from @ 0liviajulianna on tiktok, and @ travisakers on twitter
[vid description: a clip of Texas governor candidate Beto O'Rourke at a town hall speaking to a crowd people inside. the video begins with him facing the front and right of the frame and speaking into a microphone, then turning to the left. he is pointing as he speaks, then directly addresses and points to the person laughing, who is not seen. the camera then pans to the direction Beto was pointing as the crowd applauds and cheers.
for context, Beto is talking about gun control and how people (specifically 18yr olds) are able to legally obtain massive guns in Texas
his speech: "-and take that weapon that was originally designed for use on the battlefields in Vietnam to penetrate an enemy soldier's helmet at 500 feet and knock him down dead. up against kids at five feet- it may be funny to you motherfucker but it's not funny to me okay?" after this, the crowd begins to cheer and applaud.

Mother's Day and Political Memes
Today is Mother’s Day here in the U.S.  Having been out with the girls for several hours yesterday, then not getting to bed until after 4:00 a.m., I overslept today.  Therefore I am, once again, behind on everything and so for this afternoon I’ll simply share with you a few of the political memes I’ve come across over the past week.  I especially like the ones about the cat and about the…

Texas gubernatorial debate: Beto O’Rourke, Greg Abbott spar on guns, abortion and immigration
Guns. Abortion. . Texas’ closely-watched gubernatorial race hit the final stretch Friday night at the first — and likely only — debate between incumbent Republican Gov. Greg Abbott, and Democratic challenger Beto O’Rourke, as the candidates sparred on some of the biggest issues facing votes in the state. While recent polls have shown O’Rourke trailing Abbott by around 7 points, this still could…

Return of retail politics
Return of retail politics
Last week, we heard a lot about Cheri Beasley’s “go everywhere” strategy. The U.S. Senate candidate is traveling to counties across the state, talking to voters, and trying to build momentum for her campaign in a state that has only elected on Democrat to the U.S. Senate once in the past 20 years. And it appears to be paying dividends. Polls have her tied or leading. Yesterday, the Washington…

Arm teachers? You mean the same teachers that you said you wanted fired for teaching LGBTQ and black history in class...? 🤔 Are liberal/LGBTQ+/gender non-comforming teachers going to be able to have guns in their classrooms too, or does this only apply to straight, white, cis-het Republican teachers? Because you can BET your ass red states aren't going to let their more liberal educators obtain a gun in their classrooms if they can’t handle them teaching LGBTQ/black history to their students.

Trump to speak at NRA event in Texas after Uvalde school shooting
Trump to speak at NRA event in Texas after Uvalde school shooting
Former President Donald Trump will deliver a headline speech in support of gun rights at a National Rifle Association event in Houston on Friday, days after a shooting massacre at a Texas elementary school stoked a fervent push to strengthen firearm laws. An 18-year-old gunman — wielding an AR-15-style long rifle that he had purchased legally — opened fire at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde,…

America deserves better than gun-humping republicans [VIDEO] #Uvalde
America deserves better than gun-humping republicans [VIDEO] #Uvalde
Ronnie Reagan’s “Morning in America” was always a fake-marketing ploy to make republicans seem like “aw shucks” Average Joe America. It was the first Big Lie. Nixon was a crook. Reagan was a crook and a liar. Dubya is a war criminal. And don’t get me started on The Former Guy, who history will record as our most profoundly corrupt official in modern history. But why is “Morning in America” ruse…

Most Texans want legal Cannabis. But Republican Governor Greg Abbott is convinced he knows better than voters, and he‘s not budging.
