Happy Father's Day Dan Patrick! Hope it's been a beautiful day for you with your family!!
Happy father's
Happy father's day, sir. And happy father's day to all the Dad's, stepdads, grandpas, and those who are a positive male role model in the lives of our next generation. Uncles who have custody of their nephews or nieces are fathers too. This is our day, gentlemen. Let's support each other. God bless each and every one of you.
Happy Dad's Day!
Happy Father's day to all the fathers out there.
I ask you to get involved in the crisis fathers face in Texas with non enforcement of Texas Penal code 25.03 - interference with child custody. Texas children are being mentally abused by parental alienation when their noncustodial parent has a valid court order. There is a law on the books, yet the police rarely are allowed to enforce the order as written (even with the instructions to law enforcement in the decree) and DAs rarely prosecute. Please help our Texas children and protect their rights, as defined in the Texas Children's Bill of Rights, and work at getting DAs to enforce our laws.
How do you feel about the fathers and children separated at the border?
YA RIGHT !
🙏💙✝️

So when will Texas pass equal parenting??? Thousand of fathers will be denied access to their children today.
And to you ...
Nothing happy about it since the State of Texas STILL denies grandparents legal access to court ordered visitation with grand babies.

“…religion and government will both exist in greater purity, the less they are mixed together." James Madison.
"Open wide your mouth and I shall fill it." Psalms 81:10
‘Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt-offering on one of the mountains that I shall show you.’ (Genesis 22:2)
Separation of church and state does NOT mean separation of church FROM state. A public servant CAN have faith AND express their religion. The Constitution was specifically trying to avoid government run BY the tenets of religion... as in how England was run, literally, by the Church of England. You idiots have NO CLUE what the Constitution is, means, or intends. Get a friggin education.
Honor the pledge you took when you were voted into office. ALL citizens of Texas, Not just the Koch Brothers Conservative Christian Voting Base.
"See me on Fox News this week while I discuss a new reason you should fear brown people!" Patrick 3:16
Thank you Dan
Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, I admire your love of good & leading with peace. Peace be with you on this Father’s Day & may you be given strength to guard your spirit against evil to continue to go forth & do good. My mom met you; you are a man of honor when no one else is witnessing. Thank you for being kind to my mom. Blessings
Amen
Bow down to all men- isn’t that what you mean mr. patriarchy?
We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. Abraham Lincoln. "Separation of Church and State" JCC
Hey honor the emoluments clause
Just more proof that the advice from the Bible is absolute crap and it needs to be abandoned by everyone. Why should we honor our parents unless they are respectful to us? Becoming a parent is something virtually anyone can do without any kind of credentials, not all parents deserve respect.
Absolutely! Thank you Dan and happy Father’s Day to you!
They claim to know God, but by their actions deny Him.
Wow the snow flakes start early. I thought you bums don't get up to about 4pm?
Lot’s daughters certainly did.
Separation of church and state.
What do you and your exwife think about this one? You shall not commit adultery. Exodus 20:14
So fitting for today, Fathers Day. Thank you Dan Patrick for being faithful to God and his word. I look forward each week for the scripture you post.
Happy Father’s Day Dan
Yes, Always Honor your Father! Another beautiful glorious day. Thank you Lord for this day! May everyone be blessed and enjoy time with family! Dont mind the noise in the background, just the demons that are always screaming at the thought and sound of our Fathers name.
Official seal and religion? It’s ok to say it elsewhere, but has the seal. Endorsement. Hence why president having merchandise with their seal is illegal: saying government is endorsing 1 religion
According to republicans that's Donald Trump... 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dang, this is Sunday AND Fathers' Day. Is it too much to ask that you people try to be civil for one day. I wonder if your fathers would be proud of some of your hateful posts.

The low is Dan Patrick thinks he is the moral compass of Texas when, in fact, he is owned by Pharma and the alcohol industry. Danny boy, please resign and go back to your ranch where you can shovel your horse shit and not hurt anyone.
Go back to Baltimore!
Mr Patrick you are a crook and do nothing for the people of Texas. Your time in court is coming!
And you found time to change the car seat laws designed to keep children safe. You don’t have enough to do so you decide to spent time endangering babies.
Had time to pass lemonade stands but couldn't find time for plumbing licenses. Do you really care about the safety of Texans?
Abolish Property Taxes and Restore the Freedom to own property. Overhaul the public school system and get back to teaching the basics. Cut administration salaries and expenses and prosecute any superintendents who use taxpayer money for hotels and water parks etc... Pay football coaches the same as teachers. Stop Building NFL type football fields and expensive elaborate buildings. Cut spending and live off of sales tax. Give Parents school choice. While any tax can be considered theft, Taxes are a necessary evil. A sales tax is the only fair tax in which everyone gets to participate. Pursuit of happiness involves selling your labor at market value and the ability to aquire property and own said property. A one time tax at the point of sale makes sense in order to fund a government to do it's constitutional duty to ensure the continuation of the free market. Let a man keep what he earns(fruits of your labor) and what he buys (absolute ownership). If he chooses to spend what he earns or sell his property that he owns then a fair tax can be levied. Government can live on what is brought in or do without as its citizens have to do all of the time!
You failed to pass constitutional carry. You failed at family law and fathers wrights reform because y’all make money off the pore families that are trying to make it. Y’all also failed a property Tax you did nothing to relieve the hie taxes that are already in place
Texas legislature has become nearly as dysfunctional as California’s. Property tax relief was minimal
You are the low
Go back to Baltimore!
Need to pass medical marijuana are start looking for a new job
"We want "constitutional carry" Lieutenant"
Lots of LOWS!
Yeah keep on pissing on Texans and tell them it’s raining. Texas elected Republicans pander to their constituents only to cut backroom deals with their Democratic “handlers”.
You 86’d our constitutional carry rights you 86’d real property tax reform you 86’d marijuana decriminalization But you just keep on bragging on how shitty of a job y’all did...
We'll make sure that Texans don't forget your undemocratic unilateral blocking of HB63, a bipartisan bill supported by the majority of Texans. Go fuck yourself, man. You're not a good person.
No
Dumpster fire 86
Even though MOST republicans (your statement) wants lesser punishment for small amounts of marijuana, y’all didn’t do what your constituents wanted. Shame!
The three stooges: Abbott Patrick and Bonnen... all RINOs
Stay there.
I’ll ask again, you mean the session where you once again ignored the top legislative priority as listed by the Republican Party of Texas website? (With “you” being the highest ranking members of the Republican Party... Dennis Bonnen still lookin at you too, bud, thanks for screwing us, and then lying about it!) I am ashamed of our party’s leadership at this time in our great state... thank you so very much, you’ve turned our state Purple. Here you are patting yourself on the back, when the reality is, you should be ashamed of the way you have turned your back on the people who gave you your jobs.
Elected Republicans of Texas are all Democrat rats
I smell a swamp oder, stale.

Just was glad to hear you admit that taxes will not stop going up and they will still double right before some of us retire making it impossible to afford what we've worked so hard for to begin with. Loser!
What a crock of crapola, you’re all RINOs turning Texas blue
How could you even have been awake during the last legislative, and characterize it as a lot of accomplishments?
What happened to the Republican Party platform?? What happened to constitutional carry.? Too many RINOs on the take. We might as well elect Demonrats
Again with that “accomplishments” horse shit. I love this propaganda campaign tour you’re on right now trying to cover your ass.
As long as Texans re-elect these republicans the state will NEVER move forward....planning for the future is not something CON servatives do....they figure they’ll be dead and it’s NOT their problem....unfortunately this has gone on fir decades...and TexASS has become a SHIT HOLE ....all on the republicans

When is your term up?
Please make Tx a non-sanctuary state! We are being overrun by illegals!
Yeah keep on pissing on Texans and tell them it’s raining. Texas elected Republicans pander to their constituents only to cut backroom deals with their Democratic “handlers”.
You are a loser you’ll be vote you out.
I see taco benders entering our great state.
What you going to stop being a racist.An start liking Mexicans and black people...an other people of color an start defending the gay community start doing right not White...yeah right racist don't change.they just learn to hide it better.
The only change I see is more Democrats getting tax breaks to turn Texas blue and diseased illegal aliens for us to medicate then support until they die!
Those who support a Traitor are Traitors.
Maybe next session you should make 20 year olds ride in car seats.
Texas elected Republicans are gutless cowards, Bonnen is a flat out lying piece of dung. Disgusting!
TRAITOR!! LIAR!! LOCK HIM UP!!

Don’t bother, #GaslightDan. Nobody is going to buy your BS act. You jumped the shark.
Y'all blew it. This session was a bad joke. Look forward to being voted out. Y'all can vacation with Bonnen.
Protect our heritage . Pass a memorial protection act !!
Funny how you seem to do interviews with local stations only when they're owned by Sinclair.
Protect our heritage . Pass a memorial protection act !!
My big ticket is the next tax bill from the school district the country and the city
Still need to vote him out!!!
I...I...I...me...me...me. Dan, a REAL leader takes the “I” and “me” out of the equation and starts talking about “we” and “us.” It’s blatantly obvious that you’re not only all about YOU, but you’re gearing up for a run for the mansion in Austin. We Texans will not forget that you’re a random from the NE. Nice try, Yankee! 🙄
Tell those stories long enough and maybe you'll believe them... but we don't. WE ARE GETTING TAXED OUT OF OUR HOMES!
Pay property taxes from the day you buy your house. Pay for 30 yrs. house is paid off but still paying those property taxes. 20 more yrs go by still paying property taxes. Now in your 70’s on fixed income and the area property value explodes. Your rate is locked but not you APPRAISAL!! Just a few yrs of not paying property taxes you NOW can’t afford and the state takes your home. The home you paid off the home you took care of for 50yrs the home you paid taxes on for 50 yrs. tell me again how free Texans are because of your tax reform? You ran on fixing property taxes years ago and all you have done is increase your political clout and position while thousands of Texans lose their homes. Nice job dan great work 👏
DITCH DAN!
That’s it???
From all the comments it look like an 86th bust!
www.thenation.com/article/gop-quietly-hires-firm-tied-voter-fraud-scandal-work-battleground-states/
The Republicans let the Democrats decide what laws would be passed; that is why constitutional carry never went anywhere. Why did we elect Republicans, when they were going to let Democrats control the show?
You’re just another corrupt piece of shit politician!
Ol Dan has higher political aspirations...laying the groundwork.
The coastal barrier is a joke. The last several storms dumped rain, they didn't suffer from storm surge. Morons.
All talk, no real action.
I voted for you but you haven't done anything about mandatory E-verify or going after people who hire illegal aliens. You need to step up and do something.
#EndProhibition & ALLOW medical marijuana esp for patients, ALL patients not just ones dying but those fighting to live, those dealing with pain, PTSD, let's get real about the benefits & stop the demonization of this miracle herb, Common sense.Its an herb! It CURES.

GOA tracked 138 gun-related bills during this fast-paced 140-day session. Of those bills, GOA supported 48, opposed 62, and was neutral or mixed on 28. (Note: our positions on a few bills changed throughout the session based on amended versions.) Of those, GOA actively worked on 62 pieces of legislation. I presented testimony to the legislature on 40 of them — 21 good bills and 19 bad (including some which switched to neutral after we got them amended). In the end, 19 of those 138 bills actually passed: 9 we supported, 3 we opposed, and 7 on which we were neutral or mixed.
Don’t you dare mother fucker! Don’t you goddamn dare! Dan Patrick you are an asshole and a piece of shit! You know you fucked the veterans when it came to HB 1365 and hb63. I’m calling you out on your two faced bullshit. You don’t deserve your freedom if you keep those who fight for it from having any so Fuck you!
