As Texas’ first-in-the-nation primary on March 1 approaches, election administrators and voters are struggling to follow its provisions, many of which make it harder to vote.
Please procced Texas
You’ve got to figure Republicans will work to counter this in mostly-white counties where it is likely to make a favorable difference for them but it would be oh-so very satisfying if they failed and even more satisfying if it failed by aiding Democrats proportionally.
“Be careful what you wish for…
You might just get it”
I really fail to see how GOP voters won’t also be compromised with this mish-mash of evil voter-suppression tactics. Texas Legislators are likely not smart enough to prevent blowback into their racist faces.
“Texas Republicans’ Voting Law Unleashes Chaos On The State Before Primary.”
It’s a trainwreck inside a shitshow wrapped in a dumpster fire.

PS: Be careful what you wish for GOP; it’d be a real shame if you inadvertently disenfranchised all those older pink folks — your party’s most reliable voters — who almost always vote by mail.
Texas Republicans’ Voting Law Unleashes Chaos On The State Before Primary
Texas needs a leash law, stat.
(I’m probably barking up the wrong tree.)
So it’s working as intended. The chaos will be in the larger counties, where the democratic voting moochers live.
Thanks to Boris Manchin and Natasha Sinema marching lockstep with Republicans people will be denied a right to vote.
Punching themselves in the dick with older, whiter voters just to assuage Trump’s 2020 vote-by-mail grievances. It just never gets old.
I am oh so glad I don’t live in Texas or have any reason to go there. And that’s saying a lot because I live in WVa
IOW: working as designed
OT: Brannon’s SugerDaddy
The Chinese financier behind Steve Bannon’s right-wing projects and the social media app Gettr filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Tuesday, claiming to only be worth $50,000 to $100,000. The move came just days after a New York judge ordered Guo Wengui, an anti-communist fugitive and self-styled billionaire, to cough up $134,000,000 in fines for moving his super-yacht out of U.S. waters amid a lawsuit brought by Hong Kong creditors. It also comes amid layoffs at Gettr and infighting within the anti-Beijing dissident network Wengui launched with Bannon. The $28 million yacht—on which Bannon was famously arrested—was missing from Guo’s self-valuation in the Connecticut bankruptcy filing. Also absent was his $68 million penthouse overlooking Central Park; a holding company tied to Guo that purchased the pad reportedly filed for bankruptcy two years ago. Guo’s attorneys did not immediately to a respond for comment. Jason Miller, co-founder of Gettr, told The Daily Beast that Guo’s financial fortunes would have no impact on his company.

“Now I’m giving you $250 and taking food down to the truckers every day. Thank you for continuing to fight for Canadians across this country,” she wrote.
Giuliani confirmed she made the donation, but said she had no idea about what she thought was a “peaceful, grassroots movement” would become.
Dude sounds like he’s determined to go to prison for bankruptcy fraud too.
Jason Miller? This pillar of society?
ATLANTA (CN) — The 11th Circuit on Friday unanimously rejected senior Trump adviser Jason Miller’s attempt to revive his libel lawsuit against now-defunct news site Splinter.
Miller, who also served on the former president’s 2016 campaign and 2020 reelection campaign, filed a $100 million lawsuit against Gizmodo Media Group and a Splinter News reporter over a 2018 story about court documents alleging that Miller slipped an abortion pill into a smoothie of a woman he impregnated.

I don’t think he’s planning on re-entering this country.

Sure, sure, the current Texas county clerks and secretary of state are expressing dismay about all the ballots that are being rejected, and wringing their hands about the voters who have been disenfranchised.
No biggie. They’ll all be replaced in November by officials who revel in the ballot rejections, publish them proudly as “another 430 illegal votes DISQUALIFIED!”, and compete to see who can have the smallest (Democratic) vote count by election day.
My understanding is that Guo remains in the country. And he’ll have to participate in the case if he actually wants to get any of his debt discharged. Otherwise, the case will get dismissed and his creditors will all sue and pick his assets clean.
