Summary

The red wave is here and it's starting in Texas as a Republican is elected to represent the Rio Grande Valley area for the first time since 1870. With inflation and shortages at a terrifying high, is it any wonder Latinos and voters across the country are saying "no, thanks" to the Biden Administration?
