Rep. Greg Casar, a Texas Democrat and newly elected chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, previously led efforts to cut over $100 million from Austin's police budget, which included eliminating funding for cadet classes. His tenure on the City Council was marked by progressive policies aimed at reducing police funding and altering law enforcement practices.

Breitbart: NASA Announces Further Delays in Artemis Moon Mission, Still Hopes to Beat China
NASA's Artemis II mission, now delayed to April 2026, will send four astronauts around the moon, affecting the timeline for the subsequent Artemis III mission, which aims for a lunar landing in mid-2027. The delays stem from issues with the Orion spacecraft's heat shield discovered during a prior test flight.
With China planning its own moon landing by 2030, the U.S. is under pressure to maintain its lead in lunar exploration. Despite the setbacks, NASA remains committed to the Artemis program, which has already cost over $42 billion, aiming to establish a lunar base before future Mars missions.
