Amen! Many Texas Hispanics I know are proud to be Texan and American.

Hispanics lived in this area LONG before Texas became a State.
***********************************
That’s what many people don’t know about Texas. These people were called Texans, Texicans, and other names but they were here since the days before Texas independence.

When my ancestors came to Texas from Tennessee these people were LONG established and had lived under Spanish, French, and Mexican tyranny. My people were the immigrants. When Texas fought and won its independence from Mexico they were among the first citizens of the Republic of Texas.

No, the illegals aliens are never going to turn Texas blue enough to reunite us with Mexico. True Texans are proud of their state and its history. We are also proud Americans. But Texas is a nation state and many believe we could survive on our own again if that became necessary to maintain our independence and way of life.

Again, thanks for your input and G_D bless Texas!

I’m sure Cecilia Abbott, wife of governor Greg Abbott, is proud of her heritage. As a fellow Texan, I am proud to welcome her as our first lady of Texas.

As Battleground Texas found to their dismay, Texans are a breed of many ethnicities who for the most part work well together and respect the heritage of one another. We intermarry and the breed continues to improve.

Heck, if Battleground Texas, Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton and other liberal agitators weren’t around to constantly remind us we’re all “whiteys” enjoying our “white privilege” over the unfortunate few, we wouldn’t even bother to notice our diversities.

I still think most Texans are proud of their heritage and traditions that have made Texas the greatest state of the greatest nation on earth.

G_D bless Texas!

Okay Lt. Guv. Patrick...... I hope you are working your plans to defrock the Travis County DA’s office. We conservatives are watching.

We have close to a 2/3rds majority in both the House and Senate. We could pass legislation that takes away the authority to investigate state officials from the Austin DA's office to the Texas Attorney General. If it requires a constitutional amendment, it wouldn't take very many Democrats to pass such and amendment.
