Austin friends, you do in fact have contested races on your ballot right now — TCAD Board — and your vote will impact the future of our public services and schools. Here’s your cheat sheet: Place 1: Jett Hanna Place 2: Shenghao “Daniel” Wang Place 3: Dick Lavine

It used to take me an hour to bike from Mueller to Q2, but with the @RedLineParkway , Kramer, and Airport Blvd improvements I can do it in 35 minutes very safely. And it clearly having an impact! #AustinFC has had to expand the bike valet and it's packed.
Suppressing peaceful protest with intimidation is a needless escalation. We deserve an explanation for why such extreme actions are being taken to suppress the voices of seemingly peaceful protestors. Do better, UT.

The videos coming out of UT are shocking—peaceful student protestors being violently arrested and brutalized by DPS state troopers in riot gear. This is unacceptable. Freedom must include the ability to peacefully protest, regardless of viewpoint.
When I was in college, one of the most impt things we did was express our views peacefully. Today UT smothered students trying to do just that. I am dismayed @UTAustin & law enforcement chose to respond to peaceful protests with force & arrests. This should never happen again.
We are not supposed to be a country that arrests students for speaking their mind and journalists for covering the news. This is un-American and violates the First Amendment. Colleges are a place of expression and dialogue. Arresting them will not silence them.

I can’t remember a journalist ever being arrested for doing his job in my 24 years of reporting in Austin.

Video of troopers throwing @fox7austin photographer to the ground. He is clearly a member of the press - covering the protest. As troopers moved the line back - he was reportedly pushed by a trooper into another trooper. And, then - this happened. #austin #atx #utprotests

I’m glad the AAS is reporting on Austin crime trends. Recent trends show a safe city is getting safer, but there is still work to do, particularly on auto thefts. Thanks to the new APD Open Data Release and dashboard, reporting trends is now much easier. statesman.com/story/news/cri…

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, WILLIE NELSON. Uncle Fred's fun fact: 40 years ago Willie held his Fourth of July at Southpark Meadows in South Austin, now a site of a massive shopping center. Who woulda known? reddit.com/r/Austin/comme…
@fredcantu Saw a couple of good shows at South Park Meadows back in the 90s. The dream couldn't last forever.
A bit of #border history. h/t Jeff Taylor, "Eagle Pass, Texas, Back in the Day" Facebook page.
When SB18 became effective on September 1, 2019, one of its biggest changes was opening the “common outdoor areas” of all Texas public colleges and universities to the general public — not just “affiliated” individuals — for constitutionally protected #1A expressive activities.
As of this morning, 11 protesters have charges pending against them. All for criminal trespass — the same charges that judges rejected in 46 other arrests. The County Attorney's office tells me they're looking into the 11 remaining cases to determine if they should be dismissed.
Here’s the letter that the @UTAustin Faculty Council Executive Committee (which includes me) sent to our colleagues this morning respecting yesterday’s events: t.e2ma.net/message/7jm7kk…
DPS has pulled out all the stops to harass innocent college students, but wouldn’t lift a finger to help the victims in the Uvalde massacre. This state is broken.
This has gotten exponentially more violent and out of control since DPS began dispersing protestors. At least 5 arrested now. Watch:
I organized many, many demonstrations at UTexas while studying there 20 years ago. We camped out on the South Mall several times. We held huge marches in this very location (it was still a working road, not a plaza). Never that I can remember was DPS called in like this.
It’s chaos now. DPS riot troopers forcefully dispersing protesters, making contact, at least one arrest
I helped organize an unpermitted walkout and rally in front of the Tower in 2003 to protest the Iraq War. The police were never this heavy-handed.
This has gotten exponentially more violent and out of control since DPS began dispersing protestors. At least 5 arrested now. Watch:
Sometimes I need to stop and pat myself on the back for keeping it together as a worker advocate in the state of Texas where comp sucks or is non existent. #txlege #workerscomp
America's campuses are in utter turmoil, but one group stands tall: the student journalists who've been on the air or out at protests around the clock, gathering facts to counter online BS and showing the true meaning of free speech My column (gift link) inquirer.com/columnists/att…
