One of my preschoolers kept asking if I was tired today during speech therapy today.
Finally I found out that she thought my cardigan was a bedtime robe.

When I think about leaving TX or the US I look at my students in the most danger are the ones who have no choice but to stay.
I think about how they have so few people fighting for them & if I leave they'd have less.
So I stay & keep running, fighting, bc one day we'll go blue.

It's hard to work at a school where some of us are trying not to cry or scream all day and the rest are super happy about the results.

I want to start an organization that runs commercials to educate people on common misconceptions, like gas prices, trickle down economics, why people flee their countries to come here.
We have to stop lack of knowledge leading to ppl to make bad political decisions.

Thankful this was foiled.
Schools should be safe.
Also, why would you want to shoot up one of the happiest places in Texas aka Buc-ees?
MASS SHOOTING FOILED: A plot to attack the Buc-ees on I-35 and two New Braunfels High Schools was stopped by the FBI and the Joint Terrorism Task Force. The man plotting the attack pleaded guilty Wednesday to one of the three counts against him. bit.ly/3NNZ3sY

I voted for Harris, Allred, and every other Democrat on my ballot for the future of the little girl who wrote this note, her sister, and every little girl like them.

About an hour's wait this morning at the polling site down the street from my house in San Antonio, TX.
I pray to God that they understand the assignment.

🧵 time:
To be clear, I’m voting for Kamala Harris, not just as a vote against Trump, but because she embodies leadership qualities that I value deeply: competence, intelligence, and empathy. Character matters.

In honor of @jeanniegaffigan sharing her position today as a mom voting for Harris, I’m resharing mine.
“While both parties are flawed in their approach to abortion, the left offers more societal support systems to address the root causes.”

The people of Texas, regardless of party, have the opportunity to elect a leader with character, vision, and the willingness to roll up his sleeves and work hard to do right by them. Let’s help send a great leader like @ColinAllredTX to the U.S. Senate.
Thank you President @BarackObama for your words of inspiration. Together, we are bringing hope and change back to the Lone Star State on November 5th.
At this point let's just be honest and call it a Klan rally.
so far at this trump rally in NYC speakers have:
-called Harris "the anti-Christ"
-said Harris and "her pimp handlers will destroy our country"
-called Puerto Rico a "floating island of garbage"
-"joked" about black people carving watermelons instead of pumpkins

This is how a president speaks about her country
I am committed to helping build an opportunity economy for Puerto Ricans.
My plan will ensure Puerto Rico is economically secure, creating opportunities for the island’s next generation to prosper.

Why did Lahood film part of his add in front of the North East ISD police department?
Did the school district have to give permission to film on district property?

This is the kind of storytelling we need over the next two weeks. Politics is deeply personal for all of us. When our son was connected to a breathing machine in an intensive care unit, we didn’t have to worry about a hospital administrator kicking one of us out because we weren’t seen as a family in the eyes of the law. Democrats did that. Before the Affordable Care Act, I would watch my mom send her cancer meds back into the pharmacy because we couldn’t afford them - she wanted to send me to school with lunch money instead. Democrats did that. Please tell your stories.
.@KamalaHarris and I both lost a parent to cancer.
It's the kind of loss that changes your life forever. There's the time before the cancer – and the time afterward.
Grief is already painful enough. Families shouldn't have to suffer financially on top of it all. My mom had to go back to work for a decade to pay off the hospital debt from the last week of my dad's life.
Every family deserves affordable health care. They deserve paid family and medical leave so they can care for their loved ones. And Medicare should cover in-home health care, so our loved ones get the care they deserve.
This fight is personal to us. And we will never stop fighting for families like ours.
