.@debber66 and I react to Texas Representative Dade Phelan’s bill to make certain types of political memes illegal in Texas.

In this episode, Dinesh and Debbie discuss Mark Zuckerberg’s friends without benefits, Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s human smuggler job, Trump’s cartel solution, Newark’s air traffic controller problem, and Texas’ own state rep. Dade Phelan who has made making memes illegal in Texas.

Looking for the perfect PRO-TRUMP gag gift?

Dade Phelan’s HB 366 is textbook bureaucratic overreach disguised as election integrity. The bill’s vague language and threat of jail time for unlabeled memes in political ads set a dangerous precedent—turning satire into a Class A misdemeanor. Texas politicians claim they’re fighting AI deepfakes, but the real target is grassroots dissent. When bureaucrats police humor, you know they’re scared of accountability. This isn’t about protecting voters—it’s about shielding insiders from criticism. Government shouldn’t play meme cop. Let the free market of ideas decide what’s credible, not Austin’s nanny state.

@Debber66 Hey, dumbass. Have you ever heard of the 1st amendment? If you don't like what is said about politics or to you about your politics, GTFO of office.

@Debber66 Apparently he missed the real purpose of the 1st Amendment…founding fathers were specifically speaking of freedom of political speech.

@Debber66 Absolutely 100% no. If someone posts a meme that's a threat to children, set up sting, arrest & imprison. But do not sneak a foot in the door for the rest of us under the guise of protecting the children. We should be protecting the children anyway. Sneaky evil doers.

@Debber66 That is crazy.. it is our 1st Amendment right… they need to be removed from office… they are not upholding our constitutional rights!

@Debber66 Ridiculous

@Debber66 So now Texas politicians want to ban memes? That’s straight-up censorship. Memes are just the modern way people speak out—funny, blunt, and honest. Taking that away isn’t protecting anything, it’s just silencing people.

@Debber66 Good

@Debber66 I envisioned TX as being a freedom loving state, but once I moved here from a very blue state, I suffered from cognitive dissonance. My first clue that something wasn't Kosher is practically all neighborhoods are HOAs. An anti-American concept if I have ever seen one.
