  1. Last chance to vote in Texas' election runoffs, which end at 7 PM (EDIT: a few areas still have voting until 8 PM). If we're ending up with the GOP winning again, these guys would all at least run the government better than Ken Paxton: John Cornyn for Senate, Chip Roy for AG, Jim Wright for Railroad Commissioner, and Alison Fox for the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. nbcnews.com/politics/2026-prim

  2. 🚨 A bill that could deport people for their beliefs? That’s not policy, that’s a constitutional crisis. The MAMDANI Act pushes dangerous limits on free speech and due process.

  4. His bill's not supposed to pass; I wonder if it will even make it out of committee. He wants to rewrite #immigration #law to make the promotion of #socialism a deportable offense. The "#MAMDANI Act" LOL
    Last year he introduced the "Sharia-Free America Act" to eject anyone following #ShariaLaw. He calls all #Muslims terrorists while being a precious #snowflake.
    What a piece of work he is, now running for TX A.G.

  10. Jim Newell's insightful May 3 column unpacks the Republican Party's internal strife under Trump’s influence, contrasting it with Reagan's cooperative approach. As Trump pushes for Medicaid cuts, GOP lawmakers are deeply divided, particularly in swing districts. The ongoing debate over the party's priorities highlights significant challenges in governance during a critical fiscal period. Curious about the full story?

    Rebellion in the gop , Chip Roy is one of the 38 republicans with some spine who voted against the Trump/Musk spending bill yesterday;

    “ My position is simple—I am not going to raise or suspend the debt ceiling (racking up more debt) without significant & real spending cuts attached to it,” Roy wrote on X. “I’ve been negotiating to that end. No apologies. CC: @realDonaldTrump @SpeakerJohnson @SenJohnThune @freedomcaucus.” newrepublic.com/post/189588/ch

  15. Yesterday, Chip Roy, Texas 21st cong. district rep said, in a defense of Pete Hegseth,

    "We've all had some indiscretions in our past and things like that"

    Which sounds like a confession of having raped in the past, to me, and which "indescretion" behaviors were not disclosed to November's voters.

    And today, I can find no commentary on those comments anywhere.

    Casual reference to prior violence and crime on women's bodies and psyches is now just a U.S. norm. A defence, even!

  19. “The CR should be into next year, not into the lame duck,” said Rep #JimJordan (R-OH). “Because you want to give the *new president* a chance to weigh in on what we spend & where we spend it.”

    “We know there’s going to be a CR. I think that CR will go into [2025],” said Rep #ChipRoy (R-#Texas). “I think you shouldn’t drop it into a lame duck, because frankly nothing good happens for America in a lame duck.”

  20. …in signs of trouble late Wed, the #House Rules Cmte failed to approve the #border #security bill because 3 #Republicans on the panel — Reps #ChipRoy, #ThomasMassie, & #RalphNorman — refused to support it, meaning the panel adjourned w/o action. Democrats have no interest in backing the #GOP border proposal.
    
The 3 separate bills that fund #military #aid for #Israel, #Ukraine & #Taiwan largely mirror the $95B #Senate-passed #NationalSecurity supplemental.

  21. "Major law firms and numerous prominent corporations are financially backing Roy's reelection campaign, according to a Popular Information analysis of federal campaign finance filings."

    These law firms include Covington & Burling and Akin Gump, both D.C.-based.

  22. "Congressman Chip Roy (R-TX) is publicly urging Texas to ignore the Supreme Court. In previously unreported comments, Roy explained that he feared his position would push the country into "a post-constitutional world." But, Roy said, the Supreme Court is 'pushing our hand' by issuing a ruling related to the southern border that he opposes, and the Supreme Court needs to 'feel the pressure.'"
