Reaction to Abbott’s positive WuFlu test shows where our national civil war divide exists – Pratt on Texas for 8/18/2021

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: The media’s reaction is predictable to Governor Abbott testing positive for WuFlu and the Houston Chronicle’s scathing, nasty editorial well demonstrates our nation’s divide: We have a separation between self-responsible individual sovereign citizens and those who want to be told what to do, or at least guided in times of stress, by leaders or authority of the state. A republic is inherently made of self-governing people and those who are uncomfortable with such are un-American by nature because they desire direction and control from man-made authority.

Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.

Texas House of Representatives

Texas House leaders have known from the beginning they could arrest and return to the Capitol AWOL Democrats and now the Supreme Court has reaffirmed that. So, why have we still not seen any true effort, other than chest thumping for the media coverage, from Republicans and Speaker “Feckless” Phelan to return Dems to the Chamber? It’s been a special session and a third of another!

Lt. Governor, House Chairman Renew Conflict Over the Power Grid  I discuss the fight between the House and Senate over “legislative intent” on the ERCOT and Texas Big Freeze financial recovery package.
