I Got Them Stupid Party Blues

In a bold but ultimately unsuccessful effort, State Rep. Brian Harrison (R–Midlothian) forced a vote Wednesday on a resolution to remove Texas House Speaker Dustin Burrows, accusing him of betraying Republican voters and handing power to Democrats… The final vote was 141-2, with five members present but not voting, and two absent.

Republicans, they thirst for death.

Today in History

On this day in 1836, which happened to be Palm Sunday, at least 342 Texans were executed by firing squad at Goliad. The Texans considered these men prisoners of war, whereas General Santa Anna thought them “perfidious foreigners.” [More]

Whereas we get Democrat judges up in arms for deporting them…

Their Man in the GOP

Dade Phelan Doubles Down on Meme Regulation Bill Despite First Amendment Concerns [More]

What’s curious is Phelan was “rated 100% by NRA [and] Texas Rifle and Pistol Association” yet Democrats he included in his “leadership circles” and appointed to powerful committee positions, despite Republican objections, were big Kamala Harris boosters.

Our “gun rights leaders” do us no favors by giving ratings that ignore what candidates do to undermine their “good” votes.

Hence the “single issue” sellout.

Yep, that’s Phelan.

Home Defense-Free Zone

Homeowners in Irving initially came up with the idea of shooting and killing the pigs, but then realized they should not be firing a gun at the animals in a suburban neighborhood. “My first thought was, like, well, I can go shoot them,” Mendez said. “But I’m like, yeah, I’m in a neighborhood. I can’t just go out there and start blasting.” [More]

No, not just “blasting,” but then again, what qualified hunter would characterize it that way? Would he say the same thing if it was a feral human threatening him, and settle for “slingshots and clapping two pieces of wood”?

As long as Cooper’s rules are adhered to, what’s the problem? Who died and made this guy the arbiter of appropriate responses to be selected for national amplification?

Messin’ with Texas

Two illegal aliens told Texas National Guard soldiers that the reported “International Migrants Day” crossing rumors were being pushed all throughout Mexico via television and social media. [Watch]

Please announce immediate repercussions to be implemented after Inauguration Day, President-elect Trump.

None dare call it treason…? It oughta be.

Flag Burner

Cain’s bill establishes consequences for falsely accusing another person of being a threat. If the bill passes, state and local entities would be barred from enacting red flag laws unless they are “expressly authorized by Texas law.” HB 162 would establish that federal regulations are unenforceable if they do not protect the accused’s due process rights. Further, persons “who serve or attempt to serve a red flag order within Texas unless the order was issued under Texas law” would be subject to imprisonment. [More]

False reports should be self-incriminating.

So should enforcement and prosecution attempts that deny due process.
