Historians are dunking on the Project 1836 Law signed by @GregAbbott_TX & fairly so. It's pure culture-wars inflaming rhetoric, a response to a virtually non-existent threat of Critical Race Theory. But if we only trash it, we're missing the good news of *opportunity.* A thread/1

To keep Texas the best state in the nation, we can never forget WHY our state is so exceptional. I signed a law establishing the 1836 project, which promotes patriotic education & ensures future generations understand TX values. Together, we'll keep our rich history alive.

The violence at the #border has deep, historical roots. While we must acknowledge past state violence, it is vital we also work with communities to build models grounded in transformative #justice in the present. Memorializing victims in not enough. @LatinostudiesUT

“The ERCOT grid has collapsed in exactly the same manner as the old Soviet Union,” said Ed Hirs, an energy fellow at the University of Houston. “It limped along on underinvestment and neglect until it finally broke under predictable circumstances." bit.ly/3qD6TZ2
