@GinaHinojosaTX @GregAbbott_TX Facts are nasty things Gina - California's average residential electricity rate is roughly double that of Texas, hovering around 33.7 cents per kilowatt vs 16.3 cents in Texas!

The @GregAbbott_TX campaign is peddling in filth because his record is trash: ✏️Schools in crisis; 📈Property taxes up 75%; 🔌Most unaffordable electricity; 😷Most uninsured children; 💧1st major American city to run out of water. That’s Abbott’s record. He owns it. Underaged pics of me doing whatever their disturbed imaginations envision won’t change that. sacurrent.com/news/texas-new…

@RepJamesFrank It only makes sense when looked at through the jaundice eyes of the hospitals

I will never understand how keeping doctors from owning hospitals is logical. As a businessman, I can own a hospital. If I go to medical school, pass the medical exams, complete a residency & become a doctor - the feds now forbid me from owning a hospital. SMH. #txlege
Real Doc Speaks@realdocspeaks

In a letter to @RepBethVanDuyne and @RepCuellar, The American Hospital Association said, " Physician self-referral is the antithesis of fair competition". If the self-referral conflict is real, then it shouldn't be allowed for either independent physicians or hospital-employed physicians. Hospitals employ over 270,000 doctors, which is a lot of system self-referral! The Stark laws didn't end physician self-referral; they just moved it to the hospital system! @DrOzCMS @HeathVeuleman @DutchRojas @HEALTHCOSTtruth @mass_marion @KatyTalento

@RepWalle Come Armando. You know it has nothing to do with skin color it is all about political leanings. D’s want more D districts- period. You don’t care if the skin color is white, black brown or even green.

@SenWarren How idiotic. Virtually all of it is being paid by private donations.

Right now, I'm BLOCKING a Republican bill to build Donald Trump's ballroom. Instead of rubber-stamping Trump’s gold-encrusted ballroom, Congress must lower costs for American families. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@BarackObama Mr President, respectfully, gerrymandering in today’s world has nothing to do with race. It ONLY has to do with political affiliation. Both D’s and R’s don’t care about the color of one’s skin, they only care about how they are likely to vote.

Barack Obama
Barack Obama@BarackObama·
Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach. The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

He did it politely and diplomatically but King Charles just reminded Congress: • NATO was there for USA after 9/11 • British Troops did fight in Afghanistan • Ukraine needs our help now • executive power must be subject to checks & balances • ice-caps are melting • America’s natural wonders need protecting

Who else misses the boring, no-drama days of @JoeBiden? No chaos. No circus. No daily embarrassment. Just quiet competence from a president who actually knew how to do the job.

Those who make violent threats must be prosecuted, and those who make light of last night’s attempted massacre need to lose their jobs and be ostracized from civilized society. You can’t have a marketplace of ideas or anything else when bandits keep shooting up the marketplace.

Those who make light of last night should lose their jobs. Nice. Maybe if this administration didn’t conduct itself so ridiculously and their immediate thought is build the ballroom! Maybe we wouldn’t make light of it. Maybe we wouldn’t speculate that it was a set up. But no - just like Erika Kirk’s fakeness we shouldn’t question anything. Just go along with it and if you don’t, lose your job.

A new poll has us leading Abbott by 19 points with Latino voters! Texans are sick and tired of Greg Abbott’s corruption. We’re ready for change and Latinos are ready in a big way.

“We have literally like a million people who were born here but live in China who could run for president." - @mzhemingway Mollie attended an an oral arguement on birthright citizenship and says some justices are now weighing whether the 14th Amendment was ever intended to apply the way it’s commonly understood today. Here’s what she says is really at stake:

Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey@RelatablewABS·
.@RonforTexas, Allie’s dad, came on Relatable to share everything you need to know about the Virginia redistricting vote: "They're telling you that it's temporary. So what they want to do is make it so that 90%, actually 91% of the congressional districts, are Democrat and 9%, which would be one, are Republican. Now, think about that. Kamala Harris only won Virginia with 52% of the vote, yet they want to have a 90% congressional delegation. That just doesn't add up. There's nothing fair about that redistricting. The reason they say it's temporary is because they say, 'Well, we're going to just put this in now. And then after the census in 2031, we're going to redistrict again as we normally do. So this is really going to allow us to cheat for just a couple of terms.' is what they're saying if you want to read between the lines on that.”

Can someone clarify the rules? Tony Gonzales slept with staffers and was forced to resign. Ken Paxton slept with other Senator's staffers and is a hero? Is this is correct model of conservatism? #txlege
