    There’s no such thing as a “Republican state,” nearly every state is split somewhere between 51/49 and 60/40. There are “Republican-run states,” but inside every Republican-run state is a “Democrat-run city” which has been a convenient narrative for Republicans of late. Houston’s mayor is a Democrat, and Harris county has more registered Democrats than Republicans; in 2024 metro Houston voted for Kamala over Trump.

    Whether Abbot or Whitmire is more to blame for Houston’s violence is just a political distraction. Both bear some responsibility and I’m tired of both sides running finger-pointing narratives rather than trying to find constructive solutions.

      I hear there is a national guard bonanza going on? Maybe ask them to help get all that crime off your streets Texas.
