Gov. Greg Abbott (R) announced a plan to open Turning Point USA chapters in every high school in Texas, the Texas Tribune reports.
Said Abbott: Let me be clear: Any school that stands in the way of a Club America program in their school should be reported immediately to the Texas Education Agency.

Texas wants to drag America to its death like James Byrd, Jr. Think of Abbott (R-racist) as the pickup truck.

allowed one of these clubs. It is a good thing they are now older and on their own.

We claim the name America like we're the only ones. I'm so sick of the "we're number one" attitude, especially since our trajectory is clearly downward. I have college educated relatives who are still high on Trump koolaid & I'm SMDH wondering what the fuck happened to these people? I used to respect them & truly admired some of them.

So, soon in Texas, your K-12 kid can get a side helping of right wing hate with his schooling.
