Nicklas Zande🇺🇦🇵🇸🇦🇲🇹🇼🇽🇰🇬🇱 @nicklaszande.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Texas being a GOP stronghold is a recent phenominon largely due to Bush being from there. LBJ was literally from there, and Ann Richards, a Democrat, was Governor there as recently as the early 90s. 001
Nicklas Zande🇺🇦🇵🇸🇦🇲🇹🇼🇽🇰🇬🇱 @nicklaszande.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Unfortunately, Frank Sinatra was part of that line. (Wish he wasn't, but, we really should stop treating music artists like they're gods among mankind or something.) 010
Nicklas Zande🇺🇦🇵🇸🇦🇲🇹🇼🇽🇰🇬🇱 @nicklaszande.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I'm not here to start personal drama.
