Houston’s “civility ordinance” against sitting or sleeping on sidewalks comes under more scrutiny for its treatment of the homeless. One woman got more than 780 tickets, adding up to nearly $200,000 in fines, from 2016 thru 2025. Are we just kicking people around more than helping them?

Intro to Gerrymandering: What is redistricting and why is it almost always rife with corruption? This video from @washingtonpost shows how parties try to shape legislatures by drawing districts that can dilute minority power as well as overrepresent a slim majority. #TxLege

When law enforcement agents act like thugs, criminals will act like law enforcement. Two men impersonating officers in masks, vests & fake badges killed during a Houston home invasion. How long until someone kills a real agent? Or an agent kills an innocent civilian defending themself? Who is who?

The US moon landing demonstrated our technologically standing as a nation. But in recent years that exceptionalism has done little to advance our civic standing. Thus @Astros4America is launching a recommitment to science, evidence-based decision-making, public service, & the rule of law.
We love @glaucomflecken.bsky.social videos, but a great mashup with UHouston alum Sen. Elizabeth Warren is an extra treat. Together they hilariously introduce the Break Up Big Medicine Act.

Targeting Renee Good's widow with an investigation so obscene 6 prosecutors resigned. Breaking into the back yard of a college student who spoke out against her illegal deportation. The Trump administration tries to silence anyone who speaks out. We won't have it.
#Berlin stolpert gefühlt von einer Affäre in die nächste und #Wegner wirkt einfach komplett überfordert. Tennis während des Stromausfalls, peinliche Außendarstellung, Rücktritte im direkten Umfeld. Man muss sich wirklich fragen, ob #Wegner der inkompetenteste Bürgermeister Deutschlands ist.
