What is BS? That Talarico and Crockett were both good candidates? That having a choice of democrats brought people out?
Who said anything about Republicans? What are you talking about? I feel like you’re responding to something I didn’t say.

Having two high profile dems running for the first time made people pay attention and brought them out. Both of them received more attention because of it. I am sure this affected primaries down ballot as well.
Hopefully, this energy to get to the polls stays for May runoffs and November election.

Difference between Sunday and Monday here was 40 cents. Went from 2.50 to 2.90. Haven’t seen it yet today.

I hear bugs have a lot of protein. I’m sure that will be next. Hey! I just realized. We can go outside-eat the grasshoppers and no more glyphosate needed.

What is this? Collin Allred isn’t running for anything.

I think it’s copying lines that were similar to what OpenClaw just said to the Meta AI director about her emails.

It was so obviously a prank/comedian. It was funny. I can’t decide if the fact that some people think it was literally Trump makes it sad or funnier.

Ooh. Sick burn. So mad that there is steam coming out of my ears. If that’s your take, then what makes Texans more deserving of this than Californians? You’ve clearly told yourself some story about the entirety of CA vs TX.

As an example-6M Californians voted for Trump. 6M Texans voted for Trump.
9M Californians voted for Kamala. 5M Texans voted for Kamala.
So even though the quantity of morons is the same, you’re saying outnumbered people deserve bad things?

It doesn’t matter for plenty at this point. Deadline for Jan 1 coverage was Dec 15. I picked a crappy plan so I could afford it as previous plan was too much.
I can’t change plans even if extend subsidies as open enrollment closed.

Those lazy NICU babies need to rethink their life choices. It’s really that simple.

If the Supreme Court says that the tariffs collected must be paid back-they will go to the companies themselves. When you purchased something with an increased price as a consumer because there was a tarrif on it-no one is going to provide a refund. Also-they’ll just hold their higher price point.

Haha! I grabbed a sheet of paper and was making notes! No pecan pie, 2 oz less of cranberry sauce, no sweet potatoes, add in Mac and cheese. I started to lose my mind and I threw it away after I was like “WHAT AM I DOING? Why is my life like this now?”

Don’t worry. Amendment twelve puts the oversight of judges in the hands of the governor instead of an independent body. Nothing to see there.

I’m feeling a bit frustrated with my community today. The community who voted 85% in favor of Trump. Who blame the “DemocRATS” for them not getting food stamps and are clearly brainwashed.

Considering giving a large donation to the food bank of thoughts and prayers for them to eat.

There are 17 amendments to the Texas Constitution on the ballot in a few weeks. I plan to vote NO on all of them.

Do you have a recommended source for laymen term
explanation for each? Thanks!!

All secular online homeschool groups are currently being inundated with posts that are concealed that are for Turning Point homeschool curriculum. They are posting on any requests for a SECULAR history curriculum. Even if people don’t get it once they click through-they are increasing ad revenue.

I truly wish there was a sarcasm font. Need a button to push. I speak sarcasm, I see and hear sarcasm in person. But in reading if you don’t know the writer well-difficult for me to discern sometimes.

The wording about how much will it “invest”…ok. So Meta buys some already existing companies. Creates nothing new. Creates no new jobs. Might even eliminate some due to consolidation. One could invest without building/creating anything.

Allred lacks personality. Which is required to get elected. So people stay at home and the crazies get fired up and vote for the crazy and normal, sane everyday people lose to insanity.

Oh look. That’s my representative! Whose office is 5 hours away from my home. I’m an hour from Dallas Ft Worth….but I have to almost drive to New Mexico to get to his office. No gerrymandering to see here!

Just say you’re too lazy of a parent to learn any skills besides physically overpowering minors.

It is surprisingly difficult to find a phone without Internet. And when you do, the ones I have gotten don’t charge after about a week or two. It’s a cycle of frustration itself.

Four things can happen when a tariff hits:
1) Foreign firms cut prices
2) Retail margins get squeezed
3) Retailers pass it on to you
4) Some imports just stop
Latest data: #1 didn’t happen, #2 a lot at first, #3 a bit so far, and #4 in spots.

Bottom line: Americans (#2, #3) are paying the tariffs.

It’s James Talarico. A Democrat in Texas.

Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks control Texas. The state legislature, Governor & AG do their bidding.

I think their point is that American’s won’t move into farmers provided housing. They will want to stay in their own house-which is not conveniently located so close. They’ll therefore work less hours, want more pay to cover gasoline and their own housing, feel like their commute is too long.

71m on Medicaid. 37m are children. 15m are disabled. 9m are elderly. That leaves 10m who are “able bodied”. How many of those are working? If the answer isn’t NEGATIVE 24m, then the math of 34m non-working able bodied on Medicaid doesn’t work. Hmmm.

4.8 million Texans voted for Harris. That’s more people than the population of 26 of our states. California had the most # voting for Harris. Texas had the 2nd most. If all you’re looking at are red and blue maps, you’re being fooled by gerrymandering. By your logic-this is what you voted for.
