I’m with you. Ted does nothing for those he represents. He’s in cahoots with a broad range of political criminals.

Greg Abbott’s supporters (and Ted’s, and the whole GOP party’s) have major hooks into them via billions they have been plowing into these guys for decades. They remote control.

Dunn, Wilkes, et.al. are megalomaniacs includes Fertitta +++

They control everything from real estate, the electricity grid, petroleum and water rights, and the Texas government and legislature.

Fun fact: West Texas has abandoned old oil wells where the plugs are disintegrating and widespread water aquifer breeches are occurring. This is turning what was once scenic open land with many unique features and species into a wasteland. It breaks my heart.

Dweebs and rednecks lured by evangelical churches vote for them like lemmings. They have screwy ideas fed by Fox, Jones, Brannon, and their local “heretic pastors” go into this protoplasm mishmash that are their hive minds. They are all tied together with Trump.

Our once fine public education systems have become polluted and diluted by righteous evangelical wing nuts, with Abbott still pressing for Texas taxpayers to pay for Christian school vouchers. It’s been voted down numerous times yet he comes back like a whackamole. Shit, we already pay their church and Christian school property taxes. This irks me no end.

Taxes are up hugely since Abbott invited California to move in with us. We get nothing for the hikes. Constant road work and dangerous traffic. Gee thanks Abbott.

Austin area is running out of water. Drought plus overdevelopment. Now Elon has relocated to that area. Oh joy.

Trump comes for visits and affirmation rallies and meetings. Our pathetic governor sits looking up at Trump like he’s the second coming. It’s nauseating.

I was born in Texas. It’s my home for over 60 years. I hate that these assholes have wrecked what once was a beautiful state.

I read Jeff’s posts because they help me cope with the absurd reality that is scaring the shit out of me right now.

And yeah, I think Elon’s ninja interns could have messed with our election results. The big donation and the timing? Coincidence? 🤔 But who would look into it? Nobody. One day, maybe the EU or the UK will figure it out as part of a wider investigation into Elon. We may never know.

In addition, West Texas is suffering from a measles outbreak with many of those infected being unvaccinated. I don’t think your electric grid was ever updated after the last fiasco when Cancun Ted was on vacation?!

I have so many wonderful friends trapped in your once-great state. It’s been a long time since you had Molly Ivins and Ann Richards. 💙

Excellent article by election forensics expert Greg Palast. He says it’s not equipment tampering, it’s massive voter suppression & uncounted ballots; especially “provisional” ballots. Please read & pass it on.

Looking at the democratic response to the election “when we fight we win” nonsensical platitude’s. The tech bros clearly stated they can rig elections, the DNC failed to believe them sadly…good points I Have!!
