The Texas House Committee on Redistricting held a session in Arlington tonight. I had the opportunity to give public comment, so I stepped to the mic. Authoritarianism doesn’t come in with trumpets. It creeps in and thrives on our hesitation to speak out. We say NO MORE. #txlege #redistricting

Over the next 20 days, I’m going to post 20 reasons / perspectives on why Fort Worth should keep their Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion programs. The City Council will be voting on 8/5 to suspend them. They shouldn’t. Reason 3 is From a Historical & Cultural Perspective Click here ⬇️ to read

Hey Mattie, It’s Been A While Since We’ve Talked At the 8/11/26 Fort Worth City Council meeting, when the council had three votes on the agenda around data centers, Mendi stepped to the podium, not to talk about data centers, but to talk about Mayor Mattie Parker. It’s 🔥 Mattie didn’t recuse.

Someone who was at the True Texas Project “Year Of The Patriot” event held on 8/1/26 shared this image with @mentack.bsky.social and I yesterday. Those on the paper were being discussed amongst a group there as “the enemies that we have to be aware of”. “The enemies” Looks like we made it!

The Tarrant County Commissioners Court on 8/4 is still on-going, but I was able to catch a few minutes of a resolution put forth by Commissioner Matt Krause. It was a poison pill. I wrote about it and walk through the why. Give it a read. open.substack.com/pub/christac...

91 Days Until Election Day You can’t be focused everywhere at once. None of us have unlimited resources. So how do we decide where to dig in? We dive into the data, looking at history in a precinct, trends, and specifically non-voters, and how those numbers change based on the election cycle.

Right at a year ago, Tim O’Hare, Matt Krause, and Manny Ramirez decided to reduce Tarrant County polling locations ahead of the November 2025 election. That’s nothing compared to what they are planning to reduce for the November 2026 election. This is Mendi using her one minute to push back in 2025
