She got a seat at the table! This is great IMO. People that truly stood up to the tyranny now having a chance to take it head on!

She's a hero. I wish she had beaten Drew Springer a couple of years ago, but this is still great news, especially after they struggles she's had.

She isn't DC yet. This was a TX seat. It is a great start though!

Too bad our AG didn't protect her from unconstitutional oversteps in the first place.

He did. He can't unilaterally overrule a sitting judge. Her conviction was voided by Texas SC

In retrospect it's sad there weren't many more Texans like her during Covid.

We can NEVER forget that dark time in our country.

Now looking back, IMO the revved up nature of halting our economy from the Fed directives was to stop the Trump economy and successes. There was enough uncertainty that Abbot & Co had to somewhat go along with it.

Still unbelievable how that went.

IF there wasn't so much turned upside down right now due to the F-in Dems, I would love to get to the bottom of it all, starting with Fauci. We just don't have time.
Pretty sure most of you don’t know me.

I meant in telling Abbott "Hey, broseph...you don't have the power to do that." . Protecting us from the initial idiocy of usurped, unconstitutional power.

Good for her. Everybody forgot about covid by the time the 2022 midterms came around. I was hoping somebody would primary Abbott, but by then it was all water under the bridge. He loved being a little tyrant, and it would have been way worse except for Desantis stepping out and leading. He had to keep up with Desantis.

I think most Texans lived in places without fascists in charge, so they didn't have to resist. I didn't miss a single day of work.

People in the metroplex were not so fortunate.
