At times you gotta wonder if they know they’re maliciously gaslighting or if they really are insane.
Gotta do something to distract from her proven political corruption.
But wait! There’s more!
Lina Hidalgo’s top three staffers were indicted in April 2022 after prosecutors expanded the investigation into an $11 million ‘vaccine outreach contract’ awarded to one of the judge’s political cronies. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton last month joined the investigation into Lina Hidalgo’s $11 million no-bid contract.
Well… there’s a surprise:

If this doesn’t change, correction, if we don’t change that, gun owners will be telling two supposedly opposite groups they can get away with more betrayals and infringements. [More]
Establishment Republicans and Prohibitionist Democrats just got a pretty good snapshot of gun owner willingness to walk the talk.
Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales of Texas narrowly won his primary Tuesday against a gun-rights activist who pushed the border congressman into a bruising runoff that threatened to unseat a U.S. House incumbent. [More]
So the Vichycon gun-grabber won.
Looks like regrets are in order…

Rep. Gonzales: I don’t regret voting for gun safety [More]
And NRA darling Greg Abbot doesn’t regret endorsing him.
To be determined in today’s primary runoff: If Brandon Herrera regrets believing gun owners would do anything concrete to support him.

This is your opportunity to punch the gun controlling RINOs directly in the nose because the race that Brandon Herrera is in versusTony Gonzalez and all the RINO class in Washington, this has become the most important United States House race across the board… [Watch]
It’s a chance. Whether it’s a fighting chance depends on gun owners.
This is the most important video I’ve seen Braden Langley make.
As a tangential aside, it’s curious, how combative some get at the suggestion there ought to be political consequences…

Contorting, lol. And I never said, or even suggested, any of that. The 3% just objectively proves you were wrong about A+ meaning you always have to be right–it doesn’t imply anything about subjective weights of infringements. [More]
I’m moving the “debate” here because it’s bad form to hijack another man’s post with an argument, because it doesn’t limit me to 280 characters, and because I basically use “advocacy media” to promote my work, so as long as I’m doing it, why limit eyeballs?
The thread with the back-and-forths starts here. My response to this latest:
Not “wrong,” just not expecting you to argue a formal academic scale instead of one of principle. My assumption was you were saying helping Gonzales return to power only counted 3% against a grade of 100. I just didn’t realize what you were talking about because it struck me as so off-topic.
My mistake was accepting your distracting from the real issue with non sequiturs about 3% and age and four terms. It’s simple: Abbot is enabling a Quisling who sold us out to Biden’s tyranny and will predictably do so again. And you’re excusing him and doing so helps the establishment GOP exclude new and principled contenders, with no disincentives. So from my point of view, the one who “always has to be right” is the one evading that reality to instead try and score an irrelevant “gotcha.”
To me, real 2A fidelity means 100%, kind of like the reverse of you can’t be a little bit pregnant. Maybe it means something different to you.
And the “Bipartisan bill” did more than create new opportunities for ATF to destroy lives and kill your fellow gun owners on private sales. They’re extending the net for all it’s worth.
LOL, no. You are welcome to write what you want wherever you want, but I’m under no obligation to obey your unilateral dictates. Have fun with that, though.
If it quacks like a Democrat…
And see, here’s the thing. This is another Avatar situation. It’s not just Herrera he’s calling a neo-Nazi.
“Here, the district court concluded that ‘the federal government has both a dominant interest and a pervasive regulatory framework’ to control immigration into the United States, ‘preclud[ing] state regulation in the area,’” wrote Chief Judge Priscilla Richman. [More]

Now I’m confused.
Cervantes had been the chief of police for Rio Bravo, near Laredo, but he left his post after he filed a lawsuit in 2017 alleging that then-City Administrator Miguel Berry ordered him “to shoot the children of illegal immigrants (he) and his officers might arrest so it would be easier to send the parents back to Mexico,” according to the Laredo Morning Times.

Not a whole lot out there about what happened with this. In the absence of evidence beyond a reasonable doubt, the accused are presumed innocent.

While the rest of his statement plays well with MAGA voters, calling for that and not having checked to see if anyone would do it seems like more of the same impulsiveness that is one of his most vulnerable flaws, and can’t serve well in his current legal cases.

How about arrest invaders at the border and force them back across? And if the feds show up, have a standoff?
Who thinks this isn’t going to lead to civil war anyway?
Too bad they’ve ignored their militia duties, and if any volunteers showed up to bolster ranks it’d be damn near impossible to weed out the provocateurs.
