Baltimore Dan Patrick does not have the DNA of the Alamo soldiers in him. He isn't even from here. My family has been here nearly 200 years. I hate how much these out-of-state politicians try to lay claim to Texas heritage to entitle themselves to public office.

Q: Are you the one who’s going to turn Texas blue? @JamesTalarico: I’m not interested in turning Texas blue. I wanna win this seat so that I can fight for all 31 million Texans — whether they’re Democrats, independents, or Republicans. My party talks about turning Texas blue a lot. Republicans talk about keeping Texas red. I think the best color for Texas is purple. When you have a purple state and competitive elections, it forces every politician in both parties to stay on their toes. My hope in this race is that we can end 30 years of one-party rule and get competitive elections back in Texas so politicians are actually solving problems.

This is such a great post!

I debated whether or not to post today's Texas Quote of the Day, being that it borders on profane. But, in this hyper-partisan political era, I thought that it expresses a relevant thought about fellowship and the brotherhood of mankind in a way that only a Texan can: “You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a b*tch.'” ― Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 astronaut and one of only 12 men to walk on the moon. Edgar was born in Hereford, Texas in 1930. Here's a photo of Edgar on the moon in 1971.

Oof

Yep. Why do cities never learn. This guy absolutely will not pay up.

If she is elected, Hinojosa is vowing to appoint both Republicans and Democrats and build a “postpartisan” administration—beginning with the Texas Education Agency. “I’m going to fire Mike Morath on day one and hire an educator,” she says. texasmonthly.com/news-politi…

This is brilliant.

This is a sample of what is coming after the NOVEMBER Midterms. Impeachment is mandatory for our American way of Life. VOTE!!
