To Texas Rep. Brian Harrison’s tiny credit, he did want to rein this in before this election. But MAGA realizing the dictator machine they’ve built has fallen into enemy hands is my favorite melt of the day.

quote:

We still have total power in Texas, and we must act like it by using the remaining ten weeks to restore separation of powers and limit the emergency powers that Governor-Elect Hinojosa is set to inherit, which would allow her to destroy liberty in Texas by executive fiat . . . . Without action, Governor Hinojosa will inherit the powers of a DICTATOR.

Imagine waiting until you lose an election to try and do something like this.

I can’t imagine what turned the average voter against the GOP. Must’ve been propaganda

Stupid. TX has a very weak governor. The Lt.governor arguably wields more power. Of course we lost that race, too, so there’s that.

Texas governor is actually pretty weak overall. Lt. Gov is arguably a bigger deal.

Dont matter because they all went blue but it should be noted.

So they used to be cool with dictators back on Monday, but now it's not?

And state senators want Abbott to call a special session to elect a senate majority leader and strip Goodwin of Patrick's power.

They are the sorest of losers. I don't think Abbot complies though.

Well they need their nipples twisted to get off their arse apparently. Like a lot of people apparently do.

This election will do that for both Georgia and Texas.

Isnt the same as a dictator. The hyperbole is no better here than when they call Trump “literally Hitler”.

We’re going to get a massive dose of this. How’d they get elected?

That’s what 50 years of Bushes gets you.

These “republican” phonies fricked you. They’re globalists. They convinced these California based tech businesses to move there and they brought a bunch of California people and J1s to you. These people think Talarico is some the greatest thing since sliced bread. He caters to that delegation and that alone.

All the while, these “true conservatives” (oh how I loathe that phrase), “principled conservatives” (who loathe Trump and his base), and MAGA itself failed to listen to and address the legitimate concerns of native Texans and frankly the oil and gas energy so they could attract all this “commerce.”

The whole of Texas culture was rejected by their new Americans and their new Texans, and they never will embrace it. They’re pussies and they’re communists and they think Austin and Texas are the same thing. Meanwhile, actual Texans are fricking furious with the Republican Party- so they punished it.
