“Eggs and cheese is not gonna get you any Latino voters.” Said by a panel of non-Texans/non-Latinos who don’t realize that potato, egg & cheese is the QUINTESSENTIAL breakfast taco order in Texas. I am BEGGING CNN/national media to reach out to local Latino reporters even once.
CNN This Morning with Audie Cornish@CNNThisMorning

Texas politics, but make it tacos: James Talarico’s potato, egg and cheese order sparked a full-on online debate. Our panel reacts. @errollouis @JeanetteNJ @MaxRose4NY #Texas #Politics #talarico #campaign #obama

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…

Alex Haley grew up in Tennessee. He traced his family tree back to his original enslaved, African ancestor, then wrote 'Roots'. He received a Pulitzer Prize for it. Knoxville just banned it 'cause it might make white kids sad.

Remember when I said that coming for public education would be the Texas GOP’s fatal mistake? Well look what we have here… The Talarico for Texas - Cypress chapter was started by a group of high school seniors who got involved in politics when the looney toons former school board removed science chapters from their textbooks. 6 students. Changing their community. FROM. THE. GROUND. UP. ✊🏻

“The most common profession has been teachers.” When I tell you that forcing vouchers on the home of Friday night lights will be remembered as the GOP’s fatal mistake in Texas, I MEAN IT. I’ve never seen people so energized and motivated to get rid of EVERYONE involved in that scam.

NYT confirms — with new details: Last year, Navy SEALs used two boats to escort Kash Patel and nine others on what a Pentagon email called a 'VIP Snorkel' next to one of the military's most sacred sites, the underwater tomb of the U.S.S. Arizona. One Navy vet called the swim "horrifying." nytimes.com/2026/05/15/us/…

FIFA painted over a beautiful, long-standing mural in Downtown Dallas. It was gifted to the city by marine life artist & conservationist Wyland in the 90s as a reminder to protect our beloved oceans. What an unnecessary loss, especially given no matches are actually in Dallas.

The smear campaign against Joe Panzarella and CAIR is wildly Islamophobic. The ringleader of it is a Republican. I better not see any local Democrats countenancing this bigotry.

So while Nick Hellyar was on here trying to say that we can’t trust Joe Panzarella because of one protest vote in a 2016 Republican primary… he hired a sitting right wing city councilmember to join his real estate group. I would like everyone to stop playing in our faces.

@gratifihouston 💯 every year there are multiple candidates who don't live in the district they run for (or even the city) including at least one current council member.

Clearly directed at Hellyar who doesn't actually live in District C. This happened in the last election as well. Way overdue for City Council to address this. This will happen again in the 2027 election. houstonchronicle.com/politics/houst…
