    I think that it’s now safe to say that we Texans now live in a failed state.  30 years of GOP rule, setting our own standard, living the “Texas Dream,” which they’ve bragged about relentlessly…and let

    My daughters and I talk about this. I’ve always been puzzled about where the idea of on-campus indoctrination comes from. I don’t think humanities and liberal arts faculty are any more or less toleran

They have asked for the DOJ to investigate Paxton's efforts for violating the VRA.

Garland right now.

Hopefully this riles up the abuelitas and tias to vote blue in Texas. 

 

Through knowing someone involved in the Paxton whistle blowers case, I know some not public details about Paxton. He's an absolute piece of shit. Everyone in the lege knows what a piece of shit he is. That a majority of Republican state reps voted in his favor tells you what a fucking cesspool the state Republican leadership has become. 

Fuck this state.

Are all accounts eligible to be paid to not draw power?  Or at least all that draw a certain amount of power per unit time?

 

also, a 400% nuisance fee seems a touch high. If anything, it should only cover lost “revenue”

Wouldn't the Texas SOS, who has been a Republican for like, 20 years, be responsible for ensuring non-citizens' registrations wouldn't go through?

Just because you send in a registration form doesn't automatically make you registered.  Someone has to process it in the SOS' office and I assume, ensure the registration data on the form meets the requirements (age, citizenship, residency, etc.)

would be a shame if you created a sock account and shared those "not-so-public" details with us

The fact that a “purge” had to take place is basically SOS office admitting “hey look at us we’ve been doing a shitty job at managing this for quite some time…”

I just got notice that Centerpoint is increasing the electricity delivery charge by 1 1/3 cents per kWh.  I guess they spent so much time not delivering power that they had to increase their rate to give their shareholders the same return.

Did they vote for him because they support him, or because they knew that he and Abbott would carry through on threats to come after them, and that Patrick was taking millions from a pro-Abbott PAC?

As someone who may or may not have been working on the initial steps of this outreach plan for the county, this will be me at work for the foreseeable future:

My cousin works for this POS. Lawyer that went to tech undergrad, said him working for his office is a stepping stone. Told him to eat shit but mom said leave it alone

This is coming to Harris and Travis counties.  They've been doing trial runs with Travis and the policing nonsense.

Stepping stone to prison or disgrace and/or the witness stand.

Oh, keep reading on this issue.  Apparently, several of the selected projects are adjacent or very close to.....Bitcoin mining operations.

The system in Texas is designed to accomplish one thing, and one thing only (hint: that thing is NOT "generate and deliver power to the people"): extract dollars from the pockets of the people, and put said dollars in the accounts of enterprises that contribute millions to Texas politicians.  That's it.  That's the whole thing.

The pols don't care where the profits end up.  All they care about is that a large chunk of them end up in their own pockets/campaign accounts.

Understand that for all of their "America first!" and "China bad!" rhetoric, they would sell the entire country to Xi personally if he cut them a big enough check.  THE. GQP.  DOESN'T. CARE. ABOUT. YOU. THEY ONLY. CARE. ABOUT. THEMSELVES.  Why thick-headed Texans can't see that plain and obvious truth will never not baffle the shit out of me.

It’s crazy that I long for the days when Rick Perry was Governor. Unfortunately the crazy rich guys beat out the sensible rich guys for most influential donors.

Good to see the party of small government is going to chase people who go to other states and do stuff in those states that’s illegal.

Abbott will want to keep building the border wall he has planned for New Mexico and maybe run it up to Oklahoma and over to Arkansas and Louisiana.

Only one of those states is a librul shithole.  The others are just shitty shitholes.
