[2/2] Editorial Board writes what many in our community see: “Austin is not safer because [hard working high school senior] Luis Fernando Cabrera is in ICE detention.”

[1/2] Texas facilities have held nearly 18,000 ICE detainees in April--more than twice any other state. Over 70% of people in detention have no criminal record. Trump and Abbott are tearing students, parents, and workers from Austin.
[2/2] We discussed our continued determination to address the climate crisis, despite opposition by the Trump regime and far-right Europeans.
[1/2] Led productive discussion between our Sustainable Energy & Environment Coalition (SEEC) and Green Party European Parliamentarians @annacavazzini.bsky.social & Sergey Lagodinsky, & consultant Dr. Basile Chartier.
Trump’s art of the deal: last Tuesday, departing to China, describing his top priority for the summit: “more than anything else will be trade.” As he returned, “We didn't discuss tariffs. It wasn't brought up.” Probably Xi is getting a good laugh.
Freedom for the people of Taiwan, freedom from the oppression the PRC has brutally imposed on Hong Kong should never be a “negotiating chip.“
Despite the Trump regime's attempts to distract and confuse people, it awarded a $1.7 billion contract border wall construction in the Big Bend area. Congressional Republicans still silent on this wasteful, harmful plan. Protect Big Bend, stop the wall.
After putting on a small spectacle, appealing to Trump‘s gigantic ego, China is rolling out the red carpet this week for war criminal Vladimir Putin. Trump apparently came back empty-handed from Beijing. Let’s hope Putin does the same.
Hate breeds violence and today that meant death in San Diego. Hate of Muslims is every bit as despicable as hate of Jews or any other minority.
Yet Texas Republican politicians have been fanning that hate daily with phony sharia tales just as so many have scapegoated minorities for social ills.
[2/2] Our Founders rejected kings. Trump is trying to act like one.
Together with colleagues, I have urged the court to reject this outrageous, unconstitutional scheme of Trump settling with himself.
[1/2] To mark America’s 250th anniversary, Donald Trump is shredding the Constitution—suing his own administration and then “settling” for a $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund he alone controls and who knows what else not yet disclosed.
[2/2] With Xi having brutally squashed freedom in Hong Kong, Trump wrongly refers to Taiwan as a “negotiating chip.” Our values and security demand permitting Taiwan access to weapons for its self-defense.
[1/2] With Trump weakening America, unsurprising that Xi thinks China is the dominant power. Trump apparently achieved nothing at this summit other than self-glorification and a visit with an authoritarian he admires.
Trump's bypass of Congress for his illegal war with Iran is the latest catalyst for the erosion of American democracy.
Tracking his second term through 12 historical benchmarks, the NYT Editorial Board offers a chilling map of America's descent toward autocracy.
[2/2] Important nominations for Attorney General in both parties and a number of other key positions being decided today in the Primary Runoff election.
With low turnout, your vote counts for even more than usual. Vote at locations throughout the area until 7pm tonight.
[1/2] Early voting begins today for the Texas primary runoff election at locations throughout Travis County through this Friday. Vote now to make your voice heard on important statewide and Austin area races.
And plan to post early next Tuesday 5/25, which is Election Day.
Trump promised to go after the criminals, but it’s a get-out-of-jail free card if you’re a billionaire. This time, an Indian billionaire charged with bribery and defrauding American investors set to walk free.
Jho Low —one of the world’s most infamous fraudsters who stole $4.5B— is seeking a pardon from the only person, who would consider giving him one: Donald J Trump.
As Americans struggle with rising prices, every fraudster with a big pocket book knows where to apply for relief from wrongdoing.
Meeting with able advocates for the greater Austin Asian Chamber to discuss the harm of Trump regime policies for small businesses: President and CEO Mark Duval as well as board members Wan Kim, Minh Tran and Ahmed Moledina.
Proud of Libby and our daughter Lisa for 150+ miles of cycling in MS150 with the Tacodeli team. More support to address Multiple Sclerosis, which impacts thousands of Americans.
Thanks to Kitty Bird who professionally photographed the Austin start.
