The Texas GOP spent time this week debating whether or not to make banning halal food choices a legislative priority for the Texas GOP. Full on hate on display.

Tense scene outside the Collin County Courthouse as a verdict in the track meet stabbing trial as the jury convicts Karmelo Anthony of murder of Austin Metcalf in 2025.

Boom!

Something is happening in Collin County. You can feel it in town halls. You can feel it at rallies. You can feel it in conversations across our community. The eyes of Texas are on Collin County because what happens here matters. As I told @dallasnews: “Republicans are most afraid of the changes that they're seeing in places like Collin County, in Denton County and in Tarrant County.” And we’re just getting started.

There’s a big time row in the @CollinGOP 😜. The County Chair had to get a temporary restraining order, against paid consultants & precinct chairs working for Frisco Mayoral candidate Rod Vilhaur, who were seeking to force the CCRP to endorse their candidate.

There was a “Red Neck” rally at the Frisco City Hall tonight. Some of the rally participants showed up armed and with their faces covered. Suddenly, the city has become “ground zero” for extremists supporting a strong right wing agenda. Screen grabs from a video- Jesse Ringness

4,000 people on a Monday night. That’s what showed up in Plano last night. One thing I shared from the stage is that HD 70, the district I represent today, used to be Ken Paxton’s seat. People spent years saying Collin County would never change. Then voters changed it. Last night felt like another one of those moments where you can feel something shifting. Whether you agreed with every speaker or not, it’s hard to look at a crowd of 4,000 Texans showing up on a Monday evening and not recognize that people are paying attention, getting involved, and ready to make their voices heard. November starts now. #HD70 #PlesaforthePeople #CollinCounty #PeopleVsPaxton #TurnTexasBlue

After wrecking havoc on voter rolls, former Republican State Senator, an Abbott appointee, is stepping away from the Secretary of State’s office, just as the mid-term election season gets under way.

We don’t know what’s funnier: A GOP backed rag doing a story about the issues in the @CollinGOP or the fact that the @CollinGOP leadership is suing precinct chairs. @CurrentRevolt @texasgop @JasonWhitely

Last evening’s standing room only crowd at the Plano Event Center for @jamestalarico should be a strong wake up call for the @texasgop since it was in @KenPaxtonTX’s backyard in Ruby red Collin County.

We’re happy to see the Paxton’s being able to work out their marital differences and we hope an honest reconciliation is in the making.

Convicted and pardoned of felonious beating of the police on Jan 6 at the Capitol in Washington DC, far right extremist Jake Lang spewing his hate speech at the Frisco City Hall just before his arrest today by the @FriscoPD.

This is the crowd to see James Talarico tonight in Ken Paxton’s home county.

Jake Lang a far-right political activist who gained national prominence after participating in the January 6 Capitol riot was arrested by the @FriscoPD today. Originally facing 11 federal charges for assaulting law enforcement with a bat, he was given a Presidential pardon. @CNN

Just a few more photos from yesterday's HDCC event. Lots of amazing people like Nancy from @MomsAGAbbott; my friends from Collin County, Angie Carraway (HD89), Jordan Wheatley (HD67), Brittany Black (HD61), Sandeep Srivastava (HD66), and Rachel Mello (Fmr. SD8); representing the RGV from HD41, Julio Salinas; and another fightin' Texas Ag from the Class of '14, Moniqua' Scott from HD15, Whoop!! #HDCC #texasdemocrats #txchallengers #texaschallengers @CollinDems

Chants of “Lock him up” were heard at the Plano Event Center tonight when James Talarico mentioned @KenPaxtonTX

BREAKING: In a humiliating move, Donald Trump's Chief of Staff just asked JD Vance to get off of Twitter because he was behaving beneath the office of the Vice Presidency. MAGA is in extreme disarray. Good.
