The voters have spoken, and I want to extend my congratulations to James Talarico on his election to the U.S. Senate. I look forward to meeting him and offering my assistance with his transition as he prepares to serve Texans in the U.S. Senate.

Lots of fancy Texas early vote analyses out there, but here's a simple fact: in the 23 counties that voted for any statewide federal Dem this decade, early votes cast are at 91% of '24 levels.
In the other 231 all-GOP counties, early votes cast are at just 79% of '24 levels.

What is going on in Texas? The current Texas Agriculture Commissioner said he voted for a Democrat for the first time in his life and that Abbott “needs to go”. This is absolutely wild.

I don’t think you have a dog in this fight but if you did you would have shot it.
I’ll take @ellalangleymsic over Kacey Musgraves any day.
And if I’m choosin’ Texas, I’ll take Ken Paxton over James Talarico.

In Marfa, they’re streaming today’s Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission hearing at the local liquor store
With construction temporarily on pause in Big Bend National Park, around 100 people spoke out against CBP’s controversial border barrier projects on Texas Parks & Wildlife property at the agency’s annual public hearing. My latest for the Tribune 👇🏻 texastribune.org/2026/08/19/…

A crown jewel of our National Park system is being desecrated by people who have never been and don’t care what it means to Texans.
Texans don’t want this.

Good on @nytimes for covering this - the potential dark skies impacts of the border wall aren't getting talked about much - but it's no small concern: nytimes.com/2026/07/14/scien…

When I heard about Senator Graham’s death last night, the first thing I thought about was not all the things he said and did in service of Donald Trump. I thought of the time before Donald Trump when he was a brother to Senator John McCain.
A time when senators from different parties could fight about politics and still be friends. A time when a conservative Republican from South Carolina could say of my father: “If you can’t admire Joe Biden as a person, you’ve got a problem. He’s the nicest person I’ve ever met in politics. As good a man as God ever created.”
That is the Senator Graham I will remember today. Not because I have forgotten what came after. Because in that memory there is hope. Hope for a country where brothers can fight like hell over policy and still share a meal, and a laugh, and the loss of the people they love.
I will choose to remember the time before Trump. Because I believe in an America after Trump.
