Yesterday was #WorldRefugeeDay. Syrian artist Abdalla Al Omari is painting world leaders in an unexpected light: as refugees. What were some organizations you donated to yesterday? #refugeeswelcome #WiseUp #podcast #blogpost #politicalnews #politics #news #blogging #blog #voting #vote #america #atx #austin #potd #podcasting #election #desi #southasian #hindu #sikh #muslim #texas #txlege
Yesterday was #Juneteenth, commemorating the end of slavery ― the day when black men and women were ordered to be released from their chains. Pictured is an ad ( one of thousands) posted by formerly enslaved people looking for their family. Even after the Civil War many families were never reunited nor saw each other ever again. While we celebrated freedom let's not forget the brutal toll slavery had on our nation. #WiseUp #podcast #blogpost #politicalnews #politics #news #blogging #blog #voting #vote #america #atx #austin #potd #podcasting #election #desi #southasian #hindu #sikh #muslim #texas #txlege #vlog #slavery

Alright, so everyone saw the Comey hearing or has heard about it. All the media outlets have their own version of what the main takeaways were but here at WiseUp we decided our main takeaway is President Clinton should have stuck to playing with balloons.

Best line of the #ComeyHearing today.... Of course, later today we will share our thoughts on the hearing. But, what did the rest of y'all think about the hearing? Did you think it proved nothing or was terribly damning to the President? Comment below!
Alright folks beginning July 18th the Texas Legislature will be back in Session. The picture above outlines the 19 items that'll be debated for 30 days. Some of the hot topics on the agenda include, school choice for kids with disabilities, privacy in bathrooms- you use the bathroom of the gender you were born with, abortion restrictions, a raise for teachers and plenty more. Stay tuned as we give our analysis in a few weeks of how we think this session played out and what we think will happen during the special session. FYI- this special session will cost $1 million in taxpayer dollars. Get ready. #WiseUp #podcast #blogpost #politicalnews #politics #news #blogging #blog #voting #vote #america #atx #austin #potd #podcasting #election #desi #southasian #hindu #sikh #muslim #texas #txlege #dallas #houston #specialsession #government #taxes #teachers
