And anyone want to hazard a guess on the odds of whether they'll approve funding in the future given which party that currently controls all three branches of the Texas government? And they want to do a mid-term redistricting to further gerrymander the state.

Couldn’t spend the money because the Biden administration gave it to them. Didn’t send the money back because it might have gone to a blue state. Drowning your children to own the libs.

No surprise there. Gov. Greg Abbott is a truly evil person. Almost every decision that comes from his office brings pain to his constituents. And to what end? It seems he likes to watch people suffer.

Did you read about the volunteer firefighter that requested a CodeRed alert and it took 90 minutes before it was sent out? Utterly mind boggling. www.ksat.com/news/local/2...

Isn't it better to let children die than to succumb to Big Flood Alarm? Flood alarms are just how libtards stay safe during dangerous weather. They probably cause autism - you don't know.

It is beyond comprehension...yet it is totally believable. Texas has shown again and again it's not nor ever has been about the people. It's about the $. If we had a Dem POTUS who acted like Drump does; he'd be cutting off Federal $ to TX to '...teach them a lesson...'
