I’m asking a favor. Please follow Brett Cross, parent of Uzi. He is a hard working man trying to keep the name of his son alive in Texas. Uzi was killed with 20 others on May 24th, 2022, at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas. You can follow Brett on his social media accounts at to amplify his messages:

@bcross052422 on Twitter

@cross333 on TikTok

@brett_cross052422 on Instagram

Please follow, RT and share his message because Governor Abbott does not give a fuck. Most of the media has lost interest and has moved on to the now twice daily mass shootings.

118th & TX15th
She Knows How to Stay on Camera

Rep. Monica De La Cruz will proudly fall in-line next week in congress to crash the world economy by letting the debt ceiling fail unless social security cuts, food stamp cuts, Medicaid cuts and, defense cuts are made per the GOP.

Who knew Republicans would pull this by holding the economy hostage like Trump did for 35 days that ended in 2019?

This week beyond camera appearances:

1. No bills submitted on the planks of her platform 3.5 yr campaign run. monicaforcongress.us/

2. She did get appointed to the Financial cmte; she’ll be regulating the industries that donated $534,000.00+ to her campaign. myrgv.com/featured/2023/01/12/

And commondreams.org/news/house-re

3. She also voted for a house bill that would add over a billion U.S. national debt by eliminating 87,000 tax law, tax enforcement jobs over a ten year period. If enacted, the IRS funding clawback would just go on investigating Texas’s working poor of Texas. Texans have a median annual income of 45K which Monica now earns more than 4 times her constituents in her new tax bracket - WTG congresswoman! (It won’t pass the senate or the POTUS’s desk.)

4. Sworn in

5. Voted for the new speaker 15 times.

6. Made sure to document everything on camera and glammed it up on tv.

7. Did not pay back any of that “135,000 communist monies” she and her ex took from the American taxpayers from the paycheck protection plan.

Be sure to see her on break until Tuesday and she is “in district”.

Just a gentle reminder of this news flip-flopping leader our new congresswoman voted fifteen times. She was never going to have a backbone because McCarthy endorsed her failed campaign and ensured she had funding for her 2022 campaign.

She was won because of redistricting by the Tx GOP, low voter turnout and, party DEMs taking it for granted those who vote - will vote for DEMs just because there is a “D” after candidates’ names. Her district is mostly rural and spread thin with a huge helping of retirement age conservatives clinging to the good old days.

She has chosen to do most of her disinformation on her personal Facebook (FB) page so, the American people can be blocked from commenting. (FB See image, her campaign public relations guru posts comments to dissenting constituents.)

Hiding Public Information:
Keeping Texans Uninformed

Is anyone surprised our state government hides public information from Texans?

I’m still awaiting the release of Texas’s maternal death rate for pregnant women that the Governor decided to hold back until next year.

Where are the background investigation reports of the Uvalde massacre, autopsy reports and, why were state legislators required to sign nondisclosures?

Again, “FREEDOM” from our elected officials such as the governor means “freedom from holding them accountable.” Our leaders managed to keep their seats, grow wealth for self / family / friends and enriched businesses that manage the kill (Winter-storm Uri), poison (ground water) are examples. The system they’ve managed to build; entraps Texans into cycles of generational working class that are poorly educated, self medicated, overworked and underserved by our public servants.

Just thoughts from my restless brain…
