What is the meaning of the fact that Houston and DFW have more illegal immigrant residents than anywhere else in the US, except LA and NYC, and yet ICE has not shown up in Texas? (1) If ICE did in TX what they are currently doing in Chicago, Texans would lose their minds, regardless of party. IMHO, it is probable that there would be substantial push-back in the streets. (2) The Trump regime knows that it cannot lose TX Congressional seats if they want to retain control of Congress, and are trying to keep TX MAGA from defecting, particularly now that they plan to starve kids, make healthcare unattainable, and close schools and hospitals. (3) Trump is trying to help Abbott and MAGA retain control of the TX legislature. Conclusion: The RPoTX knows they are sailing close to the wind (Yankee for 'they are close to dumping themselves into a deep, cold ocean, and turning the boat upside down.'). Not only can the TX legislature be retaken in 2026, without MAGA, the Republican's support with the Texas MAGA base is weakening. My anectdotal evidence comes from reported chatter at N TX gun shows, where a whole bunch of TX veterans show up to socialize and talk politics. On deploying National Guard to other states; Not Happy. Healthcare and food prices; Not Happy. SNAP cancellation; Hungry Kids=Not Acceptable. Blowing up the debt in the BBB: Not Happy. Wrecking the VA; Really Not Happy. Possibilty of ICE thugs snatching up citizens in error and beating up women in TX cities; That's Why We Are Armed.

As bad as economic collapse is going to suck for all of us, it's going to suck for Texas Republicans the most.

Are there any of the amendments that you are definitely voting for? I don’t trust MAGAS to write legislation that doesn’t have a hidden agenda or possible loop holes.

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 From your lips to God’s ears! I pray we flip 14 seats! I’ll be working in HD121 and HD118. I live in the boarder of both. I haven’t heard of anyone running in HD121! And people have put up Marc LaHood signs even though the HOA in my neighborhood forbids them 30 days before the election. 🤬 I even got a flyer in the mail telling me to vote for LaHood! Why do you think he is spending money already?
