Texas’ Anti-Mask, Anti-Vaccine Gov. Abbott, Now Pleading for Out-of-State Help


Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, a strong Trump supporter who earlier this year signed a bill into law banning local governments from enacting mask and vaccine mandates, is now desperately looking for out-of-state medical personnel to help him staff Texas hospitals that are being overrun by a horrific surge in COVID cases throughout the state as a result of his policies.  The governor has also requested hospitals postpone all elective surgeries until further notice.

Now let’s see.  We know masks and vaccines save lives, but Gov. Abbott is strongly opposed to asking people to wear masks and get vaccines.  Oh, I get it now.  Gov. Abbott isn’t actually asking for help to save lives, he’s only asking outsiders to come in to help attend to those poor folks his policies have essentially condemned to death.  Besides, can’t risk upsetting all those mask and vaccine-hating Trump supporters.  


Of course, given that Gov. Abbott really only cares about pandering to Trump’s base and not Texas citizens, I suppose it’s a pretty safe bet to conclude he also couldn’t care less about those dedicated medical professionals who have to clean up his mess.  Why, the whole situation’s becoming so distressing, it’s almost enough to send Texas Sen. Ted Cruz off on another one of his Cancun vacations.


Now, what I find interesting is, Gov. Abbott seems to have no issue whatsoever with schools mandating what kids - especially girls - have to wear when they attend classes, just as long as it doesn’t include face masks.  Funny how that works.  Now, one might ask, if Gov. Abbott seriously doesn’t believe masks work, then why wouldn’t he ban them from hospital operating rooms as well? 


Of course, in places like Japan - people voluntarily wear masks whenever they get a cold, to avoid passing it on it to others.  Republicans, on the other hand, are far too “patriotic” to ever be concerned about other people.  And, I get their point.  I mean, how in the hell is a good Trump patriot supposed to “own the Libs,” if they have to be concerned about the well-being of others?

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base

Trump Using Divisive Topics Like Plastic Straws to Energize Base:  Using tactics such as plastic straws, wind turbines, bogus conspiracy theories and race-baiting, White House aides freely admit that Donald Trump has been deliberately attempting to amplify public tensions in America by seizing on divisive issues as a means to energize his explosively angry base. Now, I know what some of you are thinking - you’re thinking “now this, is the last straw!”  Well, before you attack the “straw man,” remember that Donald Trump was that kid in school who thought it was simply hilarious to jam two straws up his nostrils.  Straws were an important part of Donald’s childhood, so it shouldn’t be a big surprise they remain so today.     What all you “elites" don’t understand is that Trump folks are all about fighting for “freedom.”  You know, the freedom to be morbidly obese, the freedom to destroy the environment, the freedom to live without affordable healt...

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence

Trump Commutes Old Pal Roger Stone's Sentence:   After declaring Roger Stone a victim of the “Russia hoax” perpetuated by the Left and its allies in the media, President Trump has commuted the three-year prison criminal sentence for the Republican operative and dirty trickster, who was due to report to federal prison on Tuesday after being found guilty of obstruction, witness tampering and lying to Congress. Good grief, is it my imagination, or has Trump actually just pardoned the real-life version of the Monopoly guy?  I mean, Stone is a villain right out of Charles Dickens.  Why, this is an act so corrupt, it’s almost enough to make Kim Jong-un and Vladimir Putin blush. Now, I’m no legal expert, but it appears what the Trump Administration is basically arguing is that - someone shouldn’t be punished for committing a crime which “they really should’ve gotten away with.”  And while that may sound a bit odd to the rest of us, that kind of thinking makes go...
