I share that problem with you. I lived in Illinois for 20 years, came back to Tx. because my daughter and family are here. I'm 65 with a modest home that is paid for. But I'm appalled at what this state has devolved into in 20 years.
I apologize to my husband regularly for bringing him here.
I am so frustrated by the fact 9 million Texas registered voters stayed home in 2022. I am so frustrated by the absolute stupidity of some voters. I am so frustrated by educated professionals I know who vote Republican without investigating who they're voting for because "you know, pro-life Christians". Kyle Rittenhouse is a simpleton who is too stupid to know the Right uses him. When he and FOX News loudly implored Abbott to pardon that murderer BEFORE a sentence was delivered and old hot wheels said he was going to pardon the killer, I was upset. I feel your anger and frustration, Jeri. I share it. And I am profoundly scared how much worse it's going to get. Abbott and DeSantis are in a race to make Texas and Florida fascist havens.
At some point in the past few months, I have transitioned from тАЬworriedтАЭ to тАЬscaredтАЭ. The country is careening out of control in favor of minority rule authoritarianism. They have abandoned all pretense of actually governing by democratic means.
God, I hate this state.
If I were 30yrs younger, I would move. It was a great state to inhabit 30yrs ago.

And the people in this country who are completely fooled by the two. DeSantis is far more dangerous than the orange god

I hear your pain. Missouri just defunded librarys.
