Texas GQP Governor Eliminates All Pandemic Health Measures, Begins Coordinated Effort To Blame Immigrants For Future Increased Infection Rates & Deaths

Texas GQP Governor Greg Abbott wants to distract attention from the Texans he killed (current toll: 80) with his greed and dereliction regarding energy management. (Also: Guess who's footing the bill for the estimated $200 million in damages? Spoiler: Not the people at fault.)

Abbott has a cunning plan. He'll kill hundreds of Texans with his sociopathic dereliction regarding COVID testing. Then blame brown people! (He is also actively preventing efforts to expand tests for migrants, so he can vilify them for allegedly spreading the virus.)

Odds are, it will work. It usually does.

Governor Abbott hopes you'll forget about him killin' Texans with energy management incompetence by killin' Texans with COVID management incompetence.https://t.co/WLVU0WV4A3

GOP governors Greg Abbott of Texas and Tate Reeves of Mississippi, by lifting all COVID restrictions, are trying to distract you from their deadly failures—even if it means killing their own constituents. https://t.co/nD8DyTOPOz

"I'm scared of what this is going to look like." A Texas ICU nurse said health care workers were seeing light at the end of the tunnel, but that was "shut down" when Gov. Abbott said he was lifting the state's mask mandate and businesses' capacity limits. https://t.co/mvkXh9yDg7

The @GOP agenda:

Step 1: Create conditions for widespread chaos.

Step 2: Scapegoat your enemies.

Step 3: Profit!

I looked at the numbers this morning. Cases in TX were already rising. Actually immigrants are coming from countries with lower infection rates per 100k. They bring down the US numbers. Not increase them.

So TX Gov. Greg Abbott lifts all Covid restrictions after getting the vaccine himself, while only 7% of the rest of Texas has been fully vaccinated.

What a complete piece of shit. Are there any non-sociopaths in the GOP? pic.twitter.com/uXTI3qnRii

Abbott boasted: Texas is now "100% open". . . . Weeeelllllllll, not quite.

But you don't have the balls to open up the Governor's mansion to tours. Why not, dude?https://t.co/6oj5M3Nc8N
