House Democrats are in a mad dash to isolate Texas Democratic congressional candidate Maureen Galindo, who has said she wants to turn an ICE facility into a "prison for American Zionists."

Why it matters: A mysterious PAC is spending hundreds of thousands to boost Galindo, which Democrats allege is a Republican attempt to ensure the GOP candidate in that district faces a weak opponent in November.

• Galindo did not respond to multiple requests for comment. A spokesperson for the Republican-aligned Congressional Leadership Fund declined to say if the GOP is behind PAC spending on her behalf.

The latest: U.S. Reps. Josh Gottheimer (D-N.J.) and Jared Moskowitz (D-Fla.) said in a joint statement they will "force a vote to expel her every day she is here" if she wins.

Driving the news: Galindo's campaign wrote in an Instagram post last weekend that, if elected, she would turn the Karnes County Immigration Processing Center into "a prison for American Zionists and former ICE officers."

• It's the latest in a series of inflammatory comments by Galindo, who told Axios she would introduce legislation to have "all American candidates and elected officials who have ever taken Israeli money tried for treason."
• Galindo finished first in the Democratic primary in the 35th District in March and is now in a runoff with sheriff's deputy Johnny Garcia.

Zoom in: This isn't Galindo's first time running for local office. Last year she challenged Councilmember Sukh Kaur for the District 1 seat and came away with 2.5% of the vote among 10 candidates.

Zoom out: Texas Republicans redrew the 35th District as a GOP pickup opportunity, but Democrats increasingly think they could hold the majority-Latino seat.

• The new district still includes parts of Bexar County but is largely rural, encompassing Guadalupe, Wilson and Karnes counties.

San Antonio is marking Flood Awareness Week by warning residents about the city's most dangerous low-water crossings and urging drivers to "turn around, don't drown" during heavy rain.

Why it matters: South Central Texas is among the nation's most flood-prone regions.

Threat level: Vehicles driven into deluged roads account for more than half of flood-related deaths nationwide, per the National Weather Service.

• Six inches of moving water can knock someone off of their feet, while 12-18 inches can sweep away most vehicles.

By the numbers: The San Antonio Fire Department tracked high-water rescues from 2015 to 2025 and identified the crossings where drivers most often got stuck.

• The most dangerous spot was Old Seguin Road at Salado Creek on the East Side, where firefighters responded to 46 rescues over the past decade.

Rounding out the top five high-risk crossings were:

• Old O'Connor Road north of Lookout Road (31 rescues).
• Hollyhock Road west of Babcock Road (20).
• Pinn Road south of West Commerce Street (14).
• Spencer Lane east of Balcones Heights (13).
• See the full list here.

What's next: Storms and showers are in the forecast through early next week, the National Weather Service says.

• Monitor flooded crossings and closures here and receive emergency updates through SA.gov/Alerts.

As the Western Conference finals head to San Antonio for Game 3 tomorrow, you won't see too many Thunder fans who made the trip down I-35 — at least not if the Spurs can help it.

Why it matters: For playoff games, the Spurs block ticket purchases from more than 150 miles outside the Frost Bank Center — meant to prioritize local fans, Spurs Sports & Entertainment spokesperson Lucy Kaneb tells Axios.

How it works: Customers buying seats through Ticketmaster, the team's official ticketing platform, will see a disclaimer about the restriction.

• Residency is determined by the billing address tied to the buyer's credit card, according to the notice. Orders placed by customers outside the 150-mile radius are subject to cancellation and refund.

What they're saying: Kaneb says the policy is also intended to "protect against mass purchases by ticket brokers from outside our market," noting that other NBA teams use similar methods.

• "Our local fans have supported and embraced our team for over five decades," she says. "It's important to our organization to recognize and celebrate their continued commitment to our team."

Yes, but: Secondary resale platforms may not follow the same policy, widening the pool of potential buyers — while also increasing the risk of fraudulent sales or delayed ticket transfers.
