Last Friday, Texas Speaker of the House Dade Phelan appeared to be “drunk gaveling” while presiding over the legislature. It drew attention and condemnation from both sides of the political aisle. As we posted on Rumble:

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has called on Phelan to resign:
After much consideration, it is with profound disappointment that I call on Speaker Dade Phelan to resign at the end of this legislative session. Texans were dismayed to witness his performance presiding over the Texas House in a state of apparent debilitating intoxication. His conduct has negatively impacted the legislative process and constitutes a failure to live up to his duty to the public. Texans were relying on the House to pass critical conservative priorities including protecting the integrity of our elections and preventing Chinese spies from controlling Texas land. His failures as Speaker have created a credibility crisis for all Republican candidates and for our entire Party. While I hope Speaker Phelan will get the help he needs, he has proven himself unworthy of Texans’ trust and incapable of leading the Texas House.

Foster Brooks reborn!
Dade Phelan is a worse RINO than the worst RINO in DC. He is holding Texas way back from what it could be politically.
“Debilitating Intoxication”
A euphemism for drunk on his ass.
That d-bag was smashed
That d-bag was smashed
Day drinking! Nancy Pelosi approves!
Guy sounds like Festerman and Brandon had a baby.
If drunk gaveling was a thing Pelosi would have been gone years ago
“Dade Phelan”...sounds like the prick in a Lone Ranger episode.
Not that bad. He was still standing, so not ‘knee walking’ drunk.
Too many prog repugs side with the dims in this state and we get a drunk prog repug for speaker.
I already assumed that they were all drunk. This is only confirmation.
I’ll drink to that.
Dade Phelan is back stabbing rat collaborator he has blocked many good bills by working with the rats and a few Rino’s it would great if they could use this to dump him
I think i could only do congress critter crap while drunk. If i attempted congressing sober i would ridicule the whole but of idiots. Stating “congress shall pass no law.” period.
