And, the bad news is that Biden is increasing the illegal immigration population that will occupy Texas! This move will increase COVID numbers in Texas, for sure.

I once danced with Chuck Berry.

Jumped up onto the stage and danced with him.

Of course, he let his guitar come between us.

((((1971 at Boston College Auditorium. The Song was “Johnny B. Goode”.))))

He proudly did, if any county was thought to have 20 people with COVID symptoms.

He’s a grand idiot.

[[Sweet. I will be curious to observe the behavior of the snowflakes.]]

I expect they will scream and holler at the crowds not wearing masks, accusing them of ‘Not caring about the elderly and sick”

Pulled up next to a car at a light this morning. The driver, alone in the vehicle, was wearing two masks! Lordy.

Hey, I just came back after a week there. You are right. But the farther north you go (I stay and hour and a half outside of Tampa), the less people wear them.

Even though OK’s Gov. Kevin Stitt never instituted a statewide mask mandate, he certainly let every Mayor, City Council, Town Manager, etc. impose its own mandate. If only he would issue some type of proclamation that those mandates are to be lifted as well.

So happy for Texans! My CA senior got accepted to 10 colleges, in CA, OR, TX, NV, AZ, and LA.

Looks like Texas it will be! His #1 criteria is in-person classes. (His #2 criteria is “not somewhere too cold.”)

Had a “hard conversation” with a leftard 3 weeks ago and lectured me why I should wear a mask in line at a burger place..told this idiot:

1) if you’re wearing a mask, then I have no obligation to wear mine because the reason why you wear a mask is to protect yourself, right?

2) When you go home, you remove your mask right? What is the difference between wearing a mask outside? You still breath the same effing air AND oxygen and in this air, are bacteria, and that same air you breath inside. Do you have a magical filter in your house which gives you an excuse to remove your mask?

Im sure everyone who heard it were thinking about what I said.

Queue up the anecdotal demoncrat media stories about the people in Texas dying from Covid and fake statistics showing Texas with a spike in “cases” and “deaths FROM covid”. It’s coming, count on it.

100%, So he completely erased the border between Texas and Mexico? That’s a interesting move by Abbott?

Those in fear of going mask-less can still wear masks.

Given the huge downturn in cases and hospitalizations, and the rollout of vaccines, I think that the governor is being reasonably balanced between health precautions and economic activity.
