At 2:00 am this morning, he tweeted this about CNN, a teevee station he claims that he never watches.
He’s up at 2:00 in the morning, watching CNN?
And then, after sleeping late this morning, he’s back on the Twitter.
Okay, first of all – bomb stuff? Was 911 airplane stuff?
And since the bombs just went to Democrats, it’s “very unfortunate.” Had the bombs gone to Republicans it would have been “an act of war.” And even the “unfortunate” part isn’t about homegrown terrorism, it’s that it might hurt the momentum.
The Secretary of State has issued a rare announcement that the Hart eSlate voting machines in Texas are screwy.
Here’s what happens, when you vote a straight Democratic ticket and then go through the rest of the ballot to get to the screen to cast your vote, sometimes the first race on the ballot rolls over and overrides your straight ticket. So, you vote for Cruz instead of O’Rourke.
We’ve had three people catch it in my county. No telling how many more didn’t catch it.
Specifically, the Hart eSlate system uses a keyboard with an “Enter” button and a selection wheel button. The “Enter” button on a Hart eSlate selects a voter’s choice. The selection wheel button on a Hart eSlate allows the voter to move up and down the ballot. It is important when voting on a Hart eSlate machine for the voter to use one button or the other and not both simultaneously, and for the voter to not hit the “Enter” button or use the selection wheel button until a page is fully rendered. A voter should note the response to the voter’s action on the keyboard prior to taking another keyboard action. It is also important for the voter to verify their selections are correct before casting their ballot.
Ted Cruz was giving a rally speech in Georgetown, Texas (Think north Austin) and for some unknown reason other than the fact that Georgetown has a bunch of “retirement” communities, something really nuts happened.
The “retirement” communities in Georgetown are where Texas families send Uncle Earl when he ruins the family gatherings by pulling everybody’s ear, usually has a big bandaid on his nose from trying to clip his nose hairs with a butcher knife, slaps all the women under 30 on the butt, and generally goes to sleep in the potato salad bowl.
Well, Uncle Earl went to the Ted Cruz rally. He and some of his friends thought it was hysterically fun to start shouting “Lock him Up,” about Beto O’Rourke.
Let me make it real clear that nobody anywhere has accused Beto of breaking the law since he got a DUI back in high school. But, the hell with rule of law, lock that guy up because he’s a Democrat.
Y’all think I’m making this up, don’t you? I’m not.
So, Ted Cruz, who we’re going to have to tie to a pole when he gets old because Lord knows the man is screwy now and doesn’t have room to get worse, responded …
Somebody needs to tell Ted that “y’all” didn’t say anything about Hillary Clinton – not a damn thing. Ted, once again, got himself in trouble. Because he’s a damn fool.
These are the recipients of letter bombs targeting critics of Trump that started surfacing on Tuesday. We don’t know who’s sending them, but the Noise Machine is already running at full throttle, screaming about a supposed “false flag” operation funded by George Soros to make Trump look bad. As we’ve seen for years now, facts don’t matter to Trump or his sycophants, and after calling for unity while reading off a White House teleprompter, Trump reversed himself in the evening, stepping up his verbal attacks on the media and opponents, trying to turn responsibility for the growing threat of domestic terrorism away from himself by blaming the media for recording and playing back what he says word for word. Knowing his adoring fans would support him, he took ZERO responsibility for the threats and violence that result from the bile pouring out of his own mouth. The deplorables cheered.
Anyone paying attention knows precisely where responsibility lay for the toxic environment that now pervades all American’s lives. Our democracy is threatened, and could easily crumble, even as Trump and the invertebrates in the Congress step up their destructive rhetoric and political actions. We don’t yet know who’s sending the letter bombs, but it’s my guess that the terrorist is some gun-humping weirdo sitting in his basement wearing a MAGA hat who actually believes that Hillary Clinton and members of Congress open their own mail.

My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
