I’m as excited about this upcoming election as any in many years. Yesterday we received our Texas midterm mail-in ballots. And now that Prez TACO has reversed course by encouraging the use of a mail-in ballot if in-person voting is a problem, you can bet our ballots will be mailed this

six times saying, “I’m losing. You have to help me.” According to polling numbers, crooked philandering GOP candidate Paxton continues to lag behind his US Senate seat opponent Democrat James Talarico. Apparently Rove isn’t returning Paxton’s call. While I’m not a fan of Brooks, Rove or,

president, and all civil officers of the United States can be impeached but only by members of the House of Representatives. A president operates entirely outside that process and cannot unilaterally impeach anyone. Critics and legal analysts point to statements like yours as evidence of confusion
