First sign of a Republican fighting back since January 21st.

Tucker Carlson has been on Governor Abbott's rear end for months.

Tucker invited Abbott to come on his show three times and explain why Abbott has refused to deploy the National Guard.

Now waiting for the next miracle...

GOP Congress persons start impeachment hearings because of Joe Biden's failure to enforce USA laws.

Perhaps I am cynical, but Governor Abbott is facing a challenge from the right. His inclinations are moderate, similar to Bush and Perry, but in an era of increased conservative militancy, pursuit of moderation would lead to his defeat in next year’s primary. Abbott also knows that DeSantis’ stock has risen to the Florida governor’s resistance to Washington while Noem’s stock crashed after waffling on transgender issues.
