Daily Wire:
After a Texas Democrat state representative returned to Austin from Washington, D.C., where he and other Texas Democrats had flown in order to break the quorum in the House to stop the Texas GOP from passing voting bills, the Republican Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives signed a civil warrant for his arrest.
The Speaker of the Texas House of Representatives, Dade Phelan, issued the civil warrant for the arrest of state Rep. Philip Cortez from San Antonio. Phelan wrote:
1 down, 49 more to go. I guess they can’t group arrest them. lol
Lock’em up!!!!
I used to be a Texas peace officer and always delighted in the last words of an arrest warrant: “Herein fail not”
Just seems so elegant…
I hope they read him his rights, we don’t want them to screw this up. Make them pay dearly. Withhold their pay, make then pay for any and all expenses incurred while they pulled this stunt.
Perfect time for a 2am no knock raid by the Texas Rangers, lets hope he resists.
Anybody know the secret to getting democrats to leave their state?
Asking for the Maine taxpayer.
