Bless God on this beautiful Texas Lord’s day.
As bad as things are right now, we have many things to be thankful for and praise the Lord for!
Keep doing what is right Dan. These people are out to destroy America. Fight on!
Makes me happy to see all the comments from folks who don’t fall for this kind of religious pandering from a politician.
Then, please follow the teachings of Christ.
“The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. An evil soul producing holy witness Is like a villain with a smiling cheek, A goodly apple rotten at the heart. O, what a goodly outside falsehood hath!” Shakespeare
And Dan Patrick keeps pushing his beliefs on his official Facebook page.
“…religion and government will both exist in greater purity, the less they are mixed together." James Madison.
Gross. You’re an elected official, not a pastor. Stay in your lane. Can’t wait to vote you out.
“Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.” Matthew 6:1
Praise God for the freedom we have to openly Praise the LORD! Keep praising, sir, and don't pay any attention to the haters.
Ok but when are you going to start acting like a Christian?
Thank you so much & God bless all . Hope soon everyone's will be Vaccinated . Texas doing well with Vaccinated . Hospitalization declined & death toll also reduce . God blessing .
Isn't this guy a used car salesman or something?
Lord help us from these Texas politicians
Amen!
Just fix the power grid and shut up with the strained attempt at piety! Or- RESIGN!
Question everything!
So you think you are an example of Christianity?
Little known fact: Ted Cruz actually flew on that same flight path to Cancun during the snow storm.
Praise God for our Great State of Texas, but crony capitalist Patrick feel free to resign now and go back to Maryland.
Sir, you need to put HB 1927 up for a vote in the senate. That lame excuse you used back in 2017 doesn't hold water. Vote Constitutional Carry into law now.
Preacher Dan at it again. This is not your pulpit and we are constituents not your congregation.
Why?

Proud to be in San Antonio today to unveil the new Plaza exhibit, which replicates a significant moment for the 1836 Alamo fort—featuring the cannon station where an “18-pounder” was fired at the start of the 13-day siege. A big day for Texas and America! bit.ly/3mScv0w ...

Thank you for joining us today and your steadfast support of the Alamo plan, Lt. Governor. Great to see you.
So disappointed in my Texas leaders...that "New Day in Texas" didn't last long!!
The real story of the Alamo has to do with land grants that were given and then tried to be rescinded by a greedy Mexican dictator.. Santa Ana. Any other story is B.S.
Constitutional Carry please. That cannon protected our rights. Time for you to do the same. Give Texans the right to protect themselves without having to pay for permission. Just a small piece of the freedoms our ancestors fought for.
WE WANT OUR 2ND AMENDMENT RIGHTS DAN PATRICK!! CRIMINALS ALREADY HAVE WEAPONS!! WE DON'T WANT PERMISSION TO DEFEND OURSELVES!!
“Sixty percent of state voters now back making cannabis legal “for any use,” the University of Texas and Texas Tribune survey found. That compares to just 42 percent who said the same back in 2010.” Please do not block extension of medical marijuana rules and conditions covered. Many Republicans like me support this .
The Texas House has done the job the majority of Texans want done on Constitutional Carry Mr. Patrick. Now it's up to you and the Texas Senate to get this through to the Governor for signature!!!
Great Team! Remember the Alamo! ❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
Surprised the anti-gun mayor came along for the photo op. Wonderful to see the Alamo getting some good press, though.
Thank you for standing up for the Alamo that Texans love ❤️!!
Lt Gov, commemorating the Alamo is like ZZ Top's South's Gonna Do it Again = Lose. Maybe do some kind of San Jacinto thang instead. 2022 = be there. It will be like the Alamo for you.
Thank you for Share it's great to see you George P. Bush and Texas LT. Governor.
Our Texas History and our Countrys History is under threat it is the plan of the DC PUPPIT MASTERS to distroy our history they have already destroyed some of it untill it became protected TRUMP DID THAT FOR ALL OF US. I am proud of our Texas History and thank you all for your help in improving and saving our History. God Bless Texas.
George p bush needs the go back to Florida. Vote him out!
That cannon is pointed right at Dan.
Cannon should be aimed a bit more to the right. 😁
Finally, a job you might actually be good at!
Mr. Patrick - pls make a statement about HERD IMMUNITY, that we have more than achieved it.
Patrick and Bush without a mask...Nirenberg still wearin' his face diaper, even after being vaccinated...what a joke he is!
Dan, move just a wee bit more to your right so that you are staring down the barrel of the artillery piece.
I notice the cannon is facing in the right direction
A big day for Texas was the battle of San Jacinto April 21, 1836 which eventually led to the independence of Texas, AZ, NM, CA all the way to Las Vegas, MX it was not The Alamo but Harrisburg (east Houston) the site of the First Capitol of Texas. Learn your history
I can't wait til we vote you out.
Why are you not busy fixing our power grid where you are complicit in killing 200 Texans! That will be your legacy
Who is in the facemask? Can't tell who it is???

Corporations Attack Election Security Bill - Dan Patrick, Lieutenant Governor

You let them they will do we don’t need them they all started as mom and pop stores wonder what their parents would say about holding hostage the very citizens that got them where they are at shut them down give them their money back
Texas want HB 1927, please perform your duty and get this passed!!!!
Texas is a gerrymander state to the extreme. Saying you were voted in by the conservative republicans leaves out all the people that didn’t vote for you. You have an agenda that doesn’t include all the residents of Texas. You don’t want anyone with a different voice to be heard. You only work for the few and not the whole state. You want to control, not govern.
The democrats broke the current election laws and we think changing them will make any difference?? I doubt it. Remember the devil is devious and deceptive.
Great! Even though they’re talking out both sides of their mouth cause they send you guys millions in campaign contributions, they at least give face to the public who all know you guys are rotten, schemers trying to silence those who don’t want to vote for you.
"Constitutional carry faces an uncertain future in the Texas Senate. Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick has refused to allow debate on the issue in the past. This week I heard from law enforcement and Capitol sources that Patrick was asking police officials to oppose Schafer’s legislation."
Lt Gov - you would be a great US Senator!
stop calling it election security, it is voter suppression. If it secures anything it secures the GOP will always win because they cannot win any other way than cheat.
The only "election security" this bill provides is security for the GOP. Corporations are wisely following the will of the people in objecting to it. What if - and this is radical, I know - the TX Legislature actually supported the people for a change?
If you were a better leader, you wouldn’t be afraid of voters.
You should definitely punish them by implementing corporate taxes. Increasing the minimum wage would be good punishment too.
It's suppression, not security. Resign, felon.
If there is no voter fraud as proven by AG Ken Paxton, why do we need an election security bill? Voter suppression. If you cannot win by making policy for the benefit of the people of Texas, then cheating and suppressing is the only way you can win.
And, there goes your corporate donations! LOL
Lot of whiners on here complaining of voter suppression, I call it election integrity.
These corporations want to do here what the CCP did to Hong Kong and Shanghai. This means they've turned Commie and have no loyalty to the USA, same as BLM and Antifa.
This administration is completely clueless as to the destruction going on in America and actually act like they are contributing to it. Time for Texas to TEXIT ! We got to get out before America falls completely apart. STAND PROUD, SPEAK LOUD ! TEXIT NOW ! ! ! If anyone agrees, please go to TNM.me to see how we can actually do this.
It's not your election security bill Dan, it's your voter suppression bill they object to.
Just because you're trying to "secure" the election so only your team can win doesn't make it a security bill. Stop trying to rig elections.
Corporations are not attacking, they're standing up for the citizens who buy their products. You guys seem to think you bought those corporations when you gave them the tax breaks. smh
Republicans have been investigating voter fraud for almost 2 decades. They haven't found anything, but that doesn't stop them from using it to suppress votes. How else can they get elected?
Oh. Come. On. Danny - you know your post is pure baloney. 🙄
For God's sake man, wake up and smell the coffee.
Liberal run corporations.
Corporations criticize voter suppression legislation. There. Fixed it for you.

Amen, sir. Thank you for your service. Keep Texas strong.
Let mutual love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by doing that some have entertained angels without knowing it. Remember those who are in prison, as though you were in prison with them; those who are being tortured, as though you yourselves were being tortured. Hebrews 13:1-3
Thank you for your unwavering faithfulness!
Practice what you preach!
Weren’t you one of the guys who indicated that we should let old people die so rich people can make money? Maybe you’re missing the point of Christ’s teachings? Might be better served to listen in church rather than speak...
Yes He Will Always On The Right Time Not Ours Amen
Happy blessing Sunday & everyday . God promise to love all with kindness . But ! We do have to be careful from danger . ----- People should show their kind side & big heart if they're talking about relegious . Amen .
So proud that you love Texas. So thankful you do not make things happen to benefit you
The Hope we profess? This does not apply to minorities who going to be disenfranchised by the new voter suppression law. Eliminating polling places in Harris county and giving poll watchers unlimited power only adds insult to Injury. Equal, but divided, it's your motto.
Thank you and keep up the good fight for Texas .
That pseudo RELIGEON worked for trump, eh? I've never seen so many Republicans quoting the Bible. What does the Bible say about sacrificing the elderly? That speech is clearly matching trump's most ignorant speech: for instance, "the election was a hoax".
And yet by imposing your will on others while professing this creed you unwittingly reveal you lack that same hope.

Hebrews 10:23(KJB) Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
Oh....gee, Dan....I was thinking you had already moved out of office so Tx could elect a competent lt gov instead. We are all looking forward to that day

Let us hope the LG will stop proselytizing from his government post
How can you even claim to be a follower of Christ? You are not even close to being a Christian. So please stop using words that ... falsely ... suggest you are..
Secede Texas 🤠
I’m sick and tired of your biblical verses, we are hungry, sick, uninsured, uneducated, getting shot at, and are waiting for actions not prayers
Amen!!!!
Republicans’ Beatitudes: I was hungry…. you cut my food stamps I was thirsty… you poured my water on the ground I was a stranger… you took my child and put us in cages I needed clothing and shelter… you told me to sleep on the floor I was sick…. you denied me healthcare I was in prison… for the profit of your friend Whatever you do the the least of my people you do to me Matthew. 25:42-45
Amen

Dan Patrick it is clear these new laws are pointed at the most populous counties. Why Limit voting machines and hours. I thought you wanted to make it easier for people to vote not harder. If you need to do anything you need to fix the DMV so its not so hard to get a Id.
Unless you are a person of color living in an urban area or a poor, elderly or sick person living in a rural area. I sincerely hope all Texans stand up to this attempt to take away their votes. I will vote no matter what obstacles you put in my way.
How goes finding all those voter fraud cases? If voter security is such an issue, show us the lawsuits of prosecuting voter fraud. Oh wait they were mostly republicans... oops.
If the democrats manage the rights of voting which should be only to American Citizens, register in advance, as they broadly open our borders to allow anyone disregarding of the constitution or the laws that should protect the citizens of Our Country then We already see that they create an umbrella for corruption, fraud, inequality, and every right of American People being stolen and pass to People that didn't earn it neither deserved. They are the ones creating crisis, division and unfairness, shame on them and People applauding their tactics their puppets on the chessboard floor , their sold paid media and hollow influencers that are protected with money and power.
I don't want MY vote negated by an illegal vote.
So, you are saying elections in the past have not been secure? Interesting. Sure took awhile to get concerned about that, no? Kinda like the border issues which have been ongoing for decades. What’s up with all the Federal aid slated for Texas for education via the three Coronavirus aid packages? Where is it? When will it be distributed? Or were you and the Governor just gonna stash it in the Rainy Day fund and dole it out to your corporate campaign donors?🤷♀️
Maybe not but there are hundreds of bills clearly targeted at suppressing minority and urban voters around the country. Let's see... Republicans lost important elections, they don't have any popular policy ideas and they're working to suppress voters to solve a problem that doesn't exist. Seems like there's a strong cause and effect to me.
There was no voter fraud, so no need to make it harder for people to vote. Have you ever even been at a voter precinct?
FIVE convictions for voter fraud in thirty years. Stop lying and resign.
This just in: voting at night, or from your car, is inherently not secure! Nothing we can do! We certainly can't hire more poll workers! I guess we just have to make it harder for everyone to vote! If you want to win elections, instead of suppressing the vote, perhaps you could run the state in such a way that 200 people don't needlessly freeze to death due to an unregulated, un-winterized grid.
Are you saying voter fraud is rampant in Texas and across the country? Then why did the Georgia GOP repeatedly say that their election was valid and secure? If there’s rampant fraud in Texas elections, why is the GOP continuing to win elections, here? Who is the fraud favoring?
Fix the long lines at the drivers license office. Oh wait don’t do that because that would give people ID’s they could vote with.
So, Texas AG Ken Paxton expended 22,000 staff hours to find 16 cases of incorrect addresses. And you're going to stick to the story that this legislation is badly needed to secure elections in Texas? www.houstonchronicle.com/politics/texas/article/Ken-Paxton-s-beefed-up-2020-voter-fraud-unit-1582...
It discriminates against the disabled community, which is not surprising when you support it.
Nor is gerrymandering on the surface, sir. However, you and I know this “security” reduces voters who would not be voting Republican. For things like IDs to work, for example, you’d need to fix DPS. Poor folks can’t always take the hours necessary to get them. That’s just one example. There are many. A good politician serves all of their constituents, sir. FYI.
I actually have a question about this, and if you have a valid answer I'm happy to hear it because I genuinely want to know your thoughts. How is limiting the hours that polls are open supposed to help with voter security?
Your so-called voter security measures are actually ways to make it more difficult for Urban dwellers who don't drive, the handicapped, shift workers, and minorities to vote. Any group that isn't majority Republican. You are just a lying partisan hack.
what you are doing is not security though, it's suppression. You can't spin it any other way.
Extensive Background checks for All Voters... All Rights Are Created EQUIL !
Translation: "No reasonable person would take my statements seriously."
Voter security is the Republican way to suppress the minority voter in spite of no widespread evidence of fraud.
Republicans can't get elected without voter suppression, hence the lies about voter fraud.
But voter suppressions IS voter suppression. Can you possibly think we are that ignorant?
Are you saying that our elections in Texas weren't secure in the presidential election? I guess Biden actually won here?
Maybe not, but your bills are. What you and Georgia have done is make sure that a lot of legal voters, do not vote. Plain & simple.
