He isn't? Have you been following the news about the Budget Bill that just passed.

It appears so...Patrick says there was but Kelly says they don't have a warning system in place (both could be true). https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/live/2025/jul/05/texas-flooding-latest-news-updates-guadalupe-river-flood-camp-mystic A flood watch had been upgraded to a warning overnight on Friday for at least 30,000 people, the Associated Press reports. Texas Lt-Gov Dan Patrick said the potential for heavy rain and flooding covered a large area. “Everything was done to give them a heads up that you could have heavy rain, and we’re not exactly sure where it’s going to land,” Patrick said. “Obviously as it got dark last night, we got into the wee morning of the hours, that’s when the storm started to zero in.” Kerr county judge Rob Kelly, the county’s chief elected official, said: “We do not have a warning system.” When pushed on why more precautions weren’t taken, Kelly said no one knew this kind of flood was coming.

They won't say they are applying it retroacively, it will be sold as a a reinterpretation of the Constitution, claiming that is what was the real intent when the 14th Amendment was passed.

Yeah, as I mentioned in another thread, Trump plans to deport all those with birthright citizenship and he won't stop there. And I think the way thinks are going SCOTUS will probably back him on this in a 6-3 decision.

Meh. If the trash pileup is that bad Trump can always call the National Guard or the Marines to handle it like he did in L.A. (and the problem will be instantly solved).

Who knows? Haven't seen him since the thread about the 13 year old cancer survivor that Trump highlighted at his State of The Union address. In that thread I quoted some MSNBC on-the-air commentary by Nicole Wallace. Phil took offense that I did that and tagged Mike asking that I be banned from this forum for quoting her (although what he wanted me banned for were comments she made that I hadn't quoted ). He hasn't posted after that and I don't know if that thread was the reason or he just got tired of this place (and, no, I didn't report him).

They trash immigrants (legal and illegal) in this forum 24/7 and then claim they are not racist.

Wait, what, this is legitimate. Surprised he doesn't make it Pay-Per-View to enrich himself even further .

They are? News to me.

Are transvestites the same thing as transgender? AI Overview No, transvestites and transgender people are not the same thing. While both terms involve gender expression, they differ in their core meaning. Transvestite, often used interchangeably with cross-dresser, refers to someone who enjoys wearing clothing associated with the opposite gender, but it doesn't necessarily imply a different gender identity. Transgender, on the other hand, encompasses a broader range of identities where a person's gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth.

I am sticking to the topic which (per the title) is talking about transvestites not transgenders Transvestites are not the same thing as transgenders. OP can say they are one in the same but that doesn't make it so. I have never seen a guy in full Drag competing in a women's track event, so the party can't be over for them as it never began.

Transvestites in sports-the party is over OP doesn't know the difference between transvestite and transgender. Must be confusing sporting events with Drag Queen Story Hour at the library.

False. We care about anyone denied Due Process under the Constitution, it doesn't matter if that person is a living saint or a serial killer (everyone is entitled to due process, citizen or non-citizen). And if Democrats cared only about power they certainly wouldn't be backing Garcia here - even though it is the right thing to do, it probably won't be a winning campaign issue if the lies and smear campaign against him are successful.

Who knew he was so pedantic about semantics?

Good news and bad news: The good news is that, yes, he responded several times. The bad news is that he never answered the question in any of his reponses.

So you repeat the stories about him abusing his wife, being a gang member and human smuggling like a parrot but all of that is irrevant to you because you think he should be deported just for the above US Code violation. So, his character good or bad means absolutely nothing to you.

And they weren't even real margaritas but were made to look that way by the wait staff. Marco Rubio repeated the "sipping margaritas" lie the other day and he obviously knows it's not the truth.

Neither do I and it is irrelevant. What we have said since the start of this thread is that IT IS NOT ABOUT GARCIA THE PERSON it about is the larger constitutional issues involved in this case that could potentially impact everyone (look at the big picture, people).
