NEW from me and @jdowningsardine: Texas Senate Democratic candidate James Talarico has a "committed vegan" for a girlfriend who works as a political lobbyist for the Texas Medical Association
“James is not and never has been a vegan, much to his girlfriend’s chagrin. As the saying goes, true love conquers all,” said Talarico spokesman JT Ennis in a statement

@scottbraddock Screwed them? Unlike the speakers that screwed the Republican grassroots voters for years?
English
That resolution on speaker Burrows was apparently filed in multiple counties so it isn't just Chair Scudder.
Sounds like Democrats around Texas don't like y'all voting for a speaker who promised you a seat at the table & then screwed y'all. That's being nice about it #txlege

I’d like a Texas Democratic Party chair more focused on helping us flip seats than scolding Democratic legislators. Last legislative session was terrible, and that was mostly due to there being 88 Republicans and 62 Democrats. Change the numbers, and the leadership changes.

Crockett’s team gave a statement for this story that said there’s “still a long road ahead to November” for Texas Democrats.
Full statement:

@Create_Profit Even if it goes down at the open. Those puts are juiced with vol and will decay rapidly.

I have never used options but I want to short $DELL.
It is up 37% after the market has closed. Surely people will want to take profits tomorrow at market open.
Is this a good idea?

There’s going to be so many accidents caused by people who think they can correctly replace brakes on a modern vehicle with YouTube, AI, and $200 at AutoZone

Did my Mother-in-law's brakes this weekend, $200 in parts for Brakes and Rotors because the shop she went to quoted her $1500. In what world is a brake job $1300 in labor

@LoewyLawFirm I did. The answer was “leadership wanted it”

Go ask a Member of the Lege what exactly Paxton did to get impeached.
Don’t let the answer be “he was corrupt”
Ask for specifics.
You’d be surprised at how few can actually explain it now.

The problem with attacking Paxton on impeachment is next to no voters can actually explain what he was impeached for - it was all very opaque The POTUS also was impeached 2x and then won the popular vote, so “being impeached” just doesn’t carry the weight it once did #txlege

US–Iran headline hits 7:10am. SPY rips through every level on one 5-min candle.
Before (pre-market):
Spot 750 · pinned at flip · bearish
Put wall 750 / call wall 752
After (one hour later):
Spot 753 · neutral range
Put wall 752 / call wall 755 / flip 750
The map didn't fail. It re-formed one strike higher. Old call wall (752) is now the floor. Yesterday's resistance is today's support.
Break first. Restructure second.
Trade the new map, not the dead one. 📊
GEX Edge@GEXEdgeIO
SPY 0DTE permarket read Net GEX flips negative right at 750. Below it dealers stop cushioning and start chasing. tape leans bearish into the open. Map: Put wall 750 Gamma flip 750.84 Call wall 752 Lose 750 = air pocket. Reclaim 752 = squeeze. Don't sell premium. Debit spreads or long calls/puts Don't fade the first clean break. Levels > opinions. 📊

@LoewyLawFirm @bofrench @BudKennedy You mean the guy that quit allowing replies to his posts? That brave soul?
English
Heard from a national operative who thinks this will be become a national race bc @bofrench is so controversial
If that happens, imagine @BudKennedy making the rounds on CNN and MSNOW to explain the Bo phenomenon
Fort Worth goes national.
Buckle up.

It is objectively not winnable bc Jon Rosenthal cannot raise money and Bo French will have millions. Another pollster who is clueless on Texas. #txlege

You all still don’t get it.
Sure, Trump’s endorsement matters but this is much more than that.
The Republican voter is fed up. They keep electing majorities that do nothing.
For examples, 85% of the country wants some form of voter ID and they can’t even pass that.
And the country wants secure borders. And less crime. And less regulation. Etc. This isn’t rocket science.
You all act like Trump just sets an agenda and that’s that. And you couldn’t be more wrong.
Trump ran on an agenda that the country wants. Remove Trump and whoever advocates that same agenda will take his place.
This is where the Republican Party lost its way. Ultimately, you still must do what your voters want.
Anyone thinking that when Trump leaves office that the Republican Party of Bush, McConnell, McCain, Ryan, et al will return is completely delusional.
That you brand yourself as a pollster and political analyst and still can’t grasp this is incredible.

I said last week that the CNN segment about Talarico's taco order didn't get to the subtext of the GOP attack - that the candidate is a sissy, maybe even gay.
The subtext is rapidly becoming, uh, text x.com/daveweigel/sta…

The Democrats made history in Texas by nominating their first transgender senate candidate.

@MattMackowiak The incumbent has huge advantages in runoffs. If after two decades a sitting US Senator doesn’t have a strong GOTV effort, that is telling in more ways than you care to admit

Senator John Cornyn easily spent $130,00,000+ to get absolutely blown out in his reelection bid
One of the most humiliating losses in Texas political history.

Congratulations to @KenPaxtonTX on winning the Republican nomination for United States Senate. A steadfast conservative fighter for Texas, he has led the charge on securing the border, defending our constitutional freedoms, and advancing the conservative principles that have made Texas the strongest and most prosperous state in the nation.
With so much at stake for our state and our country, Republicans are united and ready for the fight ahead. Looking forward to supporting Ken Paxton as we work to protect the values and freedoms that make Texas exceptional.

@ChrisCillizza Get out of the beltway. I live here in Tarrant County. No way he was going to win here

@chris_komatsu Tex. Elec. Code 61.003, 85.036.
You need to read the actual law.

This is quite literally illegal to do at a voting location in Texas.

WOW! Convinced a former Cornyn supporter to vote for Ken Paxton. Being at the polls on Election Day does make a difference. 📍Collin County, TX
