Heard where he acknowledges the buoys had "drifted" to where about 80% were on the Mexican side. He now says they are back on the "Texus" side with that weird way he has of saying our state's name.

Because that's what Christians in Texas want.

It's absolutely by design.  Abbott would masturbate if he could, over the thought that some Mexican or Central/South American might not try to come north because they had heard that Abbott had families and little kids bused into an area with an active hurricane.

They have made voting an easy choice. I used to have to study candidates and vote with notes in Texas because both parties had policy views i didnt always support and individual candidates ran on different positions, visions or intensity of devotion to party platform. The GOP has gotten so disgusting.

Oh man, this. Maybe I'll vote for a Republican again one day for something other than a judge.

100% this.  If you want to identify yourself with the party that enabled a coup - full or otherwise - you have my full fuck you for life.  There's no walking back from that one.

If Harold tracks as some models suggest, those buoys will be, shall we say, drifting, further.

The schools are easy to figure out. Remove the Special Education teachers. Put all behavior kids in massive rooms with online learning. The libraries are the new behavior classrooms. Have coaches / security / minimal teachers for questions - save millions and test out mass computer education at the same time. Pearson gets $$$$$.

 

Its even more insidious than that.

Set up public schools to fail. Blame public education when they fail. Use that as rational for private school vouchers. Donors win.

So now that PragerU educational plan, lessons, and videos can officially be used in Texas classrooms as a part of, or in place of the curriculum, and because it was approved by the Texas Comptroller’s Office, are we taking bets on whether Greg had a say in things?

If the buoys were on the Mexico side when those migrants died, please let that shitstain be extradited to stand trial for murder in Mexico.

Those folks aren’t needed anymore. They now have the “behavior” centers in the old library. That’s where all of the “problem” children go now, where they will be virtually taught. This should go beautifully. :/

Well there should be plenty of room in the old library since they have banned so many books.

I thought are state government was vehemently against virtual learning.

These are kids that don't matter.

Which is why mine is now at home doing school online and killing it. That said - we are very fortunate to be able to have him home. There are so many parents with kids that are going to be treated worse than they ever have.

It seems Abbott has called for an election in November on 14 potential constitutional amendments.

Here are the propositions and the SOS's explanations.

Prop 2 sounds good in principle but I fear it could be a Trojan horse for charter schools to become property tax exempt based on my lack of trust in the lege.

This part sounds sus:

 

The proposed
amendment also would allow the legislature to define the term “child-care facility” and to
establish additional eligibility requirements to receive the property tax exemption.

Most private schools have after school care from 3pm - 6pm. There’s your qualification as an child care facility.

So wait, Abbott doesn't get to prove his loyalty to MAGA nation by playing with inflamed orange balls dipped in toilet water?  And he loses his border protection devices?

#8146

Texas taxpayer is the loser here. We pay our taxes so Abbott can display his bona fides to the MAGA that he can kill illegals easier than other governors. Taking the red balls out of the river just give Abbott more credibility with some.

They still won't love him enough to give him more than a few percentage points in a Republican Presidential primary.

Judge appointed by Reagan, and designated by SCOTUS CJ John Roberts to Texas.

Deep state.
