1. They say Texas is like its own country. It's time we finish the border wall and make in around

Texas' northern perimeter. Mexico, you can have them.

18. Mexico doesn't want them.

Mexico is smarter than that.

The FBI said it had taken into custody Jalise and Mark Middleton on suspicion of numerous acts related to the storming of the Capitol by supporters of former President Donald Trump. In court documents, the FBI said the couple was part of a group of rioters who breached the Capitol as members of Congress moved to ratify the Electoral College vote for president.

Mark Middleton was seen on police body cameras wearing a Trump beanie while pushing against the barricades and the police line with his body. As officers repeatedly ordered Mark Middleton and other rioters to “get back,” Mark Middleton was heard yelling “expletive you!” as he continued to push against the barricade, court records show. He also reportedly grabbed an officer’s hand or wrist and pulled the officer forward.

At the same time, Jalise Middleton reportedly grabbed and striked the same officer over the barricade with her hand. She, too, was wearing a Trump beanie, officials said.

The two are also accused of grappling with and striking a second officer, as well, records show.

10. Now the feds know where to find him, when it's time to arrest him

[calimary]

12. "Fink" is misspelled, I see.

There are no “fine” republi-CONS, candidates OR otherwise.

No such thing.

13. But dont they HAVE to let him run if he qualifies? Havent we seen it before?

I think there was some guy in Illinois who was disavowed by the party but still ran anyway. And i think David Duke did it too

14. Can we just let Tejas go now? Please?

I know, I know, Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio and El Paso, but there are jobs up here and we need the population increase. A bit cold in the winter, but our power stays on and our windmills work fine even when it's sub zero. Oh, and our winter is the price we pay for a glorious summer that won't kill you in its own right.
