    “He has introduced this new kind of ‘angertaiment’ where you just get people upset and then you podcast about it, and you write a book about it, and you make some money on it, but you’re not actually there when people need you. Like when the lights went out, when 30 million Texans were relying on a senator to spring into action, he went to Cancun. That’s who he is,” Allred said.

        Anyone can take him on, but it takes a special kind of breakout victory to crack the stranglehold that Texas’ corrupt government has on voter controls and active intimidation. Mark my words, Paxton and Abbot are going to be actively clearing out entire polling stations to make sure the state stays the course.

          Paxton is the rancid stain left behind by the Piss Baby.

          I agree with yoru sentiment they will fuck things up in every way they can. but I like Allred’s tone here, just saying.

    “So to every Texas woman at home and every Texas family watching this, understand that when Ted Cruz says he’s pro life, he doesn’t mean yours.”

    Great line

    Allred isn’t my ideal candidate for senate but he’s still light years better than the zodiac killer of Cancun, and I’ll happily vote for him the first day of early voting here.

    I do not like that boy Ted Cruz

    He really makes me spit my booze

    Right wing fascism is what he’ll choose

    With unlawful acts and violent coups

    Steel toed boots is what I would use

    To curb stomp his face and see him lose
