"Democrat Coalition Propels Dustin Burrows to Speaker of the Texas House."
Burrows is very much in favor of the practice of awarding State House committee chairmanships to Democrats...as was his sleazy predecessor Dade Phelan.
"Burrows won despite the fact that Republicans control 88 of the chamber’s 150 seats."
Last month, Cook won the Republican nomination for speaker. However, Burrows and a minority faction of Republican members immediately sought to build a coalition with Democrats to secure his victory.
“Today, the RINO (anti-MAGA) Establishment laughed in the faces of our Republican grassroots. They chose Democrat chairs and Lobbyist buddies over their voters. I look forward to seeing if they’re still laughing after the next round of primaries. The fight starts today.” Rep. Shelley Luther (R–Sherman)

We need to primary every RINO. We Texans are extremely tired of this.
Sleaze is to kind of a word.
Bro...let’s try to think of something even more deadly than “primary.” :-) Just kidding...kind of....
If we can’t stop this crap in Texas where can we?
“We need to primary every RINO.”
What’s the success rate?
Money flowing in LBJ’s back yard.
You could never get this many rat turncoats. It is disgusting.
Bushbots - bump for later...
many were primaried in the last election, successfully.
Many hid their true colors until they were elected.
“What’s the success rate?”
Pretty low, but better than zero.
There had been talk of closing Texas primaries. Open primaries are the only reason Scumbag Phelan is still employed, as one example.
But now RINOs have control in TX as they pretty much always do (it didn’t start with Phelan and it’s not stopping anytime soon). (D)s who call themselves (R)s aren’t about to stop Democrats from voting for them in so-called Republican primaries, so this is self-perpetuating unless:
1. Conservatives stop splitting primary votes, often abetted by Democrats/RINO’s putting “paper” conservatives on the ballot for that very purpose.
2. Conservative candidates being able to out-fundraise RINOs. Good luck with that.
3. Voters getting smart. Good luck with that.
That’s why you have to defeat Democrats and allow them no seats and no voice in the Texas House.
The Repubs need to kill everything he tries to get them to support.
These people are scum. SCUM!!!
It’s time to dig up all the dirt that you can on these RINOS, force them to resign under threat of exposure, and then hold special replacement elections.
We need to primary every RINO. We Texans are extremely tired of this.
Inside and outside Texas (the Reps in WDC)......I haven’t voted for Cornyn for years and haven’t voted for Dan Crenshaw his first run but I won’t vote for him again!!!
I’m in a Texas House District that is “purple” and we have a freshman Dem who won with 54.2% over her GOP challenger that got 45.8%. It’s not just enough to beat the RINOs. We also got to win the purple districts in Texas.
proud to say Shellee Luther did it in my district!
I wish someone would post the names of republicans who voted for the dem speaker
