What happens next? Hopefully the GOP finds their balls, employs the nuclear option and passes the SAVE act before your commie friends take over (i.e. steal another election) and pack the supreme court, end the electoral college, add Puerto Rico and DC as states, and enact permanent democratic control all while pointing to the other side shouting "threat to democracy".

The dems are always going to vote dem. But I always find it fascinating when the "concerned moderates" and "Never Trumpers" that "allegedly" have traditionally voted R, happily pull the lever for D. The Biden presidency was a complete disaster and a stain on our nation's history. Kamala said she'd "change nothing" about it so a vote for Kamala was effectively just an extension of the Biden embarrassment. The only explanation I can come up with for a traditional R to vote D, is that their brain has been broken by TDS and their soul corrupted with hate for the guy. I'm not getting everything I voted for (and none of us ever will), but I'm getting a lot of it. And it's infinitely better than if Kamala was in charge.

Thank you for your input Coach Crumedy (or is it Mrs. Crumedy?). Sorry it didn't work out for you here in Jasper😄.

What an insane take. First, you insist Trump staged his (3rd) assassination attempt. , then you pivoted to "it was trump's fault". It's quite the shame that the mods continue to let you troll this site. Seek help for your stage 4 TDS,

We need some more of those "I did that" stickers that TDS sufferers spent their money on.

Been a bad day for TDS and Never Trumpers

No, unfreezing Iran's own $20 billion is not the same as flying in $400 million of taxpayer money in cold hard cash on a pallet in the middle of the night.

I heard it was Toby's job if he wants is.

Oh good grief! Moderators, take the trash out. So now we're all going to hell if we voted for Trump? If this isn't out of bounds trolling, I don't know what is.

Oh the irony of this post

The difference is a US Senate seat is national. Yes, the same pool of voters, but way more outside money, national media attention, dirtier campaigns, dark money, bigger endorsements, bigger campaigns, etc. I would still be shocked if the democrats flipped a senate seat in TEXAS, but the GOP set it up on a tee for the dems to have the best chance.

Texas AG and a US Senate seat are vastly different campaigns. I've already heard republican friends saying they'd vote for Talarico. That's how bad of a candidate Cornyn/Paxton is. I will never cast a vote for Abbott or Patrick ever again and would have to hold my nose and vote R to try to save a Senate seat. Many won't even do that, they just won't show up to vote. I think this will be a lot closer than what you are expecting. But like you say...we shall see.

I hope you are right, but do not share your confidence. Paxton is terrible.

I strongly disagree that Talarico will be embarrassed by Paxton/Cornyn. Talarico is not Beto. He is a polished, experienced legislator, backed by the Democratic machine. He will get endorsed by national democrats and probably Joe Rogan and other big name independent thinkers. And then add a historically weak opponent in Cornyn (RINO, who pissed off most Texas conservatives with his ridiculous support of Biden gun legislation) and Paxton (crook and absolute scumbag). This one is setting up to be a nail-biter because of the failure of the Texas GOP, who's been hijacked by far right tea party religious zealots, who are more concerned with destroying public schools, subsidizing private school tuition for the wealthy, ten commandments and prayer time in school and primarying any moderate that stands in their way. You can thank looney Dan Patrick and bought and paid for Abbott for getting us to this point and giving moderate republicans and independents poor choices for candidates. It may now have serious implications on the national stage in the US Senate.

Out of curiosity, what overall grade do you give Biden for his 4 years?

"Well....Bye" - Curly Bill

"No new wars" What new wars are we in? Pedo/pedo protector Prove it! Prices still high Thanks Biden and democrats Openly racist If you have to play the old tired race card, you've already lost

I'm getting what I voted for. It's not perfect, but infinitely better than the alternative...solid B+.

One thing is true; things really don't matter to the majority of Americans. If they did, a lot more than tea would be tossed into the harbor, and streets would be lined with tarred and feathered corrupt politicians. But for clarity, are you justifying the slush fund because congress unanimously passed it (except for one Ku Klux Klan member democrat)? Why wouldn't they vote themselves more money and protection lol? While I enjoy and agree with most of your takes, I see zero justification for elected officials to use my tax dollars to defend themselves against their own scandalous behavior. Once again, it's a club and you and I ain't in it.

A couple of things here....first, congress was never intended to be a career. I don't give two craps about protecting a congressman's "career". Secondly, why does a politician get to use tax payer dollars (slush fund) to fight off allegations of wrongdoing (most cases are sexual misconduct)? If you get accused of sexual misconduct in your job, does your company pay for your lawyer? In most cases, no. Just one more reason for term limits for these leaches in Washington on both sides of the aisle.

She's a mother. Maybe instead of cosplaying some commie revolutionary protestor, she should have been focused on being a good parent to her child. Or you know....get a job. Or maybe this was her job courtesy of George Soros or some commie NGO,

I guess the big badge, handcuffs, gun and vest with huge ICE or HSE across it is not enough for someone to know who they are LOL. That's a clown take. If your ilk weren't out there doxxing and threatening them, they wouldn't have to wear a mask.

With that logic, would you have a problem with a school just 4 off from being in a lower division "opting down"....you know, for "travel" purposes? (I realize it's not an option). UIL should just make people play in the classification they are supposed to be in. It's ridiculous to "opt up" to get an easier path.

It's been a while since I've caught a game in Sour Lake. I know it was an extremely tough place to play in the Todd Sutherland era. Is it still like that?

Well in Bridge City's case, it was to get an easier path to the playoffs. They opted up to avoid having WO-S and Silsbee in their district.
