BLAKE FARENTHOLD BALKS AT RESIGNING WITH SOUTH TEXAS LEGACY SECURE

Add caption
Blake Farenthold's South Texas legacy, representing Brownsville and Cameron County for a time in an excruciatingly gerrymandered District 27 will not be as "pajama boy."  


As funny as it was to see the rotund politico in onesies, flanked by a cocktail waitress in lingerie, that was simply a goofy, ill-advised campaign fundraiser, not even in Brownsville, but in U.S. Navy dominated Corpus Christi.

Even the current allegations of a hostile sexual atmosphere within the Farenthold workplace, inducing vomit and emotional distress with one male communications assistant, while reducing a female assistant into a career of babysitting, had little effect on Brownsville, Cameron County.

Farenthold, now drowning in the current sexual harassment tidal wave, has eschewed resignation, instead wanting to "serve" out his term until January 2019, not "seeking" reelection.

Whatever!  But, Farenthold's everlasting footprint on south Cameron County is LNG, as he may very well have sicked the Liquified Natural Gas proprietors on Brownsville.  Note this 2013 quote:

"U.S. Representative Blake Farenthold (TX-27) today lauded the U.S. Department of Energy’s conditional authorization of Freeport LNG Expansion to export domestically produced liquefied natural gas to countries that do not have a Free Trade Agreement with the United States.

Rep. Farenthold has long highlighted the economic benefits of exporting liquid natural gas (LNG). At a March 19th hearing of the House Oversight Subcommittee on Energy Policy, Farenthold urged the Department of Energy to expedite the permitting of LNG exports as the U.S. is at the forefront of gas exploration and must act now, striking while the iron is hot to create the jobs and opportunity abundant natural gas creates."


LNG Plant Explosion 2004
Twenty years from now, when the LNG profiteers abandon the Port of Brownsville/Port Isabel, they will likely leave 28 miles of toxic, hazardous, chemical waste, 500 foot flaring towers, along with tons of metal junk.

At that point, Highway 48, the so-called Padre Island Highway should be renamed:  The Blake Farenthold Super Fund Cleanup Trail.

Thanks, Blake.  You will be remembered.

  3. Don't give Blake Fartonhold all the credit for the LNG mess. There's lots to spread around starting with our own Port of Brownsville commissioners who didn't have to open their legs and let LNG inside our still-pristine environment. For a few short-term dollars and junkets around the world, Port director Eddie Campirano and Port chairman Ralph Cowan brought this disgrace upon us and our children, something they probably don't have to worry about because they or their children don't live anywhere near the coming pollution. Shame on them!! And shame on the incompetent Cameron County Commissioners Court for selling us out. And shame on Oliveira, the Dirty Lucios and Fulloshit Vela all of whom rolled over for LNG. I hope they investigate what these horrible elected officials got in return for selling out their/our vote. I hate to see what the island and port isabel will look like in ten years, probably like another petrochemical wasteland along the gulf. Way to go, FUCKTARDS!!!!!!

  4. The GOP like Farthold and the Sucio Lucios would rather poison the water if it makes them a buck. Soon we won't be able to eat the fish from south padre, just like they did to the resacas. You get fish with big cancer lumps on them from the resacas. Feed that to your kids and maybe your kids get the big cancer lumps next.
