This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor 3) Donors make huge gains 4) Repeat This is why we must get Big Money out of politics — and support the candidates who will fix the system.

The race between Republican state Attorney General Ken Paxton and Democratic state Rep. James Talarico has become so expensive that the cost to Republicans may matter almost as much as the outcome itself. Read more from Jack Fitzpatrick:

A Texas-sized money pit: Inside the real cost of Ken Paxton’s deflated campaign
The Texas Senate race has attracted nearly half a billion dollars so far, heavily weighted toward Republicans. Allies of Sen. John Cornyn wonder how that money might have been spent in Iowa or Ohio.

Talarico delivered this line at a campaign rally in Texas, drawing a direct contrast between how aggressively the govt pursues undocumented workers versus how little it pursues wealthy predators & tax cheats. Talarico leads Paxton 48% to 45% in a state no Democrat has won statewide since 1988.

Trump announced disaster aid for the state of Wisconsin on Wednesday in a decidedly partisan manner, crediting a Republican candidate in the state’s gubernatorial race rather than Wisconsin’s current Democratic governor, who originally made the request for aid.

Why have so many people fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. It's because corporations and billionaires rigged the system in their favor — and a bought-off political establishment let it happen. It's time to fix the system.

I think people would be less likely to buy large vehicles if it was a huge pain in the ass to drive them here, especially in cities. Higher gas prices are part of it. But there should be extra fees and taxes based on weight. Parking your giant Suburban should be incredibly difficult. etc.
