A good site in Texas

https://juanitajean.com/

I am sorry I failed to recommend this site before. It has been invaluable to me. There’s a lovely Molly Ivins echo in the posts written by Juanitajeanherownself, if you care to access the older entries. Susan Bankston, whose son Mark successfully represented the Sandy Hook families in their suit against the unmentionable evil, is the founder, and has, I believe, retired.

Can't recommend it highly enough---particularly for fellow Texans who need some sane political commentary.

I ran into El Jefe at a couple of Biden fundraisers in 2019. El Jefe is a good guy who I see on Facebook

Susan Bankston is a great lady and is a friend. At the funeral of her husband, Don, I was asked/ordered to take care of Susan by the State Party Chairperson, Gilberto Hinojosa, and his wife. My joke that Susan uses all of the time is that I am not scared of Gilberto but his wife scares me.
