What's Bigger in Texas? The Bullshit!

 

Texans love to use that old line, that "Everything is bigger in Texas." What's actually bigger in Texas is their, arrogance, their hypocrisy and their lies...Their bullshit!

For two days now, Republican lawmakers/politicians in and from Texas have been trying to cast the blame of their failures onto, "liberals," AOC, who's from New York, as well as President Biden and Vice President Harris. They are trying to say "green energy" is why millions of Texans have no power. Governor Abbott and Congressman Dan Crenshaw being the two loudest voices, along with Republican news network, FOX NEWS.

What they want you to ignore is the facts. Things that are public record, for anyone to see, as long as they actually want to see and know the facts. They are counting on people to 1. trust them and 2. be dumb or 3. both.

These lying bastards have been telling everyone that the mass power outages brought on by a historic (for Texas) Winter storm is because of the failings of "green energy." Wind and Solar being their top targets, as well as nuclear. What they aren't telling you is 88% of the power in Texas comes from coal and natural gas. Twenty hours ago, wind, solar and nuclear were all back online, while the coal and gas are not. 

They made a big stink about wind turbines freezing up and needing to be de-iced. That right there is what got me looking into this, because up north, wind turbines never stopped working. For example, 14 degrees in Toronto and those things were still going. So what happened? Texas being greatly opposed to government regulations did not choose to implement the de-icing regulation when they put up their wind turbines. As a matter of fact, the electrical grid in Texas was deregulated, privatized and taken of interconnected networks to avoid federal regulation. Yet here they are trying to blame the federal government for their failures.

Funny how Republicans who claim to be the party of "personal responsibility" are always looking to blame someone else for their fuck-ups!

Let's also not forget the the many Texas Republicans like Ted Cruz who spent a great deal of time shit talking California for having power issues and rolling blackouts during this past years wildfires. Cruz along with fellow Texas Senator, John Cornyn voted against sending California any federal aide. Both also agreeing with Trump that "Blue States" shouldn't get help, ignoring the fact that "Blue States" carry the bulk of this country's economy. Yet both Senators Cruz and Cornyn were asking for Federal Emergency Funds this weekend before the storm even got bad. The majority of those Federal Emergency Funds come from tax revenue from Connecticut, Massachusetts,  New York, New Jersey and Washington.  

So maybe next time Ted Cruz bitch, moaning and complaining about the evils of SOCIALISM, lets all tell him to shut the fuck up with his LYING and fear-mongering.

I have friends in Texas and I hate to be shitting on their state and hope they don't take it personally, but people, we have to call out the lies. Stop letting the Politicians, their corporate interests and Fox News lie to you.

While polls are showing Trump's approval ratings are at an all-time low, those polls are nation wide and include people from all parties. In a poll of just “Republicans” Trump has a 77% job approval rating...mind you, for the last 3 months he has done nothing that would be considered doing the job of the President. 85% believe he shouldn’t be impeached. While a decent number except he lost the election, 70% don’t trust U.S. elections...not realizing that if there was no Electoral College, Reagan would have been the last Republican President ever.

Yes, much of this is because of the non-stop lies spewed by Trump. But he wasn't alone. A vast majority of idiots in the Republican party as well as the full force of Fox News went along with his four years of lying. They helped push his lies, propaganda and misinformation, like the corner boys pushed drugs for Avon Barksdale. (If you don't get that reference you need to watch The Wire)

What happened after that was the GOP is being overrun by weak minded dolts who have to immerse themselves in conspiracy theories, so that they can ignore facts and go along with the bullshit and lies. Leading the way is these QAnon idiots. These idiots will tell you the government is controlled by Satanic child molesters, and "we need to save the children," but they didn't seem to give a damn about the children their leader Trump had taken away from their parents and locked in cages. Odd how they scream about the evil's of government while the party they support and claim to be a part of, has been in the majority and the White House the last four years.

There is a entire faction of the Republican party that is willing to accept an Authoritarian-Trumpism-White Supremacists government. People who side with the Klan and the Nazis. These people lead the charge in screaming about ANTIFA, and blaming ANTIFA for everything they do, and anything they don't like. ANTIFA which stands for Anti Fascist. I saw a dope at the attack on the Capitol wearing a hoodie that said "Anti-ANTIFA." So this group of Red, White and Blue, self-proclaimed "Patriots" are support Fascism. They don't make a much sense do they?

These are the same people who spent the Summer counter protesting Black Lives Matter and repeatedly screaming "Blue Lives Matter!" But there's plenty of video of them beating the shit out of police officers at the Capitol. There's video where they are chanting "fuck the blue." They beat a police officer to death.

Everything these people say they believe and stand for, the do the opposite.

This isn’t going away when he’s out of office. This is problem our country will have to deal with for decades to come. If you don’t believe me, look at those numbers at the top again. It doesn't bother me that while 81 million Americans vote the same as I did, 74 million voted for the other guy. That's great. Elections should have massive turnout. It bothers me that way too many of those 74 million refuse to believe math and science. They refuse to accept reality and proof...Realize Trump is on tape saying he knew how deadly COVID is, back in February, while he was lying to the public about it. These people chose to believe the lies instead of the tape. We now have 400,000 Americans dead from COVID. He and his enablers lied about the elections with no proof, while actual proof showed they were lying. They lost 64 court cases trying to fight the election results, including getting tossed out of the Supreme Court. The members of his cult chose to stick with the lies instead of the facts.

So many talking heads are saying "This isn't America." Bullshit! This is America and you need to realize it. This shit isn’t going away when Trump does. Joe Biden’s corny line about this being a fight for “the soul of the nation” is for real. This country's soul is severely fractured. I'm not sure we can heal it.

If you read all of this, and you support Trumpism...if you support the idea that people can attack the Capitol because their candidate lost an election...You are no patriot. You are a traitor. You are an enemy of this country and our Constitution.

In closing, take 9 minutes and watch this.

Yeah, that tongue move was being done long before all you girls on TikTok...My oh my what a fucked up rabbit hole TikTok is...It's never ending it seems...just scrolling from one dancing video to another, to a kid telling his mom dirty jokes, to someone ranting about another TikTok'er and then the opposing side...It's a never ending rabbit hole of mindless bullshit and cock-teasing...But I'll give that TikTok generation credit...They're fucking with the Trump campaign, and I can completely appreciate and get onboard with that!

In case you missed it Friday, news broke that Robert De Niro is broke...But not really, if you read HERE ....

Also there's a heated debate in my old home town of Cleveland on whether the Indians should change their name, and what to...I broke that down for you THURSDAY...

All that talk got fired up after more pressure was put on the Washington Redskins to change their name...And while I had no faith that owner Dan Snyder was really going "look into it" very hard...I assumed he was just going to try and ride out the pressure again, but it seems there is too much pressure this time...The Sports Business Journal is reporting the Washington Redskins name will be retired Monday...

 Now a name has come forward, that many Washington fans seem to like, and many players, vocally lead by their QB, Dwayne Haskins, are jumping onboard with...Also media personality, and former punter Pat McAfee has put his voice behind this change...

The name...The Washington Red Wolves....And yes, there are plenty of mock-ups hitting the internet...

Very classic look with a red "R" (same as current red) howling wolf inside...

This one, kind of boring...

Trying to keep the current colors...Not awful but just kind of whatever...

This one the whole vibe is different...Angrier feel...More of a blood red...Claw marks coming over the shoulder...

Here we have claw marks across the helmet and on the shoulders...

And here we have a complete change, feeding off the D.C. bullshit and going Red, White and Blue, with a lame wolf head...

I'm fine with the Red Wolves name...I think it's lazy and dumb to try to hold onto "Red" in the name...If you're going to make a change, be bold, be different...

...Since I mentioned D.C. and I love to shit all over politicians...Republican Senator from Missouri, Josh Hawley wrote a letter to the NBA Commissioner criticizing the league for allowing players to wear messages that promote social justice on their jerseys this summer but not allow messages that support law enforcement or are critical of China’s Communist Party....Fuck this guy...Hawley is trying to play the Fox News card of "Shut up and Dribble"...

But then he tweets an image of an email he got from ESPN's #1 basketball reporter, Adrian Wojnarowski...Woj, as he is known, (based off my Twitter research, because I could give two shits about basketball) called out Hawley for his bullshit, and I'll go ahead and say it, ignorant, racist view on shit...Plus Woj acting like he was writing on my blog as he told Hawley to "Fuck Off!"

Just to be clear, Hawley less then a month ago bitched about the evil "cancel culture" but here he is trying to cancel someone for saying what they think...

So, of course ESPN doesn't stand by it's guy...They Suspended him...He, probably forced by the suits at ESPN has tweeted an apology...He also attempted to contact Hawley's office but did not hear back from them...A number of NBA players have been vocal and calling out ESPN and started the "hashtag"  #FreeWOJ....

This little prick Hawley tweeted ESPN shouldn't suspend Woj, and that ESPN should be harder on the NBA for "their pro-China, Anti-America bias"...One, The NBA makes money for ESPN/ABC they aren't going to shit where they eat...Josh, you should know that, you're a criminal politician...Christ, if you are going to ask for that, you need to ask your friends at Fox News, Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson to stop sucking off Trump and actually be tough on him too...

For real...This guy who is crying that a reporter told him to "fuck off," is a Senator from a state who has a mayor that doxxed Black Lives Matter/Defund the Police protesters...You fuckers seem to be the Anti-American ones...

As for Hawley's state of Missouri, that doesn't even have a fucking NBA team, their COVID cases have doubled in the last month...Maybe start worrying about the people your represent...You don't represent any NBA player...

Oh yeah...Senator Josh Hawley, Fuck off, you fucking fuck!

Have a week.
