— have all pushed variations of the theory, such as characterizing migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border as an “invasion.”Regarding the Brownsville incident, the Texas Democratic Party chairman, Gilberto Hinojosa,blasting the anti-immigrant climate fostered by Texas Republicans as they seek to pass House Bill 20, which Hinojosa described as “radical legislation that would deputize unqualified vigilantes to roam the streets.
“With H.B. 20,” Hinojosa wrote, “Texas Republicans are creating a powder keg of racial violence and are now handing the matches over to the people, attempting to turn neighbor against neighbor. Texans know their worth and deserve better from their elected representatives.” Meanwhile, Cruz and other Republicans faced renewed criticism for offering up “prayers” to the victims of the Dallas mall shooting in lieu of pushing for gun safety measures or efforts to fight extremism.
In an interview Saturday with MSNBC’s Ayman Moyheldin, Texas state Sen. Roland Gutierrez made it clear that prayers are not enough. “There is a special place in hell, Ayman, for people that have this kind of problem staring them square in the face and have done nothing about it,” the Democrat said. “I don’t care about their thoughts, and I don’t care about their prayers.”
