Pratt on Texas

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: The racism and discrimination institutionalized by Democrats into our government and culture must stop. Publicly-funded racism in Texas is still racism is a good piece by Steve Rowe at TPPF.
Also, this story gives a strong background on drawing political districts using race. The story includes the key information about the change in precedent in the 5th Circuit in “minority coalition” districts that I have told you has a big effect on Texas redistricting: Supremes to consider legality of race-based districts in possible boon to GOP redistricting effort.
Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.

Senator Cornyn joins in on the largely hollow chest thumping with his headline getter that the FBI will help with the AWOL Texas Democrats. The problem is not that we don’t know where they are, the problem is that we cannot arrest them and return them to the Capitol outside of Texas’ borders. I hate to admit it, but that fat Illinois Leftist governor is right.
