The civil war inside the Republican Party deep in the heart of Texas

I wonder if Jeffrey Fleishman can tell us how many times the Los Angeles Slimes has used the phrases “far-left” and “ultraliberal”?

“I grew up with these people and they’re attacking me,” Robert Granger, the precinct chair, said of the ultraconservative wing of the party. “It’s getting worse. They want to break public education and go to school vouchers. It’s political grandstanding.”

No. It's common sense. A great solution to a very broken public education system.

He sounds like a RINO to me.

Those “rock-ribbed conservatives” are either closeted liberals or Rockefeller Republicans who like big government, thinking it can be tamed and used for good purposes as long as "good people" like them or their counterparts "across the aisle" are in charge.

They simply cannot comprehend that the US no longer functions like it once did and the Democrats and leftists infesting those big government institutions are Communists who believe in the dictatorship of the proletariat by the Party (i.e., themselves) and are enemies of the republic. So by continuing to support big government, those “rock-ribbed conservatives” are simply useful idiots to be discarded and trampled once the Left gains power.

Having allowed leftists to commit treason during the Vietnam War and metastasize throughout all public institutions, the US is now like a cancer patient who must contemplate major organ removal or amputation in order to survive, like destroying & rebuilding public education, the universities and the government at all levels.

I didn’t read that far into it, but what I DID read, I got the same impression. There was nothing wrong with what I had read, and a lot that was right...
That was a few months ago, and all I can really remember about it was that I agreed with it, lol.

He sounds like a RINO to me.

The term "Assistant Democrat" is more accurate.

Meanwhile, the democrat coalition of blacks and Mexicans has completely blown apart in LA County. Blacks have been racially cleansed from LA County in one of the biggest racial upheavals in the country’s history. Watts, for example, which was nearly 100% black 30 years ago, is now 80% Mexican.

Mexicans in 2024 are now the majority demographic in LA County. (As predicted by many FReepers 20 years ago.)

It’s a story the fascist media, like the LA Times, refuses to cover, and nobody knows the ramifications of this incredible demographic change.

Hood County Texas is a tempest in a teapot; LA is a big turd in the punchbowl.

..Alred’s going to be crushed by Cruz.

I hope you are right. But, if that is so, how come we can't get rid of that RINO John Cornyn?
