    The fact that it actually stopped the ads is tragic. It clearly has no legs to stand on but achieved the goal.

    I’m curious when his skin suit is going to break apart and thousands of cockroaches will pour out of it.

    Dude, white Republicans must be fucking depressed. Like, the bigotry is still their, it’s clearly the only thing left fueling them. But God damn. Having to cope with the gas prices, the economic failures, a datacenter poisoning your lungs and ears. Listening to your president talk about his ballroom and golf course renovations on social media all day. Can we get some “it’ll be ok white people” ads? That’s what Paxton is projecting right now. His entire voter base is too depressed to get off the couch. These red state Republicans never have had to actually try to win an election. There there Pax. It’ll be ok. We just need some DEI for old white rascist shitbags.

  • I thought the head line was so bombastic. “By specifically directing voting advertisements to these and many other racial or ethnic ‘detailed targeting’ terms, it is readily apparent that Harris County is attempting to increase the likelihood that only certain racial and ethnic groups—but not all—will vote,” the lawsuit reads. “In any event, there can be no legitimate reason for Harris County to intentionally target voter advertisements toward this peculiar assortment of African American, Asian, and Latino ethnicities, cultural interests, and countries, but not toward any European ethnicities.” But no, JFC, that is exactly what he said.
