Falling

Let’s see. Governor Greg Abbott in Texas is pummeled for power failings during the Great Storm, but it probably doesn’t matter for his political career as the Texans tend to blame it on the windmills. He is further castihated for opening up Texas and ending all the coronavirus restrictions, but gets by that as well since the CDC can’t see to a normal future regardless of vaccinations.
Texas Senator and Ted Cruz and California Governor Gavin Newsom get frayed for sorta the same thematic issue: law applied to thee but not for me. I suppose Newsom’s is more systematic, and sits alongside a haphazard approach in applying and not applying covid restrictions, where with Cruz we are stuck with strained suggestions on mistreating his dog and a golden political opportunity for Alexandroa Occasio Cortez to travel and stump in Texas — so on that part it is fairthat Newsom gets a recall efgort and Cruz just has to figure out how he may beat the next Beto again in a few years.
Andrew Cuomo hangs on with more sexual misconduct allegations dropping in all the time, taking over from a prior scandal of waving aside nursing home death statistics. Hard to figure which of the two most taint a previous political strength and prefabricated self construct. I see that Senator Gillibrand chimes in at last with Call out of a double standard in femanding commemts — may be true and may be seen in the media framing — “as a woman, what say you?” — but applied to the simple matter of asking and reasking prominemt state party leaders, unless you want to claim Schumer as the only person who matters it is fair to apply the matter to the Junior Senator, winner of state-wide office.
The British Family gets its feedig at the hands of an Oprah interview with Meghan Markle lends to my generalized assortment of “probably right” so far as it goes BUT… Oh, a hypocrisy on a supposed “turn to a simple life” (replete with millions), but what I am lost on is the frustration over the “claustrophobia” of Royal life. I’m sorry but… isn’t that you are signing up for when you marry into the British Royal Family?
