If you want to really know how the outrage machine gets fired up: 1. Schmitt plans to drop “bombshell” on Smith 2. Someone plants story that Schmitt is a Vance VP contender to run same day 3. Right-wing Twittersphere gets talking points 4. Schmitt steps in it 5. Scheduled tweets go out anyway

For once, Ken Paxton is being honest: if it weren't for our broken campaign finance system, he'd have no shot. #UnrigWashington candidate @jamestalarico.bsky.social is running to reform our system and fight for Texans. Ken Paxton can't say the same. #TXSEN

We've all heard how corrupt Ken Paxton is. But he is also incredibly stupid if he thinks this "well, he served 60 whole days" excuse for releasing Adam Hoffman, who sexually abused a boy over a three-year period starting when he was 8.

Jake Tapper of CNN is engaged in a lengthy and graphic grilling of a haggard-looking New York prosecutor about his past actions in the Cornel gang-rape case that has resurfaced. It’s brutal. The phrase “I have a daughter…” was brandished.

Apparently $12M was moved from HHS's Office of Minority Health to help fund RFK Jr's security, while grants supporting preventive care for low income communities were canceled. Waste, fraud, abuse, and a spectacularly bad use of public health dollars 😒

Per Texas media, it’s looking like +100K registrations were affected. Secretary of State is saying that it shouldn’t affect voting.
We reached out to 24 counties today to see the extent of the problem. Here's what we got back:
Collin County - 40,000+
Travis County - 32,000
Brazoria County - 9,000+
Hays County - 8,100
Cameron County - 5,000
