"The Easter Bunny is Species-Fluid" Funnies

Easter Egg Wrangle


Click the tweet for the full view.


Greg "Abbott is The Crisis" decided -- in what he believes was a demonstration of his foreign policy skilz -- to resolve himself after the week of domestic terrorism he inflicted on the nation's economy.  Let's survey the damage.


No shortage of disaster-related adjectives.  There remains, astonishingly, some question as to whether Governor Helen Wheels will pay a political price.


After everything that's happened this year (the erosion of women's rights, voting rights, LGBTQ rights, children's reading rights, etc. ad nauseum) that Texas businesses large and small have voiced both loud and mumbled objection to, on which side of the fence will Lone Star corporate leaders and their PACs be dumping fertilizer?  We all know that ATT hasn't changed their plans.

Sidebar: after I kicked Kuffner in the shins for lazy-ass blogging, he came back with a respectable post.  Although "I'm at a loss here" and "I don't know what else to say" is more of his -- and Texas' and all Democrats' -- by-now-predictable weakness in confronting fascism, "it's a start" (another of his go-to tropes).

I'm not through with ASStax Abbott yet.


Okay, that's enough for today.  It's a holiday weekend, after all.  Let's turn to some other dumbasses in the news.


The seditionist calls are coming from inside the House (and Senate).  And apparently the Democrats on the January 6th committee are just too scared to do anything about it.


Not a good look for the Texas Central folks when the project still has public disapproval in the Republican hinterlands to overcome.  Maybe they can join the chorus of whining on the Right about onerous property tax burdens and garner some sympathy.


A commercial threat by Mr. Tesla that slipped under the radar this week, what with all of his -- and everybody else's -- histrionics.


Fucking W Bush.


Tempted to go with a Kuffner quote, but I'll pass.


The southern border, as we should all know by now, is not being invaded.  The people who are seeking asylum there are fleeing for their lives.

Here are your organizing/action items.


One calm-me-down.

The Political Stunt Express Wrangle from Far Left Texas


Let's do a duopoly politics update.  We have to start with Governor Border Crisis, because he's all the rage this week.


As has been the case for the past 25 years, the Republican goober's Democratic opponent is failing to capitalize on the mistakes and meanness of the incumbent.


Beto and his people are useless.  "Touring an empty warehouse" -- that'll really draw the cameras -- while Abbott bused asylum-seekers halfway across the country for a publicity ruse after creating miles-long truck traffic jams at border entries, aggravating the nation's inflation crisis.  The man in the wheelchair has yuge Trump energy.  (Clue: This is how you do it.  I predict a staff shakeup soon.)

Here's a polling round-up.  I see that Chuckles hasn't gotten to them yet, probably because he's busy with those community college candidate interviews and bicycle trail updates and scolding the media for noting Ted Cruz's latest culture skirmish.


BTW, regarding Cuellar...


Hidalgo is pushing back defiantly against the charges leveled against her staff.  (One more example for O'Rourke in how to fight back.)


But she and all the rest of Team Blue have enormous headwinds.


Not the least of which is Joe Biden's albatross around their necks.

One more thing before moving on: the story of Pee Bush's -- and by extension his family's -- pending political demise is officially overtold.  These fetishes by the state's media are reminiscent of the way they fawned over Matthew McConaughey last year, and before him the Castro brothers for numerous cycles.  Get over yourselves, starfuckers.  Even Texas Republicans don't care about the Bushes any more.  Once he's defeated, we'd all like to see you write about the people who are running for office who aren't corrupt, or pandering, or demonstrably ignorant and stupid.


Here's the environmental news.


And as typical, a lot of social injustice developments.  Guns up first.


I am in dire need of some pleasantry.
