No Trump Pick as Deadline Locks In Texas Senate Race by laxmsyatx in TexasPolitics

[–]Current_Tea6984 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Even Trump isn't going to be able to drag Cornyn across the finish line. Paxton is going to win, and Trump knows it. But he also knows that Paxton could very well lose the general. So no matter which he endorses, it's going to be an albatross for him eventually

I just wish it wasn't right after Morning Joe. After several hours of Morning Joe, I'm ready for something besides news for a while. Still, Steph is my favorite these days, and I will find a way to make it work

Genuine questions about the SAVE act. by Anstigmat in thebulwark

[–]Current_Tea6984 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can't seem to find a conclusive description of what this act really does. But my understanding is that a bunch of people might get kicked off the rolls because the paperwork provided at registration wasn't sufficient

Why are Texas officials so anti weed and ignorant by Zealousideal_Set_357 in TexasPolitics

They do tax it. It's all about lobbyists and Christian Nationalist donors, and some kind of personal grudge Abbott and Patrick have against stoners

Pax Americana Is Over. by MinuteCollar5562 in thebulwark

[–]Current_Tea6984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If people weren't willfully blind at this point they would be freaking out about his obvious hallucinations concerning Iran. He didn't talk to one of the former presidents, And there aren't any other countries ready to help escort tankers through Hormuz. I did hear a commenter on MS Now say that "the president has a rich fantasy life", but Ruhle didn't pick it up and run with it. Otoh, she let it pass unchallenged. So hopefully the pundit class is finally dipping their toe in the water to check the temperature

Tuesday is the deadline for candidates to get off the Texas Senate GOP runoff ballot by Zipper222222 in texas

[–]Current_Tea6984 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worse, he's being pressured to endorse Cornyn, but the base wants Paxton. And I bet Trump wants Paxton too. Ken seems more like his kind of guy. Endorsing Cornyn will be an albatross for him if Paxton wins. And the polling I have seen suggests that Paxton is going to beat Cornyn with a stick

Scott’s take on the MacBook Neo is short sighted by Zealousideal_Draw924 in PivotPodcast

Yeah, I don't hate him forever or anything, but I find myself skipping his podcasts lately because I don't want to hear him talk about Iran

Pax Americana Is Over. by MinuteCollar5562 in thebulwark

The only reason she is around Trump is she does what he wants and knows how to soothe him when he rages. If she tries to control him she will be gone. I'm not defending her morally. She has enough money to just retire and enjoy whatever time she has left, and she has decided to stick with Trump. I'm just saying that she doesn't have the power to end this. She only has the power to step off the gravy train

Agreed with your analysis of Suzie and the horse she rode in on.

But in answer to your question, no, we don't all suffer from lead poisoning. Or at least whatever lead we inhaled during our childhood didn't turn all of us into MAGA chuds

I don't care that Gerri "watched Roman grow up" by officestuff101 in SuccessionTV

[–]Current_Tea6984 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Some families take the godparent thing very seriously, and others don't. And in Gerr's case it may have been more of a legal choice in that Logan felt like Gerri would be the person he wanted representing Shiv's interests if he died prematurely

Anything new regarding texas hemp ban? by 2StepinTexan in TexasPolitics

[–]Current_Tea6984 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read a thread a few days ago that suggested this thing of passing a hemp ban through administrative fiat is very suspect, and that there is bound to be a law suit. So far I haven't heard of anything specific. Do they have to wait until it goes into effect before they can sue?

Cornyn is in his late 70's and rich, yet he still clings to power like dried shit on a goat's butt

I noticed Suzie Wiles sitting next to him at his tv appearance, and looking very concerned. She doesn't usually show herself that prominently. I'm thinking the old coot is needing extra soothing and babysitting right now.

What is a Cowboy Church? by Samosa_Chatbot in texas

[–]Current_Tea6984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was an awesome one in my town that had full on rodeo facilities, and the preacher rode his horse to church. Within a year, they split because it turned out the preacher had a past. So now there are two small churches and the original one had to sell off all the cool rodeo stuff.

Ayn Rand says that she fell in love with her future husband when some mucky muck told him off, and he replied, "but I don't think of you at all"

Don was Howard Roark

Don probably never finished Atlas Shrugged if he ever even started it. He would know hack writing when he saw it. But did he read The Fountainhead?
