The Texas GOP Has gone COMPLETELY Off The Rails With Their 2020 Platform.
Texas' GOP just took a hard-right turn. Their FULL platform is racist, misogynistic, xenophobic, anti-environment, anti-civil rights, anti-voting rights, and every other evil idea Rush Limbaugh or Alex Jones ever came up with. It's certifiably insane.

Portland? Kidnappings by the FED?
Can someone help me understand the situation in Portland? I've read several articles, but can't find the answers I'm looking for.
The word is that the unidentified officers in Portland picking people off of the street are Homeland Security. But, if they aren't identifying themselves, how is this known?
Also, the few people they have picked up off of the street... Have they been released yet? I read no one knows where they were being held, but that was a few days ago.
Does anyone know?

Republican Party of Texas leaders opt for virtual convention after loss at state Supreme Court
This is going to be hilarious! Imagine all of those GOPers interrupting speakers because they can't figure out what button to press. And if they are all muted, there will be a revolt.
I, for one, am looking forward to this entertaining train wreck.

For Fractures in the Texas GOP, Look no Further than the Executive Committee
The TX GOP Executive Committee held an emergency meeting Saturday night. It was over 3 hours long and full of childish bickering. The biggest takeaway from this meeting was that they need to have an in-person convention because online technology is too difficult for the GOP delegates to understand. Seriously.
