Give me a break, Glenn Hegar. The state’s chief bean counter has now entered the fight to “protect our border” against criminals and assorted bad actors.<\/p>\n

Yep, that’s right. Glenn Hegar is seeking re-election as Texas comptroller of public accounts<\/em>. So, what — and who — does the Republican incumbent target? President Biden, who he says has allowed the border to get out of control.<\/p>\n

I saw Hegar’s TV ad for the first time this evening. I practically fell out of my chair!<\/p>\n

Wait a second! Hegar’s office is responsible for telling the Legislature how much it has on hand to appropriate every odd-numbered year when lawmakers gather in legislative session.<\/p>\n

He is the state’s top accountant, for cryin’ out loud! What is he doing now trying to inject himself into the border fight?<\/p>\n

Let’s see, I think I know. Glenn Hegar has joined the GOP demagoguery brigade.\u00a0I would laugh out loud … except that it just isn’t funny.<\/p>\n
