Texas' largest newspaper, The Houston Chronicle, condemned what it described as the Republican "blood oath" primary election where, it says, Governor Greg Abbott tried to get rid of GOP lawmakers who refused to side with him.
The Lone Star State held its primary on Super Tuesday. Some conservative judges and Republican lawmakers were ousted for what The Chronicle saw as simply doing their job and not giving in to the wishes of Abbott and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.

It’s almost comical how the left in this state is reacting.
on tv, on the radio, and as read by most,,, All government propaganda.
These clowns are so dramatic. 😂
Abbotts agenda seems to be whats best for his state…. Looks like voters there still feel the same.
... and the Democraps don’t try to get rid of people who don’t side with them? Actually, they do a whole lot worse, like trying to put their opponents in jail. On the subject of ‘blood’, Abbott’s “blood oath” is nothing compared to the “blood on the hands” of FJB & the Democraps .... Afghanistan 13, all those killed, injured etc by the criminal illegal invaders being allowed to walk into this country, those who have died or been injured by the shot mandate (military), and so forth.
“Some conservative judges and Republican lawmakers were ousted for what The Chronicle saw as simply doing their job and not giving in to the wishes of Abbott and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.”
If they were ‘conservatives’, that got booted, then the Media would be CELEBRATING, not complaining.
Politics is a contact sport....Choose your team wisely.
As usual, leftists condemn in others what they allow for themselves.
Cleaning time!!
ROFLMAO! Newsweek is concern trolling about concern trolls.
Abbot did not get rid of anybody. The Voters did.
Liberal crybabies.
So we had an election. No malfeasance or illegality is even alleged in them but the media claims something bad happened…..
Defenders of democracy at it again.
The Houston Chronicle does realize it was “The People” that voted these folks out, right? Like in any fair & honest election? Maybe the Chronicle should’ve worked harder to get the illegal immigrant vote to the polls.
Politics ain’t beanbag.
In all fairness, that is the best that high school journalism class students can do. Let me dress it up: “the awful, wheel chair chained MAGA robo guv darkened the bright yellow sky with his darth vaderish transformer chair, while he threatened to crush innocent ‘Newcomers’ from Mexico under his shiny titanium barbed wheels”....filled with madness that was caused by power thirst, he targeted brown babies most of all, because they would ‘spawn’ more future illegals.
The communist America Haters on the payroll at the Chronicle are just mad because their side got their ass kicked by the voters.
One of the many leftist commenters at the site claims that there are more Democrats than Republicans in Texas, and that Republicans only win because of “gerrymandering.” Yeah, that explains why EVERY statewide office in Texas is held by a Republican.
These creeps are delusional. And just stupid.
Getting rid of illegal aliens......at least in his state.
Isn’t that exactly what the demo-commies have been doing all along and ARE doing still; get rid of those who refuse to side with them? Sounds like much projection in the hope of influencing the weak-minded. Which is why the 19th ought to be repealed, among other changes.
