stories the WH claims they banned Politico for was based off a background briefing (that is, they're complaining Politico reported what WH told them to). Darcy makes it clear JD was the background briefer in this case.

This is so good to see: Even in red areas, strong disapproval of Trump is vastly outweighing strong approval of him. This is a key reason the midterm map is expanding into redder areas. The anti-Trump intensity gap is truly remarkable. I wrote about it here: newrepublic.com/article/2151...
