Texas Supreme Court should have waited a few days to announce this decision. That way many of the dems may have been back in Texas. And they could have been immediately arrested. The district judge needs to be investigated.

Coumo resigns and the courts rule in favor of the rule of law in the same day. Let this be a lesson to the doom-and-gloomers that, yes, sometimes things do go our way. But they won’t if we resign ourselves to being quitters which always results in defeat.

Technically, Scalawags were Republicans and Republican sympathizers. Your point is understood and agreeable, regardless.

“putting in jeopardy the liberty of some Democrats who have returned to the state.”
Oh it’s so good to see the media looking out for liberty! lol Funny how the only time the media uses the term liberty is when Democrats are affected.

Perhaps some judge in Hawaii will step in and tell Texas how it’s going to be.

The Texas Supreme Court must do more than over-rule the lower court judge because that puke knew that his ruling was both partisan and contrary to the Texas Constitution.

As long as they’re back, that’s all that matters. This will bring back the rest of them. And they still have to show up…we’ll see.
