Trump - Texas Outlaw Writers (Page 4)

The Sun is in Tune

If you monitored social media and certain "news" sources, you might have thought that Jesus was spontaneously planning the eclipse as a bit of divine retribution. Or if you listened to certain MAGAts, it was some kind of globalist conspiracy.

Alternate Facts, Yeah, That's the Ticket.

It seems the lies don't matter if it's your guy or gal. It has ever been thus. Add a polarized press to the mix and you have a recipe for some really lousy goulash.

Happy Easter and Vote for Me

Come unto me all ye who travail and are heavy laden, and I'll relieve you of the weight of all that money.

Make the Bible Great Again

Your "God Bless the USA Bible" will ship with a copy of the Declaration of Independence, AND the Pledge of Allegiance! You will never have to worry about the separation of church and state again!

Trump

We Need a Break from Spring Break

Paxton's droopy eyelid isn't the only thing limp at home. Could the Texas Porn boycott be driving the lecherous Attorney General into the arms of another mistress?

Economy

A Broken Land

We are convinced the only two kinds of people in this nation are millionaires and those who will very soon be millionaires. There is little accommodation for failure. You are expected to pull yourself up by your bootstraps even if you were born into a family that cannot afford boots.

I Find Your Lack of Imagination Disturbing

Texas keeps turning ever rightward, and this last set of primary elections continues the trend. It would be nice to keep public education, but it's not a given. Imagine turning off Friday Night Lights in Texas.

The Borderlord: Chapter Two

Abbott is brazen about using state resources to promote his political agenda, and nothing is more important to him than the border. He has no desire to solve the immigration problem. Instead, he has created a multi-billion $ issues platform to raise his profile, and Texans are paying for it.

Trump

We've Been Here Before

"The fear of speaking ill of Putin is so great that when Vlad killed his chief critic, Alexei Navalny, the only mention from Donald J. Trump was to compare his legal troubles to Navalny. One more reminder, Mr. President, Navalny is, uh, dead."

When Life is Like a Story in the Onion

"The party that once called the President a fascist and dictator, now wants him to solve the border crisis by Presidential decree. The folks who were adamant they needed a border bill, now say, Joe could have solved this all by himself."

It's February, People. Spring Training has Started

I'm having trouble focusing on politics. I mean, come on, baseball's coming.

Biden

Scratchings in the Dirt

"The person who is making America great again is Joe Biden even as the opposition tries to portray him as a lost old soul, bent in the back, scratching pictures in the dirt with a short stick, alone and mumbling."

I Really Wanted to Ignore Him

But he just can't put a cork in it.

Welcome Back to Middle School

What on earth would trigger someone's fury over seeing a happy young couple enjoying themselves, enjoying each other, and enjoying life?

Can Anyone Here Play This Game?

Governor Ironside here in Texas has decided "Supreme Court/Schmupreme Court. I'll do what seems expedient...I mean, right and proper." Our Attorney General is tracking down trans kids in hospitals in other states. Mexican people are drowning in the Rio Grande and Willie still can't get legal weed.

Economy

Masters of Our Universe

So many of our Masters of the Universe want to escape earth in their rocketships. If these guys are so smart... smart enough to plot interstellar real estate development, why aren't they smart enough to solve a few problems here, at home?

Trump

My Emails Are Trumptastic!

"He actually looked into a camera and in front of God and everyone, said that Donald Trump will unite the country. Even New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu (R), couldn't keep from laughing, saying even Trump wouldn't believe that."

Hope is Not a Strategy

The apparent inevitability that Trump will become the GOP’s nominee for the third straight time ought to force Democrats into extreme introspection on their armaments in the coming battle for the republic, instead of making unsafe assumptions about its outcome.

Greeting 2024 with Bright Red Feathers

"The drag performer Eula Rochards who outed "Kitara Ravache" (George Santos' performer name) was fairly surprised to hear that he was a Republican."

US History

History Does Rhyme After All

"Though most of the South had already seceded, when it came time to count electoral votes on February 21st, a crowd formed outside the Capitol with the intent of breaking in and with or without a buffalo horn headdress, disrupting the counting of the electoral votes to confirm Lincoln's victory."

Trump

Night, Night, Nikki

Haley’s education and experience exceed the tenth grade in Depression era Mississippi reached by my racist father, but she is acting just as influenced by the ways of the old South. Her wizened, conservative, little heart has been unable to surrender the icons and values of Dixie.

US History

Frankly My Dear, the Base Doesn't Give a Damn

Trump is facing trial for what some term an insurrection, or at least an attempt to overthrow a fair election. The endless possibilities are not very good. And despite the hopes of liberals, not a slam dunk. Despite the hopes of conservatives, the results will be humiliating - no matter how it goes

2024: The Year We Learn the Truth About America

"The establishment of our new Government seemed to be the last great experiment for promoting human happiness." -George Washington, January 9, 1790 (Hold your breath George, we might have to shelve this quote).

Face it, Our Laws are Anemic

Is the U.S. Constitution powerless to protect us from a presidential candidate with four criminal indictments? If so, why?

International Politics

OK. Uncle! I Give Up.

I am inclined to frankly, give up. The forces of commerce and human inertia are too strong. Politicians on the take, the companies that take them, and our own reluctance when confronted with change, will doom it.
