@TeamTalaricoHQ@jamestalarico Sorry, I was reading this old post on social media from @jamestalarico…you were saying something about tearing us apart. Admit to saying decisive stuff on social media before blaming the tool you used to do it. Politics 101. #txlege

“Republican extremism is killing women in Texas.
Now they’re promising to take these deadly abortion bans nationwide.
If they win in November, God help us.”
@TacoBelleUSA @TexasHempBiz ”And before going any further, it’s helpful to remember that the U.S. Department of Justice oversees the ATF, which regulates gun dealers; the FBI, which runs background checks; and the DEA, which classifies drugs.” #txlege

This is going to be awesome. I just dusted off my surplus #StandWithCarol shirts from 2021. Fundraising 101 - never let a controversial political moment pass w/o raising funds. It shouldn’t be a problem to sell them at the office. #txlege
#txlege filibuster on the weekend so one party can create some political theater w/ the “spontaneous” public protest. It’s a failed plan - remember the capitol was evacuated this week b/c someone threatened a member. Public safety says the Capitol gets closed again.
DPS “custody“ seems mean a DPS “protective detail”.
D’s leave Texas.
D’s scream their lives are endangered & need security.
D’s return & are literally awarded a DPS detail.
D’s complain about that needed protection.
D’s then cause the R’s to now need their own detail.

@jamestalarico I dislike answer questions w/ questions, but when you make such a big deal about yours
I ask a simple question: “If Democrat policies are so popular, why do they need to run from redrawing these maps; why not run on their policies?”
A: “We’re not in charge”

@txsenatedem The Senate was literally taking up Flood Relief while you posted this. I’m sure you coordinated this post w/ other senators, but be the cognizant of the current activity. You failed the senators by ironically not being prepared. #txlege
@CarolforTexas You also realize that when your staff posted this, the Senate was literally taking up Flood Relief. Does it really take over 90 minutes to walk out, record a video, & post it? The key to great comedy is timing. #TooFunny#txlege
@RolandForTexas You do realize that when your staff posted this, the Senate was literally taking up Flood Relief while you were sitting on the floor. Does it really take over 90 minutes to walk out, record a video, & post it? The key to great comedy is timing. #TooFunny#txlege
#txlege wouldn’t it be interesting if #SCOTX sides w/ Abbott simply b/c the members are visibly hiding outside of state lines leaving in place future in-state quorum breaks and use the precedent of “line of succession” that is set motion when the governor leaves the state.
@SarahEckhardtTX@TexasHDC You were out that day. This is why attending class is important (not only for Texas students). Try to get the notes from someone who WAS there.
@HannahDNorton Well
@burrows4tx
now confirms (for Texans & the courts) that offices of absent members are still operating & serving their constituents under the management of those absent members even though House Admin can perform that role. #COS are responsible too. #txlege
@bradj_TX@Burrows4TX So @Burrows4tx confirms the absent members are still getting paid, even though they owe $500 a day to the House Sergeant. The
next memo confirms they have parking spots by prohibiting office interns from parking in their spots while the members are absent. Great plan. #txlege
@OutfieldDan@HometownHeroATX So Dan Patrick isn’t mentally deficient, he’s just always relaxing? That’s a bold statement for this crowd…but you know what you’re talking about.
#txlege Borris Miles is so against the redistricting process that he’s not even going to vote against it, but he is going to tell you, for the record, that he’s an off the record “no” vote. In the end — https://t.co/gnzswhukgN
@GeneforTexas@texasdemocrats Remember that time you were in the same room as the VP & EVERYONE* wished they temporarily lost their hearing but realized they didn’t & were now stuck hearing the rantings of Alec Baldwin’s stalker’s classmate...#racistgene
*look at the secret service guy in the back. #txlege
