for a moment, ignore the fact that Phelan went after a political opponent, Paxton (they should be allies), and ignore for a second that Phelan gave committee chairs to Dems rather than Rs (in the name of reaching across the aisle). When in fact he wouldn’t have been Speaker without Dem help, so it was more likely a quid pro quo…. Just ignore those glaring flaws for a moment.
if you showed up to your job after a lunch break in this condition, would you still have your job?
no you wouldn’t, and the people of his district need to fire him too

This is a really good video, if we don’t fix this problem Texas will go the way of many other states.

I have no idea who, or what, y’all are talking about…but I’m not crazy about the negative connotation in this statement…
