@thelauracoates that’s was rough today and I can’t even imagine the trauma you must be experiencing witnessing that firsthand. Know that I (and many others) are worried and thinking about you today and hope you will be ok.

This needs to go VIRAL: Republican Congressman Dan Crenshaw said that he’s “extremely disappointed” in Republican lawmakers who want to “torpedo” the immigration bill in the Senate: “If we have a bill that, on net, significantly decreases illegal immigration, and we sabotage that, that is inconsistent with what we told our voters we would do.” Republicans, can you tell me what is wrong with what he said?

@guelphgirlchris @JohnPaluskaPR Embarrassing

NotAStandupGuy. That’s one word, right? @JohnPaluskaPR

@guelphgirlchris @JohnPaluskaPR Awful

@TimAlberta Very important work that ALL should read. My question: what can we do to improve this situation, reverse these movements? It’s critical to learn and know but how can we make positive changes when it all seems so set into a bad path?

🧨 I've written a book. About Christianity. About being a pastor's kid. About the evangelical church idolizing America at the expense of its witness for Jesus Christ. Four years of reporting. A lifetime of reflection. I'd be honored if you pre-ordered: axios.com/2023/06/15/tim…

Imagine posting this after voting against government funding for mental health services.

Listen to JoJo for she speaks great wisdom:

Nikki should hammer the theme of anti-Ukraine today, anti-Israel tomorrow. And: You can’t count on Trump to be pro-Israel, he hangs out with antisemites or people who aren’t pro-Israel (Bannon, Tucker, Candace Owens, etc.). Denting Trump’s pro-Israel image would help in GOP race.

Yup. That’s why it’s no longer my party.

@TheRichFromCali They represent their congressional districts, who should be held responsible for the conduct of their representatives in the people’s house. Congress should not remove them but their constituents should be horrified at their representatives.

@Thaleresq @HTBurden @CalltoActivism The Declaration of Independence is not a governing document but rather a letter sent to the King of England. We are bound by the Constitution that prohibits the establishment of a state-sponsored religion. This is inviolate.

@HTBurden @CalltoActivism Sorry. Was driving and dictating. Declaration of Independence. Point being even stronger. Thanks.

I NEEDED THIS RIGHT NOW In case you missed it, here’s Democrat Maxwell Frost silencing Lauren Boebert over her comments that the government should serve God. Frost: “My colleague Rep. Boebert said, ‘The church is supposed to direct the government, the government is not supposed to direct the church. I’m tired of this separation of church and state junk.’” Frost then gave it to her: To Lauren Boebert, the “Junk being the Constitution and Bill of Rights.” Does it concern you that the Republican Party is being led by what experts are calling a “Christo-Fascist” movement? Do you support a strong Separation of Church and State?

@HighIQPosts @krassenstein According to @SpeakerJohnson the “American heart” is to blame. 🤦‍♂️ Honestly, all people have similar struggles and conflict world-wide. It’s uniquely America where those in conflict have easy access to firearms with high capacity and rates of fire.

@krassenstein Why is this so common in the USA? Even in countries that have guns you don’t see this nonsense. You or loved one go out and there’s a significantly higher chance they might not come back. Education ? Glorification of killing / guns?

BREAKING: Halloween Celebration Mass shooting in Ybor City, Tampa, Florida Early this morning: - At least 18 are injured and 2 are dead after a mass shooting took place this morning. - The shooting took place on the 1600 block of East 7th Avenue in Tampa. - The shooting began as a feud between two people, with many caught in the crossfire right in the middle of Ybor City. - Police have detained at least one person who surrendered into custody. - Reports indicate that at least 30-40 shots were fired in total. When is enough enough??

It really is amazing how damn good Republicans are at taking out their Republican Speakers. Newt Gingrich John Boehner Paul Ryan and now Kevin McCarthy Remember, Republicans did this to themselves. It reflects a lack of governing philosophy and the temperament to hold power.

@TweetTonyMac This argument equally supports that Paxton’s justice department does awful things. Having the AG’s lawyer undermining law enforcement doesn’t sit well. Paxton should be beyond reproach and he’s clearly not.

Buzbee is eloquently laying out the divide between those of us who know the Feds sometimes do awful things and those who are still delusional that the FBI and DOJ are beyond reproach. #txlege #Paxtonimpeachment

@Justice_Blinded Agree. It was an odd approach

I may just be a baby lawyer, but I can’t imagine that crossing your arms and screaming at a witness on cross that a burner phone had to come from 7/11 is a very effective way to do things in trial. #PaxtonImpeachment

Want to help prevent mass shootings? Stop voting for people like this.

Gov. Abbott, you must act on gun violence | Opinion dallasnews.com/opinion/editor…

Never forget

@glennkirschner2 And the Allen gun show will likely go on as scheduled — held seemingly weekly just across the street from this shooting site. The Allen city council needs to immediately cancel forever Gun shows on city managed properties or otherwise under their control. #allentx

Watching the press conference in Allen, TX. Politicians are offering thoughts & prayers, announcing vigils, committing to praying for the victims, praising first responders, & NO ONE EVEN MENTIONS SENSIBLE GUN CONTROL MEASURE TO PREVENT TOMORROW’S MASS SHOOTINGS. WE ARE FAILING.

@leachfortexas YOU actively sponsor legislation to promote guns. YOU act to make this problem worse and threaten the safety of our children. Legislature is in session, YOU have the ability to course-correct. Propose real changes and advocate for safety! STOP being part of the problem

Right in the heart of HD67. Multiple victims now being reported. Please avoid the area. And please pray for all those involved and affected. #txlege
