It appears that #spinlessJohnCornyn, the tone deaf Senator who posed for pictures in front of Trump Burger in H-town last week, has removed the ability to send his office a message on the mobile version of his website. Spineless indeed!

This is throwing off Nancy Mace 2022 in front of Trump Tower vibes after he endorsed her opponent in the primary. Cornyn will still be doing these even after Trump endorses Ken Paxton.

I can’t be the only one mad as hell that my representatives in Congress are spineless John Cornyn, soulless Ted Cruz, and senseless Keith Self. Why do Texans keep voting for these three??

One of our town’s founding families lost 1 child a year for 5 years to smallpox. Vaccines could have saved those parents the heartache and grief of burying most of their children.

Because of the pay gap, women have lost out on more than $60 trillion in wages since 1967. Yes, trillion. On an hourly basis, women were paid 18.0% less on average than men in 2024. We must ensure fair wages for all.

“…the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerated the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than the democratic state itself. That in its essence is fascism: ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or any controlling private power.” - FDR, 1938

During the Speaker of the house vote. Self … was taken in the back room by M. Johnson right after M. Johnson lost the first round. While in the back room trump was on the phone, Self was promised something. Self changed his vote! Johnson won. You all voted for him vote him the fuck out next time!

My newest tactic with John Cornyn’s office…I hear Ken Paxton plans to primary you. Let him have it & retire. You’d be 80 at the end of the next term anyway. You really want to be Diane Feinstein or Kay Granger? Retire and vote your conscience as a lame duck like Mitch.

On Monday, USAID's IG warned that Trump's agency cuts have made it harder to root out fraud and abuse — and that nearly $500M in food was about to spoil due to Trump's foreign aid freeze. On Tuesday, Trump fired him. So much for transparency.
