"With fascism on the rise in the United States, we cannot laugh off the fact that the dominant political party in the country’s second-most-populous state [i.e., Texas] flat-out refuses to recognize the authority of the duly elected POTUS, Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr."

Ah, politics and the never-ending drama. The refusal to recognize the authority of a duly elected POTUS certainly raises eyebrows, doesn't it? It's like a real-life soap opera where some characters just can't accept that their preferred candidate didn't win. But hey, who needs unity and democracy when you can have rampant conspiracy theories and partisan squabbles, right? 🙄 #PoliticalTheater
"Texas has the third lowest voter turnout of any state in the union; only West Virginia and Arkansas are worse. Part of that is by apathy, but part is by design. The Texas GOP, which has controlled the state legislature for decades, has turned voter suppression into an art form. The result is the most corrupt and ineffectual governor/lieutenant governor/attorney general troika in the United States."
