Attended the Anti-Trump, Pro-Democracy rally at the Texas State Capitol this morning. Inspiring speakers, thousands of pissed off people. Lovely...

It is your patriotic duty to listen to this speech. Every single word. An essential guide to the deep, unfathomable corruption the new Trump administration is carrying out on a daily basis.

The DNC raises ne'er a whisper of defiance toward Trump and his monkeys. I'm loathe to state how I really feel.

When you donate to The Texas Tribune, you are helping to bring news from inside the Capitol to the entire state. Your donation goes twice as far today as part of #AmplifyAustinDay! trib.it/Amplify25

Finally catching a breath after an incredible Summit. Thanks to everyone who joined us. (And especially my wife, Cecilia, and daughter, Adrienne, for putting up with my busy schedule these last few weeks! Love you guys.) I hope you all left inspired and ready to fight for our country. I know I did.

Mark my word. With no firm assurances of security, Trump and his minions will betray Ukraine as he and Putin rape their land.

THIS >> The whole system of checks & balances in our Constitution relies on each branch jealously guarding their power from encroachments by the other branches. This is why we're in a Constitutional crisis.

By 51-50, we now have a deeply compromised, unqualified, D-list Fox host running the US military at the command of a convicted felon who once hosted a reality show. Just as the Founders intended.

We need experts and expertise. We have complex systems for a complex world. We are now facing the consequences of exceedingly arrogant and cruel people making extremely stupid decisions to appease a malignant narcissist who wants quick, simple results for problems that require expertise and nuance.
