  1. A Big Beto donor I know who listens to Smerconish is shocked I think Paxton will win the primary. He predicts Cornyn wins 60-40. Im playing possum and trying to get him to give me odds.
  2. “The problem is greedy developers and corporate landlords ” meanwhile:
  3. Yep, understood - they do it in Austin too, but since we aren’t on a strong Mayor system and we don’t have registration in Texas they don’t make much impact. Things get very different when the Mayor becomes the CEO of city departments.
  4. No, but it’s close. To zero What’s more likely? 1) a nationwide data tampering so vast and sophisticated that it flawlessly produces convergent results across literally hundreds of diverse vote collection and counting regimes and timelines while also correlating to directional metrics before the election, like registration data and prior polling error, yet manages to leave no human footprint, or 2) a party in the climactic stages of a decades long shift away from primarily representing working class and middle class economic interests to primarily representing affluent, professional class social interests lost a convergent fraction of working class support across geographies? Democrats lost in 2024 because the party is dominated by people who don’t get it, and people who don’t get it don’t get that they don’t get it. Its like the Kirk Watson team when he almost lost to Celia Israel- until he came up short in the general he still thought housing affordability was a poor people’s problem or a property tax problem for old folks. It was only when she nearly beat him that the team realized it was the central issue of the campaign for 60-70% of the voters.
  5. Partisan municipal elections are so stupid, but all this shit gets 10X as stupid when a city transitions to a strong mayor system as Minny did in 2021.
  6. Love that guy
  7. Amusing Ourselves to Death is a great book and that’s a great quote. Amazing he had such extraordinary prescience in 1985. I don’t have a problem with it, it’s just not something I can personally relate to.
  8. I guess I don't understand how a person can say "I am a Democrat" or "I am a Republican" and really identify with a party unless they are deeply involved in the party itself or the daily business of winning and losing elections. It's one thing to consistently vote for members of a party, and I do, but the tribal element is very strange. Corporations don't identify with a party, why should a person? This is a transaction for me - my vote in exchange for X, where X is whatever I expect to get or happen as a result of voting a certain way.
  9. I’m all about accountability, but I don’t take the political opinions of males under 25 seriously for the same reason I don’t look to them for advice. They’re just trying on costumes at this point in life.
  10. I’m not gatekeeping, this isn’t about a rule, and in general I agree with you. This is about him personally. It’s similar to Ken Paxton. His Texan status was acquired and based on his behavior he seems unworthy of the honor.

  12. I agree with you. Do you think Roger Clemens considers you a Texan? Sure. But do you think Roger Clemens would include the guy in the kitchen from Saltillo? Who gives a shit? Roger Clemens does. He gives so much of a shit that like half of his Twitter feed is dedicated to praising a guy in the process of kicking the guy in the kitchen out of the country. That’s who gives a shit. I’m not the one gatekeeping. I know the story of this place. The constant influx of people coming here to change their lives for the better is foundational. There’s nothing less Texan than a person who does that, then when he’s made it, turns around and tries to lock the door behind him.
  13. Wasn’t born here, hasn’t died here, didn’t live here full time for most of adult life. From Ohio. Famously an asshole. The guy that made my Chilaquiles- wasn’t born here, hasn’t died here, lives here full time. From Mexico. Makes great food, smiles, and contributes to society. who is more Texan?
  14. He made a great breakfast and didn’t fuck any 15 year olds, it seems like a draw.
  15. Is the guy from Saltillo who made my chilaquiles this morning a Texan?
  16. Well sure, but you aren’t cheering from the sidelines while a guy throws legal immigrants working in restaurants and kids on student visas out of the country.
  17. You’re right, I shouldn’t be so salty. After all, Roger Clemens was fucking high school girls in the 90s so it’s only natural that he’s friends with Donald Trump.
  18. My family first came here from Missouri with Moses Austin in 1820, so unless he thinks the guy from Saltillo who made my chilaquiles this morning is a Texan, Roger Clemens doesn’t get to be a fucking Texan either.
  19. Roger Clemens isn’t a Texan.
  20. He golfed yesterday and today. Come on people
  21. No! That’s my other business, where we Trumpize people with deactivated and weakened viruses to prevent illness. I am accepting capital from new LPs, but expect to be fully subscribed soon. MAHA!
  22. Already there! I went out this morning with a great attitude, felt fluid and effortless practice swings and then when I stepped up to the ball I was topping everything, can’t make solid contact with anything longer than a 9 and hooking off the tee again. I even missed the ball altogether a couple of times this morning, hadn’t done that since day one.
  23. The raw milk is perfectly safe! Woke government schools just didn’t teach those people to use the right protocols for handling and storage. They need to have their raw milk actualized for gut acceptance, or MAGAfied, which is where the raw milk is brought just to a boil and then allowed to cool, then chilled in a clean container. I am raising capital to offer this service at commercial scale, buying raw milk from farmers and MAGAfying for resale to patriotic retail outlets, DM if interested.
