Tom Mechler steps down as Texas GOP chairman

A snip from link------Mechler did not recommend a successor, who will be chosen by the State Republican Executive Committee at its quarterly meeting June 3.

But he said that he hoped they would select a candidate who shares his goal to make “our party look more like Texas.”

“We live in a diverse state,” Mechler wrote. “As the demographics continue to change, our state will soon have a majority-minority voting age population. If we do not continue to make efforts to engage in the diverse communities across Texas, our state will turn blue. This is no longer just a possibility, it is an inevitable reality if we fail to act.”

“Over the past two years, engagement has been my biggest passion. We’ve taken unprecedented strides, and we’ve generated remarkable results,” Mechler wrote. “As the SREC selects who will serve as your next state chairman, I encourage them to find someone with this same passion. If we do not engage in the diverse communities across Texas, we will lose the state, then the nation, and there may be no coming back.”

Did Comey ask for more funding or not?

Comey had pushed for more resources for Russia probe before being fired by Trump: source

Rosenstein: No evidence Comey asked for more resources for Russia probe

This is confusing and Comey has not been 100% scandal free.. Anyone have any ideas what is going on?

Trump is a Russia asset

This is reality now, republicans are still hanging with him and want an investigation into the whistle blowers.
