Sons of Zapata
Farm Workers Strike, Starr County Texas. 1960s
Cesar Chavez is on the news, 33 years after he died allegations come forward
Yes, Chavez and many others called them Wetbacks, so what? The people she is referring to are worse; not only are they mojados, but they are also scabs.
Not that there isn’t a lot of news; it is overwhelming, in fact.
I read that One Battle after Another won Best Picture. I have started watching that movie four times, and it still remains unfinished. I am around 30 minutes into the movie. I don’t know, maybe it is a white thing, or a young thing, but it is certainly not my thing.
Los pendejos Progressives may be opening their eyes and realizing that they need a big tent in Texas to win.
One of the most important lessons I learned there was that white people were not smarter than people like me. They just pushed that falsehood to keep us in our place and convince themselves that it was true. Look no further than the white DEI hires in the White House.
My conspiracy theory for the weekend
Look at who benefits when Trump does what everyone thinks is stupid. Trump has nothing to lose; he has three more years, thanks to the corrupt Supreme Court, and he has almost complete immunity as president.
John Whitmire claims new policy for when HPD calls ICE
Abbie Kamin -“I think pitting people against one another and saying that it’s just people out to get me is paranoid and does a disservice to the people of the most diverse city in the country.”
Houston Mayor Whitmire made it official they will call ICE if a name similiar to yours is on the warrant list from ICE
If HPD seems to think that the immigrant community is ignorant of what they are doing, they are sorely mistaken. Whitmire and his policy have made Houston much more dangerous for us. People who would normally call in crimes will not do so, especially if their freedom is at risk or the risk of being separated from their families here.
Corpus Christi, Texas on the verge of running out of water – Abbott lied about giving money
Based on what I found online, Governor Abbott lied, but lying comes easily to MAGAs. It was a loan.
Houston Chronicle recommends to vote for the Republican, if
So, in November, when the election comes around, if you want to do what is right, vote straight party ticket for the Democrats, including those like the judge that they wrote about.
Mexico’s response to Trump bombing cartels,
Mexico’s leader suggested Washington should focus on other steps: Containing the voracious American appetite for illicit drugs, and combating illegal arms trafficking.
Trump will declare victory this week and the war will cease.
Trump will claim victory and throw in the towel.
There are a lot of people wanting to believe that he will be the one to finally allow Texas to elect a United States Senator. But many people are not so sure about investing the amount of money needed to win such a contest in Texas. I personally would rather send money to the Democratic Senate running in Alaska, Mary Peltola.
Support our Hispanic Candidates in Texas – Donate to their campaigns
Support our Hispanic candidates – si se puede
Releasing criminals into the streets of America, Donald Trump and his MAGA horde of America haters.
Trump has made our streets and children less safe with his pardons, especially of pedophiles. Maybe he believes that pedophiles are good people; Trump sure hung around with Epstein.
Whitmire and HPD working closely with ICE, hPD acting as ICE agents.
I am not surprised that the Hispanic leadership here in Houston has not criticized him. Too many of them owe their political careers to him. Before running for office, almost without exception, they went to kiss the Don’s ring.
Daily Kos no better than MAGA sites, go along or we don’t want you
Should we unite behind Talarico? Probably, but personally, I would rather wait for a better candidate, preferably a Hispanic. The Republicans will have a field day with Talarico. I hope that Gina can help carry Texas for Democrats.
If Democrats want to win Texas invest big on Gina and Bobby.
In many of the photos of Gina and Bobby, you can find Talarico-like gum stuck to them. He used them because they would have done what they did regardless of whether Talarico was at the top of the ticket.
Everyone wants to be an expert as to why Talarico won Latinos, bigly
It is the name; it would not surprise me that the vast majority of Latinos thought they were voting for a Latino. When I first saw the name (Talarico), it sounded Spanish but unusual, so I looked it up, it is Italian.
Houston’s new approach on Heavy Trash Pickup – my two cents on that
Never under estimate how stupid people are or how resourceful they can be.
There were some very good spots for me last night
I don’t care for James Talarico; I see a fake man pretending to be a caring man. Would not surprise me if he turns out to be like Fetterman, looking at the next election and realizing he must be more MAGA to win the next election. But I will vote for him because, if nothing else, it takes the Senate away from the Republicans. That is very important because it could mean appointments to the Supreme Court.
