Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."
We need to be clear about what is happening in this photo.
Rick Scarborough, former Southern Baptist pastor, got on stage at the Texas Republican Convention and told state DELEGATE Mohamed Hussein to convert to Christianity or leave the country. He was so upset that he cried. It was then and only then that Rick felt guilty, so he sat down and pretended to pray for him.
The only evil we need to expel from this state are the people who don’t believe in the CONSTITUTIONALLY PROTECTED RIGHT of freedom of religion.

Ah yes, tell me more about how the mainstream media is “far left.”
This interview hurt my soul. The mistreatment of black women and journalists by this President is down right embarrassing and unacceptable. Kristin Welker is neither crooked or stupid. She is a history making journalist who has earned the right to be respected. The President should apologize immediately.
BREAKING: Ken Paxton’s own lawyer just endorsed James Talarico:
“I defended Ken Paxton for years in the impeachment trial and in state criminal cases. But in my view, I think Ken has lost sight of his core mission, which is to represent the people of Texas.
And unlike Ken, I believe that you, James, believe in unity over division and that you know how to assemble not only Democrats but Independents and Republicans and we need that right now.
We need unity, we don't need any more division and that's why I'm supporting you.”
This is patently false. There are plenty of people who listen to the Nat’l Anthem and simply bow their heads with their hands in front of them or behind their backs and pay respects. Holding your hand over your heart is not a requirement. The Spurs were not being disrespectful in anyway. Who is anyone to say they were just over that gesture? That is utterly ridiculous!!!
Chris Miller on Fox News: I "absolutely" told the Jan 6 committee under oath that Donald Trump made an order to deploy the National Guard ahead of Jan 6
Miller Under Oath: "I was never given any direction or order or knew of any plans of that nature."
Shawn Ryan on Trump: “I just don’t see any positivity coming out of this administration. It seems very self-serving. He had Todd Blanche do the dirty work so him or anybody in his family could never be audited by the IRS? What the fuck is that shit? The drone company, the $400M jet from Qatar, the Executives Club. Does this shit look like he’s serving the fucking people? No.”
Raphael Warnock and James Talarico, just to name two, regularly talk about God.
But Republicans think religion only counts if you're using it to bash immigrants, LGBTQ people, women's rights, etc.
Ken Paxton’s impeachment trial exposes the staggering depth of the corruption protecting him, as his top political allies funneled millions to the very person acting as his judge, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick.
A pro-Paxton PAC bankrolled Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick with $3 million in donations and loans just days before trial rules were finalized. Paxton’s political survival has long relied on dark money and billionaire donors buying protection.
Texans deserve accountability, not a rigged system where justice is bought by the defendant's allies.

This is Nate Paul.
He was under FBI investigation for fraud. His real estate empire was collapsing after 18 properties filed for bankruptcy in a single year.
He wrote Ken Paxton a $25,000 check.
Then Paxton directed his AG’s office to hand Paul confidential investigative files.
They blocked foreclosure sales on his properties.
And they sided with Paul against the charity he was accused of defrauding.
Nate Paul even employed Paxton's mistress at Paxton’s recommendation.
Paxton's own senior staff reported his corruption to the FBI. They were fired.
This is what Ken Paxton does when he’s in a position of power — and it’s why he should be nowhere near the U.S. Senate.
