Texas is preparing emergency resources for wildfires and floods. The Texas National Guard should be THERE — not in Illinois.

We stand ready to support their return home so they are best positioned for helping Texans respond to any natural disasters.

Abbott activates emergency resources ahead of growing wildfire threat, flood risk in Texas

With expected growing wildfire danger across Texas and the potential for a flood risk this weekend, Gov. Greg Abbott is activating more state emergency response resources Friday.

Trump's dementia is so bad that he does not remember that he was President on January 6, 2021 and watched the insurrectionists he invited to violence. President Trump watched his Proud Boys, Oathkeepers that he arranged to attack the Capitol Building to keep Congress from certifying electoral votes

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

Machado Wins the Nobel. Americans Make It About US Identity Politics.

Her win shines a light on authoritarianism in Venezuela — and on the USA’s inability to see beyond its own partisan battles.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Trump sold out the US to the Quatari for a resort in Quatar and a jet. Treason of the highest order. Has he finally crossed a line or will they keep protecting him ?
