    I read somewhere that you can now buy alcohol in stores at 10am on Sundays instead of 12 noon. Good to see the legislature is hard at work...

    TX lawmakers seem to think the USSC may overturn Roe v Wade.

    “Additionally, HB 1280 would outlaw abortionin Texas 30 days after any potential U.S. Supreme Court decision overturns Roe v. Wade.”

    Mavs don't take state money do they? It never really occurred to me any pro sports teams would take state money but who knows.

    “Star Spangled Banner Protection Act”: Professional sports teams with state funding are required to play the national anthem before games under SB 4.

    I wonder if money from stadium deals collected via taxes (rental cars, hotels) constitutes money from the government.

    That one law they put in, so Austin cant manage it's own police force, is the most anti-Republican, big-govt thing I've seen the GOP do in the past day.

    Weird number of laws that they settled on there. Wouldn't pass one more or one less?

    Early rations on game day, modified DuPont shifts and bi-weekly custody drop-offs wait for no divorced dad.

    Wow that is a lot of government overreach. Requiring the national anthem to be played, not allowing teachers to discuss current events, etc.

    The Republicans are demons. The number of the BEAST is perfect for them.

    Probably they all have tax subsidies for buildings and facilities. Seems quite anti-free speech @Os Trigonum

    yes, Republicans as small gov was always a lie. They have no issue using the power of the gov to suppress and get what they want.

    The pressure on teacher including legal penalties is quite anti free mind, speech, freedom or those values Republican likes to preach daily but acts differently @Os Trigonum

    Would sound better if he said she was murder in her hallway by the police officers searching for drug that they didn't find.
