🖕🏼 Abbott Signs Resolution asserting Texas sovereignty under the 10th Amendment

@MollyJongFast
Why don’t you just try to get your power grid to work?



Greg Abbott
@GregAbbott_TX
I just signed a Resolution asserting Texas sovereignty under the 10th Amendment over all powers not granted to the federal government by the US Constitution.

The Resolution officially notifies the President & Congress to cease acts of encroaching upon the powers of states.

Oh but you don’t mean things like voting rights as detailed in the 14th and 15th amendments? Surely not...

None of his frantic political tapdancing will make that fact go away. I can't wait for this evil little creep to be a thing of the past.

but the glue he uses is failing

he's desperate to try and change the news cycle, but it's not working. Especially now that ercot is fucking us again in this heat wave.

asshole abbott, I think, knows deep down that he's fucked.
