Texas Republicans are treating elected officials like they are slaves that managed to escape Texas in 1859.
mmmmmmm you can just smell democracy boiling off into a nice fascist reduction
Nothing is going to change until some of these bad people no longer get the chance to wake up
Fascism was never, ever put down using words.
So, Texas congresspeople aren’t free to travel out of the state?
I knew I’ve seen this one before: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/oregon-republicans-flee-facing-fines-state-police-chasing-democrats-demand-n1020571
They hate having their own playbook used against them.
Lmao Oregon has laws making it so they can’t run again when they do that though.
The Oregon voters passed that ballot measure (by almost 70%) after the republicans in their legislature did this repeatedly. They’ve pulled this same schtick 6 times since 2019.
Only big government when it helps people
Sounds like a call to real Americans to provide quarter to these patriotic Democrats from the fascists that are after them.
