    Texas holds the second-most electoral votes in the nation and is often a testing ground for policies that later manifest across the U.S. But can historically Republican Texas turn blue? And if so, what impact could it have on the rest of the country? We speak to two Democratic contenders hoping to shift the next election. In this episode, Maria Hinojosa sits down with Tejano superstar Bobby Pulido, the Democratic nominee in Texas’ 15th Congressional District. They discuss key issues facing voters in South Texas, and why he thinks his “moderate” Democratic policies can win back Latino voters. Latino USA is the longest-running news and culture radio program in the U.S., centering Latino stories and hosted by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Maria Hinojosa.

    Reimagining Democracy: Using AI and Mobile Tech to Break the Outrage MachineCongress currently sits at a near-record low approval rating, yet individual lawmakers are reelected over 90% of the time. Why is our political system so resistant to public accountability? In this episode, David Beckemeyer sits down with Ramon Perez, Executive Director of the Digital Democracy Project, to unpack the structural incentives that keep our political system locked in hyper-partisanship and outrage. Rather than offering soft "be nicer" solutions, Ramon outlines a direct, technology-driven counter-maneuver: leveraging secure mobile platforms and artificial intelligence to bypass political middlemen, translate complex legalese into plain text, and hold representatives directly accountable to their constituents. Text me your feedback and leave your contact info if you'd like a reply (this is a one-way text).

    Voters Rebel Against Effort by Missouri GOP to Kill Voter Rights

    It's no secret that voters are increasingly disgusted by today's extremist, right-wing Republican lawmakers. But less known is the fact that extremist GOP lawmakers are even more disgusted by you voters!They're so disgusted that a top legislative priority of Republican leaders in the White House, Congress, and state legislatures is to rig election rules, literally to rule-out issues and voters they don't like. For example, Republicans in Missouri (the “Show Me” State) showed us what they're made of by attempting to kill the people's right to amend their state's constitution. Missouri and 25 other states have long provided a citizen-led initiative process so the people can propose and pass their own laws, rather than always depending on politicians to “do what's right.” Yes – it's direct democracy!But the people (damn them!) have been passing things like providing health care for the poor and raising the minimum wage. So, “No-no!” screeched Republican leaders and corporate lobbyists, who otherwise control the entire state government. In a perversion of people power, they wrote a ballot initiative that, effectively, would leave direct democracy “dead” in Missouri.Clever, huh? Use the initiative process to kill the initiative process.But the people rallied, exposed the fraud, and in a massive turnout of voters in last week's elections 80 percent – 80 percent! – rejected the establishment's anti-democracy ploy.Missourians showed ‘em – but anti-democracy elites are now pushing direct-voter bans in 15 other states, including Arizona, Florida, the Dakotas, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Utah. To keep track and shove back against these plutocratic power grabs, connect with the nationwide monitoring and grassroots campaigns of the Fairness Project: thefairnessproject.org.More from MissouriWant to keep up with Missourians who are fighting the good fight?

    The Right is tearing itself apart over a $20 burrito, while regular Americans are still getting crushed by the cost of living. A college kid told Turning Point USA's Andrew Kolvet that a burrito shouldn't cost twenty bucks. That simple complaint set off a full-blown conservative civil war. Ben Shapiro said you're “doing life wrong” if you pay that much. Marc Thiessen told students to cry him a river. Then Vice President JD Vance jumped in with a fat joke about Thiessen never missing a burrito. Matt Walsh, Sean Davis, and half of conservative Twitter piled on. Meanwhile the actual prices of food, housing, and everything else never came back down after the Biden inflation spike. The rate slowed, but the high prices stuck. Voters handed Republicans the White House and Congress because they were sick of it. Now the same party is busy fighting a proxy war over Chipotle instead of delivering real relief. Tariffs, energy uncertainty, and endless internal drama aren't helping. The $20 burrito is just the symbol. The real problem is a party that won on affordability and is now distracted by the dumbest online food fight imaginable. Pat also covered: Day 55: Mitch McConnell is still missing after being released from rehab. $100 hot dogs are selling out in Miami … why? Trump signs new executive order cracking down on birth tourism. If El-Sayed is a uniter, why is he attacking second lady Usha Vance? Sharia law survivor speaks out against Islam — McKinney, Texas, ignores him. Does this burrito war make the GOP look completely out of touch with working families?

    New polling shows continued majority support for the SAVE Act, a proposal that would require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in federal elections. Supporters argue the measure reflects broad public agreement that only citizens should vote, while critics continue to raise concerns about its impact and implementation. With the bill stalled in the Senate despite House approval, the debate is becoming a key issue ahead of future elections. The episode also examines a series of Democratic primary results in Michigan that Ben Ferguson argues signal a major ideological shift within the Democratic Party. He points to victories by candidates aligned with democratic socialist and progressive movements, despite significant spending and support from party establishment figures. In this episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, Senator Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson discuss new polling on the SAVE Act, the legislative battle over voter citizenship verification requirements, Senate Republican efforts to advance the bill, and what recent primary election outcomes could mean for the future direction of the Democratic Party. They analyze voter sentiment, campaign spending, establishment-versus-insurgent political battles, and the growing influence of democratic socialist candidates in key races. Topics Covered: New Rasmussen polling on voter support for the SAVE Act Senate gridlock over proof-of-citizenship voting legislation Voter attitudes toward election integrity and citizenship requirements Michigan Democratic primary results and establishment spending The victory of Abdul El-Sayed over Haley Stevens in Michigan The growing influence of Democratic Socialist-aligned candidates Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
