And still the Governor ignores the power grid. We're going to have grid failures during the next heatwave, the next freeze, and the next hurricane. Abbott's going to let more people die over this issue.

i live in los angeles , when i go buy weed , i get asked for a picture id , when i go vote i dont get asked for id , something doesn’t seem right about that , all they ask is for a name , so i could literally just go up to the person and say the name of a person i know and vote under that name , if democrats never want republicans to question the results of an election, like democrats did for 4 years about the 2016 election, if both sides can come to an agreement, voter id required to vote , it would make it impossible to question results, democrats have big money backing them , hollywood, big tech , democrats should go on campaigns to get everyone a picture id that does not have one , i dont care if democrats win elections as long as all their votes can be traced back to a name , a picture and address , same thing offcourse to anyone that votes republican, this should be a no brainer, both republicans and democrats could fix this so when someone looses dnc or gop , nobody can go back to saying the other side cheated

Texans are spending all their money and efforts on building a wall and denying Texans the vote, instead of spending money on the power grid.

Well voters in Texas…. What have YOU learned from the lessons that were thrown @ YOU… voters are responsible for keeping these clowns rolling around their clown cars & not working for people… You'll deserve everything coming if clowns are continued to be voted for. No sympathy for self inflicted stupidity

Texans need to vote Abbot out of office, he has souled his soul, for a lie, and I know in Texas there,s more people of color, than white. They need to get out and vote, blue.

The GOP has been waging a slow-motion Reichstag Fire since the Newt days of the 1990s. They have known that demographic shifts would erode and finally destroy the GOPs ability to win elections by mid-century. So they've looked for every trick in the book, legal or dirty, to whittle away voting rights, to downsize democracy, and undermine the federalist system the Founders established. Their wish is to rule, unhindered, in their various Red State fiefdoms like some kind of feudal nobility. If the dirty peasants don't like that, there's always martial law.

I don't think Manchin realises he won't get more donor money id he doesn't get reelected. At the rate his obstruction of his own party's position is going he likely won't.

It's hard to believe when I saw my test results turned negative of HSV2 after using the herbal medications I got from Dr. IGUDIA, A great doctor who I came across on YouTube. You all can also contact him for help on any kind of disease on his YouTube channel

Abbott not only hurt the politician s but staffers. Born dictator. His wife is Mexican American, and he would build a wall around her if it helped his re-election.

Power grid fails durong the worst winter storm: Ted Cruz "see ya guys in Cancun"
Power grid fails during record heat: Abbot "our priority is the wall, sorry Texans"
Does Texas has any elected official that actually cares about them?

Msnbc please interview someone who is directly impacted by these new laws. Conservatives seem to think that you wont interview anyone disenfranchised by these laws because these laws dont disenfranchise anyone. Again I dont think that because I blindly trust the media even when its obvious they arent trustworthy. I do what Im told, Im a liberal.
