Honestly Rs shouldnt have to spend any money in Texas. That just pulls money from other races where its needed.

I remember McConnel spending money in Ohio after Trump.won it in 16 and 20 and we all thought that was dumb

Cornyn out spent Paxton 9 to 1 and lost.

re: Venezuelan Deal Numbers

You really need to read up on It.

The core upside of the U.S.-Venezuela oil deal is that it grants the United States majority control over 65 billion barrels of proven oil reserves, effectively doubling America's oil security at no cost to U.S. taxpayers.

It'll help SPR and help with military.

Venezuelan oil is the kind that US Gulf Coast refineries were built to refine. Those are Chevron’s Pascagoula plant in Mississippi, Valero’s Port Arthur, Corpus Christi and St. Charles facilities, Phillips 66’s Sweeny and Lake Charles, Marathon’s Galveston Bay and Garyville, ExxonMobil’s Beaumont, Baytown and Baton Rouge, Motiva’s Port Arthur, and Citgo’s Lake Charles and Corpus Christi plants.

So there's potentially more good oaying jobs for those refineries.

Side note: the shadow fleet Russian bullshite would stop. Also puts more control over Chinas stakes there.

Rubio has been big on Western Hemisphere independence. .

There's a ton of good here.
How much money did Louisiana forfeit from BP oil spill money because they couldnt cone up with a plan to restore the coast?
At some point, we as a society have to stop making excuses for these sick people. Just do what needs to be done.

Luckily Jesus has mercy for all the children. Can't say as much for this lady.

This is what every body says about their predecessor. Doesn't matter the party.

They both want to spend spend spend just on their own priorities

That's society as a whole. We live in a time where nobody is ever wrong.

Some just hang on longer than others
Isn't it a primary?

So you are saying Democrats are cheating against their own now?
So many mad people out there thinking this is all actually true :lol:

Trump playing by the sane rules AS EVERY OTHER POLITICIAN.

More breaking news at 10pm

Wish they could sue Gov Honor Code for putting out a statewide mandate and then later saying "it was just a suggestion'.

Reminds me of the covid thread that got bumped a couple of days ago...but I think yall were on the other side of the argument then.


They found evidence that disputed their own charges. And they dropped them. Sounds like the system worked perfectly to me.

Farmland value has skyrocketed though. Louisiana avg is $3200 per acre. Richland parish has jumped to $20,000 per acre.

Just invite them over. Grill a pork butt. Make a gumbo. Something easy that will feed everybody. They'll stop by more than you think.

Trump personally got on the phone and helped close the deal.


You don't think this happens all the time.. with every POTUS?
Not sure about that. A quick Google search says the other bidders were Chinese backed mining rivals :lol:

The main difference between Hunter Biden’s foreign dealings and the Trump projects is that the Trumps are brazenly open about theirs.


One was a quid pro quo dealing with an investigation, and the others aren't.

I hate the fact politicians make bank, but they all do it.
