Random Wednesday Morning Thoughts




TEXAS, MY TEXAS!: I DON'T BELIEVE WHAT I JUST SAW!


  • I don't think people fully realize what happened last night:
    • Gov. Greg Abbott - Gone

    • Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick - Gone

    • There is a new Democratic Attorney General ("MAGA" Mayes Middleton lost)
    • There is a new Democratic Land Commissioner
    • There is a new Democratic Comptroller
    • There is a new Democratic Agriculture Commissioner
    • There is a new New Democratic Railroad Commissioner (Bo French got blown out. )

    • All four Republican Supreme Court Judges up for re-election - Gone


    • Three Texas Court of Criminal Appeals judge positions: All Republicans gone. 
  • And maybe the biggest shocker at all: Democrats will now control the House in the Texas Legislature. (This graphic is unofficial.)


    • Wise County (and parts of Denton County) sent Rep. Any Hopper back to the statehouse. But if the guy can't even get a simple water bill passed when Republicans controlled Austin, he might as well not leave his office in the upcoming legislative session.

       
  • My prediction was wrong. Kalshi was right. Texas elected a Democratic U.S. Senator for the first time since Lloyd Bentsen.

  • Tarrant County was a complete Democratic sweep:
    • County Judge Time O'Hare - Gone

    • District Attorney Phil Sorrells - Gone

    • Longtime Republican District Clerk Tom Wilder - Gone
    • The Republican County Clerk - Gone
    • Every Republican district judge who had an opponent - Gone
    • Every Republican county court judge who had an opponent - Gone
  • And I haven't even mentioned Congress yet!
    • The House

    • The Senate

  • LOL.


  • And this finally came true. If the normal and conservative Republicans don't rid themselves of the MAGA crazies, they may never win again.  


     
  • It's amazing what, in less than two years, a needless Iran war, needless tariffs, and a cartoon character in the White House who lies to the American people every time he opens his mouth will do.
