So allegedly the #Texas #Legislature intends to #gerrymander the p*ss out of #houston #dallas #austin and #SanAntonio so the residents of those #urban areas cannot elect as many #Democrats to #Congress Zoom in on #map to see street view and how tortured proposed new #districts in those areas look. You can also click on district number to see #statistics of how many people of each #race are in each district. For whites, they use the term "Anglo."

On June 5, Representatives Delia Ramirez, Sara Jacobs, Pramila Jayapal, and Mark Pocan, along with 18 colleagues, publicly announced the introduction of a historic bill in Congress to do just that.

It’s extremely important that Members of Congress hear from their constituents right now that they oppose giving more weapons to Israel! Write your Representative and ask them to cosponsor H.R.3565, the Block the Bombs Act.

actionnetwork.orgBlock the Bombs to Israel!Join me in asking your Member of Congress to support H.R.3565, the Block the Bombs Act. This bill would prevent the Trump administration from delivering weapons to Israel to inflict genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

“A record number of #Senate #Democrats, more than 1/2 the caucus, voted in favor of 2 resolutions to block #US #militarysales to #Israel... While the resolutions ultimately failed, the vote demonstrated how Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu has fractured historically bipartisan support in Congress over the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip... The resolutions, sponsored by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt), failed…all Republicans voting against…& 20 Democrats.” thehill.com/policy/defense/542

Hey everyone! I was unable to fulfill the most basic function of my extremely easy job, but it's important that you know I would have maybe done something right.

To be clear: I didn't do something right, but I am speculating that I might have. You're welcome!

I'm halfway through and interviews with #BillBurr on #GoodOne, and he's really emotionally invested in a #BothSides analysis of American politics--reasonable people on both sides, the right and left are equally to blame--but he's referring to the #Democrats as the left, and he's launching standard and *accurate* leftist critiques: billionaires who don't pay employees enough to go to the dentist should be taxed more, the Democrats should be democratic, etc.
