As I finished my caldo de res, the owner of the Mexican cafe came over to splash holy water on me, prayed over me, and gave me her bendición; that meant so much to me. Even more when she calls you “mijo”. Real ones know. She did say I needed to wash out my mouth w/ soup.

Vouchers not about parental freedom because ISDs have choice schools. Vouchers not about helping low income students bcz we’ve been underfunding schools for years. Vouchers are about subsidizing high income folks who already send their kids to private schools.

The Texas Historical Commission removed books on slavery from plantation gift shops. An agency spokesperson claimed that the move had nothing to do with politics.
Internal emails show otherwise.

How hard is it to wear a mask? I hate it too. It is suffocating in this Houston heat.
But it is the love we have for each other & our children that we should insist on schools requiring masks. By definition we’d be protecting the sanctity of life. The life our kids have now.

Y’all remember when Trump said we were going to build a wall and Mexico would pay for it?
Not only is Mexico not paying for the wall, Texas taxpayers are. $1.6B appropriated and another $1.5B proposed. 11-12 miles have been built so far. $20-$30M per mile.
