You see Hakeem. This is how you use power. You are such a weak bitch you are scared of your own shadow. You are always on your needs begging Republicans to follow the rules. Keep crying and saying the Republicans are not playing fair. You are always looking for common ground Republicans don't care

When is Greg Abbott's term as Governor end Governor Greg Abbott it's not is nothing but Trump's lap dog true fact anyone who deliberately delays an election for Democrats is nothing but Trump's lap dog

Cry foul and then what? Republicans operate outside laws and norms. Dems cry foul and democracy erodes… but nothing else. Flaccid party of opposition says wahhh

Great. Cry foul. But now what? There is much anti-Dem anger built up; the voices of the people that agree with you are drowned out by the hatred that MAGA has for the left, however misplaced. But we’re begging you & your colleagues to please fight & claw back what’s left of our Democracy.

to compare, Raúl Grijalva died on the 13th, Arizona has already called a special election to fill his seat, Sylvester Turner died on the 5th and they still haven't set a date for the election to fill his seat.

Governor Abbott also capped any tort reforms after he got a windfall from his neighbor’s tree that fell on him during a freak storm. Just call him for what he is: a craven asshole. Fuck, I am sick of your shit, NYT
