(16,476 posts)I'm really hoping Beto can whoop his ass in November. He may just have a shot, especially if Abbott keeps giving him ammunition like this.

I wonder if Beto is starting to make him nervous. That could help explain why he keeps pulling one crazy stunt after another, each one crazier and more over the top than the last one!

(70,725 posts)In my lifelong study of wingnuts, the big takeaway is that they dont care about rule for the public good, dont care about a healthy economy, care only about POWER and retribution. So ABBUTTs big stunt of shutting down the ports of trade entry already resulted in billions down the toilet and will now cost the denizens of Texas BILLIONS more. But the wingnut perpetrators and their flying monkey voters dont care.
Mexico says they cant be hostage to someone who wants to use trade as a political tool. --- Things that make you go HMmmm, I wonder WHO theyre referring to?!1
As for PUTEEN passing power for 2-3 days to the worse version of himself, pictured. Gosh, these Russians look like parody villains, same as when the first picture appeared of Drumpfs MANAFORT. So if ABBUTT were to pass power, who to Dan PATRICK or Ken PAXTON, yeah-yeah I know which one is LT Guv, but same crap either one.

Mexican officials said they will move plans for a cross-border trade railway worth billions of dollars from Texas to New Mexico after Texas Governor Greg Abbott began enforcing enhanced safety inspections of commercial trucks crossing the border last month. .
In response, Mexican Economy Minister Tatiana Clouthier said the T-MEC Corridor, which will connect the port of Mazatlán to the Canadian city of Winnipeg, will run along the far edge of West Texas up through Santa Teresa, N.M. rather than through Texas, according to the Dallas Morning News.
Were now not going to use Texas, Clouthier said at a conference last week in Mexico City, according to the report. We cant leave all the eggs in one basket and be hostages to someone who wants to use trade as a political tool.
Mexico is Texass number one trading partner: $39.5 billion in goods were trucked across the Texas-Mexico border in February in both directions, the Dallas Morning News reported. ....

. Putin will transfer control of Russias government to Nikolai Patrushev, head of the Russian federal polices Security Council, while he is incapacitated during and after the procedure, according to a video from the mysterious Telegram channel General SVR on Saturday.
The channel which is purportedly run by a former Russian Foreign Intelligence Service lieutenant general known by the pseudonym Viktor Mikhailovich reported that Putin has been told by doctors that he must undergo an operation. ....
I will say that this is the worst option, the narrator adds. Patrushev is an outright villain. He is no better than Vladimir Putin. Moreover, he is a more cunning, and I would say, more insidious person than Vladimir Putin. If he comes to power, Russians problems will only multiply.
Viktor Mikhailovich ominously hinted that he and his allies will make certain efforts so this does not happen, and I hope we will succeed. .
