Tired!

We rode today, it was not a fun ride.  Both of us are tired, I think we're due for a complete and total news blackout.  Reading about Steve Bannon talking about the republicans taking the house in 2022, and then impeaching Biden for stealing the election just put me over the edge.  

Anyway, there was this on twitter which was funny.  Despite what Cruz originally said about escorting his kids to Mexico, it turned out that his wife planned the whole trip using a group text.  At least one person on the text list sent a copy to the NYT.  Karma, you know.

Remember him from January 6?

The Texas disaster continues to unfold.  It's warming up, so now all of the previously frozen pipes will begin leaking.  It's going to be bad for awhile.  AOC, who was initially blamed for the power outages, has raised money for relief efforts and is going there with cash.  Ted Cruz went to Cancun and lied about it. 

That's it!  That's all I've got.

  2. the plumbers here are overwhelmed and the shelves of plumbing supplies everywhere are empty. and that fucker Rafael. and all our politicians trashing her for their own lack of preparation and care while she's the one raising money and bringing food and water and other help. and fucking Rick Perry with his Texans are happy to suffer a little freezing weather to keep regulations our of the state while if we had had regulations this whole thing wouldn't have happened. you think those people whose kids died were happy to suffer so the rich bastards could get richer? and now many Texans are faced with $8,000 - $10,000 heating bills. as one energy official said, they hit the jackpot.

  3. I hadn't heard the Bannon thing, but it doesn't surprise me. The man is poison. I just hope people remember all this when Cruz comes up for re-election in far-off 2024!

  5. Last I saw, AOC had used her platform to raise $4 million for relief efforts in Texas, and she was on the ground herself, doing the work. Cruz has no idea how to be that kind of public servant, he is in politics for his own aggrandizement. Texas deserves better.
