These kids are terrified. It should come as no surprise that some of them are acting out. But, instead of comforting these scared children, we […]

This woman confronted Ted Cruz about his continued efforts to take away her Obamacare. Then she asked him to make a commitment to take a DNA test to prove that he’s human. It’s a legitimate ask.

This is almost too disgusting to believe. But, starting in September, Texas child welfare agencies will be allowed to refuse services to LGBT children and families. Seriously. This week, Texas Governor Greg Abbot signed a disgusting bill into law. House Bill 3859 gives “protection of the rights of conscience for child welfare services providers.” This law will […]

If you thought we had heard the last of these ridiculous “bathroom bills” targeting the LGBT community, you were wrong.

Dear Conservatives…. Speaking as a lefty Liberal, I must finally admit the truth to you…you’ve been right all along about Obama invading and taking over Texas with martial law under the disguise of a so-called military operation called “Jade Helm 15.” I also have to say that it really was brilliant that you didn’t fall […]
