These people are just soulless ghouls. Democrats need to treat Kolkhorst, Patrick, et. al. not just as political opponents but as the moral and ethical antithesis of being an American and a real human being.

Absolute ghouls. And I’m going gloves-off from now until November.

Go for it. Enough with this BS. We should meet them in kind against all the vile and ugly rhetoric and policies they espouse.

Is she saying that Fed spending on Medicare is more than Fed spending on Iran and tax cuts to billionaires?

Hi, we just published an article on our Substack on the Texas elections bill passed twice out of the Senate (2023, 2025) and introduced by Sen. Kolkhorst. The bill targets voters for not voting and eventual remove from the voter rolls. We did an analysis by county (including Fort Bend) on the constituent impacts. We expect the bill to be reintroduced for the 2027 session. You'll see the data in the article entitled, "Dr. Barreiro attends the MIT Election Lab Conference on June 2, 2026." votinguseitorloseit.substack.com

I have 2 questions for her. 1) How did she vote on this Bill? The Texas Legislature has declined to pass any broad expansion of state and federal health care coverage for uninsured Texans since the Affordable Care Act of 2010 required states to expand Medicaid — a provision later struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court.

2) How does she feel about a single payer system? ☺️

Also someone needs to tell her TACO is not going to solve this problem or any problem because he likes creating problems.

Michelle, Where there any Democratic Party elected there? Do you know who, if there were. 🙃

Kolkhorst is VERY in favor of all "market-based" solutions. Yes, Senator Cook was there, and she was a needed voice of reason.
