"Do not remove the ancient landmark,
Nor enter the fields of the fatherless;"
Proverbs 23:10
Ahem?!?
Highlights:
Wow.
We should probably start out with a disclosure: We've met Mauro Garza a couple times. Don't know him well, but we have met. He's always struck this author as a bit of a patriotic simpleton. Certainly didn't see this coming.
Suffice to say: At a minimum, Racquel Rodriguez must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. To the extent that he had foreknowledge of her activities, Mauro Garza certainly should as well. Whether or not the Bexar county DA chooses to prosecute is another matter entirely.
That being said, the whole thing is bizarre. With some voters, she's helping them vote straight Democrat. With others, she wants them to vote Republican. Sometimes she's trying to faithfully execute the voter's choice, others she's actively trying to influence voters. Just odd.
Unfortunately, we now know (not that there was much doubt previously) why THE REPUBLICANS killed the election integrity bills last session. No, really, bang up job Stephanie Klick. You too Valoree Swanson.
Even if it doesn't always break down into a neat partisan narrative, the process as a whole couldn't be less trustworthy.
Bottom Line: There's a lot we don't know, but none of what we do know looks good.
- Racquel Rodriguez working for Mauro Garza.
- Republican candidate for U.S. House in the District currently represented by Democrat Joaquin Castro.
- Note: West side of San Antonio.
- Project Veritas paid her $500 to tag along.
- If the first woman she visited was voting for Lloyd Doggett (CD-35), why is someone working in the Castro/Garza district (CD-20) even talking to her?!?
- Rodriguez confesses to several known illegalities.
- Unidentified third party was filling out mail in ballots on behalf of the dead.
- "Mauro allowed me $2500 to buy gifts."
- What kind of IDIOT do you have to be to discuss any of this in a text message?!?
- If James O'Keefe thinks there's anything "new" about the "normal" of shady election practices in Texas, he needs to learn more about Lyndon Johnson.
Wow.
