There are a lot of Trump officials who need to be impeached, but Russell Vought -- the quarterback of all the Project 2025 fuckery and a central player in the administration's overreach -- really needs to be at the top of the list.

A good review of the horrors of Trump's Supreme Court and how it has trashed civil rights and entangled government with religion. Unless Dems take the Senate, it will get worse. Vote for the Dem - even if imperfect - to block more Trump SCOTUS appointments. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/30/o...

A reminder that KKK criminal Ken Paxton offered a 1 day prison sentence in Texas for a child rapist and a judge gave that rapist a 60 day sentence which ended up being reduced to 29 days for good behavior. Ken provides protection for pedophiles as well as crooks.

I hope so. This is the best chance we’ve ever had at flipping a seat in Texas. Not only do people seem to really like Talarico, Paxton is a generationally awful candidate. One thing to note: if they’re spending this much money in Texas, they’re fucking terrified.

James Talarico called Ken Paxton’s cell to invite him to a Fox News debate with Bret Baier. Paxton didn’t pick up. Talarico has accepted four local-TV debates; Paxton has committed to none. Texans deserve more than a Senate candidate who ghosts the debate stage #momsky#sheshed
