As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous.

Forcing elected officials to sign β€œpermission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

Republicans: we have REAL problems like children shitting in litter boxes like cats. That's why we introduced the FURRIES Act.

Once again, Republicans solving problems that don't exist while ignoring actual problems.

Texas has nothing better to do than ban imaginary litter boxes in classrooms
YouTube video by TizzyEnt Texas has nothing better to do than ban imaginary litter boxes in classrooms

Does Texas GOP really have nothing better to do than harp on a four year old fabricated story about furries and kids using litter boxes in classrooms?

There are real problems happening right now that need their utmost attention, and this is what they are taking up time doing.

The Trump administration literally just cut the contract for ongoing audits of the Prison Rape Elimination Act, the extremely bipartisan law (unanimously passed in 2003) that requires jails and prisons to take rape seriously and adopt policies designed to make it less likely to happen.

We've seen videos like this before, but usually when you see a tearful wife pleading with the kidnappers who have taken her husband, she's not talking to the U.S. president

DOJ provides no new information on Abrego Garcia but says if he manages to return to the US, they'll detain him and remove him to a different country (not El Salvador) or seek to "terminate" his order of removal and send him back to El Salvador. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
