A growing number of school districts, counties and cities have defied Gov. Greg Abbott’s executive order banning mask mandates, as COVID-19 cases continue to spike due to the delta variant and a low rate of vaccination among Texans.

Some things never change. Sad to say. Twenty years ago, I was butting heads with the same people I’m butting heads with now. Twenty years ago, they were in favor of invading Afghanistan (2001) and then Iraq (2003). Stupid. Now, they’re opposed to the COVID vaccines, facemasks, and the right of public school districts to mandate masks this upcoming school term. More stupid. Only difference is, they’re 20 years older, and now they have kids who parrot their idiocy. The demented gene pool lives on while poor people in Afghanistan are dying, much like the Vietnamese did when we abandoned them in 1973.

When New York Attorney General Leticia James issued her report containing the accusations that the governor had acted inappropriately with 12 women, many individuals on both sides of the aisle no doubt rejoiced. One man, however, who has been soundly attacked himself by New York Democrats was appalled. He stated that he had no personal knowledge as to the truth or falsity of the charges, but that the governor was not being treated fairly or lawfully.
