@DGrayTexas45 Conservatives are so terrified at the idea of Texas turning blue that they have to resort to AI slop because they know there’s no actual controversial shit out there on either of these two outside of republicans having hurt feelings 😂

Democrats have been trying to turn Texas “purple” for Decades and they believe this ‘Ambiguously Gay Duo’ were/are the ones to do it. 😂🤪🤡

@Ren_aramb @kevinxu To be fair, you are touting POET. They have an empty HQ office and are a fraud.

Imagine paying @kevinxu $200 just to be told to go all in on 1 stock because it worked for him.
I went into $IREN in January alongside Kevin. My money would have been better spent on an ETF. Even after the $6B dilution was announced, he kept telling his massive following to stick with the stock.
At the end of the day, it’s on you to know who you follow.
You’re better off putting that $200 into an ETF and following the right people on X who share free alpha every day.
There are a lot of hidden gems on FinX. Some have 300k followers, some have 3k. There’s alpha on both, don’t go blindly following anyone’s advice.
PS: $IREN crowd, nothing against the stock. It was a massive win last year. But it’s about knowing when to recommend what. Timing matters. So does owning your losses.

@JasonVaughn @LoewyLawFirm @GregCasar Obamacare has made health insurance more expensive. A guaranteed payer will always do they. Subsidies are just more grift

@Twolfrecovery @nickirich14 @DanielleFong According to the National Alliance to end Homelessness, "Approximately 40%–60% of people experiencing homelessness in the U.S. are employed, either full or part-time."
If you want to start a thread about CA alone, feel free!
English
I need people to understand that about 60% of homeless people are employed but just don’t make enough to afford housing and that’s the real issue

People will say “he deserves it” because of the crime, and they’re not wrong. But we also need to ask bigger questions.
How does an 18-year-old reach a point where armed robbery becomes an option?
Is the system only there to punish at the end, or should it also prevent people from getting there in the first place?

NEW: Family of a Texas teen loses it as judge sentences him to 25 years in prison for robbing a convenience store.
Judge Raquel West was seen torching 18-year-old Caden James Fontenette before handing out the sentence.
"There was a time some years ago that there really wasn't even a question... State's attorneys were recommending youthful offenders probation. Let's give everybody an opportunity..." West said.
"You don't have a good likelihood of being successful if I were to put you on probation... I'm going to sentence you to a term of 25 years."
Fontenette pleaded guilty to aggravated robbery for a 2025 incident where he and two others robbed a convenience store at gunpoint.
The suspects were caught on camera assaulting the store clerk.
Fontenette will likely be in his 40s when he is released from prison.

@GrulkeLamonte Not high for the area but I thought 3D printed houses was about passing some of the cost savings on to the buyer...
English
Every day on my way to and from my son's school, I drive by these 3D printed homes in Mueller (a master development in Austin, TX).
1,607 sq ft, 3 bed, 2 bath for $980,609.
Icon Build is developing 12 homes on a single block.
It's been incredible to watch as they've moved the printer up and down the street, printing one home after another. However, this seems far too expensive!

@ephesianpaul15 @JustinBonomo We know why but he can’t say it.
His post is full of shit but he’s good comedy.
English
@JustinBonomo So you think lower income people are not competent to get an ID?
English
When I tell people in other countries that Americans vote on Tuesdays, they freak out.
“That should be illegal! It makes it so hard for working people to vote!”
Yup, that’s the point.
Also lines are much longer in poor neighborhoods.
In Georgia it’s illegal to give water to someone waiting in line to vote, even if they’ve been standing in the sun for 4 hours.
These “Save America” laws have the same intent. Rich people can always get ID and proof of citizenship, but for lower income people it’s often prohibitively difficult.
“But in theory it shouldn’t be hard for them to vote because…”
Look bro. I’ve gone knocking door to door ahead of elections before. I’ve spoken to hundreds of people who struggle to get to the polls because of these laws and inequities. You may not see it, but I promise you millions of people feel it.
The White House@WhiteHouse
PASS THE SAVE AMERICA ACT! 1. ALL VOTERS MUST SHOW VOTER I.D. (IDENTIFICATION!). 2. ALL VOTERS MUST SHOW PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP IN ORDER TO VOTE. 3. NO MAIL-IN BALLOTS (EXCEPT FOR ILLNESS, DISABILITY, MILITARY, OR TRAVEL!). 4. NO MEN IN WOMEN’S SPORTS. 5. NO TRANSGENDER MUTILATION SURGERY FOR CHILDREN.

@JustinBonomo @ephesianpaul15 Bonomo thinks poor people are dumb and can’t get IDs.
Of course, he also knows that 46 states have early voting but he omits it purposely from the post.
Not to mention mail in voting.

@BucksFilmRoom There is nothing to reload with. They wasted 3 prime years of Giannis on Doc Rivers.
The Bucks are not a serious organization.

Wouldn’t it be manning up to stay in Milwaukee and turn the ship around?
The easy thing to do is to ask out. The hard thing is to stick around and reload.

Mad enough to man up and say trade me to where I wanna go? Many have done it. Everyone outside of Milwaukee will understand

@ByingtonK @LoewyLawFirm @TDCAA No he hasn’t. He has been far from it. What he has been is pretty fair and educated on most of his points. Also you shouldn’t want someone spreading bunch of bullshit for either side.

This isn’t true at all.
The Grand Jury policy started with DA Margaret Moore and was a de facto policy in the final term of DA Rosemary Lehmberg.
I handed police shooting cases from 2005 to 2015, and all those cops went before the Grand Jury.
How is it no one ever does 10 minutes of research on this stuff ?

Brooke Taylor@Brooketaylortv
Critics are calling progressive District Attorney Jose Garza’s policy, which requires all officer involved shooting cases to go to a grand jury, outrageous. It comes after reports that the 3 officers who heroically shot and killed the Austin mass shooter would likely face a grand jury. This never implied that the District Attorney was ever pursuing criminal charges. Rather, it is a requirement for all officer-involved shooting cases to be presented to a grand jury in Travis County under the progressive DA Jose Garza (and in many other Texas jurisdictions that I have covered). I just spoke with the attorney hired by the Union to represent the Austin PD officers if the case goes to a grand jury. DA Garza said his office is not pursuing criminal charges and called any counterclaims politically motivated. However, he did not say whether the case will still be presented to a grand jury, as per policy, and the union also remains unsure. The DA office has not responded to my emails requesting clarification. But it is now raising questions about the bigger picture—whether this blanket policy should even be in place. Attorney Doug O’Connell explains that DA Jose Garza instituted this policy after taking office in 2021, reportedly at the direction of Wren Collective, a criminal-justice reform group that provides financial support to progressive prosecutors. He also claims there is no legal basis for the policy and notes that it adds stress to an already stressful job for officers. “Every time they are dispatched to a violent criminal call, they have to be thinking, I could end up dead or indicted,” he said.

@louwbreytenbach @realBrandonGill Saying the bible was pro abortion was in his interview with Rogan.
English
@louwbreytenbach @realBrandonGill He said the bible supports abortion and transitioning kids.

@realBrandonGill Damn, you must be really worried if you have to go digging back 5 years to find something even remotely worthy of outrage and this is it? 😂
English
@LoewyLawFirm @cost_of_bums Adam would know, he’s a big Garza donor and is in the loop. Trust his info on the DA.
English
DA Jose Garza obviously was never going to prosecute the cops who killed the terrorist.
This wasn’t difficult to predict.

“Last game we played them AJ Green got a ton of pin downs (20pts 6/12 3pt on 2/4) and you could see it, they had adjusted. They were going to stay out which allowed us to drive and roll. We just kept telling AJ ‘we’re going to keep running the action but the action is not for you, it’s for us to go downhill and make plays’ and you know we got a lot of our bigs rolling for layups, our guards going downhill and that’s the byproduct of having shooting on the floor.”

@Peoples_Pundit I mean the R won by 30pts. You are talking about a precinct with 300 votes
English
What excuse are we making up for this one, folks?
1. While it's nuanced and complicated, special elections actually do have predictive value.
2. Even if they didn't , they are at the very least showing us that our data is correct and Republicans do not want to vote.

🚨BREAKING🚨 Democrats have flipped Precinct 520305 in Oklahoma’s State House District 35 Special Election. Trump won this precinct by 60 points in 2024. Tonight, the Democrat Luke Kruse won it by 15 points. That’s a 75 point swing to the Democrats in one precinct.

@mkebossman @TiWindisch It’s definitely too late but can’t stand to see his face on the sidelines again.
Bucks organization has to be one of worst ever to waste a generational talent like Giannis.
English
I better not see anybody playing fan police about this pathetic Bucks effort being booed. These fans paid a lot of money to travel through historic cold temps to watch their team shrivel up against a team sitting FIVE starters this half.
Another new low in a season full of them.

@SmellyBucksFan @TiWindisch Hiring Griffin/Doc ended the franchise.
Trading for Dame was honestly the precursor but I don’t blame Dame. Never got to see that partnership healthy and with a real coach.
English
@TiWindisch Trading dame ended this franchise. If we were playing like this with dame in street clothes this would be way more digestible. Shit ain’t getting better this is it right here. No getting dame back next year
English
Dread it, waive Dame to try and run from it, the gap year has come for the Milwaukee Bucks. That much is not debatable at this point. The question now is will the Bucks lean in and can they sell Giannis on cashing in a lotto pick and a rapid retool. No trade fixes this team.
