Not one American soldier fought and bled for this flag. Not one American taxpayer paid taxes to the government of this flag. Not one law has been passed under a government elected under under this flag. The ideological coup is complete.

Texas Tech ruining their relationship with every university just to have one season with a QB who had three fumbles against WVU

[🌪️Gront🌪️ @GrantKessler8]

Texas Tech fans don’t even argue that they’re ruining college athletics, they just look at you like this

[Connor “Stooks” Stooksberry @stooksman]

Good

Texas Tech needs to do the right thing here. And if they don’t the entire college athletic eco system needs to do what this judge said the NCAA can’t do

[Ross Dellenger @RossDellenger]

Big 12 ADs tell @YahooSports they’ve had “serious” talks on not playing Texas Tech. One SEC AD says there should be conversations about not playing Tech “in any sports.”

The Brendan Sorsby ruling has left an industry jarred.

“It’s total f***** bullshit.”

@NilesGApol This is what Texas dems have been doing at multiple levels for years and it does nothing for them at the statewide level. Talarico is a far superior candidate

Ok I am once more leaving this app. I’ll be back if/when I feel like it. Remember that this app isn’t real life and the second it starts to make your real life worse you should gtfo for at least a bit

[James Rambin @jamesrambin]

this kind of insane opinion makes so much more sense when you realize they’re talking about like, plano rather than anywhere recognizable as “dallas”

[Connor “Stooks” Stooksberry @stooksman]

He did and I do not believe him lmao

George Lucas said he explicitly modeled the Rebellion on the Viet Cong.

[Connor “Stooks” Stooksberry @stooksman]

There are bright spots but man it’s tough out there. Especially for someone with my beliefs.

[Connor “Stooks” Stooksberry @stooksman]

Never been so low and cynical overall towards domestic American politics. I really despise it right now.

[🏳️‍🌈Mar G-O 🌐🇺🇦 @MariGO2thepolls]

I don’t want that at all. I want fewer nefarious imbeciles in public life

[Connor “Stooks” Stooksberry @stooksman]

Been happily off twitter for the past few weeks. Forgot how much of this app is random unqualified people confidently putting out half baked absolute statements after like 30 seconds of thought.

[Connor “Stooks” Stooksberry @stooksman]

I think Talarico runs a great campaign and makes Republicans spend a ton of money in a seat that should be solidly red. A Paxton victory still would not surprise me. But Talarico has a chance now. I’d be surprised if the resultant mov was above 2% regardless. We got a race now.

[Connor “Stooks” Stooksberry @stooksman]

The most I’m willing to say about the Texas senate race now is that just about everything has gone right to make the race as competitive as possible. Can’t ask for much more. What happens happens.

[Swann Marcus @SwannMarcus89]

Recent events have really drive home how much better legacy media was than internet political commentators

All these twitch streamers and YouTubers are children who have never had real jobs and don’t know how the world works compared to working reporters from decades past. Destiny may have had child porn on his computer because he thought he needed to “preserve evidence,” Frogan, Kaceytron, and Denims all got sued because they don’t know how copyright works, and Hasan may be guilty of some light…treason

All these idiots who got involved in politics on Twitch when they were 22 are now in their 30s and are all fucking around and finding out and now everyone is getting sued and going to prison.

It turns out legacy media wasn’t so bad after all. We must return to tradition

[Zaid Jilani @ZaidJilani]

Everyone who thinks blue Texas is impossible has forgotten about Doug jones. Funny things happen when a party picks a terrible candidate.

[Acyn @Acyn]

Cornyn: Tonight we've come up short in this primary runoff.  I've always supported the Republican ticket and I intend to do so again in this general election.

[Hunter📈🌈📊 @StatisticUrban]

I guess we should remember Biden only lost Texas by 5.6 points.

A very blue national environment + the uniquely awful Paxton could put Texas genuinely in play. Democrats need to recover some of their losses with Asian and Hispanic voters while gaining more in the suburbs.

[Jessica Riedl 🧀 🇺🇦 @JessicaBRiedl]

Re-upping this post from a few weeks ago after Paxton's win.

Its not that the broader GOP primary electorate doesn't care whether a candidate is honest, ethical, law-abiding, or competent - its that so many of them actively distrust such traits as RINO/squishy.
