Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick spoke at the Texas Public Policy Foundation s Policy Orientation on Wednesday and was asked about last week s riot at the United States Capitol.
Patrick was asked who he thought attacked the United States Capitol and Patrick didn t hold back with his answer according to the Dallas Morning News.
“We have to admit they were Trump people. Enough of saying it’s antifa; it’s not true,” Patrick said at an Austin conference organized by the Texas Public Policy Foundation. “But we also have to say enough of the Democrats who have amnesia, who are focusing on this terrible act that happened when for all of the summer and fall they burned down police stations and offices.”
The Covid-19 pandemic has presented ugly tradeoffs between life and livelihood, and even between life and life. We don’t know the number of deaths that will result from unemployment, poverty, and social isolation over the next several years, but we know they are occurring, along with untold misery for millions more.
From the Special Series:
With fall looming, two difficult tradeoffs must be addressed: whether and how to open schools, and whether and how to play sports. Returning to normal would almost certainly contribute to the spread of the virus, increasing the risk of death for the most vulnerable. But halting these activities would incur serious economic, public health, and psychological costs. State governors, who have become major decision-makers in the pandemic, are each striking their own balance: California’s Gavin Newsom has ordered most schools in the state to close for the fall, while Texas’s Greg Abbott has left decisions in the hands of school boards.
