  1. I always enjoy his reporting. Does a really good job. Although, if I see him walk up to me, I’ll know for sure something bad has happened. The guy always goes to the worst news events. His interview with the father from Beaumont yesterday, made me cry. His interview with the old timer in front of the Hunt Store made me laugh when he stopped mid sentence to spit.
  2. When a politician is not afraid of losing a general election, there is no accountability for them being bad at their job. Texas keeps returning the same people to office who generally have no fear of losing to a democrat who may actually be interested in public service. However, what they are afraid of is losing a primary to someone who is more crazy than them. They have no interest in governing, but are more interested in culture war stuff. As a state, we care more about trans people in sports than actually working to make the lives of people safer and better. All that makes for bad governance.
  3. I’ve been searching but can’t seem to find an answer. I’ve sifted through all the false reports. Are there any confirmed reports of them fining someone alive today?
  4. Glad to see our elected Republican officials are on it.
  5. Let’s take these exact same facts but change just one. That one fact would be that either Biden or Harris were president instead of Trump. What do you think those pieces of shit who spoke at the press conference today would be saying?
  6. I really don’t want to be judgmental but these people are really acting like they don’t want to talk about anything of substance.
  7. There has literally been no information given here except for the number of rescues overnight. I see their mouths moving but nothing of substance.
  8. Facepalm.
  9. Where are you seeing this?
  10. People are really sensitive about pointing fingers over in the rain thread, but it seems like to me that Texas government is pretty much like the federal government. They put their best people on the grift and the worst on policy and governance.
  11. I said it earlier in the thread that there is no excuse for having as bad cell service as they do where all these camps are located. I don’t know who it is that fixes that but it always made me super nervous when my kids were going.
  12. The lack of cell service out there always bothered me when my kids were at Waldemar.
  13. I’m getting updates from a group actively looking for a loved one that there may be up to 200 people who are being transported out of Hunt to the reunification center in Ingram. The process is very slow. Fingers crossed that this is accurate. Hoping for the best as this is just devastating for the family that I know.
  14. what is overlooked in all these discussions is that the bad shit that will happen due to Medicare cuts, will not occur until after the midterms next year because that’s when they go into effect.
  15. You are acting like it’s an either/or proposition. We had a sensible bi-partisan president pan to re-vamp our immigration. Your guy killed it in the interest of his election. We could have sensible changes to our system, deport criminals, deal with the remainder, but do so with the dignity they deserve as fellow humans. It could all be done without eroding our due process rights, sending people to foreign prisons whose only crime was that they came here for a better life, and not creating a thug police force to run our streets in masks and refuse to identify themselves. We could also do it without rounding up US citizens who happen to be brown just because we are trying to meet a quota. We could do it without terrifying children, putting people in cages, splitting up families and acting like these people are subhuman. Instead, your guys want to dehumanize and blame those who have the least power for all your failings in life. Like you guys could be billionaires and life would be like Mayberry USA if it wasn’t for all those dirty illegals taking our jobs, living in housing you wouldn’t dream of living in, and living off the government tit (which they aren’t). Of course, there is all the white entitlement you feel which is wrapped up in God, flag, and guns. My biggest disappointment is going to be that there is not a God to look you people in the eye and ask you what the fuck was wrong with you. Your post clearly proves that you have resolved the dissonance in all this by believing that these people are responsible for whatever problems we have that we have kicked the can down the road on for decades. Meanwhile, you still expect our economy to hum, people to do the worst but necessary jobs like picking your produce, mowing your lawn, building your houses, clean up your shit in hotels and cook your food, all for next to nothing in cost to you. But, instead, you have chosen to support being cruel, stupid and generally uninformed and bigoted.
  16. Great idea cutting off research funding to Harvard. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/20/health/diabetes-cure-insulin-stem-cell.html
  17. How these people resolve the dissonance regarding Trumps actions is truly the most amazing psychological event of our lifetimes. I’m just not sure that we have seen anything like it on such a mass scale. Some might argue that to some extent Nazi Germany, but the amount of media coverage and exposure we have to it now makes it even more remarkable.
  18. I saw some guy talking on TV about how there was a blue collar uprising that ushered in the Trump era. He then went on to say that because of AI, the next uprising will be white collar due to AI job displacement.
  19. I heard on the radio today that she has a whopping 14% approval rating in Maine.
  20. To do something you have to have power. They have none. I am terribly unhappy about Dem leadership. But, that goes back years. My larger point is that despite the moral depravity, self dealing, and possibly tyrannical shit being visited upon us by the R’s, it just seems so irrelevant to me.
  21. See my post below. Sorry it triggered you.
  22. My comment was satire on the whole the Dem’s are shit sentiment that I hear all too often. Why are people even wasting their breath on this crap with everything going on? Sorry I didn’t get it down on your level. I’ll do better next time.
  23. Yes, the democrats are definitely responsible for everything bad that is happening. They should be held accountable for all of these terrible Trump policies. By all means, stop voting for them. Things will definitely be better if they don’t ever gain power. Just like those Muslim Americans in Dearborn. They definitely had the right idea.
