The electoral college was not put in the Constitution to make sure candidates campaigned in small states. That's a lie you were taught in school. It doesn't even make sense.
The electoral college was put in the Constitution to protect slavery.

This shouldnโt happen in a country like this. In a state like this. But it happens because we leave governance in the hands of people who donโt think very long and hard past their own beliefs and desires to stay in power rather than the greater good.

Another dead woman.
Josseli Barnica was killed by the abortion ban in Texas, denied miscarriage care because her fetus still had a heartbeat.
They are killing us.

โThis is my familyโs thirteenth year in HISD. While I have always voted for school bonds, Iโm voting no because bonds require community trust. Under Superintendent Mike Miles, that trust has been broken.โ

COLLINS: What do you think Kamala Harris has to do to avoid a repeat of 2016?
HILLARY CLINTON: Well first of all I don't think she has Jim Comey in the wings waiting to kneecap her, so that's good.

This is not a campaign speech. It's a speech in front of a group of insurrectionist on January 6, 2021. The day of love.
This creature does not deserve to be a senator for the state of Texas.
Early Voting starts tomorrow, Monday, October 21

Politicians are gettinโ PAID by these testing companies.
They donโt care about results other than to show public schools are โfailing.โ
Thatโs why these tests are written 1.5-2 grade levels above the grade they are supposedly testing.
What a waste of taxpayer money.

The same fans who rooted for an Astros failure are the same fans that are now complaining about a potential Yankees-Dodgers World Series

Mets and Brewers turned Dodgers in for cheating. MLB chose to ignore it
Then dodgers acquired previous cheaters Mookie Betts and JD Martinez while hiring the video guy who helped them cheat.
Tell me more about their innocence and how astros cheated winning 2 games in LA

Well, when you put it like thatโฆ certainly seems like priorities for certain groups are very much in the wrong spot.
Make sure you vote for those with actual plans to improve the lives of many, not just attack and marginalize those who might be different or need a hand.

If Texas officials wanted to stop the arrival of undocumented immigrants, they could try to make it impossible for them to work here. But that would devastate the stateโs economy.
So instead politicians engage in border theater. texasmonthly.com/news-politiโฆ

Congrats to the Yankees for not having to play the Astros in the ALCS.
