The locus of political and economic power is shifting in the United States. And it's shifting toward Texas. According to the 2020 Census, Texas gained 4 million residents over the last 10 years and, therefore, will be allocated two additional seats in Congress. California and New York will each lose one.
Just makes me sick. I loved living in Texas 30 plus years ago. Thank you for reporting on these issues. That's two more in the House of Representatives that will vote blindly for the GOP. Interesting donor list. Pepsi, too? I am going on an Ice Tea junket.
Just saw on Twitter a North Texas Election Chief has been arrested for his part in the Jan. 6 Insurrection.
Thank you, Judd. The GOP has painted itself into a corner, along with much of America, for decades. And the corner is ever more repulsive and un-American. The really sad thing is that the GOP and other conservative groups around the world are slowing efforts to fight the climate catastrophe.
Wow, hahaha Allen West sounds like a deranged psychopath...has he looked in the mirror? Does he think being a racist and conspiracy theorist will make the white folks of Texas accept him as one of their own?
Title to this excellent piece should be
"ATT, Altria, Google support the racists screaming slurs at local politicians."
We have to be as direct (and click-baity) as they are.
(not to mention that Texas was part of Mexico to begin with)

Does Allen West think he's white? Does True Texas know he replaced a white GOP chairman?

Since there are only 2 mobile phone companies, who do you Boycott. How about an article on the Monopolies and Oligopolies.
Judd, are you aware of this Supreme Court case? https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2018/03/corporations-people-adam-winkler/554852/
Texas is the leader. Republicans elsewhere will follow.
