One criticism we often hear is that Texas is viewed primarily through a political lens. Politics do matter tremendously in Texas — it’s a conservative powerhouse — but the stories we’re most interested in are often the ones that complicate people’s assumptions.

Senate Democrats, not confident that President Trump’s first-stage peace deal with Iran will hold, are continuing their push for Congress to formally end the war. But they remain one Republican supporter shy of the 51 votes needed to pass a war powers resolution terminating hostilities with Iran. “Trump’s Iran war blunder can’t end soon enough,” said Senate Democratic Leader Charles E.
