  3. Man was I in love with her when I was about age 11 (and beyond)... I think she was responsible for a lot of missing socks.

    I've hired people and ended up having to let them go for poor work performance. The bow down narrative is just a new Democratic talking point......before you were conditioned to say it, how many times in your life have you said it......my guess would be zero I will say, Democrats and the media are good at repeating messages......

  6. It’s called gerrymandering. Both sides are guilty.

  10. The courts was a fair comparison..... Each side does it and they are not going to stop. It has been going on as long as politics have been around. You wanting to make it stop when it effects your party is telling...... I'm ate up with partisanship?.....that is comical coming from you....lol

  11. I don’t question your ability. I have no doubts about it. There’s nothing woke about what I’m saying. It’s about fair numbers. It’s kind of like Evadale being in the same district with Beaumont United. They’d be playing football, 11 players on each side of the ball, but would it be a fair game? if all districts were drawn 51-49, 52-48, in favor of either party, it would be a political game changer for the betterment of democracy. I ain’t flaunting crap. I dropped out of UT after 2 1/2 years. Don’t try that “elite” talk with me. It’s your idol what loves the class wars.

    Started to post one of her bikini pics from back in the day. But, wasn’t sure it would be appropriate.

  14. They all get on their moral high horse when things don't go their way. I remember when Trump got his 3 Supreme Court justices, Democrats were going to pack the Supreme Court if they got enough of the majority......... Just wait tho......Thomas is 77 and Alito is 75....... If they both retire, Democrats would flip out....lol

  16. After each census, districts have to be reapportioned based on new census data. In Texas, according to 2020 data, districts need to be around 766,000 in population to equally apportionment 38 seats. Ten years is the traditional length between redrawing maps to coincide with the census. In 1995 or so Tom Delay led the charge that made Texas the first state to restrict between census dates. Now, Abbot is bowing to Trump to redo Texas. It is a horribly political process that doesn’t have to be. Several states use independent commissions to ensure districts are competitive, Arizona among them. I like fairness and equity. It would be nice to have districts drawn in a manner that actually made members compete for seats in the general election rather than be assured of victory after the primary.

  17. Happens even at a more local level. In 2021, Democrats (with Lina Hidalgo) redrew the county maps where Republicans lost a Harris County Commissioner's seat. That gerrymandering gave Dems a 4-1 majority, and allowed all the tax increases and other ultra progressive policies to be implemented. Now, after already finding a state loophole to be able to raise property taxes by 15%, Hidalgo wants more for free child care for all.

  19. People in Huffman have been waiting on this year ever since these guys entered Jr high. Will be a complete shock if they do not win the district handily.
