1. Sounds like big lawsuit.

[Bev54]

11. Yes he seems to really enjoy losing in court

[hibbing]

2. What does he hate about the free market and capitalism? n/t

[elleng]

5. People who think???

[applegrove]

3. Teaching freedom and death. Even of children. What a Libertarian moment.

Libertarian values. Does anybody still wonder why Trump pulled out of the World Health Organization during a pandemic? That was sharing antivax values to the poorer world.

GIVE ME FREEDOM AND GIVE ME DEATH (if i am not rich or useful to those in power or in the way if those in power)

4. I do not want to hear a single Republican say they are the "pro-life" party.

Abbot and DeSantis are just the most visible example of the truth about the Republican Party -- they only care about power, not people.

7. You're correct on every point.

[RockRaven]

6. So you're saying I can go to a restaurant where everyone is vaccinated AND none of the

assholes who are there are drunk assholes?

Don't tease me.

8. Republicans sure are big on "GOVERNMENT OVERREACH"

eom

9. This man is a psycho . . . . .

10. Proof he's even dumber than he is bigoted.

Think that'll get him re-elected? Prohibition???? When he doesn't get his way, you don't get your Budweiser?

12. Abbott is determined....

to kill as many people as possible, just so he doesn't appear "soft" to the rabid right-wing zealots.

As long as he only kills those rabid right-wing zealots, I'm fine with it. Problem is, there are always innocent people who are killed as collateral damage of their stupidity.

14. That's our "small government" shitbird. Business wants to discriminate against someone- it's

their business. Business wants to protect their customers—governor shit for brains needs to fluff the magat crowd in texjezustan

15. The concept is bizarre

and a serious abuse of power. He either gets with the program or face the consequences. Abbot seems like he enjoys having the power of life and death. He employs gratuitous cruelty like Trump did. His political calculation could turn into a bad move. Is he counting on voter suppression?

[KelleyKramer]

16. He is determined to kill as many people as he can

How long before he declares the vaccine illegal and orders all doses on hand destroyed

He is a mass murderer

[yonder]

17. The heavy hand of government........

As they are so fond of saying.

18. Well, at least Texas is being proactive about the mortuary trailers.

19. Yes. I posted that one too.

20. Abbott is lying, just like he was about pulling school administrators salaries.

All he does is lie and kill for partisan and his own political purposes. He hates the people of TX and is just in it to maximize the profits of the rich and get paid off himself, of course.
