Quote of the Day

“The lies these days are moving at the speed of light while spreading so much darkness. Take, for example, the uproar over this New York Post story that claimed that copies of a children’s book written by Vice President Kamala Harris were being given to migrant kids in their welcome kits. That tale from the border didn’t just border on B.S., this was USDA, grade A bullshit. And the reporter who wrote this story resigned, claiming she was forced to make it up, but the damage was done, pumped out over the airwaves at the bullshit factory known as Fox News.”

— Jim Acosta, on CNN.

That puts me in the position of having to vote for a repubicon for the first time in my life in the runoff.. Ellzey is a typical reactionary, but Wright is pure trumpian holy roller nightmare. The Dems totally blew this race. Out of 23 candidates, they ran 10, and I don't think the national party helped at all. They had an outside chance to flip the seat; the part of Tarrant county gerrymandered into the district is heavily blue, and the rest of the district, with some effort, could be shown what a nutcase wright is.
