It’s no wonder that Texas has to bribe companies and corporations to relocate here. We give them SO much money through tax breaks that they can’t say no.
I worked in Moslem countries for over 20 years. Just like everywhere there are good, bad and the ugly. I would rather live near a mosque than have a red hat bigot next door!
I remember when John McCain took the mic from the woman premising her question to him on her asinine assertion that Obama was a Muslim. He shut her down firmly and without rancor, but he also pulled the mic out of her hands and turned his back on her before she could react. And that was the last time I know of that Republicans weren't appealing to bigotry because of what it can do for their electoral prospects. I just read an article in the Texas Observer about the horror which is the Dilley Dentention Center. It is a place of arbitrary and capricious government action standing as a warning to us all. This place and its lack of due process foreshadows what Republicans are capable of unless they are voted out in this election.
Michelle, thank you for the report and the videos. I don't have the stomach to watch them in their entirety. I can get the gist for a few seconds, but I just can't keep going past that. You are doing God's work, sitting through all this. Christopher Hooks just published a good article in TM reporting on the Republican contest for party chairman. TX Republican Party insiders are quite plainly just living in their heads at this point.
Hooks mentioned, but did not go into the chairmanship battle on our side. I am voting for Kendall Scudder and I sure hope he is re-elected. Democrats seem to be turning into a viable party for once.
Ridiculous people. Of course Muslim legislators aren’t going to pray during Christian prayers. Neither or Jewish, Hindu or any other non-Christian religion. The irony of the death penalty for women who have abortions is apparently too much for the right-to-lifers to see. Goal clown show.
Oh God help us. These folks are absolutely nuts. 3 days of early voting. Yeah that is why they forced Jane Nelson out. Republicans in blue cities, will revolt. They hated our separate but equal primaries. Massive lines so 1.4 million can vote in 2 days. Ok. I am done. Time to actually knock doors.
They have a REAL elephant they're traipsing around as advertisement.🤯 A literal f'n circus! You nailed it Michelle: they are clowns. Confederate clowns.
The erotic passage in question comes from 200 pages into book 5 of a seven book series. I don't know how many school libraries it's in, but any kid that gets that far deserves some jollies. OTOH, I read Portnoy's complaint when I was in high school and only had to go a few paragraphs in.

Our convention is a big deal. We must elect Kendall and make sure the consultant class is crushed or we will never win an election in this state.
Looking forward to being there. It’s exciting, but overwhelming.
Can we have a meetup!!
Yes, I'd like that. I'm fixing to go to bed, but I'll DM you in the morning or you DM me. 💙
I saw Veda tonight, as will all get a picture together, all of us.
💙 I have no idea what to do. It's my first convention.

If these videos were aired in the evening news, the Republican Party would end.
Omg!!! Thank you, Michelle! Just shared on bsky.
As my husband says, if they want to Reform the Texas House they need to vote out every Republican in the House.
Thank you for this.
Michelle
