Absolutely invest in @propublica & @theintercept & @TexasTribune & all the places doing the hard and expensive business of reporting

Hamilton Nolan@hamiltonnolan

One thing I would love to communicate to rich progressive donors is you have to fund ACTUAL JOURNALISM. All the progressive "content creators" rely on actual journalism done by journalists who are all getting laid off. Please fund journalism not just "our own kind of propaganda."

NEW: The Supreme Court has summarily reversed the 3-judge trial court's decision striking down Texas' mid-decade congressional map (the court had previously stayed the decision). The three liberal justices dissent. #txlege

At the @KUT Festival on May 2, I'll separately interview @RepCasar @RepMcCaul about their work in Congress, the state of our country and the world, and the 2026 election cycle. So little to talk about 🤷‍♂️. Tix here: cvent.utexas.edu/event/kutfest2… #txlege
