Pedro Gonzalez has written a very interesting and revealing piece in Newsmax about how Texas’s Lincoln Project is targeting Allen West. Texans must understand that the establishment hates that it’s being held to a higher standard this session and will work to take back control of the party. This piece does an excellent job showing how those efforts are already underway.
