“Elon Musk to spend big bucks to help Ken Paxton. The world’s first trillionaire will spend up to $200 million in Texas.”
It appears Musk is all in getting Texas thru the GE. I doubt he would be spending as much if Establishment-Cornyn was on the ticket.”
So Janzam is happy Musk is going to have to spend $200 million in Texas to beat a certified commie whacko?
He wouldn’t need to spend ANY money if Cornyn was on the ticket.
This is $200 million that could be spent on other candidates, not propping up Mr. Baggage.

Actually, that poll is probably good news for Paxton.
I doubt Hinojosa is tied with Abbott, so Paxton is probably not losing by 5.

Some idiot just said that the Clancy case DA should be “careful about retryiing the case”because he is running for re-election as a R.
There is only one problem. He is running unopposed.
Somehow I don ‘t think he is worried..
“Plymouth County District Attorney Timothy Cruz, the DA behind the prosecution of murder charges again Lindsay Clancy, was born in Brockton and raised in West Bridgewater. He currently lives in Marshfield, where he and his wife raised two sons.
The son of a plumber, he attended Boston College, playing for the hockey team as a walk-on. He went on to graduate from Suffolk University Law School.
Before he was DA, Cruz worked in a private practice, then as an Assistant District Attorney in Plymouth County.
A Republican, Cruz was first elected District Attorney of Plymouth County in 2001. He was reelected in 2006, 2010, 2014, 2018 and 2022, running twice unopposed, and winning between 57% and 67% of the vote when facing a challenger. He was unopposed in the Sept. 2 Republican primary and does not have a Democratic Challenger for the general election in November.
In 2022, Cruz was elected president of the Massachusetts District Attorneys Association. He is the longest-serving of the state’s 11 district attorneys.

No. You pay into it, you should get it back. Otherwise it just becomes a wealth tax.

No. The problem is even if you opt out if you run out of money for retirement you are going to be a burden on society anyway, you will still cost the government money because they won’t let you starve or deny medical care.

Don’t really care about what Clancy’s attorney says. Probably listed as legal positioning and posturing going forward.
More interested in the interview of three jurors about the one male holdout that kept saying he had doubt about the state’s case but couldn’t move because of the manner of the deaths of those kids. That basically went against the judge’s instructions.
