Abbott was running neck and neck with DeSantns in my mind as the craziest governor but now he's pulled decisively ahead.

What are they smoking? I kept reading for the hook..like the new law was banning consensual sex between LGBTQ people, or transexual people as that's a big thing now in winger Texas, or maybe between progressives or Blaci people...but no, it's banning consensual sex between everyone?

What did I miss? A married couple can't consent to sex? What, they just have to shut up and do it, or not do it because it's against the law?

What a crazy state to live in.

Beto better grap this and run with it 24/7 in his campaign against Abbott as this is cray-cray.
