Remember how Greg Abbott and various Republicans at his press event called Beto "sick" for "politicizing" Uvalde, just because he rightly pointed out how the Texas GOP had loosened gun laws? They kept saying it was "too soon", as national Republicans always say it's "too soon" after every mass shooting.
Well on Monday an abandoned truck was discovered in San Antonio with a bunch of migrants inside, with many dead apparently from heatstroke. It's a tragedy, but fucking Abbott immediately blamed those deaths on Biden's "open borders." Fucking hypocrite.
(Anyway, Congress did manage to pass a new gun control law, though it didn't go as far as we wanted.) The Supreme Court also decided to just unload a whole bunch of horrible rulings in addition to the abortion ruling that we already knew about. There have been massive protests all weekend, so I hope there will be enough outrage that we can expand the Senate majority and finally get stuff done. At least Ketanji Brown Jackson got sworn in.
