Gina Hinojosa Won’t Be Able to Govern like Greg Abbott. Should She Try?

Gina Hinojosa Won’t Be Able to Govern like Greg Abbott. Should She Try?

Greg Abbott made himself into the most powerful governor in Texas history. Only some of his playbook will be available to his Democratic successor—if she chooses to use it.

Just a thought… Since our Air Traffic Control System is outdated. Let’s fix the problem by building a new ballroom, build an arch, refurbish a golf course, “fix” the reflecting pool, and start a war with Iran.

Is it? DIdn't one President famously say "The Buck stops here." Our current President never says that. Never takes responsibility for anything. It's always Joe Biden, now is Buttigieg or the Dems, or Radical Left, or the immigrants, or the trans people. Why is that ok?

ICE cause car crash—point gun directly at U.S. citizen trying to help. Agent throws woman to ground with 1 hand—still waving gun around with other. Then pulls out taser & threatens to shoot. "She is driver's daughter," witness says. "Took her to hospital with severe injuries." The car crash occurred as a result of an ICE traffic stop of the man coming home from work. His daughter rushed off their front porch to check on her father when she heard all the noise. She was taken by ambulance to a mid-city hospital—for severe injuries to her hand, legs, and feet. Incident occurred on 58th Street in the Oak Park neighborhood of San Diego, California. Arturo Gonzalez doesn’t have an active account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.

It says everything about Donald Trump that his gilded ballroom dwarfs the size of the People's House—and it says everything about the American people that they repudiated him loudly and clearly last Tuesday.

Good point. But my take is still that the Christian Right rejects the Christian faith. #Talarico texasmonthly.com/news-politi…

Inflation is up again, half the cabinet lives on military bases afraid of various things, we’re selling sensitive chips to Chinese spies while the govt ignores it, we’re in an endless war w/Iran, there’s a mass exodus at DOJ, and flights are grounded. This is what MAGA voted for.
