A 5-year-old Texan just spent the first day of school in an ICE detention center. ICE kidnapped Liam Tadeo on his way to a soccer game with his dad. Liam should be in kindergarten. Instead, our government has thrown him in a prison camp hundreds of miles from home.

I wish our government would go after pedophiles like they go after brown men headed to work at 7 am. I wish they would close billionaire tax loopholes like they close our public schools. I wish they would fund healthcare like they fund forever wars in the Middle East.

An Amazon worker died in one of Amazon's warehouses. As he lay on the floor dying, management told the other workers: "Just turn around and don't look. Get back to work." That was a human being. A child of God. Sacrificed on the altar of corporate greed.

I'm running for LBJ's Senate seat. Like me, Lyndon Johnson was a Texas teacher. In office, he made the largest federal investment in America’s students this country has ever seen. When we win back LBJ’s seat, we can pass an LBJ-sized investment in America’s public schools.

Ken Paxton got a $250,000 donation from the chair of Texas Tech’s Board of Regents. The next day, he threatened to sue the Big 12 to protect Brendan Sorsby, the Tech quarterback who was caught illegally betting on his games. Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in Texas.

Ken Paxton just denied our public information request for the Hoffman Files. Adam Hoffman — an admitted child molester — should be in prison, but Ken Paxton let him off the hook. Texans deserve to know why. We don’t need any more pedophile protectors in our government.

We just dropped our newest ad — and this one’s special. It features my PawPaw — a Baptist preacher who taught me to follow the two great commandments: love God & love neighbor. Those teachings led me to public service and they’re why I’m running for the U.S. Senate.
