    Seems Greg Abbott managed to spark a little "Freedom Convoy" of his own - against his stupid-ass policies:

    Abbott's inspections are hurting cross-border trade and he full admits he doesn't give a shit:

    Trucks crossing the border are already subject to Federal inspections but Abbott ordered the Texas cops to perform their own checks, hence the delays.

    I'm betting FOX won't cover this convoy, whereas they could have covered the Canadian one in Tucker's jizz alone.

    Why don't you just predict every thread, and then you won't have to click 'em open.
    Hell, just make-believe the whole board, all day, every day, then you can log off, and fuck off.
    That'd be great.

    Then I'd be you, and I'd have to give up my personal hygiene regimen.

    I'm imagining the board?
    You're a product of my imagination?
    No, I'd have a Japanese wizard feeding you an excrement pot pie enchilada in an adult sized high-chair by now.
    There's no other way I'd let an annoying character like you turn out.

    Anyways, good on them for sticking it to Abbott without ruining the lives and livelihoods of people who live around the area.

    You know, protesting the right way :)

    Yeah, but "poo" is too cute.
    Makes it like UA's doing a Double Dare stunt, and not being tortured.
    Tortures should sound medical.
    IMHO.

    I was only referencing my enticing presence in such a thing rather than making an offer to Al. Unlike @Jenee I do have some standards. I used to think they were not there, but obviously there are not enough drugs in the world to warp my mind enough to participate in such things with such a person. Considering who I know I have willingly fucked you have to be a special sort of sleaze to get refused from my glory hole.

    By special I do mean special ed rejects.

    I get the impression that Mexican authorities threw him a face-saving bone by agreeing to some sort of "tightened security". :spock:

    I sit corrected. It was this afternoon and really does nothing to alleviate the backlog. :jayzus:


    Gov. Greg Abbott eases state inspections at one commercial bridge, as trade remains snarled across the border
    The move provides little relief as trade between Texas and Mexico is hampered along the border because of Abbott’s order. The Colombia bridge is just one of 13 commercial crossings between the two countries and the only one connected to Nuevo León.

    He better do it because that is the Trump way, and Desantis is banning abortion and History class as we speak. You are not going to win being Mittens Romnifeller anymore.
