Absolutely stunning how badly Texas Rs played their hand, despite years of majority control.

Redistricting seems likely to put more legislative and congressional districts in play and Talarico gets to smile while watching Cornyn and Paxton bludgeon each other for months.

So I’m with college friends at a @SisterHazelBand concert and when we get to security, the bouncer asked if we were drinking tonight and we said yes.

“Hold out your right wrist”
“You’re not going to ask us for ID?”
“Nah, y’all are going to see Sister Hazel”

It's fun to watch Ted Cruz tie the Kash Patel anchor chain around his neck like an idiot, but in between these comments he tries to defend Patel by saying that murder rates across the country has dropped and, uh, does he think the FBI is out there working local murder cases?

If the DOJ/DHS/ICE were serious about their own bullshit, they would have put ALL THEIR RESOURCES into capturing people who immigrated and committed serious crimes...BUT THEY PUT MOST OF THEIR EFFORTS INTO QUOTAS AND SWEEPS INSTEAD
