@heidilifeldman I wasn’t inclined to go before, and I sure as hell won’t be now.
@heidilifeldman They are the Texas Taliban at this point. The only way to tell them apart at this point is the Texas versions are in suits and ties
@heidilifeldman
Thanks for sharing the article I had heard of some is the collaboration but not all of it.
It also reminded me that we hadn't yet setup supporting the Texas Observer with recurring donations.
@heidilifeldman So, no real change, then?
@heidilifeldman I left a few friends I made behind, but honestly, the best thing I did was move out of that state last year. My wife feels so much safer where we are now
@heidilifeldman Texas has always been a mean state, and over the past few decades it’s also become stupid.
Remember that when the Civil War was over, the union had to detach another army to go remind Texas that they lost.
Find a state that's committed itself to providing #sanctuary and hit the road.
Don't wait for a miracle from Congress that may never come, while fearing arrest.
Get out now.
