47: ICE, Billionaires, & the Texas Midterms—What’s Really at Stake? (Brake Room)
Episode 47
Friday, 16 October, 2026

Send us Fan MailTexas is ground zero for Trump 2.0—and for the resistance to it. In this inaugural 'Brake Room,' Deceleration's newsletter correspondents break down the stories shaping Central and South Texas and the world: ICE’s escalating violence, the fight over a planned ICE detention warehouse in San Antonio, the dramatic shift of Hispanic voters in Texas ahead of the midterms, Gov. Abbott’s push to break up city-owned utilities, and the techno-fascist vision of billionaires like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. We also look past Election Day to discuss: building coalitions across immigration, climate, and data centers; democracy beyond electoralism; and even the coming Global Doughnut Days (Oct 20–24).🎙️ Host Greg Harman (Deceleration founder/editor, Water & Power) with Roxana Rojas (ICE Watch), Gaige Davila (Coastlines/Faultlines), and Syris Valentine (Alternative Futures).Story: https://deceleration.news/podcasts/decelerations-brake-room-ice-technofascism-dying-trumpism/📰 Subscribe free at https://deceleration.news.
