"Together with freedom-loving colleagues I strongly reject Trumps demand to over [---] military leaders that they should focus on the enemy within. Those patriots who have sacrificed so much to serve in uniform must not be used as political pawns to wage war against Trump's political foes. Our democracy depends on it. Trumps speech to U.S. military officers yesterday was wrong on every level. Deploying US troops against US citizens in American cities isnt just unprecedented & unconstitutional its un-American. I led [--] colleagues most of them vets in an urgent message to Trump."

"With Abbott/Patrick already controlling UT this new Trump demand probably adds little additional suppression of the free exchange of ideas so central to quality higher education. But federal investment should not be based on how well a university complies with the MAGA agenda. Political control of universities is just another step toward Trump tyranny. https://www.wsj.com/us-news/education/trump-universities-compact-federal-funds-agreement-df158493 https://www.wsj.com/us-news/education/trump-universities-compact-federal-funds-agreement-df158493"

"The Republican government shutdown has real-world consequences for Central Texans. I spoke to @KXAN_News about how Austinites will face even more travel delays at the airport as well as disrupted or slower services from federal agencies upon which many of our neighbors depend. Instead of prolonging their shutdown Republicans need to sit down and negotiate a reasonable end to the crisis they created"

"As Donald Trump is telling our military leaders to focus on the enemy within and use our cities as training grounds for the use of military force his Secretary Hegseth is so terrified of his incompetence being made public along with Trumps plans to misuse our military that he will force Defense Department employees to take lie detector tests and sign Non-Disclosure Agreements. If this were really about stopping leaks it wouldnt be coming from the same man who apparently leaked classified war plans in a Signal group chat."

"When Republicans arent lying about undocumented immigrants getting taxpayer-funded health care theyre hijacking civil servants emails to spread partisan propaganda.

"With a compliant Congress ready to do Trumps bidding American taxpayers will soon have to open their wallets to send billions more in welfare payments to farmers for markets they lost through his unwinnable trade war. This is on top of the $2400 per year in higher prices Trumps tariff taxes are costing the average American family. America cannot afford Trumps destructive trade war. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/10/02/trump-bailouts-farmers-tariffs-usda-00591846 https://www.politico.com/news/2025/10/02/trump-bailouts-farmers-tariffs-usda-00591846"

"Donald Trump is calling for the arrest of an elected Illinois Governor and Chicago Mayor. Not because they've committed any crime but because they're standing up to a lawless president.

"Welcome news that Israel and Hamas have agreed on the first phase of a plan to end the devastating war in Gaza and finally bring the hostages home. While the most difficult issues for a durable peace remain to be resolved Israeli and Palestinian families can begin to at last feel some sense of relief if an immediate ceasefire hostage deal and surge in humanitarian aid to Gaza can take place over the next few days"

"A time of joy to finally see [--] hostages reunited with their families and the attacks on Gaza halted. Trump deserves great credit for what happened today and great blame that it did not happen until now.So many more hostages could have been saved had Netanyahu not made his priority devastation of Gaza and indiscriminate killing of Palestinians and had Trump engaged previously instead of promoting his ridiculous Gazan rivera plan"
