These people have no business being in elected office and sadly they are reflective of the chunk of the electorate that put them into power. The courts already have the power to hold without bail and make those judgements.
At this point for SOME republicans like in Texas, it's about punching down, and being proud being seen punching down.
Lice are so much more dangerous than Covid! Besides, anyone can get Covid and lice are far more biased.How is it the group that would foster a lack of trust in gov't, continually demonstrate why there should be a lack of trust?
Just in case stupidity didn’t pass to the child through his genes, he’s making sure the next generation of his family will be dumb.I was walking into the store with my mask on, I assume a father and child were walking out maskless. The child asked the father about masks, and was told ”that’s such a scam.”

The other part that kills me is how they’re asking for help from medical people. I think nurses, doctors, respiratory therapists, etc. should ban together and agree to come help if Abbott will agree to enforcing masking in schools.TX governor Abbott, wow.... so far won't reverse his bans on mandated masks or vaccination, but meanwhile now in the face of a surge in covid infections, urges hospitals to delay elective surgical procedures and also tries to import workers from out of state to help staff covid treatment centers... [ meanwhile neighboring Arkansas for instance is nearly out of ICU beds due to a covid spike and is strained for medical resources ]
Texas Gov. Abbott asks hospitals to delay elective procedures as COVID cases surge
Abbott has opposed measures that would mitigate the virus' spread, such as vaccine and mask mandates.
I think Desantis & Abbot have demonstrated that they believe the responsibility for anything Covid falls on anyone else.
I heard this morning that the Dallas School District among others are defying his politically motivated stupidity.TX governor Abbott, wow.... so far won't reverse his bans on mandated masks or vaccination, but meanwhile now in the face of a surge in covid infections, urges hospitals to delay elective surgical procedures and also tries to import workers from out of state to help staff covid treatment centers...

I heard about this on the radio this morning. More areas of Texas are basically daring the Governor to try and stop them from protecting their children. They interviewed people in Austin and they are going to mandate masks at school regardless of his statements. I believe he has already jumped the shark on this anti-mask, anti-vaxx BS and just hasn’t realized it yet.
Mostly it’s the fact that under the new law, they control who counts the ballots and if they don’t like the way they’re counted they will have the ability to change the count without any oversight. Kinda like Trumpy wanted them to do in November.
That’s all well and good, but how many deaths will occur before the next election?
No, it should be a national mask mandate, and a vaccine mandate too. There is no “freedom” to infect other people... just like there’s no “freedom" to drive drunk, fire guns randomly around the neighborhood, etc, etc. Does a local school board member in rural Texas know more about infectious diseases than the CDC?
