Re: Tired of Cornyn?

A couple of things:

This is a self inflicted wound by AG Paxton. It makes me wish there was another Republican alternative to Cornyn that would not struggle in the primary or the general. Paxton has done a lot of very good things as AG and he would be a far superior upgrade to Cornyn and probably ...

Re: Tired of Cornyn?

Senator Angela Paxton has announced she is filing for divorce from her husband AG Ken Paxton. He then posted several minutes later. Not sure what impact this will have on his candidacy for US Senate. But this is the kind of baggage voters don't need. I hate this for both of them.

Re: Tired of Cornyn?


As much as I want Cornyn gone, Paxton comes with his own baggage, rightly or wrongly...
I'll vote ABC (anyone buy Cornyn) in the primary but seems we should be able to do better than Paxton.

I expect Paxton will be more vulnerable on election day vs whatever Dem gets their nomination.

ICE ambush Alvarado, Texas

I know why the national media is not covering this... and the storms and deaths in Central Texas is huge news story. But Antifa is ambushing ICE here in Texas. But this is the 5th assault on ICE officials here in Texas!

According to Elizabeth MacDonald of FoxBusiness on X: (emphasis mine)

Re: US Senate Parliamentarian


Silly question:

Is this only going to remove the $200 tax?

Or, Will this remove suppressors & SBRs from the NFA?


If the House keeps the changes the Senate passed, only the $200 tax is removed and would be $0.00. But there is an effort in the House to add back their language to remove ...

Re: Federal Judge Grants Preliminary Injunction In Challenge To California’s Non-Resident Concealed Carry Ban

I'm not tired of winning. Obama appointed judge wrote this. Shocked but pleasantly surprised!

In our Hoffman v. Bonta Lawsuit challenging California’s non-resident carry ban, the court has declared the State’s ban unconstitutional!
