I'm not a person from TX but lived there or had my spouse living there for nearly a decade. It was chill and cool, but we also lived in a majority Hispanic blue city followed by a different city where we were just a few miles from a major university.

Basically, Texas is too big to generalize. Tiny towns in TX can be pretty sad or sketchy.

Cities are a whole different planet from the rest of Texas.

Yeah our experience was largely decent sized cities or middle of nowhere nature/park/camping.

My spouse went to some proper reddneck middle of nowhere towns for work where people were pretty open about suspect beliefs.

How can you tell the difference between Texas Republicans and Texas Democrats? A Republican will tell you they just don't want the brown people around. A Democrat will tell you they don't want them around because it might harm their property values.

That explains the failure to act on Flint water lead levels. Current studies say lead exposure during childhood can carry on for up to 40 years.

Why can't we have both? Dolores with a LeMat revolver?

I learned about LeMats from a Clive Cussler book where Dirk Pitt uses one to save his congresswoman girlfriend from an evil Asian brainwashing boat with the help of some civil war reenactors aboard a steam-powered riverboat

it was dumb as fuuuuuuuck.

Roy Godson (a former NSC consultant) had a hot mic as they closed out the session, and said "That was good. Almost too good." in regards to the hearing.

Take that as you will, but between him and Watts, that was incredibly informative.

I honestly have high hopes for the Senate Intel committee. Every indication is that they're going to take 6-8 months, interview people properly, and politics aren't really a factor. The Republican/Democratic ranking members have already said a lot of kumbaya stuff, though Burr is still a generic Republican douche about ducking some talking points.

Also Justin Amash is a libertarian douche, but he's consistent and hates Donnie, so enjoy: https://twitter.com/BraddJaffy/status/847488739521609730
