We all know the story of how Texas House Dems decided to flee to D.C. this past Monday to prevent a quorum from occurring. Lots of stuff on the agenda, but the Dems are convinced that new voting restrictions (perfectly normal to want to make sure that ONLY citizens vote) will be a problem for them.
And they're not wrong. It WILL be a problem for them because it lessens the opportunity for CHEATING.
So they turned tail and ran, flying out on two chartered jets - maskless, mind you - and so far have refused to come back. Gov. Abbott has promised to have them arrested when they return, and that's an action that the Texas House approved as well.
Whoops. Looks like a couple of these Dems tested positive for Covid.
This is why Texas can't have nice things anymore - especially since some jagoff put a case of rotgut Miller Lite in the bus on the way to the planes.
