"From" doesn't translate to "Para," or does it? No. Every local linguist we asked says "from" translates into "De" la gente." Coming from someone who prides herself in reflecting the grassroots culture, it would seem she or someone close to her would have caught the mistake.
If the purpose of the sign was to remind voters of the Lincoln quote from the Gettysburg Address, that went: "Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth," it didn't work.
Note there is no "from" in that quote.
"De," "para," does it matter? Well, yes. After all this is the woman who has shown an endearing crudeness in asking for "condones" (a koozie) for her beer and tells couple she weds (for a hefty $250 per ceremony) and tells the groom "ya te la puedes pichonear,"so this minor translation gaffe is probably the least of her transgressions. Oh, yeah. Mothers don't let your daughters grow up to be Linda.)

Juan, great scoop! But I got it. Makes so much sense to me. Why can't you see it? It's like when I kept buying dog food at HEB after my dog died!

Para la Gente - for the people...

Linda Salazar is a leech on the community. She is uneducated and corrupt. She thinks only of herself and her own purse. She is greedy and arrogant. Please, vote against Linda Salazar. We need competent people on the job as our elected officials. She has sucked on the public tit for too long.
Trumpo the Clown knew exactly what was getting when he hired John Bolton for the national security position. The only reason Trumpo hired him was because he saw him on Fox News giving commentary, and much of it was favorable to the orange baboon. It is the height of stupidity and hypocrisy for that dotard Trumpo to complain about or criticize Bolton after firing him!
Senate Bill 24 was announced last month in Austin. The bill is authored by Senators Eddie Lucio.
Senate Bill 24 is a companion to House Bill 1000.
HB 1000 would create a new university in South Texas within the University of Texas System. It would provide for the UT System to abolish two universities: the University of Texas at Brownsville and the University of Texas-Pan American.
Abolishing UT-Pan American and UT-Brownsville. HB 1000 would abolish the University of Texas-Pan American and the University of Texas at Brownsville. The UT board of regents would determine the actual date to abolish the schools and would establish procedures to wind up each institution’s remaining business.
The new university would hire as many of the faculty and staff of the abolished schools as was practical. A student already admitted to or enrolled in one of the abolished schools would be entitled to admission to the new university.
Folks, dont know why you all get mad or angry, the democrat party- los que chingan have been created by us voters in the past, for many years, folks have supported these great figures- eddie lucio, eddie lucio turd, eddie trevino, joe rivera, juan magallanes, luis saenz, gilberto hinojete, tony yzaguirre, sylvia perez, linda salazar, etc etc etc, so there is NO ONE to BLAME except us. Until we all as a voting party decide enuff is enuff, then we can have the REAL change we really want in Cameron County for our kids and grand kids future. .
Looks like this is a "all topic" venue. But, we all should plan to vote against Linda Salazar and her family members in the upcoming elections. Just say NO to Linda Salazar.
She's got my vote her opponents are worst.
