And Abbott and Patrick were re-elected. And the only statewide officer in Texas who tried to do anything at all was John Cornyn and he's about to get tossed out.
The height of hypocrisy is Donald Trump demanding metal detectors, armed guards, and locked-down ballrooms for his own safety, while refusing even the most basic gun control for classrooms full of vulnerable kids.
Christian evangelical pastors would rather say a demon flew up Trump's nose & took over his soul, than admit they were conned by an atheist that mocks their religion.
I use this mostly for Mavs stuff, but i’d like to speak on this for a second.
i’m a pastor first & would classify as an evangelical. two degrees in biblical studies & have dedicated my life to this both vocationally & personally.
the bad bunny outrage was never about “family values” or “morality.” Having Kid Rock (lol) as an alternative was not about “family value” or “morality” either.
this was about political idolatry, christian nationalism, & xenophobia. hiding racism behind the mask of family values is a tale as old as time.
this isn’t about evangelical conviction. it’s about evangelical compromise. the compromise of an allegiance to a false doctrine & political identity over the gospel.
if bad bunny isn’t your thing, ok. but kid rock & turning point does not represent the faith and religion i’ve dedicated my life to.
Most of Trump’s lies are abhorrent but I’d forgotten how funny the “annual physical” ones were. Yeah man, 6’3”, 224lbs. About the same stats as DK Metcalf here. Got it.
Mr. President, Ukraine did not “start” this war. Russia launched an unprovoked and brutal invasion claiming hundreds of thousands of lives. The Road to Peace must be built on the Truth.🇺🇸🇺🇦

BREAKING: President Biden just left Walter Reed hospital after getting his annual physical.
The doctor has confirmed that he can state unequivocally, President Biden is the healthiest individual to ever occupy the White House, nobody can even believe how healthy.
And then, while The President exited, a big burly man ran up to him, with tears in his eyes, and said "Sir, sir, thank you President Biden!!!"
And then everyone applauded.
