Saddened to learn that this morning Susan Dawson lost her long struggle with cancer.
Decades ago, I met Susan as a successful young entrepreneur in Austin’s emerging tech sector.

[2/2] What a remarkable display of indifference to Christians seeking refuge from persecution and another example of how Trump's anti-immigrant agenda overrides even the most basic humanitarian concerns.
www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
[1/2] Earlier this year, Trump urged Iranians to stand up to their government. Now, reports indicate his Administration is allegedly turning over information on Iranian Christians seeking asylum in the United States to the very regime they fled.
www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
[2/2] The chief executive of Community Health Systems noted “As gas prices go up, that has a pretty significant impact on disposable income for those households, and health care seems to be one of the first things that people will delay or at least attempt to delay if they can.”
[1/2] Trading Obamacare for Trump Nothingcare only costs taxpayers more as families lose access to preventative health care and seek more expensive emergency care at hospitals. Trump’s tariff taxes and reckless wars add to the burden.
Like tyrants everywhere, Trump remains intent on censoring every news media that does not praise him. America without an independent press is America without democracy.
[2/2] Trump’s phony Board of Peace deal was rejected by Israel’s National Security Minister as “not acceptable” while insisting that “targeted killings in Gaza must continue.”
[1/2] Another misleading claim to distract from his failures in the foolish Iranian war— just the latest broken promise of relief for Palestinians.
[2/2] We must stop this incredible waste of both taxpayer money and an invaluable place of spectacular beauty.

[1/2] With Trump reportedly preparing to begin construction at Big Bend’s Mariscal Mountain, I led Texas Democratic members and other concerned colleagues in urging delay to potentially irreparable destruction.

[2/2] The CDC team responsible for responding to outbreaks like this has been left understaffed and underfunded following Trump's destruction of USAID. Once again, it's the American people who pay the price for Trump's recklessness.
www.msn.com/en-us/health...
[1/2] As a parasitic outbreak harms many and threatens many more of us across our country, Trump once again shares responsibility.
www.msn.com/en-us/health...
Meanwhile, Blanche negotiated at least $1 million settlement for a convicted criminal Trump previously pardoned for his conspiracy to prevent access to an abortion clinic. Hardly the only example of Blanche’s prosecutorial abuse and Trump’s disregard for courts.
Todd Blanche, Trump‘s recent criminal defense attorney and nominee for Attorney General, declared death of the $1.8 billion slush fund created through his collusion.
[2/2] Now that Iran is apparently retaliating with cyberattacks on water systems in multiple states, Trump has the perfect answer: “I think Minnesota is behind it.“ Blame the victims, not his reckless war, which is making families less safe while they are forced to pay more for most everything.
[1/2] Before launching his foolish assault on Iran, Trump was advised that the Strait of Hormuz could be closed and America could be hit by cyber attacks.
The only thing Trump wants America to remember is himself. Like other authoritarians, Trump is working to erase our Nation’s history and replace cultural icons with gaudy, self-adulating monuments.
[2/2] What was an aberration then has now become too regular. 274 mass shootings this year alone. Despite unrelenting GOP opposition, we must keep both gun safety legislation and more support for mental health on the public agenda.

[1/2] 60 years ago, I watched the UT Tower — a symbol of pride became a source of tragedy. So many lives lost or disrupted. Walking on campus then, I could have been one of them. We saw great acts of courage by fellow students & police.
spectrumlocalnews.com/tx/austin/ne...
The rose-colored glasses are slipping off as Trump supporters realize he has broken all of his promises to lower prices and end forever wars.
