I see the Texas bashing is full force.
Multiple threads of oh so nastiness. It is not acceptable to bash whole groups of people, except when it is.
There are plenty of your fellow Democrats suffering in Texas. But you would rather wallow in your smugness.

Hackers Hold Man's Penis For Ransom In Digital Chastity Belt, Demand Bitcoin To Unlock
https://www.vice.com/en/article/4ad5xp/we-spoke-to-a-guy-who-got-his-dick-locked-in-a-cage-by-a-hacker|You simply can't make this stuff up.
Sam Summers was sitting at home with his penis wrapped in an internet-connected chastity cage when he got a weird message on the app that connects to the device. Someone told him they had taken control and they wanted around $1,000 in Bitcoin to give control back to Summers.
"Initially, I thought it was my partner doing that," Summers told Motherboard in a phone call. "It sounds silly, but I got a bit excited by it."
But when Summers called his partner, she told him it wasn't her, even after he told her their safe word. That's when he realized he had gotten hacked. His penis was locked in the cage, and he had no way out.

National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) Bulletin 01/27/2021
Summary
The Acting Secretary of Homeland Security has issued a National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) Bulletin due to a heightened threat environment across the United States, which DHS believes will persist in the weeks following the successful Presidential Inauguration. Information suggests that some ideologically-motivated violent extremists with objections to the exercise of governmental authority and the presidential transition, as well as other perceived grievances fueled by false narratives, could continue to mobilize to incite or commit violence.

Got my 1st Moderna COVID shot today in Fort Worth under Tarrant County Health.
Talked to one of professionals working the program. She said the Federal Government MUST take over vaccinations. The current system is an utter mess. Poor distribution system. States and counties doing a poor job.

Do you think Biden might nominate Obama to SCOTUS?
I sure would like to see that done.

Major Garrett had a great line this morning.
Said that the MSM will now have the ability to CHOOSE to cover what 45 says.
No MSM.
NO Twitter.
No Facebook.
Maybe no YouTube.
It’s like an annoying fly bring finally swatted.
