So we fired hundreds of thousands of competent civil servants, including highly specialized scientists and doctors, and hired these stupid fucking losers?
Awesome. Glad that waste, fraud, and abuse is gone I guess.
If it was a woke trans commie, it happened. If it was a Trump voter, well sorry to say but those dead kids are what we call “crisis actors”. - basically the mindset of every Trump voter.
A couple weeks ago here in TX we voted on 17 state constitutional amendments. I want to say 12-13 of those were some form of tax cut for the wealthy. I voted against all of them but they all passed. And they passed big, like 60-70% to 40-30%.
The wording they used to describe the amendments was very much skewed to make them sound wonderful. No negatives, only positives. For instance, something like this may have had the wording “more money for schools”.
On its face it seems like a good idea - fewer taxes for me, more money for schools - what could go wrong? I assume most folks just looked at it said “ok” without much additional thought.
It’s very frustrating to basically have the large majority of voters approve this, giving the state government reassurance that they can do whatever they want, when it’s an obvious lie.
Nothing they do is to help the “regular” people of Texas. It’s all tax breaks for businesses and the super wealthy and Christian Nationalism disguised as “parental choice”.
These people describe themselves as pro life. FUCK OFF.
