You know what would make this even better? If all the people screaming voted these Republicans out of office. #StandWithWendy

I get it now. We follow the rules that support us and ignore the ones against us #TexasGOP #SB50 #StandwithWendy

I've lived in Texas my entire life. I've never been so ashamed and so proud at the same time. We will fight. We will win. #StandWithWendy

I need to try to sleep. More on this, the SCOTUS Voting Rights Act decision, and the upcoming SCOTUS decisions on marriage equality soon.

The chairman of the Texas Democratic Party (Gilberto Hinojosa) said he hopes Wendy runs for governor. He further stated “she has put them (GOP good ole boys) to shame and made us all very, very, very proud.”

The patriarchy is in its death throes.
