Republicans in Texas are hiding from the gun issue as some pundits & politicians use Allen, TX.

While hosts like Jake Tapper gave Republicans a pass on the gun issue, Jen Psaki and Congressman Colin Allred nailed the gun narrative.

Republicans failed.

• We have two snippets (1, 2) on the Allen, Texas, mass shooting. The dereliction of duty on the part of the Texas and national politicians are real.
• This weekend’s Ask Egberto Anything was powerful. I want to address one item specifically from one of the attendees of our online meet-up of the PDR Posse. He was worried that our politics may have got to the point of no return. I have heard his sentiment echoed by too many. We will discuss how we take control of our politics.
• Trump is beating Biden on the economy and in a hypothetical race. in the latest ABC poll. Why? Hell, marketing is not the Democrats’ forte. Corporations convince Americans to purchase bottled water that is no better or maybe worse than virtually free water,
• Gunman in Allen mall shooting may have had right-wing extremist beliefs: The gunman who opened fire on an outlet mall in this Dallas suburb Saturday, killing at least eight people, was a man in his early 30s who may have had white supremacist or neo-Nazi beliefs, people familiar with the investigation said Sunday. Mauricio Garcia had multiple weapons on him and in his nearby car, said people familiar with the investigation who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the ongoing probe.
• After Allen shooting, Texas Republican leaders downplay guns, focus on mental health: After a mass shooting on Saturday at an Allen outlet mall ended with eight people dead, Texas Republicans are doubling down on their resistance to gun control legislation. A gunman used an AR-15-style weapon to open fire on shoppers on Saturday afternoon, killing eight people and injuring at least seven others in the suburb 25 miles north of Dallas. The massacre ended when a police officer, already at the scene, killed the gunman.
