It is sad to see Texas going backward in diversity. Less than 5% of the students are black. Asher Price’s book “Earl Campbell: Yards After Contact”is an excellent read on the decades of racial discrimination at UT.

@JimGBoyle It sounds like the kinds of private schools the Christian Nationalist leaders of TX are promoting by vouchers might as well be called madrasas. Among the Abbotts and Patricks and Paxtons and their Taliban-adjacent donors, there is no separation of church and state.
To quote Chris Walllace in @dallasnews today, “school vouchers are bad for business, bad for our communities, & bad for the future workforce in TX” - I agree! @GregAbbott_TX & @DanPatrick don’t care about TX public schools or teachers.
.@tedcruz says he believes voucher programs that let parents take their kids out of public schools and enroll them into private ones using taxpayers' money, often referred to as "school choice," are the "civil rights issue of the 21st century." #TribFest23
I am with Heather Sheffield and Randy Willis at Trib Fest. @jamestalarico did a great job explaining why vouchers are an “existential threat” to public ed. Let’s fight! @TXParentPAC @tars_tarsed #tribfest23
Look at this picture. @GovAbbott surrounded by 95% MEN. Women are 51% of Majority/Minority Texas. But the chokehold of 28 years of Republican control due to gerrymandered districts, voter-suppression laws, actual vote-purges produces this image. November 2024 is coming, Ladies!🗳️
@cltomlinson Thank you! I hope you are speaking with Beth Garza, who was the Independent Market Monitor of ERCOT for many years. She will give you the most honest and informed analysis you’ll get.
This is precisely why Dan Patrick wanted to abolish tenure. He can't abide dissent, and tenure protects dissent. The irony of this whole episode is that now faculty are openly discussing unionization.
Congratulations Folakemi Fregene! You’re amazing!

GOP Texas Governor celebrates BASTILLE DAY in Paris, France on taxpayer’s dime while funding for public education is in peril, 50yo neglected electric grid is hobbling, 1 in 5 TX kids live HUNGRY, 38% TX resident renters see no property tax relief, and GUN VIOLENCE rages. #txlege
Our Bastille Day celebration continued with a dinner honoring Prime Minister @narendramodi. Great to visit with Prime Minister Modi and President @EmmanuelMacron at the Louvre. France and India will always have a friend in Texas.
OPTION 2 IS A VOTE FOR PUTIN AND CONTINUED RUSSIAN BARBARISM. HOW NAIVE CAN AMERICAN PROGRESSIVES BE? Leftist types should study Moscow's useful fools. They are Trump's best hope.
Leftists have two choices this election: 1) Give your votes away to the Democrats who stab us in the back and sell us out to their corporate donors. 2) Vote for Cornel West & help build an independent working class movement to challenge the corporate duopoly.
After WWII, America, while still far from perfect, was trying to be more progressive. This is Sinatra in a short film from 1945. It’s a message we should remember as a religion is attemtpting to impose their view on all.
no majority in the house. no subpoenas. work on the elections and quit enabling minor backbenchers fantasies.
Oh shit. AOC just said on CNN that “If Chief Justice Roberts will not come before Congress for an investigation voluntarily, I believe that we should be considering subpoenas.” Exactly. Time for Democrats to off the gloves. This is the time to play hardball.

I’m 🤔 about doing a fun Garrison Keillor Lake Wobegon-like podcast based on Gov Abbott’s fictional Hambriston—and #txlege neglect of rural TX… “…and that’s the news from Hambriston, where the people are strong, the hospital is gone, and the school deficit is above average.”
