Texas Gov. Abbott -- Again, Clueless And Feckless: On Passing Of Former Pres. Jimmy Carter.

This may be smallish, when compared to his intentional actions against women's bodily autonomy, and his savage razor wire floating barriers, and his endless stream of defiance of plainly Constitutional federal mandates for all citizens of his state. . . but it (at least) certainly speaks to the low quality of help he attracts in his state's gubernatorial offices.

Apparently Greg Abbott sent out a press release without reading it. It seems he offered condolences on the passing of the great Mr. Carter to his wife of many decades, Rosalynn -- a former first lady, and gracious southern woman. The problem is that she herself had passed away in 2023. Thus far, his offices have not apologized, or corrected the record for this callously idiotic error. Here's Snopes on it:

. . .A statement issued by the office of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, marked the Dec. 29, 2024, death of former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and mistakenly extended condolences to former first lady Rosalynn Carter, who died in 2023. . . .

Onward, now -- to the continued grilling (like a hot tuna!), of one Rudolph W. Giuliani, in Manhattan. Grin.
