@realDonaldTrump You arrogant, silver-spooned clown. It wasn’t you. It was never “guys like you.” It was the deaf laborers hammering steel until their ears bled, the Black slaves whose blood, sweat, and broken bodies literally built the foundations of this nation’s wealth while your ancestors were probably counting their inherited coins. It was the indentured servants treated like disposable dogs, the starving Irish fleeing famine only to dig your canals and lay your railroads, the Chinese workers blasted apart building the transcontinental line for pennies and contempt, the Italians, Germans, Jews, Scots, and English tradesmen pouring their muscle and skill into factories, mines, and shipyards. It was the pioneers and farmers who broke the prairie with their bare hands, buried their children in frozen ground, and fed this country through droughts, blizzards, and plagues. The fishermen risking their lives on wooden boats so your kind could eat lobster in Manhattan. The common men and women—the “complainers,” as you sneer—who actually did the work while robber barons and dandy boys with daddy’s money sat back, exploited them, and took all the credit. You and your fellow trust-fund grifters couldn’t build a goddamn birdhouse without hiring real people to do it for you. You inherited wealth, stiffed workers, filed bankruptcies, and played golf while calling yourself a builder. Without those “ingrates” you love to shit on—the ones who actually sweat, bleed, and die for this country—you’d be nothing. A loudmouth real estate heir with a big mouth and zero calluses. The complainers? Many of them are the descendants of the people who made America possible while your crowd was busy hoarding it. They have every right to complain when pampered elites like you lecture them about “building” from your golden tower. This country was built from the bottom up by the forgotten, the immigrant, the laborer, the slave, the farmer—not by blowhard billionaires who think slapping their name on a building makes them Paul Bunyan. Sit down, Donny. The real builders are still carrying this nation on their backs, and they see right through your nonsense.

.@jamestalarico: There's been a lot of talk in this race about what it means to be a real man. Recently on the campaign trail I told the story of my adoptive dad, Mark Talarico. Every Saturday morning, he would mow our lawn, and then without anyone asking him to, he would go

Since taking office, Ken Paxton has become a multi-millionaire while our pay has stagnated. He owns 11 homes while most Texans can’t afford one. He trades favors with rich donors while blocking overtime pay for workers. Paxton doesn’t serve us — he serves himself.

As a veteran, I hate that this man "salutes" during the anthem. 1. Generally speaking even Active Duty and Veterans don't salute in civies. You CAN, but most people just put their hands over their hearts. 2. He's not a veteran or active duty. POTUS is a civilian's office. 3. He's a fucking draft dodger. That's some stolen valor bullshit. You haven't earned that right, you fucking fuck. 4. If you're going to insist on being a valor thief, at least learn to salute properly instead of that lazy-ass, floppy-wristed, palm-out bullshit.

Ken Paxton’s own lawyer just endorsed our campaign for the US Senate. We’re building a big tent to take on this corrupt system that Ken Paxton embodies.

BREAKING: Ken Paxton’s own lawyer just endorsed James Talarico: “I defended Ken Paxton for years in the impeachment trial and in state criminal cases. But in my view, I think Ken has lost sight of his core mission, which is to represent the people of Texas. And unlike Ken, I
