In a major Texas Senate race endorsement, Hall of Fame former Texas Ranger David Maxwell spoke out against Ken Paxton. After blowing the whistle on Paxton's corruption in 2020 and being fired, Maxwell is endorsing James Talarico for US Senate. "Texans deserve a Senator who serves the people."

I think they did this on purpose so they have an excuse for the inevitability shitty ratings and attendance. Fox is broadcasting live from this catastrophe and I’m sure they remember the freedom fair embarrassment.

Vote early. Election Day is the end of the election, not the beginning. With everything this regime is going to do to suppress our votes, it’s imperative that we leave plenty of time to correct any issues.
🚨 OCTOBER 17 — NO KINGS: VOTE EARLY!
With our democracy at stake, we're showing up again to promote unprecedented voter participation in the midterms.
Our goal is to translate the historic protest power of No Kings mobilizations into a massive wave of voter turnout.

Gloria Steinem's essays, organizing, and institutions like Ms. magazine reshaped American life for women. She understood that progress would provoke resistance, because, as she so eloquently put it...
