Much community support today after local podcaster EJ with 817pod was released from Jail. He was arrested after a warrant was issued for speaking at Commissioners Court last Tuesday when they tried to cut 140 polling locations.
We also want to give a big shout-out to Democratic Party candidate for Tarrant County Criminal Court No. 9, Lesa Pamplin, and candidate for the Texas 371st District Court, Marquetta Clayton, for their work today.
And thank you to the community who showed up.

Tim O'Hare and Phil Sorrells are turning this into Tyrant County. No matter what your politics are, what is happening to people in his court should matter to everyone.
Free speech (the freedom to not be PERSECUTED BY YOUR GOVERNMENT for having your own opinions) and due process matter to everyone.
These people have been arrested by Tim:
Carolyn Rodriguez: swearing
Charles Hermes: clapping
The Honorable Lon Burnam: picking up a microphone
EJ Carrion: swearing
And this means ALL of our rights have been infringed on. These four are just taking the brunt of the punishment.
EJ is still in jail as of 2pm on August 12 as they won't process his paperwork and release him. Click here to support EJ's defense fund:

We want to extend our appreciation to the Fort Worth City Council - especially our tireless Democratic members on the dais - for passing this resolution supporting more access to polling locations in Fort Worth. We see you standing up for the community and giving the Tarrant County Commissioners your official feedback, and we are grateful!
We also want to thank the Council and most especially the community for the progress made on data centers last night. It was an extremely late night after several hours of public comment and then discussion on the dais about data centers, and the result was a verifiable step in the right direction. Special thanks also to our future Lt Governor, State Representative Vikki Goodwin and future Railroad Commissioner, State Representative Jon Rosenthal, for coming to give their comments last night. We are so appreciative for our statewide candidates coming to Fort Worth to help us fight for our community!
This progress would not have been possible without the months and many, many hours of community input. Thank you all. This is what democracy looks like.

Things are ramping up here at TCDP HQ. With shipments coming in and literature going out.
Remember Melinda’s wise words: November is very important.
This is our moment, Tarrant. Let’s do this together.
