- Speaker Bonnen says he did not give target list of GOP members to Empower Texans – right. He had Burrows come in and give it. I do not believe Bonnen.
- Speaker Dennis Bonnen publicly denies he’s targeting 10 Texas House Republicans – Bonnen says “At no point in our conversation was Sullivan provided with a list of target Members.” Right, that’s why he left and had Burrows offer up the list. That was at “no point in our conversation” as he would not have been part of it at that point. Good old fashioned weasel words.
