@evan7257 Whitmire is more pragmatic and thinking bigger picture and being more long term and knows which fights to pick and which ones make no sense to worry about. A city council cannot effect Federal laws. that has not gone well around the country.

John Whitmire calls fighting Greg Abbott over ICE policy a 'waste of time.' Legal experts disagree. houstonchronicle.com/politics/houst…

@BarackObama @NYCMayor Finally Fully embracing socialism these days.

Great spending time with New York City’s Cutest. And thanks to @NYCMayor for giving me an excuse to break out my best “Wheels on the Bus”

@RAPHOOPTX This "Texas confronts water shortages, education gaps, energy needs, infrastructure, border security, and growth." is a terrible statement against Gov Abbott and the GOP and their poor leadership in these areas at the state level.

Aux côtés de plus de cinquante pays, nous portons une initiative pour la liberté de navigation dans le détroit d’Ormuz.

EU leaders assisting Trump to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

@FurkanGozukara Not necessary anymore, they can go h9me and continue to be useless

CNN's Melissa Bell reveals the world is completely bypassing the United States. Over 30 global leaders met in Paris to secure the Strait of Hormuz, deliberately excluding Washington. The international community is actively organizing to survive Trump's disastrous war.

@visegrad24 Is this a joke? Or the @TheOnion cause this has to be. Joke that they announce this the same day Trump announced it has been done already.

BREAKING: Merz, Starmer, Macron and Meloni issue joint announcement in Paris saying they’re sending a naval mission to the Hormuz Strait to protect freedom of navigation 🇩🇪🇬🇧🇫🇷🇮🇹

@HarrisCoJudge Nothing has had more effect on all Harris county citizens that your insane tax increase and reckless spending.

Important discussions and decisions are taking place that directly impact you. Watch our reel for a quick recap of what happened at the April 16, Harris County Commissioners Court!

@ManoForTexas And yet all of our property taxes are higher than they were last year. Taking credit for a completely ineffective job is pathetic. The @TexasGOP should be embarrassed.

We delivered a record $51 billion in property tax relief, putting real money back into Texans’ pockets. By dedicating 15% of the state budget to lowering taxes, we made it clear that taxpayers come first. I’ll keep fighting to make Texas more affordable for families and homeowners.

@SkyNews They literally waited until Trump took care of it to announce they will help.

@eurofounder WHAT THE ACTUAL F($&? This has got to be the stupidist thing I’ve read this week

Netherlands just announced a new 120% wealth tax It will apply to the ultra-rich who earn above €150k per year So if you make €200k, you pay €60k on the €50k above the threshold Dutch officials explained it is to "discourage wealth hoarding behaviour" So beautifuly said Finally someone in Europe has the moral spine to put an end this selfish accumulation of wealth No human being should make over €150k a year It is a vulgar and borderline pornographic amount I hope more EU countries will adopt this progressive legislation This is why Europe is, and always will be, light years ahead of America

It’s good news that the Strait of Hormuz has now reopened. This must be a long lasting and workable solution, without tolls or restrictions on routes. Today we announced our joint plan with France and other international partners to protect freedom of navigation. We need to see a return to peace and stability, and a permanent ceasefire.

@TexasTribune @JohnCornyn Of course he does. The boomer generation does not want to give up on the old man. #termlimits

@salinasforhtx A city subverting federal laws is not legal.

Governor Abbott’s threat to strip $110 million in public safety funding from Houston is an attempt to bully our city for doing what is right, what is legal, and what upholds the Constitution. The premise that Houston must either repeal this ordinance or lose funding is a false choice designed to force compliance through fear. Those are not the only options. Houston has a clear legal path forward. I sent a letter to urge the Mayor and the City Attorney to immediately file a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) to prevent the State from withdrawing funds and seek a declaratory judgment affirming that this ordinance is lawful. If we act now and file, the court will issue an opinion as early as today, providing City Council with critical guidance before any rushed decision is made regarding repeal. There is no funding that will be put at risk by seeking this emergency relief ahead of the State’s April 20th deadline. Houstonians deserve a city that will stand up for them, defend its laws, and protect its residents. I respectfully urge the Mayor to take immediate legal action.

@FOX26Houston Where was this under Biden when it was so obvious he was a vegetable

Democratic Representative Jamie Raskin has introduced a bill that would create a new 17-member panel to help declare presidential fitness under the 25th amendment. fox26houston.com/news/25th-amen…

@SenWarren So deceptive it’s disgusting, I’m sick of career politicians lying to us

If you paid even a penny in federal income tax last year, you paid more than: Tesla Southwest Disney Live Nation HP United PayPal CVS Health Palantir Citigroup PG&E 3M That's right. They paid $0 in federal income tax. It's time for big corporations to pay their fair share.

@TeamCornyn @JohnCornyn @RepNateMoran In my mind it comes down to Term Limits, and if you won’t step down we have to get rid of you

This race comes down to character or corruption. Congressman @RepNateMoran just said Ken Paxton’s corruption has breached the public's trust. Texans deserve a senator they can trust to fight for them, not one they have to defend from scandal after scandal.

@SenMarkKelly How do you feel about the Pope defending the IRGC that has murdered 45,000 of their own citizens.

As a Catholic, I find it abhorrent that the President of the United States would publicly attack the Successor of St. Peter. Donald Trump is flailing. His war in Iran has led to the death and injury of American servicemembers and the death of Iranian children. He will attack anyone or anything to try to protect himself, even the Church that millions of Americans find faith and comfort in every day. The American people deserve a president who understands the consequences of his words and takes responsibility for his actions.

@mazemoore @BillAckman This is the current Democrat party

Just two months ago Adam Schiff proudly endorsed his longtime friend Eric Swalwell for Governor of California. Schiff praised Swalwell's character and said that Swalwell wasn't "fundamentally indecent" like Trump. These two sleazeballs have been lying together for over a decade. There is no chance that Schiff didn't know what Swalwell was doing.

@JohnCornyn Well that was @WesleyHuntTX

Makes sense to nominate most electable candidate rather than someone with the baggage of crookedken.com
