Houston is fourth largest city in the country. Soon to be 3rd. It’s the most ethnically diverse city in the country. We always have a democrat mayor. We fairly reliably vote blue (as do almost all urban areas of Texas- San Antonio, Austin, Dallas & El Paso). You know shit about Texas other than dumb stereotypes. I…

As a Houstonian who is a die-hard liberal - fuck you. You are a truly terrible shitty person. I’d wish awful things on you, but I’m not as shitty as you.

Right. Houston, a city with a black mayor and whose preceding mayor was a lesbian. That’s who you want to punish?

Yeah, that’s gross. People are dying. I live in that other purple and heavily gerrymandered state. Given the federal response, Harvey is pretty worrisome.

Wow, so much empathy. I’m sure there are no assholes in the state that you live. It must be nice to be so perfect.

You know what? I’m usually pretty civil here, but my mother and sister are both in the Houston area right now. Both voted straight D in the last election, and definitely believe in global warming.

True but voter suppression does.

The blue wave was apparent up and down the ballot on a banner night for the county’s Democrats.

Thank you! I am pretty sure the poor, mostly immigrant fishermen on the gulf Coast, or people of Houston, who time after time voted in a Democratic mayor, or the residents of my Fort Bend county (which voted blue in 2016) which had almost 20" of rain overnight, and had few tornadoes, did not personally for the people…

Can you not right now? Texas is a purple state that goes red because it’s gerrymandered to hell and back. It’s also home to Houston, the most diverse major city in the country, which is also getting hit the hardest.

Ending a streak of thin electoral margins, Harris County — the biggest battleground in ruby red Texas with a population larger than 25 other states — turned solidly blue on Tuesday with the largest presidential margin of victory in more than a decade.

don’t tar us all with the bad acts of our state leaders. we’re trying to vote them out and thwart their actions.

They basically announced they’d rather watch people drown than help them.

Just remember we are victims of horrific gerrymandering that has kept republicans in power.

On the news this morning it was pointed out that Arpaio has not yet admitted any wrongdoing, and accepting Trump’s pardon would be an admittance of guilt and then he’d possibly be opening himself up to civil suits. But to go the other way he would have to tell Trump to take his pardon and shove it, so it’ll be…

The whole “Caught my reflection, here’s a description of my ass” bit feels very textbook porn stories.
