    Texas Gov. Greg Abbott vetoes bipartisan anti-cruelty bill for dogs

    just... wow.

    Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) vetoed 20 bills passed by the GOP-controlled state Legislature, most of them announced Monday, The Texas Tribune reports. Abbott canceled two criminal justice reform bills prioritized by House Speaker Dade Phelan (R), a bill requiring schools to teach high school and middle school students about child abuse prevention and domestic violence, another one expanding rural broadband access, and legislation offering reduced penalties for criminal trespassing, arguing it would hurt tools to arrest homeless people and immigrants at the border.

    The kids already know everything about domestic abuse, RG. They're living proof. We've been running a 50% divorce rate since the end of WW2. They know.

    It would appear so.

    All for it. Making the case for electing a Democrat easier, IMO.

    (reads the bill)



    It does that by deciding who gets Federal funds and who doesn't. Texas basically complied with the strings attached to the money from the Feds.

    Money that, if memory serves, was ponied up by Democrats at the Federal level with exactly zero Republican votes.

    You're welcome.

    Qhris.

    Democrats increased access to high-speed internet throughout Texas, not Republicans.

    Suck it.

    Because I crossed your demarcation line when I cast that cute Minnesota babe that was killed down with that woman that was shot to death in 1-6. That was all she wrote for you and me.

    I'll never understand it if I live to be a 100, but it is what it is.
