Her loyalty is not to the law, it will be to her perversion and those who think like her.

You know the Republicans removed that option because the Democrats considered it unfair. The Republican state Congress actually removed the option.

Not to mention I saw a report today that tali-freako got more votes that Kamala Harris did by a wide margin. Just like Bite-me got more votes than Obola. Yeah, sure - NOT!

TX Supreme Court is a civil body, not criminal. The justices have long been all Republicans who spout conservative remarks in their little-noticed campaigns. But I am not sure if their overall performance has been that conservative at all.

People in TX have never been as conservative as the public persona contends. Many GOP officeholders are practically Democrat plants. That’s why Dems also took control of the Texas House. All Republicans have left in TX is Senator Cruz, a dozen or more congressmen, and the state Senate without the Republican lieutenant governor, who presides over the body. It may all the CA transplants who moved the political needle, or maybe its the large number of Muslims encouraged to come to TX.

They were so desperate to steal, they gave themselves away.

Yes, it was a trap.

So, a person who doesn’t know what they see in the mirror, is now a Supreme Court justice? You can’t make this stuff up!

I flew to Austin for a job interview in 1999

Nice homes but my hotel was near an abandoned shopping mall
with an abandoned Applebee’s out front

Very weird extremes I saw that day

[From the Article:

It was a historic election night....]

It was a historic night in Sodom and Gomorrah thousands of years ago too

Quite historic - Great work, Democrats!


Genesis 19:1-7
21st Century King James Version

19 And there came two angels to Sodom at evening, and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom. And Lot, seeing them, rose up to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;

2 and he said, “Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant’s house and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early and go on your ways.” And they said, “Nay, but we will remain in the street all night.”

3 And he pressed upon them greatly, and they turned in unto him and entered into his house; and he made them a feast and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.

4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom — both young and old, all the people from every quarter —compassed the house around.

5 And they called unto Lot and said unto him, “Where are the men who came in to thee this night? Bring them out unto us, that we may know them.”

6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him

7 and said, “I pray you, brethren, do not so Wickedly.
