Cornyn says he’s not going to be a thorn in Trump’s side but also isn’t “going to go out of my way to try to appease him.” “A lot of us have bent over backwards trying to get along, and obviously that doesn't make any difference to him at all,” he adds

The screwworm has shaken Texas agriculture previously. Those who lived through it in the 1950s say it was commonplace for ranchers to "scoop handfuls of worms from cattle" and other livestock. Herds decimated. Beef prices could soar, markets rattled. Buckle up, #TxLege
