Abbott is a sick and evil man. I still haven’t fully finished grieving the fact that he would prevent help to a pregnant woman drowning in the barbed wire he placed. How absolutely cruel. The good people of TX and all good people of our country must rise up and demand decency, integrity, empathy, kindness, and justice from our leaders as that is what TRUE strength looks like.

Well, the sad thing is TX is fairly purple and many people don’t realize that but by ousting the really horrible people like Abbott things could turn around in that state. People often mistake my state of AZ as red but we are making big progress here… very close to overturning both House and Senate and we have Dems for governor and AG. Finally, the fake electors are being called out. Slow, but it’s tremendous progress. Many states are seeing the extremists for who they truly are: evil, hateful, racist misogynists.
Cathy, thank you! That’s what I mean. We are so, so close to changing this ridiculous Republican legislature. They hate for women to be independent and in charge of their own bodies, for public education to actually educate people; they like to pray in tongues at our AZ capitol, strip people from the voting rosters, and some like to attend coups! But in reality, the stats show that we are about 1/3 Repub, 1/3 Independent with most leaning left, and 1/3 Dem. We will get there and I hope this is the year. I know of almost no decent Republicans in this state. And Kari Lake is cuckoo, of course. Ruben Gallego’s senate race is going really well. He is a good guy with a good chance of winning. 💙
I’m also in Arizona. I thought we were making progress and then Sinema turned into a disaster. I love our new Democratic governor. She and our attorney general are surprisingly tough cookies but I’ll need to see if they can be re-elected.
If Kari Lake—a highly flawed candidate—even comes close, I’ll not believe this state is close to leaving its ignorant past behind. Remember, El Douchbag Ducy wasn’t that long ago.
Yeah, Sinema was extremely disappointing. And I really hope the race with Kari Lake isn’t close. I will feel the same. I’m trying to stay positive. Lost a whole lot of faith in people in 2016. But I do think Ruben has a really good chance. What district are you in, Jim, if you don’t mind sharing?
I worked—AS VOLUNTEER— for the election in a district with the highest percentage turnout in the state—or that was what we were told. After the election, lines were changed and because I now have no love for the Democratic Party I cannot tell you the number. I am in Tucson. Using probability, you are most likely in the Phoenix area.
Don’t get me wrong, I’d never vote for the MAGA Maggots. But politicians in general are all dishonest, IMO, even if they do not know it.
Suzanne, I apologize for being negative. I get that way knowing I must drive in midday traffic with all the crazies on the road.
I can be an ungrateful SOB sometimes because I always get great health reports. I have two sisters living up in what I’m guessing is your area of the state, one in Paradice Valley and the other in Scottsdale. Even though I’m the oldest sibling, I’m the one with the best health so a little survivors guilt.

I certainly understand your frustration. However, the crazies would not care what was demanded. They have crossed the Rubicon and will not return.

Thank you for the positive information about AZ. People like me in other states don’t realize the progress in Arizona.

So happy Ruben’s race going well!
Yes, I read an article yesterday that said Texas is quite blue, but gerrymandering keeps the Republicans in power.
Truth!

Off for medical appointment so bye.

Sorrry, too much information 🤪
Very well put, Suzanne!
Thanks, Leon. Just wish it didn’t need to be said. :(
I agree. But since it did, thanks for doing so!
Thank you!!
