The crew met up at St. Elmo Brewing to discuss the YUGE scandal rocking the pink done. Normally this time of the year all you hear are crickets coming from the capitol but an GIANT unforced error now threatens the House Speakers' tenure. We break it down...We also discuss Texodus, the recent Texit of GOP members of Congress who don't seem to like there new position as the minority party. Whomp Whomp! Many of these are vulnerable seats and Dems have a great opportunity to flip them. Make no mistake Texas is a battleground.
