Late hours, extreme fatigue, frayed nerves, the old push me/pull you between the far right and the freak right is worth a laugh.

We understood a long while ago that Kremlin Toad Cruz was not human; there's just no need for him to keep proving it. He can't help himself.
“Pansy” has long been a gay slur, and the junior senator from Texas has repeatedly and unapologetically invoked the term in the past week. https://t.co/q9Ovm9JwVb

Every single time he tweets, he is savaged. But it's interpreted by him, and his lickspittles, as "triggering/owning the libs". It IS a game, we're all playing it, he thinks he's winning.
Apropos of nothing except more of our TXGOP leadership behaving badly ... are Angela and Ken Paxton in an open marriage?

She's working long, late hours under Dan Patrick's tutelege while he's ... doing whatever this is. The AGTX was previously reported as flinging with a woman whom he referred to one of his rich contributors for a job, which became more grist for his corruption mill. "Recommitted to his marriage", as the link from six months ago says, does not seem reflected in these photos.
That's enough mockery at these clowns' expense.
I now return you to your regular "Republicans Behaving Badly" programming. Back under the Pink Dome, as Sine Die bears down ...

In response to February’s massive electricity outages, Texas lawmakers are considering legislation that would add charges to most Texans’ power bills to cover companies’ financial losses during the winter storm. Here’s the latest: https://t.co/pD2niHf5mp

"Oh by the way, we have openings for unpaid internships for the special session. Please have your young, attractive daughters and nieces apply now."

#txlege continues to advance bills, like this one, from the Project Blitz playbook.

The #txlege response to the murder of George Floyd and national reckoning over racism:
— Bob Libal (@blibal) May 26, 2021
— further criminalize poor people
— outlaw local criminal justice reforms
— give police officers and police unions more power and resources
— lock people up for longer pre-trial https://t.co/aF95Vzrr4Y
I suppose I'll stop there, though I could post some more. Maybe later; it's early and our representatives and senators are still asleep. Mostly.
Oh hell, here's a few more petty pairings.
In announcing his request for @HUDgov to directly send Harris County $750M for flood mitigation, @georgepbush blamed the situation on “red tape requirements” from the Biden administration. But the delays he later referenced came under Trump. #txlege https://t.co/GVQu8lKrPd

Still more to come. My ever-lengthening environmental post, a collation of "cruelty is the point" of this legislative session and a few others. Just feel the need for some cleansers right now.
