Show of hands ✋🏽 who stands with Joy Reid?
Chairman needs to feel🔥🔥🔥everywhere he goes. Texas Republicans don’t get out enough in OPEN PUBLIC TOWN HALLS — they stay behind gated communities in curated, invitation-only events with PEOPLE WHO THINK JUST LIKE THEM. Do they ever even visit Texas public schools? #txlege
Tough room: Texas House Public Education Chairman @BradBuckleyDVM was booed this morning during a State PTA event. He was met with "We do not want vouchers in Texas!" and "Fully fund our schools!" #txlege
Today’s Houston Democracy Project Blog post asks what is best way for Democratic members of the Texas Legislature to use time & efforts? Elected officials have an obligation to keep constituents safe & heal divisions between core supporters. #Houston neilaquino.com/houston-democr…
I will always call them King Trump & King Musk. They want to rule as kings outside of our Constitution.
Today’s Houston Democracy Project Blog post asks if future Veterans Day ceremonies will honor service in mass deportations & civil liberties violations of American citizens. #Houston neilaquino.com/houston-democr…
Today’s Houston Democracy Project Blog post says this time there will not be pink hats & Hillbilly Elegy. We’ll fight as required & demand Houston/Harris County elected Democrats who exist off us to fully join the fight. #Houston neilaquino.com/houston-democr…
This. We will not be able to get accurate information.
Dear outside world: please accurately document our history over the next 4 years, because it will not be accurately documented from within.
“Good-bye to my Juan. Good-bye Rosalita. Adios mis amigos, Jesus y Maria. You won’t have a name when you ride the big airplane. All they will call you will be Deportees.”—Woody Guthrie, “Deportee (Plane Wreck at Los Gatos).”(1948).
To everyone who is afraid of what happens next, I share your fears. But what we do next is important. We have to learn from what happened. And then, make a plan. As we confront a second Trump presidency, here’s a path forward: 🧵
A note to Dem politicians and campaigns: You won't persuade voters with a one-off appearance on a popular podcast the week before the election (which is not a knock on Harris' campaign; she only had a couple months so they did all they could). The reason Republicans are winning…
Democrats didn’t run on this Republicans ran AGAINST Democrats on this Important distinction
“It turns out, running on these extraordinarily niche issues like gender fluidity or defunding the police don't actually matter—or frankly, feel profoundly out of touch—to ordinary Americans.” @BariWeiss on why Democrats lost so badly.
Lake was an awful candidate, but Democrats owe a lot to Gallego He jumped in early, cast Sinema as a DC elitist and himself as a hard working Arizona man, and then seamlessly pivoted to the election vs Lake. One of the best Dem campaigns this year
So, Arizona is on pace to: - Protect abortion - Criminalize immigrants - Reject Kari Lake - Elect Donald Trump Absolutely schizophrenic state
They ran a misogynistic campaign bc they are misogynists but what’s ironic is that they likely could’ve won without it. They just crave cruelty.
Call me a lib or whatever but it's easy to see that Harris lost in large part due to a chest-thumping, gaudy, misogynist campaign by Trump/Vance - from Elon's PAC calling her the "c-word" in ads to "childless cat ladies." I hadn't grasped how deeply the US hates women until now.
In 2020, Democrats rejected Sanders and Warren and united behind Biden, the most popular moderate candidate in the primary. Republicans like John Kasich got more speaking time at the Democratic convention than AOC. Bizarre to see these choices recast as a pivot to the left!…
2016: tacked right, appealed to “reasonable” Republicans, lost. 2020: tacked left, brought progressive populists in, won. 2024: tacked right, appealed to “reasonable” Republicans, lost. 2028: ?
Hey, no one listens to me, but people listen to Brian. Been preaching it for years. Invest $$$ in creating a robust left-wing media ecosystem to battle the right-wing. There's a reason why Bannon said the media is the enemy and not the Democrats.
Republicans have a rightwing media ecosystem that repeats GOP talking points over and over, ad nauseam, until they’re seared into your cerebral cortexes. Not only is there no equivalent on the left, but plenty of D politicians still refuse to bolster independent progressive…
Don't spread conspiracy theories. No one cheated. That's not what happened. I understand why people would prefer to believe someone stole the election than that so many people don't care if the rest of us live, die, or become political prisoners. But that's not what happened.
"and NOW a warning?"
As Donald Trump readies to return to the Oval Office, U.S. retailers that depend on foreign suppliers are prepared to pass along the cost of his proposed import tariffs to consumers, potentially leading to higher prices for a range of products. cbsn.ws/48Lnwcc
LETS GET SOMETHING STRAIGHT. The American People voted to absolutely make sure LOADS of people would die at Trumps hands. - Their daughters, their wives, children & their fellow citizens will die from school shootings, pregnancy & easily cured diseases. -It’s free hunting…
Today’s Houston Democracy Project Blog post offers some first Houston/Harris County observations after yesterday’s election. I’m staying the course with my work as we continue to fight. #Houston neilaquino.com/houston-democr…
