GET ME REWRITE: Texas GOP and its supportive billionaires party like its 1865

 

The KKK was founded on December 24, 1865.

West Texas oil billionaires Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks entered the 2024 primary election cycle wounded. 

Their political network was in the middle of a scandal over its ties to white supremacists. Republicans were calling on each other to reject the billionaires’ campaign money. And their enemies believed they were vulnerable — one bad election day from losing their grip on the state. [emphasis added]

Instead, Dunn and Wilks emerged from Tuesday perhaps stronger than ever — vanquishing old political foes, positioning their allies for a November takeover of the state Legislature, and leaving little doubt as to who is winning a vicious civil war to control the state party.

The texas gop is a very scary place!
