Stephanie Rubio and her three children have hardly had a chance to process her husband's death, and they're already suffering another heartbreak.
The family's longtime home in Fort Davis, Texas went up in flames on Tuesday as they relied on firewood to fuel the fireplace and keep warm, per CNN's Alisha Ebrahimji. The fire comes just three weeks after Stephanie's husband, Robert, died Jan. 28 from COVID-19 pneumonia complications.

Yes it makes sense for the school to follow the governor's mandate to keep travelers out of schools until they have testing showing they are clear of covid-19

Suspected hypothermia deaths in homes mount in Texas By JAMIE STENGLE and MARION RENAULT
— With the snow and ice clearing in Texas after days of unusually cold temperatures, bodies are being found of people who likely froze to death as they struggled to stay warm after electricity was cut to millions of homes
Of the around 70 deaths attributed to the snow, ice and frigid temperatures nationwide, more than a dozen were people who perished in homes that had lost their heat, and most of those were in Texas. They include an 11-year-old boy who died in his bed in Conroe, near Houston, and two older men found dead in their homes in the small West Texas town of Buffalo Gap in Taylor County

Come get me when the state managed (or lack thereof) utilities burn down an entire town and keep the power turned off on windy days because it's cheaper than Investing In Infrastructure or paying wrongful death suitd Until then your a shill and it's worse here in cali

Aidy Bryant’s Ted Cruz Has Vacation Braids, No Shame in SNL Cold Open
This past week has brought no shortage of apologies from shamefaced public figures, and who better to guide us through them than Chloe Fineman in SNL’s cold open as Britney Spears, who is definitely not sending us subliminal messages through her coded Instagram posts. Fineman-as-Spears is hosting a talkshow for celebrities on apology tours, and her first guest is Ted Cruz, played by a flawless Aidy Bryant (Cruz, of course, abandoned his constituents earlier this week during a state of emergency for a trip to Cancun). “Hola, everyone,” Cruz opens, holding a margarita and decked out in vacation braids. Bryant-as-Cruz admits that he’s not so great at “human stuff” before explaining that at least he had “the cajones to blame his actions on his young daughters.” Next up is Pete Davidson as Andrew Cuomo, who calls Bill de Blasio a “bird bitch” and squeezes out an apology. Spears’s final guest is Cecily Strong as Gina Carano, who doesn’t apologize, but does nearly break character alongside Bryant’s Cruz

>AOC schools the selfish GOP on what it means to posess and apply compassion and empathy to improve lives and relieve suffering >meanwhile, the GOP responds "She's just a poser! It's all fake! All the money is going to the Communist Workers Party! Where's her compassion for cancerous cells in a woman's womb whose body is the property of the christian sharia law patriarchy? Whatabout her lack of concern for the price gouging megacorporations that line our pockets with $millions?"

Sen. Ted Cruz released photos of himself on Twitter delivering water and meeting with Texans amid the growing controversy over the Republican lawmaker’s jetting off to tropical Cancun last week as his constituents in the Lone Star State were battling a deep-freeze, widespread power outages and burst pipes that flooded homes.
The pictures, posted on his Twitter account Saturday, showed the embattled senator carrying a case of water to several vehicles and shaking hands with a person

>compassion and empathy means crying fake tears and posing for photo ops >running a smokescreen for the governor of your home state after he got caught genocide old people in nursing homes I'm sure the people of NY who lost their families members in nursing homes to covid are grateful that she abandoned them to go stage a presser for herself in Texas.

>I'm sure the people of NY who lost their families members in nursing homes to covid are grateful that she abandoned them to go stage a presser for herself in Texas. As I said before, what do you want her to do, resurrect the dead? If she did, you rightwing snowflakes would condemn her for increasing the Social Security and Medicare payouts, lol!
>smokescreen Calling for a thorough investigation is a smokescreen? Smokescreens are the kind of shit Dear Leader cult members pull, not the left.
>In a statement released Friday afternoon, Ocasio-Cortez said, “Thousands of vulnerable New Yorkers lost their lives in nursing homes throughout the pandemic. Their loved ones and the public deserve answers and transparency from their elected leadership, and the Secretary to the Governor’s remarks warrant a full investigation.”
>As I said before, what do you want her to do, resurrect the dead? Focus on her own state and bring more pressure on Cuomo. All those pressers she's holding could be used for that, and she's be taking care of her own constituents, but that would mean making a fellow Democrat look bad.
>increasing the Social Security and Medicare payouts would have helped stopped Covid Absolute brainlet.
>Calling for a thorough investigation is a smokescreen? How much time has she spent on this vs what's happening in Texas? Why isn't she organizing in her home state, in her own district in NYC where the state was hit the hardest? Which body count is greater- the handful of deaths from the cold or the tens of thousands of genocided elderly people?
