operating in the same #txlege universe:
1) TPPF chief economist w/eugenecist take on why TX should open: "mostly elderly & Hispanics dying"
2. TPPF vicechair: founder, Empower Texans
3. Empower has 2 megadonors (Dunn+Farris Wilks)
4. Wilks: top donor to TX leading antivax group

I forgot to mention that Empower Texans + its cofounding donor & TPPF board member James Leininger loaned now-Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick $500k & gave him ~$1m to get him through his 2014 #txlege primary so he could become Lt. Gov. and say things like this: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/texas-lt-gov-dan-patrick-says-grandparents-are-willing-to-die-to-save-economy-for-their-grandkids-2020-03-23

Here's TPPF vice chair + Empower founder flying Dan Patrick out to Midland on a private jet, 4 days before the primary when Patrick was first running for Lt. Governor.
