Only state to fight a war for slavery twice, and proud of both times.

Currently offering two Republican Senators and 25/13 Representatives in favor of Republicans, basically a Republican supermajority.

Headquarters of the Koch propaganda empire. World headquarters of climate denial propagandists in general.

Favored state of dumbasses who are both unhinged American exceptionalists and secessionists, somehow.

America would literally be better off with Texas, and a majority of the ruling party wants it to, sooooo

Bye Felisha.
