Trump requested an election audit in Texas—which he won

Former President Donald Trump sent a letter to Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Thursday asking him to “act now” to conduct an audit of the 2020 presidential election in the state, which he carried by a comfortable six percentage points.... [+]Trump did not make any specific allegations to back up his call for an audit in Texas, saying he supports it because: “I hear Texans want an election audit!”

Trump urged the state legislature to pass House Bill 16 during the ongoing special session and asked Abbott to support the legislation, which would create a process for civil investigations into election “irregularities” if there are complaints. The bill is modeled on legislation state Sen. Paul Bettencourt introduced during an earlier special session, which he told theTrump won Texas by a much larger margin than what was expected based on polling, and the 2020 election in Texas is widely regarded as a disaster for Democrats, who also failed to take control of the state House, as they had hoped.

Why Texas Abortion Opponents Aren’t Suing Dr. Alan Braid Over New LawAntiabortion groups had vowed to sue anyone who performed the procedure after new statewide restrictions took effect. Here’s why they are reluctant to sue the first doctor who said publicly that he violated the law. It's totally irrelevant if they don't sue the first dr. Because there is already somebody who has filed a lawsuit against that Dr. Since you can't be sued multiple times on the same action, it's irrelevant what others won't do, and the Wall Street Journal should know that.

Couple was kicked out of Texas restaurant for wearing masks to protect at-risk sonNatalie Wester and her husband wore masks inside a Texas restaurant to protect their newborn son who has cystic fibrosis — so the owner kicked them out. Sick of hearing about this dumb couple who exposed themselves to Covid by eating indoors and thus endangered their kid. Texas has lost all sense of decency, science belief or kindness. Do Republicans really think this appeals to people? My heart goes out to the couple and their child. It’s really sad when we are “punished “ for trying to protect ourselves.
