Please use your personal page for this. You are a government official and separation of church and state is STILL a THING!!

"I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between Church & State". Thomas Jefferson.

We love you Dan. We used to listen to you on the radio when we lived near Houston. Now you are our Lt. Governor. We’re so proud of you!

Praying for you sir and hope you heal 💯! Thank you for your Sunday posts! All the saints join with you in celebrating our risen Lord! It sure ruffles the feathers of all the demons out there! Speak Jesus! I love it! 🙏🏼🙌🏼🤗

It’s so sad that so many of you are being forced to read this scripture every Sunday. I hope one day you can escape and no longer be forced to follow these posts.

May God continue to bless you and Jan in all that you do for our great state. Keep fighting the good fight sir.

Thank you for your inspiring message. It makes me think of the divine words of Thomas Jefferson in his letter to the Danbury Baptists: "Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between Man & his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, & not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between Church & State."

Walk the walk, don't just talk the talk! Faith without works is dead, sir. When you actually uphold the ethics, morals and principles outlined in the book you so love to quote, you will earn my respect. Until then, go away!

Speedy recovery Dan ! Hope you get well soon !

Thank you for being faithful to give us a scripture every week. We're so very proud of you, Dan. Keep on! And please give us a heartbeat law!!! And please make sure marijuana stays illegal in Texas.🇺🇸🇺🇸✝🇺🇸🇺🇸✝🇺🇸🇺🇸✝🇺🇸🇺🇸

Thank you, Dan Patrick!

Keep on posting Dan, glad the Dr. was able to find the problem and fix it.

Is that what the sound of crickets means when I listened for the glory of god? I thought they were just trying to get laid.

Many of your constituents don't believe in your sky god.

Thank you Dan. Have a blessed day.

Speedy recovery,sir.

And yet, you're still in office. Prayers aren't working.

"May his days be few; may another take his place of leadership" -Psalm 109:8

"And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full." -Matthew 6:5

Did the heavens declare to support funding for an ineffective wall, too?

As good Christians we should be concerned with the health and welfare of all not the few anointed ones.

Wow, is that we're calling sunshine and rain?

And Cannabis is a god send. So why are we denied its use?

Which god is this? There are so many.

Creation declares the creator!

"You can all go to hell- I'm going to Texas"- so dear to our incredible Texas history! Happy Birthday Davy Crockett!❤

The Alamo: the official "participation trophy" of the state of Texas.

Happy birthday. I am also related to Davy

He doesn't have Birthdays anymore. !

REMEMBER THE ALAMO!

Went to Davy's birthplace deep in East Tennessee. Didn't know he was born in a KOA campground. Happy birthday Davy!

History would have changed if Davy knew how much he was going to pay in property taxes in Texas. He would've stayed in Tennessee. WE NEED REAL TAX REFORM! Happy Birthday Davy!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID CROCKETT!

My hero, when I was young I wore his (my) hat everywhere! Happy Birthday Mr. Crockett!🤠

Happy Birthday, Davey Crockett

And to his memories, HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎂🎉🎈🎊🎁

and his wife is buried at the Acton Cemetery near Granbury. It is the smallest State Park in Texas. It consists of Mrs. Crockett and her children. Acton State Park....check it out.

Happy Birthday Davy.

One of our Best Tennesseans Great example of how someone who comes to the State helps to Improve it!

So..... You use a kitschy line from a Disney production meant to make money off of a legend as a memorial? Wow, well I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Money IS the root of all Republicans, after all.

Maybe you should follow some of his advice.... “Whenever I had anything and saw a fellow being suffering, I was more anxious to relieve him than to benefit myself. And this is one of the true secrets of my being a poor man to this day.” Davy Crockett

Happy Birthday Davy

Happy Birthday Davy!

Thinking and exploring. The spirit of Texas. "Be always sure you're right - then go ahead." - Davey Crockett.

Davy would've loved to kick your ass, Dan.

I grew up singing the Davy Crockett song.🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Amen and God bless you and your family!

Used to believe I actually was him as a child

Thanks, Davy, for your ongoing efforts for our country initially, and then especially for Texas!

Born on a mountain top in Tennessee, ..Davy, Davy Crockett, King of the wild frontier.

As an educator, reading these comments made me incredibly sad. I believe it is impossible to have a great nation without strong public schools. My colleagues and I have no other “agenda” other than seeing every single student having the tools to live a life of purpose and the ability to turn their dreams to reality.

What a bunch of crap! Schools are improving because of dedicated, hardworking teachers who work long, hard hours in spite of mediocre pay, insufficient funding and endless testing. And you thought it was because you started grading them? You’re even dumber than I thought!

Get the federal government out of education. Get rId of the Dept. of Education, return authority, and taxes back to the local school districts, let the parents be the judge of their child’s education, get the unions and government out of it.

We were 40th in education this year WHILE IN THE LEGISLATIVE SESSION!!! Like I think for a while we were neck and neck with Mississippi! But coincidentally we were still first in prison population. So why don’t you just tell everybody what they wanna hear while I tell everybody the truth and then you can eat a dick on Fox?!

Teachers, I encourage you to provide examples of the unruly kids you have. Bring this issue to the public eye.

Cutting funding to public education so charter for profit schools donate to your reelection. Also poorly educated people are more likely to vote Republican because educated people tend not to vote against their own interests. It is an excellent strategy for maintaining you grip on power. Very Sun Su. Extremely immoral just as one would expect from you.

You know what would make a Yuuuge difference? Stop screwing special needs kids! Stop marginalizing and punishing them because of their disabilities. Stop pretending they’re being given an education like passing UNO off as PE. Of course my daughter made it through 4 years of high school without wearing a pair of gym shorts, despite being forced to buy a few pair, so maybe it isn’t just special needs kids getting screwed. The appearance is everything though - so keep up the appearance...

Quit giving kids participation trophies and bring back the paddle!

So Dan what are you going to do to help the D and F schools? You going to cut their funding? Why don’t you help them by providing teacher aids? These schools have students that don’t want to learn, disrupts classes and prevents teachers from completing their lesson plans because they have to deal with a disruptive student. Teachers have it rough and have to deal with these kids that will tell them they don’t want to learn. I truly respect teachers for their patience.

How can you possibly rate what a school and their students are capable of on the backs of one flawed test????? We as teachers have NO control over what each student has gone through on those testing days. We have no control over their effort in taking those tests, or the parents thoughts on the perceived importance in them. These tests in no way show the caring and hard work put into the teaching of these students, nor what the students have learned or are capable of, or how much they have improved in their academic successes. How is it fair to students or schools when these tests dont take into consideration our special ed populations? We have 6th grade students that may read on 4th grade level of comprehension but have to take a 6th grade test.this student may have gained 2 years in reading comprehension that year, but that is not shown. These scores are not based on what parents believe them to be based on.

You are such a joke. You get excited hoping can put public schools down more and line your pockets in charter school money.

Get ride of that stupid test. It does not reflect anything. Semester test on what they actually learned and old fashion studying help me make A's. Measure by that. Not stupid money grab test that don't amount to a hill of beans. And for Goodness sakes, fund our schools already. Work on relational aggression in schools and flexible learning hours for students who do better in noon and evenings, not just mornings. Let we the people have say so. Get rid of that test.

You need to talk to more teachers and parents. I say this as a teacher in an “A” district. You are killing education.

Where is Sen Dr. Donna Campbell's study? Oh, yeah she made that shit up.

Yes but they are inaccurate. The school my son went to was not allowed to pull out of an F rating even though they had raised their actual scores, but because they had a low enrollment. The A-F rating system is just another fraud being perpetuated by people trying to misappropriate funds. If you have a bad rating you are forced to hire them to get your scores up even if you know doing so is impossible. It's a scam people.

Honestly, though - I do think the abstraction may not get the point across... It should be: You did well and exceeded expectations / You accomplished the standard parameters of a successful outcome / You barely accomplished what was needed / You did not meet expectations / You weren't even close / You've failed / You've failed and shamed your family / You are a blight on society and have made everyone else in the room stupider. Essentially, just use a Yelp! style system.

They should get their ratings from students and parents, not the government which lets them slide on everything we don't want.

I admit I don’t know the workings of this teaching situation these days. But seems to me if we just teach the basics in grades 1/12, we would be better off than emphasis on all this tech, and social revolution junk. Teach math, geography history, civics and insist on parent input for unruly students....no Nonsense and no tolerance.

Stop allowing schools to push failing students through. No participation trophies should be given out as that is not fair to those students who actually applied themselves

You, Paxton & Abbott have an "F" rating.

How do letter grades change anything. Did the district get to use all the tax money from their district? It really looks like a big push for Charters and private schools which of course have no standards so they never fail and only except the kids they want. You can do better.

Get rid of the stars test. Children are not being taught how to write, cursive, history and many more things, our children are being dumb down.

Good luck!

The rating has a flaw. A school can earn a “B” rating and still have detrimental academics. If the school has students passing TSI Exams or meeting the CCMR and still have horrible STAAR Scores, the school can show a “B” rating which is a false positive.

So failing schools... get less funding... which help kids... improve how?

Thanks for your service!

Thank you for your service.

20th Special Forces Group, early 1970's. You are airborne until the day you die!

Praying for Dan Patrick. Psalms 109:8

Prayers for him

You back the blue, any thoughts on the multiple police injured by high powered equipment? Awfully quiet

Nope. I think I'll stay in that perfectly good C-130, thank you. 🙂

Armed forces do deserve our thanks not politicians giving away free benefits at taxpayers expense for non us citizens thank you dan

I graduated from Airborne School in August 1971 and still remember heading straight to the Fort Benning Book Store to buy everything that had an Airborne Jump Wings emblem on it.

How many different days do we recognize government employees?

How is that study Dr. Campbell coming along

Question if Patrick and Trump jumped out of a plane without a parachute who would land first. Answer. WHO CARES

Geronimo!

It’s also national roller coaster day, national rum day, and national tell a joke day. nationaldaycalendar.com/latest-posts/

Okay, okay, haha, Dan, I get it: your spouse knows this: praise the sweaty uniformed men and women who act on orders. Your panties must be in a wad daily, squirming with both lust and joy for the day der fuhrer Drumph chooses his official flag.

Diane Davis Dan don’t even know God . So how are his prayers powerful? What he needs to do is action on stopping bad people from buying guns.

I just wish you were truly sincere Dan. If you were a true public servant...you would work to ban Military Guns in the hands of unbalanced hate filled young white males instead of siding with the hate monger in chief on his favorite network...have a conscience and DO BETTER!

More thoughts and prayers, Dannie-Boy? What are YOU going to actually do to keep this from happening again?

What are you doing to stop this. I really don’t care about your thoughts and prayers and I am sure you will be on Fox News again soon to talk about your thoughts and prayers.

Thoughts and prayers are NOT fixing this! Prayer vigils soothe the hurt for some. We need real answers to these tragedies!

You have never lost a kid in a mass shooting we understand why you don’t care and u can only offer thoughts and prayers to the families of the victims

God Bless you sir! Thank you for your support and most of all your POWERFUL prayers for the people of El Paso and Daytona. We support out Texas leaders 💯!

God bless and help the family and friends of those who lost their precious loved ones. This was a horribly evil deed that caused their deaths. It's sad that some people use other people's pain for political purposes.

Another political move. Shameful when many are grieving over a senseless act. Sleep well.

Like wow, Dannie-Boy! How much you paying this army of trolls “protecting” your ass?! Almost no one responding to you is a constituent. Whatcha gotta say ‘bout that, Dannie-Boy?

How much NRA money is in your pocket. You have done NOTHING to make us safer. Nothing. This is just a photo op for you.

Dan Patrick as long as you support trump you are part of the problem. And moving to Texas does not make you a Texan, so I doubt you will ever understand what is happening

SHOW ME THE Security Videos!

I wonder how many of the people of El Paso wanted you two there.

Thank you!

Cant wait till your gone! Thanks for nothing!

Texas needs you gone, Dan #elpasostrong

Stop your crocodile tears. I have seen more posts about you being in Fox News that actually caring about us.

I’m pretty sure he would rather you stayed home.

those that respond to Ebola by shooting health-workers and burning hospitals are like how the Republicans respond to global warming—fire people working on the problem and destroy the data. Or, in this case, ignore the problem. Republicans are good at ignorance.

Donate all your NRA campaign funds to the El Paso Victims and then we might believe you. Hypocrisy reigns from our NRA elected reps.

If only they were able to legally defend themselves without government permission to do so. I wonder who could have helped stop that bill from passing?

Gun laws and more gun laws, and the removal of citizens rights to defend themselves is not the answer, the red flag laws are not the answer. There is no answer to the evil in this world, evil doesn't follow the laws, the only answer is that people have the ability to defend themselves from the evil in this world.

Did it motivate you to do something about automatic weapons?

How many more mass shootings must happen before you do something about weapons of war on our streets? 😡
