There sure are a lot of experts on Texas politics weighing in tonight on the race between Talarico & Crocket. Most have never crossed the Red River. Their knowledge of Texas comes from watching Landman & Dallas. Beware of their insights.

"I've never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure." This is a quote that Mark Twain never said (but gets credit for it). I don't care who said it, it was my first thought hearing Dick Cheney was dead. I will shout it from my roof top when the orange baboon exits.

I keep seeing posts that the Democratic Party should go all in on progressive candidates like Momdani. I like this idea; however, there are places where a progressive candidate can't win. Maybe the better thing would be to select candidates that are electable in each district. Dems are a big tent.

Another example of what a shitty job republicans do with governing. All these republican assholes want to do is fight culture wars, they don't help people or improve lives, EVER. All they do is bring suffering and death.

What in the hell are these brain dead baby Nazis doing. These are humans. You can’t just make them disappear.
Please continue talking about this. We demand answers.

There are procedures and protocols for the destruction of illegal drugs. Things like security, minimum temperatures, amount of time at the required temperature and most importantly state and federal (EPA) permits for operation. Animal carcass incinerators are not designed for narcotics

I am retired and not wealthy, but comfortable. I would like to do something to help young students. Has anyone ever approached the principal of a local elementary school and offered to provide some financial support in the form of lunches or supplies for students in unfortunate circumstances.

Abbott is calling a special session that will have congressional redistricting on the menu. Texas is already extremely gerrymandered. I live in Arlington, but my district includes a mostly rural area about 150 miles of here Our congressman is Roger Williams, a used car dealer from Weatherford.

Thank you governor. I wish Texas had a governor that would show similar support if there was flooding in Minnesota.
Minnesota is keeping Texas close in our hearts as devastating flooding continues.
We stand ready to help our neighbors down south in any way we can as communities begin the long road to recovery.

What’s going to happen in Texas when there is no FEMA support for flood cleanup? Governor Abbott? Any comments?

I hope that Hegseth and his minions at DoD are aware the renaming a ship is offensive to Poseidon and the spirits of the deep. In other words bad luck. A vessel's name is recorded in the ledger of the deep. Changing its name without the approval of Poseidon should not be done.
