wanted to share some good news...or rather reality-based news
"Other border state sheriffs who have come out against calls to help the Trump administration round up migrants include Val Verde County, Texas Sheriff Joe Frank Martinez and Brewster County, Texas Sheriff Ronny Dodson. According to Dodson, the incoming Trump administration giving sheriffs the authority to jail migrants could "break" county law enforcement."- RS
got a TC Dispatch this Thursday before XMAS. The word Christmas appeared nowhere. Is the Chair and ED atheist or was some discussion had by the EC? Are we not Christian, us Tarrant Ds? and if not Christian are not most of us of some religious faith?. You'd better bet Bo French ,Chair of the Tarrant R's will have a field day.
PS: The Chair and the ED did pat themselves on the back for attending a meeting . Nothing about Jesus or Mohammed though.
FWST writes about Cruz's comment on Elon wanting to scrap the F-35. They DO NOT ASK Craig Goldman, the Congressman for Lockheed anything. I assume they want to LATIMES him....IOW not asking him anything that contradicts Elon/MAGA .
got an email from the journalist who wrote the story .......she did quote Goldman in the Nov, 29th update of the Nov. 26th story..
but no comment from Goldman in the the 3 later, more seriously focused articles. Goldman, like Granger before him , is the Congressman for Lockheed. His voice is important. And it would be good to get him on record opposing Musk. This is, like, thing political parties do! Antagonize local press so they cover the story......
don't LATIMES the FWST......not a catchy slogan i concede.
used and abused.....they have ur donation, they have ur contact info......please let us know which pols or pol orgs send an XMAS greeting
got one from TAMU......... but not my alma mater TCU
never from the county party or any elected, or unelected pols in Tarrant or Texas
ActBlue turned my name over so hundreds of national pols contacted me thru 2024...just no Tarrant D's
how do they know if i might donate without asking?
My lawn-care guy, likely to be deported , gives me a card....nothing from Beto or Biden or Harris or , i already forgot him........Seante candidate Dallas......
I think there is something quit wrong with us....we simply have no interest in talking to each other till election season
If i were a County Chair i would be hosting mixer's all year long. Most Counties have fundraisers where they don't invite everybody...they don't invite even half of everybody..they don't invite half of the half..........but months later they ask for ur loyalty......
i might......next election 1-1/2 years away...next 'selection' ? who knows. Gayden was some friend of an EC and not even an active Dem. I would guess if it came to another 'selection' , like Gayden or the plesant but politically unskilled Alyson, they would chose someone else without any political but more importantly sales and marketing chops.
i have encouraged a few HDC's and the entireity of Tarrant Young Dems to be ready to run.........
If anyone knows anyone .....the job is mostly sales and mktg and u get $300k to play around with. It needs to be more than a hobby.
I guess I am glad that Dems will at least be alerted to the fact that there is a race and the basic argument for not supporting Burrows at such an early stage. Sad it had to be a faction of the GOP lol.
to the chicken providers to the 11 Tyson's Foods plant in Texas . I am sure u know about this...Thing is no Texan or consumer does.
"Tyson Foods fights to silence debt-stricken farmers after slashing contracts"
RS
the short story...egg farmers borrow money to set up facilities to provide eggs to Tyson. Around $2 M. Tyson is now selling its plants to a competitor , killing the the farmers business. Tyson put them out of business and now won't let them sell to the new plant owners.
comments from David Hogg...Parkland shooting survivor and gun safety activits. Others are complaining ...where are the Dems.......and remind us of the meeting Barrack's inaugartion nite plotting the R comeback....Wheres Kamala, where's nancy.
Locally the only thing i heard after a Tarrant blowout is one email form our chair was one 'atta boy' and mutilple invites to our Feb. fund rasiser
TDP.....zip, nada , zilch
something is rotten in the Dem Party
David Hogg;
“Throughout the campaign, there were multiple times where I brought up publicly my concerns about young voters, and I was shut down by consultants and messaged by them saying, ‘You don’t know what you are talking about. This is not an issue. This is dumb of you to say,’ and a whole lot of other things that I can’t tell you on TV…"
a little more from elon city........turns out there is more than one
"Elon Musk has been carving out his own “utopia” in Texas for years.
From Brownsville to Bastrop, the world’s richest and most unserious man has laid his claim on the Lone Star State—and now, he is petitioning the local government for the right to make it official."
to further depress u...FWST has an article with Abbott featured talking about Bell $637M plant to be built in FTW. Thing is Abbott had nothing to do with it. The Bell contract was awarded in 2022.

nothing of importance other than it shows Abbott has his lips firmly attached to Elon's anus.
Crockett and Bowie would be ashamed of modern day TexElonia

update: Colin Allred is the Dallas Senate dude...its unclear if he ever came to FTW.....
He came to Arlington for a small, invite-only event. That's when I met him.
Maybe you should run for county chair.

Thank you ! Perfect …was Looking for examples to alert my friends to Republican bullshit …will share
We have been like deer in the headlights re their lying sleezebag tactics

is this just the ante to make a splash or do these dudes want to make Texas reder,,,,,,like CCCP red.......
An emerging Texas megadonor just pledged $20 million to “expand a true Republican majority”
or maybe he wants to be able to drill without hinderance whilst texasns drink poison
"Texas regulators report more than 250 new cases of groundwater contamination"
i get why Bell would expand but why would any tech or financial services company want to move to Texelonia- to kill their employees?
