The Texas Legislature will conclude in eight more days and will not meet again until 2027. But how much more damage can they do in the next eight days? If it is anything like yesterday, then the answer is plenty. While their inferior intellect was proudly on display yesterday, giving us lots to laugh about, their malice cannot be discounted.
Take their Ten Commandments bill, for example…. which actually has 12 commandments:
Listen to James Talarico (D-HD52) call out the Republican hypocrisy regarding lying and cheating on their spouses during the Ten Commandments bill:
This is why I could never run for office. I would have been a lot more direct than Talarico was (even though he hit the nail on the head). I would have said, “Did Lacey Hull (R-HD138) violate the Ten Commandments when she used a strap-on in Cole Hefner’s (R-HD05) butt?” Or “Did Jared Patterson (R-HD106) violate the Ten Commandments when he cheated on his wife with a married Shelby Slawson (R-HD59)?” Or Brooks Landgraf (R-HD81)? Or Charles Schwertner (R-SD05)?
