He forgot about the dem walkout during the recent voting bill victory. Any Republicans who voted to keep Dems in committee chairs should be excommunicated from the GOP. I’ll start with Valoree Swanson.

Republicans don't appoint Democrats. Period. Full stop.

Dade why now? When Elon is tweeting and Maher has a commentary about how far the Dem party has gone, then you have your answer. Do we want to turn over control to Beto, Al Green, or Sheila Jackson Lee as they are moderates? How about Dutton wanting to mask our kids? Do you want to explain HB 826?

If the Dems have zero responsibility for the Texas GOP priorities not getting passed, then it is on the R leadership. Meaning it is on you Dade. If I cannot trust you on getting the priorities passed, then how can I trust your judgement on the Dems.

The most disappointing part is the folks that voted against Slaton’s HR amendment to ban Dem chairs got voted back to Austin during the primaries, including Mister “I could get caught doing a goat in town square and still get re-elected” Cole Hefner.

How do we get rid of the RINOs if everyone keeps voting for them? 😭 we don’t have $160k to spend on a PR firm and hundreds of thousands of mailers, but they do 😡 what do we do? 😭

Republicans giving up plush committee leadership assignments is why it took so long to get unlicensed carry.
