A Texan who was in on a Zoom meeting with me yesterday said that many Texans are up in arms over the lockdowns and mandatory mask orders.

And some counties may not even have a hospital with ICU beds.

And that rarely gets mentioned, either.

They should add Mitt to the list. No Republican should be censored more than that weasel.

Spot on about that carpetbagging trash from Kennebunkport. Watch for George P. to try and slither into the Governors mansion soon.

Saw this on a site researching his background FWIW

“Wallace Calvin Abbott, who founded Abbott Pharmaceuticals. Do you want to guess what Gov. Greg Abbott’s father’s name is? Calvin Abbott.”

Interesting post.

Here in New Hampshire we have an equally-lukewarm RINO Governor. He announced beforehand that he wouldn’t be attending PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP’s rally tonight in Portsmouth. The rally was postponed due to weather, but God flushed out another confounding Governor.

Make sure the numbers are correct and not 50-75% inflated

No governor should have this kind of power for more than a few days. Where are the legislatures? When you allow governors to have this kind of power then you no longer have a representative government. You now have dictatorships.

“many Texans are up in arms”

No they aren’t. “Up in arms” is what Antifa does. Texans aren’t doing s*** and I’m amazed.

Abbott’s political career is finished! He needs to be impeached.

There is widespread resistance to these orders. That is why he is threatening another lock down. In my County, the police have said they will not enforce the mask mandate.

I know of 2 tests conducted on asymptomatic people as a cautionary, contact-related measure.

What do you think this is a church setting? He is a public official abusing his powers and needs to be rebuked in public.

Completely agree, I hate the guy now, he is nothing but a petty tyrant allowing medical quacks to run the State.

Completely agree. And you note he is now hiding from the public! The man is evil and the legislative is being ignored. This is no different then King Charles 1. Gov. Abbott needs to be impeached for his unconstitutional acts

We have had protests and I am sure we going to have more. And, as you can see, Abbott is being sued by many people. The pressure is going to force him to convene a special legislature or his political career is finished.

Yep. I loved him before this, now...psssh. I would vote for him as a block but support—no way, not at all.

I grew up in Texas, still own the old family ranch there, and I pray you are right.
