Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton secured a major victory stopping the Biden White House’s attempt to unlawfully redirect statutorily obligated funding away from border wall construction – a direct violation of Federal Law. After losing the case in Federal Court, the Biden Administration declined to appeal, thereby forfeiting any further claims. The Biden Administration was directed by the court to continue Border Wall Construction using the funding appropriated by Congress for that purpose.
For the past four years, inflation has rattled local small businesses across the country. The inflation rate peaked in 2022, but of course the cost of goods never went back down. In fact, the prices just kept rising, just not at the same clip they had been rising at the peak. In short, gas prices, food prices, housing prices, energy prices and insurance costs are still blowing away everyday people's budgets, making them cut costs on essentials or drive up credit card debt despite the Biden-Harris administration consistently dismissing their plight for two years.
For Kamala Harris, it’s quickly become abundantly clear that "Weird" is her new & improved version of Hillary Clinton's infamous "Basket of Deplorables." Democrats and their 2016 Media Partners openly agreed with Hillary's assessment of Donald Trump and his supporters – until it dawned on some of their party's geniuses that insulting the customer is a Losing Strategy. How ironic is it that Kamala and others in the party's leadership have taken to calling her Republican opponents “weird” in the past few weeks?
U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has introduced the Guarding and Administering Trespass Enforcement, Controlling Restricted Areas, and Stopping High-Risk Encroachment Recidivism and Sabotage (GATE CRASHERS) Act. Sen. Cruz’s bill would strengthen criminal penalties for trespassing on Department of Defense (DOD) installations.
President Biden has announced, and is pushing, a radical proposal to overhaul the Supreme Court of the United States. His plan includes amending the Constitution to constrain the Court. Our Founding Fathers understood the critical importance of an independent Court – as do I and most other Americans. House Republicans and I will not allow the Biden White House and radical Democrats to do so. This is just another example of the Biden-Harris administration trying to rig the game when they don’t feel like they are winning.
Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar said today that State Sales Tax Revenues totaled $3.99 billion in July, 0.1% more than in July 2023. The majority of July sales tax revenue is based on sales made in June and remitted to the agency in July. Total sales tax revenue for the three months ending in July 2024 was up 1.7% compared with the same period a year ago. Sales tax is the largest source of state funding for the State Budget.
Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick sent a letter to the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUC) urging them to claw back $800 million of ratepayer money from CenterPoint Energy in Houston. Upon sending the letter, Lt. Gov. Patrick stated: “As promised, here is the letter I sent to the PUC urging them to claw back $800 million of ratepayer money from CenterPoint. I remain committed to fighting on behalf ratepayers to ensure they do not pay for CenterPoint’s mismanagement.
Kamala Harris is a desperate choice for a political party that is in abject free fall. Without the sudden and enormous support from Liberal Legacy Media, her numbers would be worse than they already are. And for the next 90 days, the one who cackles will have every chance to reveal what she doesn’t know, what she can’t do, and how poorly she handles people. There is an obvious reason Harris hasn’t taken an unscripted question in 15 days, but let me tell you why…
While Democrats and their media allies may have been singing Kamala Harris’s praises in public the past two weeks, don’t be fooled. A new report is already revealing how Harris’s Democrat Party allies are singing an altogether different, much less optimistic tune in private. In private, Democrats are admitting how anxious they are about Harris's ability to connect with White Middle-Class Working Voters in Pennsylvania, Michigan & Wisconsin. “It’s not as if... ‘Oh, we have the best candidate in the world [in reserve].’”
“Kamala Harris is in much better shape than Joe Biden, but she has one big problem – the Electoral College,” wrote nationally recognized Political Statistician Nate Silver – a self-proclaimed liberal in his Tuesday, July 30th Election Forecast. “The candidate who I honest-to-God think has a better chance (Trump,) isn’t the candidate I’d rather have win (Biden),” Silver said, as his latest forecast shows Democrats’ gambit of switching out candidates is still on track to go down in flames.
“In December of last year we discovered that more than 1-in-every-5 voters admitted to voting fraudulently during the 2020 Election – and in April of this year we found that 28% of 'Likely Voters' admitted they would cheat in the upcoming 2024 Election if given the opportunity,” said Donald Kendal, director of the Socialism Research Center at The Heartland Institute. “The tools for election fraud are everywhere – that’s why people are rightly worried that millions of illegal ballots might be cast this November."
For years now, our nation's top Democrat "leaders" & best left-wing reporters have sworn that "Joe Biden's energy, sharpness and drive would outpace those half his age." And wouldn't you know it, now those same Democrats and journalists have suddenly confessed that Old Joe is not, and never was what their lies told us – but that we should believe their praises of the Democrat Party's newest, most accomplished, eloquent and brilliantly articulate generational leader... Kamala Harris?
Eight days after announcing he'd end his presidential bid, Joe Biden went to Austin, Texas today to launch a Democrat Campaign against the Supreme Court – and made it clear he wants to remain in the political limelight while his party's leaders (who forced him to withdraw,) attempt to "pass the torch" to Kamala Harris. She should be none too pleased with his insistence of grabbing the spotlight away from her, but in fact has pledged to campaign on the most dangerous policy proposal by an American president since World War II.
In a now-infamous 2021 interview with NBC’s Lester Holt, Kamala Harris was questioned about the possible pitfalls of her working on an issue as sensitive as dealing with the increasing flow of illegal immigrants at the U.S. Southern Border. Holt asked Harris when she'd be going to the border, and Harris responded, "We’ve been to the border.” Holt fired back, “You haven’t been to the border,” to which Harris infamously replied, “And, I haven’t been to Europe.” Here's why Harris's "Border Czar" record will not be lost on the American public.
“She covered up Joe’s obvious mental decline,” says the narrator in a 30-second TV spot that began airing Sunday in Arizona, Georgia & Pennsylvania. “But Kamala knew Joe couldn’t do the job – so she did it. Look what she got done,” the narrator adds, crediting Joe Biden's vice president for runaway inflation, high homeownership costs, and the record number of illegal-immigrant crossings that occurred on her watch. Another video released Tuesday points to her “dangerously liberal” climate & public safety policies.
After Hurricane Beryl knocked out power in Houston and its surrounding suburbs – causing widespread disruption to the nation's 4th largest city – a number of Texas Congressmen are demanding answers from the Biden White House after a funding denial from the U.S. Dept. of Energy's Secretary has become public. When asked whether he thought the denial was politically motivated, “No doubt about it. Texas is the #1 Energy State – and so Biden, they don’t like that,” said Houston-area Cong. Randy Weber.
It was a coup to hand the Democrat Nomination to Kamala Harris even though not one American voted for her in the Democrat Primary. Harris did absolutely nothing to earn her party’s nomination – yet it’s being handed to her on a Silver Platter. So much for Democrat's “accepting the election results,” and defending "our democracy” claims. There was one person who knew more about Joe Biden’s condition than almost anyone else other than wife Jill: Vice President Kamala Harris.
What a small handful of Democrat Elites are doing is a last-minute bait-&-switch to evade responsibility for an administration – and its figurehead – which they elected and supported for over three and a half years. They're trying to hang on to power by desperate trickery that insults every American's intelligence, deprives them of their right to hold Joe Biden's White House and the Democrat Party to account at the Ballot Box – but "Democracy" means the people decide.
