re: 47 stumping in Harris County can't be good news for Paxton Talarico is terrible but leadin
Posted by texas tortilla on 8/28/26 at 8:33 am to ljhog
saw a paxton attack ad. blasting talarico for allowing china to buy up texas land. something like 186,000 acres. i thought it was pretty weak sauce. if that's all paxton has then it ain't looking good.
re: Are there any voters here who don't vote strictly by party?

my republican state rep in texas voted to impeach ken paxton a few years ago. haven't voted for him since. i just leave that race vacant. to avoid blowback, the weasel donated 10k to paxtons campaign and said he was sorry. he is a typical republican in the texas house. worthless. gary gates his name.

If tweet fails to load, click here. don't know if this tweet is real or not but ukraine is about to collapse. that is probably why the cia director went to moscow. to try and get a ceasefire. bottom line is ukraine believed the cia BS that life would be great if they joined the west. all the cia really wanted to do was use them to poke the russian bear. so we have another CIA destroyed country.re: Belgium / France / Luxembourg World War Trip - August

He is going to eat a loss in Iran. A war he never should have started. Next, he will eat a loss in Ukraine which is about to collapse. He should have walked away giving Biden the blame. Now he owns it. I think people will be glad when he is gone.

Is the ICE internal affairs investigation still ongoing? Has he been fired from ICE for this event? If ICE did an investigation and the claims are confirmed, I would expect Abbott to send him back. Maybe that is what Abbott is waiting on.....I looked it up, ICE has not yet issued a formal final conclusion of the event. Is he on paid/unpaid administrative leave pending outcome of investigation?

Whatever was said today, had to be done in person. Must be very very serious. I wonder if Russia caught the usa doing something and they demanded an in person explanation. I get the feeling russia is very pissed.

re: These economic “d-day” sanctions on Iran will fail.
Posted by texas tortilla on 8/25/26 at 7:52 am to T1gerNate
paul craig roberts said yesterday that this economic d-day sanctions was a way for trump to transition the military war with iran to an economic war with iran. this would allow trump to exit the war and declare victory. when the value of the iran currency to the dollar is like 2.5 million to one, it's easy to declare victory.

re: "My daughter didn't join the Navy to be on a ship."
Posted by texas tortilla on 8/25/26 at 7:06 am to LSUDVM1999
remember back when people joined the national guard because they thought it was only weekend duty and 2 weeks during the summer. paid well. then they wound up in iraq. i recall people saying, i didn't sign up for this. no, they shouldn't complain because they signed up. nobody forced them. but the iran war has revealed that the navy has some serious problems. they don't have enough ships in working order or crews to man those ships. taking a carrier from the pacific to replace one that has been at sea too long is a problem. especially if it leaves the pacific without one. ships in the middle east had been supplied by the naval base in bahrain. except it was destroyed. supplies now had to come from diego garcia, 2000 miles away. it doesn't look to me like hegseth and the pentagon thought all this through when they started a war they thought would be over in a week.

LINK london and Edinburgh would make a great trip. Edinburgh castle is great. The link is for seat61, providing info for trains from London kings cross to Edinburgh. There are some good fares for a family of 4. If you go to Edinburgh be sure and go up to st andrews.

re: Sec. Bessent warns Iran’s global partners to cut ties or face ‘Operation Economic Outcast'
Posted by texas tortilla on 8/24/26 at 4:01 pm to ragincajun03
This is how trump gets out of the iran war. Move it from a military war to an economic war. Then declare victory. We are going to destroy them with operation economic outcast. A lot of fanfare with this announcement was the giveaway.

Republican senate candidate in Michigan asked AIPAC not to donate to his campaign. Israel will be an issue hurting republicans. Trumps iran war hurt MAGA. I don't see any reason to go vote for Republicans yet democrats offer nothing. Winner will be who can get their voters out. It will be close either way.
re: Do you think it's right for Law Enforcement to have Unmarked Cars?
Posted by texas tortilla on 8/24/26 at 6:04 am to TheMagicMan
i remember driving on the IH10 bridge between lafayette and baton rouge. there was an old chevy impala stationwagon parked on the side. when i passed by, i saw the louisiana state police marking on the side. it was marked but never suspected LHP running traffic in an old beater stationwagon.
