Ironbite-bye Santos.
Good, but there's nothing really there until they implement measures to prevent the expulsed from running again.
No way Santos can win the primary again.
There's plenty of other positions in government: and they need to bar him and everyone like him (that is to say: expulsed from their position, or otherwise found guilty of criminality.) from running at all. "He won't win" isn't the same as "ineligible to run".
Edit: I get that demanding those found guilty of crime being removed from eligibility to run in government is kinda harsh and strict. But this isn't some redemption story where he did his time, learned his lesson, and wants to make the world a better place: He literally ******* crimed just to get into office, and then he kept criming WHILE IN OFFICE. He needs to be an example of what the political system will not tolerate.

Texas GOP leaders reject ban on associating with Nazi sympathizers
Some members of the committee said such a ban, proposed two months after a prominent conservative activist was caught meeting with a famous white supremacist, might be a “slippery slope” or too vague.

The only thing that surprises me is that it was so close.
That said, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the roughly-half that tried to scrub the records included more people who had voted for the clause than against it. I know who I'd be more afraid of pissing off.

Well of course they won't ban associating with most of their voters....
Sounds like Trump.
Trump needs to be an example as well. If the courts and bureaucracy don't stomp on this jive and HARD, it'll just encourage others to keep trying.
GOP blurring faces in Jan. 6 security tapes, says Speaker Johnson

Considering the fact that keeping the faces from the DOJ would be a crime if it were true, how stupid does he have to be to say it when it's not true?
It actually works. It isn't a crime to SAY you will keep the faces from the Department of Justice. He isn't going to do the crime. But he gets street cred from a lot of people for saying that he's sticking it to the man, despite being the #3 Rank government official in the country.
