"I encourage all Texans to come and pay their respects to the Veterans who are participating in the Dedication Ceremony, and take a moment to reflect upon the sacrifices of the service members who've fought in these wars," said Texas Land Commissioner & Veterans Land Board Chairwoman Dawn Buckingham, announcing the VLB's War Monument Dedication Ceremony at the Coastal Bend State Veterans Cemetery (TSVC) in Corpus Christi on Friday, May 3, 2024, at 11:00 a.m.
The Supreme Court recently heard oral arguments in Idaho/Moyle v. United States regarding Joe Biden’s "Emergency Medical Treatment & Labor Act" (EMTALA) guidance – a blatantly transparent attempt to use existing Federal Laws to force physicians across the nation to perform abortions, especially in states with pro-life protections. As a board-certified obstetrician, I have practiced under EMTALA for over 30 years, and it has never been confusing to me – or to any of my peers.
What we're seeing on College Campuses across the country is disgusting and unacceptable. Universities must protect students instead of allowing pro-Hamas supporters to take over property or spew HATE. Hamas is a Terrorist Organization. ‘Gaza Solidarity Encampments’ and Antisemitism have no place here and will not be tolerated. I will fight and speak out against all forms of antisemitism, and work to protect our Jewish brothers and sisters. This is America.
When folks drive down an Interstate Highway, we often don’t understand the work that goes into creating them. I’ve been working on transportation issues for over 21 years, and the just passed designation of I-27 and I-14 – which will connect over 85% of Texas’ population and impact more than 95% of Texas’ future GDP – is one of the most significant wins for the Lone Star State I’ve ever seen. It's impossible to overstate just how much the lives of Texans will benefit over the next 100 years.
"I urge Texans all across Congressional District 23 to join me in supporting Tony Gonzales for re-election in the upcoming May primary runoff election," said Gov. Greg Abbott, adding, "Tony's a fierce champion for bolstering border security measures in Congress, and he represents more than two-thirds of the Texas-Mexico Border. He knows the dangerous consequences that President Joe Biden's reckless open border policies have on our state – and our nation," said Abbott.
Title IX is a Civil Rights Law granting protections to women by prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sex in any educational program that receives federal money – including K-12 schools, Colleges & Universities. Mr. Biden's new rules contort these protections for women by forcing schools to accommodate the wishes of men claiming to identify as women (or “transgender,”) and allows them to enter female-only spaces and join female-only organizations.
Sometimes, good parents raise bad kids. It is possible to do everything right and still churn out a real piece of post-digested food. It happens. It just doesn’t happen very often, which is why it’s pretty easy to look at the mutant mob and professional protester class currently staging mini-Beer Hall Putschs they hope will weave together into a one, large real opportunity for them to murder as many white people, normal people, straight people, non-obedient people and especially Jews as possible. Fascists always have a real problem with Jews.
In the latest Gallup Poll conducted April 1st-22nd, things have gone from bad to worse for the nation's 81-year-old Democrat president. According to the latest polling figures released today by Gallup, Joe Biden now has to the lowest "Approval Rating" for any president at this point in their 1st Term – and the record low comes as the Biden White House struggles to adequately address even one of the major issues Americans say is their top concern.
With this year’s Emergency Supplies Sales Tax Holiday Weekend running Saturday through Monday, "I encourage Texans across the state to stock up on supplies to protect themselves and their loved ones in an emergency – such as flashlights, hand-held fire extinguishers, or first aid kits," said Gov. Greg Abbott earlier today of items that can be purchased either online or in person. As spring storms and the Hurricane Season approach, here's a list of items to consider purchasing.
The PEARL Act supports Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP) efforts to address mental health challenges at the agency by providing therapy dogs to CBP personnel. Since 2007, over 150 Border Patrol Agents and CBP employees have died by suicide. In January 2023, CBP launched the Support Canine Program, which aims to mitigate the spike in mental health crises among CBP personnel.

Since 2016, the Comptroller’s Transparency Stars program has recognized local governments that provide clear and meaningful financial information by posting financial documents, thorough summaries, visualizations, downloadable data and other relevant information. Existing star categories include traditional finances, contracts and procurement, economic development, public pensions and debt obligations.
Israel showed Iran last week – and sent a larger "message" to the world – that it could and would send a (retaliatory) barrage of missiles at Iran's nuclear sites with reasonable assurances they could not be stopped. By comparison, Iran's earlier and more massive attack on Israel was a huge flop. An estimated 99% failed to hit their targets. These developments mean it should be harder for Iran to shake down Joe Biden and others for hostage bribes or Iran-deal giveaways on the implied threat of Iran successfully nuking the Jewish state.
The decisive reason I could not support this bill is because it did nothing to secure the Texas-Mexico border. As I’ve said many times, we are facing an existential crisis—a full-on invasion—at our own southern border. Democrats desperately wanted to pass this Ukraine aid bill—so much so that the world watched the ridiculous spectacle of Democrats gleefully waiving Ukrainian flags on the floor of the United States House of Representatives; it’s difficult to imagine those same Democrats ever waiving an American flag with the same joy.
SDF is the state's workforce training grant program to help businesses upskill their new or incumbent workforce. In partnership with the public community and technical colleges, workforce development boards, and Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service, TWC collaborates to provide customized, innovative training to Texas businesses of all sizes.
Congressman Tony Gonzales toured the site of a new and upcoming VA healthcare facility in El Paso. Congressman Gonzales helped secure $700 million for the construction of this project through his position on the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Military Construction and Veterans Affairs. The new facility will be located on Fort Bliss near the William Beaumont Army Medical Center and will improve access to care for more than 54,000 veterans in the El Paso area.
“Many states irresponsibly & unconstitutionally changed their voting policies prior to the 2020 Election - but fortunately we did things differently and fought to uphold Texas law,” said Attorney General Ken Paxton after the U.S. Supreme Court rejected a case brought by a political activist group and backed by Texas Democrats to overturn & weaken Texas' voter integrity laws for mail-in voting. The existing safeguards will remain in place.
Ben Shapiro confirmed these sentiments, writing, “Open anti-Semitism has been on the rise for legitimately decades on campus. It was rife on campus when I was there 20 years ago. It’s particularly rife from the radical Muslim community, and it’s been fostered by a Left-wing college administration across campuses for two generations that believes in the intersectional hierarchy of victimhood, in which Muslims outrank Jews.”
