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.
Trump once said tax dodging is a sport. Now that he controls the referees, he wants to end the game. He’s pushing to shut down audits into years he paid little or no taxes—while demanding $10 billion from taxpayers for the release of tax returns he should have voluntarily made public. Outrageous.
When he’s not sleeping on the job or starting illegal wars, Trump keeps busy by recklessly spending billions of taxpayer dollars in unnecessary petty projects. He’s got no real interest in helping the millions of Americans struggling to afford gas, food, and healthcare– only himself.
Under Trump, it’s ‘land of the free’ only for the fraudsters and other criminal cronies. For hardworking, innocent Americans, he increases prices and works overtime to strip hard-won rights like the right to vote.
A harrowing essay from Zain Habboo, who shares her late son's battle with cancer and reflects on Trump's cuts to pediatric cancer research. “We should strive to spare other parents this pain, and we can. It’s not too late to restore funding to cancer research and save thousands of children’s lives.”
While Trump promised to bring high prices down on Day One, inflation just hit a new high.
As Trump's own personal wealth has soared by over a billion dollars in a year, his tariff taxes and reckless war in Iran have driven high prices even higher, forcing families to make do with less.
Another Trump tariff tax failure! After a ruling that his most recent tariffs are illegal, he is demanding to keep collecting those taxes anyway.
Instead, the focus should be on refunding taxes that should never have been taken and which only spiked prices for our families.
"I don't think about Americans' financial situation." From the horse's mouth, King Trump yesterday made clear he has more important priorities—a ballroom, more ways to enrich his family, how to put his name on more things.
