Recently, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and Texas Governor Greg Abbott performed in a diabolical Texas two-step. See, last year the legislature failed to pass a bill criminalizing gender affirming care for trans kids. But this is an election year, and Paxton is getting primaried from the right by Rep. Louie Gohmert. And while Gohmert may be dumb as a stump, he does have the advantage of not being under felony indictment ss Paxton is.

So Paxton teamed up with Fort Worth Republican state Rep. Matt Krause, who sent him a query as to whether doctors and parents might be prosecuted under existing child abuse laws for providing medically necessary care to transgender children.

Turns out, they could! At least according to the exceptionally cruel Ken Paxton. mad

Paxton prefaces his legal "Opinion" with his entirely subjective opinion of gender-affirming medical care, writing:
Quote
"it is important to note that it remains medically impossible to truly change the sex of an individual because this is determined biologically at conception. No doctor can replace a fully functioning male sex organ with a fully functioning female sex organ (or vice versa). In reality, these 'sex change' procedures seek to destroy a fully functioning sex organ in order to cosmetically create the illusion of a sex change."

Ol' Joe is the reason all of these worldwide sanctions against Russia, the frozen assets, the disconnected banking systems, and consequences have all come together behind the scenes

This is Joe's finest hour and this point in time is what Joe practiced his whole political life for.

Yeah, what could possibly go wrong?

I say we nominate him for the Nobel peace prize for saving so many lives in Ukraine through his genius political maneuvering to avoid the war.

Having failed that he now has thrown the entire world economy under the bus, hoping to make Putin feel so bad about how tough things are for regular working Russians that he'll call the whole thing off.

Ol Joe said during his SOTU address of the Russian Oilygarch's possessions:: " We're going to find and seize their apartments and yachts."

The apartments are in Trump Tower NYC, Mr. President. smile

Whoever followed Trump was bound to look good to a lot of people. Biden is better than Trump, I have no arguments with you there.

But he's got a long way to go before he starts looking good to me.

Remember when Devin Nunes quit his seat in Congress to become the CEO of Trump's TRUTH SOCIAL. You know that site that Donald Trump launched this week that not even he uses?

Poor Devin - he really didn't think this thing through. LOL , smile

Obvs Donald Trump can't Art of the Deal his way out of a paper bag and is quite possibly the worst businessman ever. Hmm
