 This is what real patriotism looks like.

When it comes to protecting our right to vote, all cards are on the table. We broke #quorum again today because the Gov & #txlege Repubs chose to bully Texans out of our constitutional rights instead of finding solutions to problems that really exist. #SuppressionSession #DemsOut twitter.com/TexasHDC/statu…

First they’re cowards. Second they’re not doing their job. Third they’re screwing their staff out of pay. Fourth, where are the MASKS?!

I guess we don’t have to worry about them anymore since they’re all going to die.

The lack of mask is a violation of TSA regs. Unsurprisingly, and not that I think the Bidenoids will bring consequences on them.

Looks to me like a bunch of people who walked off the job and flew to another state.

At my workplace, that would be deemed "resignation".

Gov. Abbott (sp?) should declare that if they are not butts-in-seats in the Texas legislative chamber by... I dunno... noon Wednesday 7/14, they will be deemed to have resigned, with the number required for a quorum adjusted to the number of serving legislators, and special elections to be held posthaste.

Definitely works for me!

I always thought DUpipo were for "majority rules." If that's the case, shouldn't the Texas D legislators accept the fact that they are in the minority in their legislature, the R's are going to win, and they should be gracious losers?

A no-call no-show at pretty much any job would get you fired.

Imagine the tables were turned and a democrat party controlled state legislature wants a key lgbtqrstuvwxyz item passed and the republican minotiry fled the state to avoid a quorum and a vote on the dem's pet agenda item.  Would that also be the face of "real patriotism"?

No need to imagine. Vox had an article about republicans in Oregon doing the same stunt. Predictably, leftists proclaimed that that was "subverting democracy."

Abbott is going to have them arrested when they come back. LOL

This should be wild.

Without double standards, liberals would have no standards at all.

I read they had Miller Lite on the bus/plane.  BAD messaging!  Democrats are so stupid.  If this had been Republicans, there would have been Shiner Bock, or any number of homegrown Texas beers!  LOL

Dan Crenshaw did a good slide on these fools.  NONE of them could answer the question; what is so bad about the voting law changes in Texas?  None of them.  It was hilarious.

I should ask my state rep.  We had him out for a golf tournament we were 1/2 sponsors on for our real estate company.  He was a really good guy with a really interesting company that deals with White Tail Deer for the state.

That's not what patriotism looks like. That's what cowardice, dereliction of duty and throwing a tantrum by grown adults looks like.

After several of the unmasked cowards in the photo in the private jet tested positive for the chi-vi I would argue that this is what karma looks like.

VP Harris went for a "routine" medical visit after coming into contact with the abdicators.

Real patriotism, people.  :whatever:

Heels up Harris is an expert at sucking so not likely a low blood oxygen level will be detected quickly.
