Encontrar una mujer hermosa, buena onda, no interesada, con buen corazon es mas dificil que pegarle a la loteria. No imposible, pero cabron—finding a beautiful, cool, non-self-interested, kind-hearted woman is harder than winning the lottery. Not impossible, but it's a bitch to do.
At this point, the share of midterm primary ballots from Democrats is 53%. Republicans account for the other 47%. This shows a major difference just from 2022, when 38% of ballots at this point were from Democrats, and 62% were from Republicans. What a shift from where we were four years ago.
CBS's attorneys told the broadcaster to pull the interview after Trump's FCC argued that late-night-show interviews of political candidates from one party but not the other violate federal regulations. The network allegedly advised the host that he shouldn't even discuss on-air that it had put the kibosh on the interview. Colbert wasn't amused. Not only did he proceed to talk about it on the air; he interviewed Talarico and posted it on YouTube, where, within two days, the clip had garnered some 7.8 million views.
He'd noticed that a local member of the state legislature, Mike Lang, had become a vocal advocate for using public money for private schools despite the fact that Lang campaigned as a supporter of public education. With a little research, Tackett found that Lang had received hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign donations from the Wilks brothers and Tim Dunn, billionaire megadonors whose deep pockets and Christian nationalist views have consumed the Texas GOP.

A senior Texas A&M University System official testing a new artificial intelligence tool this fall asked it to find how many courses discuss feminism at one of its regional universities. Each time she asked in a slightly different way, she got a different number. "Either the tool is learning from my previous queries," Texas A&M system's chief strategy officer Korry Castillo told colleagues in an email, "or we need to fine tune our requests to get the best results."
Such a lack of LOYALTY, something that Texas Voters, and Henry's daughters, will not like. Oh' well, next time, no more Mr. Nice guy!
A federal court struck down Texas' new gerrymander on Tuesday, in an extraordinary rebuke to Republicans who sought to hand the GOP five additional seats in the House of Representatives. The 160-page ruling -authored by Judge Jeffrey V. Brown, a conservative Donald Trump nominee-scorched the scheme as an unconstitutional racial gerrymander, declaring that the Legislature "intentionally drew district lines" to discriminate against Black and Hispanic Texans.
A rainbow crosswalk and a street mural declaring "Black Artists Matter" in Austin, Texas, are in danger of being removed after the state's governor Greg Abbott ordered the Texan transportation department to enforce a directive from President Donald Trump to remove political and artistic road murals. Critics say the governor and the president are using roadway safety regulations to target art expressing support for LGBTQ+ and anti-racism causes as the Trump administration continues its suppression of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.
Allred's proposal to "clean up Washington" is a 12-point anti-corruption plan that includes other populist priorities like ending gerrymandering, barring corporate PACs and a lifetime lobbying ban for lawmakers. The former congressman has personally pledged to refrain from trading individual stocks, to refuse corporate PAC money and to adhere to a lifetime lobbying ban.
