I track campaign finance in Texas, connecting the “what” to the “why” with my wife, @mentack.bsky.social Started http://seeitnameitfightit.com. Lots of talk about numbers, campaign finance, a spotlight on Christian nationalism, and some punk rock.

Saturday August 8, 10am to 12pm at Broadway Baptist Church in Fort Worth, the League of Women Voters - Tarrant County, along with a slew of other orgs, are hosting a panel discussion on Faith, Freedom, and Democracy. It’s about the impact of white Christian nationalism on our communities.

95 Days until Election Day (11/3) @menditackett.bsky.social reminds us that in 2024, 475,000 registered voters made the decision not to vote in the Presidential race in Tarrant County. We don’t have to convert or persuade the other side to win. We just need to focus on values and make connections.

They Don’t Want You To Vote Tarrant County Commissioners Court is reducing polling locations in November. Tarrant had 199 locations for the Primary. We had 25% turnout and many locations with long lines. In November, with turnout expected in the mid 50s, 176 locations. WTF. They are scared of you

Do You Stand On The Side Of Civil Rights? Mindia was zeroed in on court filings and Shayma Alzubi at the Fort Worth ISD board meeting on 7/21/26, pulling zero punches. Shayma Alzubi was cleared in the investigation. Make her the principal of Western Hills High School.

All I See Is A Drained Swimming Pool Whoa. Sabrina brought it at the Fort Worth ISD board meeting on 7/21/26, pulling zero punches going right at the Abbott / Morath / TEA appointed Superintendent (Licata) and Board of Managers President (Geren). The connections she’s making are spot on.

Yesterday was a dive into the statewide races based on the Semi-July campaign finance reports filed with the Texas Ethics Commission. Today, a focus on Tarrant County, with a look a TX Senate and House races (reports from the TEC) and County races (reports from the County). 🔗⬇️

I took a deep dive into the Texas Semi-July campaign finance reports on my Substack, looking at the top 10 individual donors and top 10 PACs / entities giving from 1/1/2025 to 6/30/2026. Some eye popping numbers for sure. #txlege open.substack.com/pub/christac...

People will tell you a $150M Senate race is where the fight is. We think it's a 25,000-vote gap in Tarrant County, the biggest "red" county left in Texas. We need your help to crowdfund democracy, especially those of you who are in safe blue spaces. We are the frontline

Mendi and I have been talking about the ideas in this one for a while now. It was time to finally pull all of those thoughts together. This is The Public Education Trap (AKA Don’t Chase Republicans). If you read it and it resonates, please share to help others see it (name it, fight it 😉)

God Would Raise Up A Tyrant This is from the documentary Life and Liberty…For All Who Believe (1982). It is eerie seeing the same things happening now that happened 40+ years ago, and the closing moment captures exactly what we’ve seen forced upon our country. #wakeup #seeitnameitfightit

It’s important to realize the white Christian nationalism that has taken over today’s Republican Party has been working on this FOR DECADES. The modern movement has obvious roots in 1980. This clip is from the documentary Life and Liberty…For All Who Believe (1982). #wakeup #seeitnameitfightit
