The Police Timeline of the Texas School Shooting Has a Lot of Holes | via @VICENews h/t @ItsKey_70sbaby #PunIntended #GunReformNow #WhenGoodGuysWithGunsGoWrong vice.com/en/article/pkp…
“Investigators ‘still grabbing’ information about Texas school shooting as families search for answers” #Uvalde #DemandReform #DemandTheTruth #DemandJustice twitter.com/i/events/15291…
“They create the conditions they lament then refuse all the viable remedies.” They put shit tons of assault weapons on the streets to justify further militarization of America’s police force, which still hasn’t demonstrated competence or capability of neutralizing mass shooters. Image

Good morning! Anything big happen yesterday? lol

Ok here are some thoughts from Texas...

#txlege #tx2020 #txdem #txsen #turntexasblue #progresstexas @ProgressTX
Biden got 5.2 million votes in Texas, which adds 1.3 mil from 2016. The last three presidential margins here:

2012 = 12 points
2016 = 9 points
2020 = 6 points

The revolution will not happen overnight, but it will happen over time.
Biden carried Texas urban counties 2.5 mil to 1.5 mil (was 1.95mil to 1.23mil in 2016).

Dems are also neutralizing the suburban stronghold Republicans enjoyed for years; 2.6 million votes were cast and R's lead by 14k overall (they led with 200k in 2012).

This man may be the #TrumpTerrorist who hit the Biden staffer's vehicle.

Not at all surprised he hangs out with @DanCrenshawTX.

He's also the man who drove through a crowd in San Antonio in September. He said then he "didn't mean to hurt anybody."

I am happy to share today my latest updated #Texas #Resister list, as part of my effort to highlight #TexasResisters, to do my part to try to help #TurnTexasBlue as we come down the home stretch of the 2020 election. As with previous versions, this list has 3 parts.
The 3rd group are those included in my previous #TexasResister lists. The 2nd group are those new followers I’ve added since last month. I’ve separated it this way to help those who’ve seen my previous posts focus on the 2nd group for new followers.
As I’ve done previously, my first few posts will highlight Texas Democrats running for key offices, including Texas national and state congressional races.
Early voting has begun, with record turnout. Let’s keep it up through November 3!

Lest we forget. In #TX14, we have a useless KKK denier as our Congressman. But we see him. We need help to rid ourselves of his ilk.

Please consider your support for our future.
Vote @AdrBell for #T14 sake.

If Texas Democrats flip the state legislature this November, that means Republicans don’t get to draw gerrymandered maps like this anymore. #TurnTexasBlue
The reason #TX35 was drawn this way was to pack as many people of color, young & progressive voters into one district as possible to dilute their votes so the GOP wins more Congressional seats. Multiple courts deemed it discriminatory & unconstitutional. But SCOTUS upheld it. 😡
Here's another beauty -- Dan Crenshaw’s district. Often described as Bart Simpson taking a dump.

People crapping on @BetoORourke for not beating Cruz in 2018 need to Google what "Pyrrhic Victory" means.

Beto's work helped @texasdemocrats crush the GOP in every major county in the state.

There are ZERO county-wide elected R's in the largest county in the state (Harris).
Just for perspective - 6 years apart:

2012 - Presidential - Cruz by 16
2018 - Midterm - Cruz by 2.5

Laugh & gloat all you want... @texasdemocrats are comin' for ya.
Texas Legislature - House Democrats gained...

12 freaking seats... in a MIDTERM election in a DEEP RED STATE.

About a half dozen Rs scraped by less than a point.

One won by 47 votes...

PSA to the Beto should run for Senate folks: You're not helping us here in TX. If you're concern trolling, just own it. If you think you're helping, stop. Beto isn't running for Senate in 2020. If he did, it would be counterproductive. Cornyn would attack him for running for Pres
We put in a lot of work to make this state winnable again. Beto put in a lot of work to make this state winnable again. But just anybody won't win it. The Dem running for Gov lost by 13%. It's still an uphill battle, so stop making it harder on us.
When you say Beto should drop out and run for Senate, you imply that our current candidates are weak and can't win. You diminish the people who are trying to flip this state. Work with us, not against us. If you truly care about flipping TX, drop that narrative.
