I have a high school diploma from 1969. Here's what I know. In Texas there are roughly 29,145,505 people per the 2020 Census and 38 Congressional seats. Each seat should be representing about 767,000 people.
I'm pretty sure with a good demographics map, I could draw up 38 sections of the state...

When idiot Ron Schneider was born in 1963, the infant mortality rate was 29/1,000. It is now close to 5/1,000. So, no, children were NOT healthier when he was a kid. And he was, clearly, dropped on his head.

Boat strikes put US service members in legal jeopardy:

"Some junior officers have asked military lawyers, known as judge advocates general or JAGs, for written sign-off before taking part in strikes .... It does not appear that such memos were furnished, said one of the people."

Top Democrats demand details of spy agencies’ role in boat strikes

Democrats are demanding that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard share intelligence on lethal operations against alleged narcotics traffickers.

“This is not how American democracy is supposed to operate. And that’s what Prop 50 is about."

On Wednesday, Barack Obama joined Gavin Newsom in a livestream to support the governor’s redistricting measure, saying it has "critical implications not just for California but for the entire country."

Obama: California redistricting is "critical" for democracy

The former president called Proposition 50 a "chance at least to create a level playing field."

If a temporary resident of the White House can totally demolish the East Wing to build a gaudy ballroom, without any authority, approval, or regulation, he can tear down the rest of the White House to build a Walmart. That this destruction is allowed underscores how off the rails our country is now.

BREAKING: The top federal prosecutor in Maryland has reportedly notified Pam Bondi that she sees no basis for Indicting Adam Schiff on mortgage fraud.

Who wants to bet that the prosecutor will be fired within days, and a new prosecutor will seek to indict Schiff regardless?

When Tish James walks into a courthouse tomorrow — the target of a political prosecution demanded by a President obsessed with revenge — she does not walk in alone.

New York has her back.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.
