I appreciate the Texas Longhorn win but a real question remains. Did Ted Cruz stay for the duration of the game? Or did he leave for some other place where he wouldn’t be viciously booed? Because I like to think the Cruz curse is intact, but I can’t be sure.

@stephaniemiller.bsky.social A thing to know about Tarrant County is that Taylor Rehmet won a special election to the TX Senate in a district Trump carried by 17 percent. He’s facing the same opponent in the general election in a county where most (besides Judge Tim O’Hare) are running from DJT.

If Republicans feel really strongly about getting taxpayers to pay for Trump's golden ballroom, they should go out there and hold some town halls with their constituents. They can bring photos of the chandeliers and maybe a sample of the marble for them to look at. I'm sure it'll be a big hit!

Smart political move. Takes it to the Rs. Everyone is seeing Trump fall apart in real time. Make his party vote, or at least refuse to vote on this measure, and keep the issue live for the election. Hungary seems to be inspiring people here too.

Nazi camps were called "concentration camps" because they were designed to "concentrate" enemies of the state—political opponents, Jews, and others into guarded, isolated locations, forcing them to live outside the rule of law under harsh, often fatal conditions without trials.
