Here it is, y'all! My first stand up special. I was lucky enough to have amazing producers like Tara Brown, Jamal Fielder, Andy Cummings, and Robert Huey. Thank you to everyone that help made this happen and the folks that came out to the live show. youtu.be/QQQNYKiVgFI
I mentioned Elliot. I can send you the whole video if you like, or come out and see me at an event and we can have a real conversation instead of hiding behind fake names on X.
I was starting to feel bad for @TheSamSlade but I understand he posted a video of himself claiming Mark Strama and “Eddie” Rodriguez held HD 49.
That is laughably WRONG.
SAM, you owe an apology to Elliott Naishtat, who served HD 49 for the majority of your lifetime.
Its a Democratic Primary and they're running on working for Bush & Cheney. I worked on both Obama-Biden Campaigns and I'm proud to say that.
There is a fascinating strategy playing out in 49, where the two front runners @MontserratforTX and @kathietovo are on their own level, @joshreyna_tx is lobbing in attacks, and meanwhile @TheSamSlade is savagely attacking Rob Lerner and Kimmie Ellison. What a dynamic!!
I'm not a former Bush-Cheney staffer, I'm not bought by the Realtor Lobby, I'm not lying about my record, and I have 20 years of political experience. Sometimes you gotta bark up the wrong tree to get it to sway a little bit. 🤘
If you don't exercise your own right to vote, how can the folks in HD-49 expect you to vote for them when it counts. The fact is, everything counts and I've always shown up. #TeamSlade #HD49 #TexasDemocrats #GinaForTexas
Even on the campaign trail, youre never too old to get a talkin' to from your mama. She said "dont you dare pump those brakes, dont you dare stop hustling, you grew up right here, dont let these rich folks talk down to us. Never, ever give up on your community, I love you." #ATX

Going to Fox News for thoughtful cultural commentary is like ordering takeout from Hooters. open.substack.com/pub/jasons…
Thanks, Steven Weintraub for organizing the CAPTCHA/AWA Forum. The best part of campaigning is sitting down and having real conversations with voters in my hometown, HD 49. When we sit down, share ideas, concerns, fears, and even some laughs, we get stronger together. #TeamSlade – at Jollyville, TX
You can't run based on the fact you worked for @JoeBiden's Education Dept. when you didn't even vote for him. If a candidate doesn't even exercise their own sacred right to vote, then the folks in ATX (HD-49) can't expect that candidate to vote in their best interests. #TeamSlade – at Jollyville, TX
Thanks to the @AustinChronicle for having all of the HD-49 candidates running for State Rep. in Austin at the endorsement forum yesterday. Our campaign isn't taking corporate or special interest money. We are a Citizen Powered Campaign and we are proud to say that. #TeamSlade – at Jollyville, TX
This campaign is backed by tough Texan Women. Its fueled by tough Texas Women. Don't buy the cheap talking points. Austin, lets go make some real change. Lets go remind folks how special the Capital City can be when its people can shine. Mar. 3, we need your help. Vote Sam Slade! – at Jollyville, TX

Tovo-like preservation policies that require families to leave Austin help no one
Our amazing #TeamSlade Media Director, Amy, broke down the race for State Representative in HD-49 as clear as a beautiful day in Zilker Park. Look, we're hugely outspent because we're not backed by special interest or corporate money. We do have a lifelong bond with out hometown. – at Jollyville, TX

Abbott chose the secret police over the Constitution.
Amid the mushrooming controversy over the deadly shootings in Minnesota, @GregAbbott_TX 's campaign is offering pro-ICE t-shirts for sale as part of a fundraising strategy. #txlege

Are you better off now after 12 years of Greg Abbott?
No.
When I’m governor, buying a home will be part of the American dream again.
Join #TeamSlade on Saturday, January 31st for my 40th Birthday Fundraiser. Suggested b-day contribution $25 at the door. Its gonna be a damn good time. In very serious times, you need to have some very serious fun. 🤘 🇺🇸 #FightBack #GinaForTexas #TexasDemocrats #SommSpace – at Jollyville, TX

Texans are working more and getting less because of Abbott’s agenda.
When I’m governor, we will:
+ Invest in our neighborhood public schools,
+ Rein in corporate health care to lower drug costs and insure a million new Texans,
+ Make it easier for working families to buy a home.
