This week could mark the most consequential development on the U.S.-Mexico Border, yet how is it that so many Americans are so ignorant of what's happening? Might the answer have something to do with the fact that so many news organizations ignore the problem? If more people knew the true scope of the the president's problem, more would likely be concerned – and oppose Mr. Biden's actions.

"On Thursday night and Friday morning, temperatures forecast for some areas of Texas will be in the low teens," says the National Weather Service. Friday's forecast includes highs in the mid-20s, and lows in the lower teens for some parts of the state, rising above freezing by Saturday afternoon Christmas Day. As Texans prepare for the cold weather, operators in the Texas Oil & Natural Gas Industry are also preparing – here's your details.

“This year, 14 Customs & Border Protection Agents and Officers have taken their own life - and that's 14 too many,” said Cong. Tony Gonzales (R-TX-23,) as he and Cong. Henry Cuellar (D-TX-28) introduced the Customs & Border Protection (CBP) Act. The TAPS Act creates a comprehensive, Anti-Suicide Task Force to assess the underlying factors leading to the high CBP suicide rates, after three agents committed suicide just last month.

“Your retirement savings account is becoming collateral damage to radical environmentalists, who are leveraging Wall Street through ‘woke’ ESG investment strategies to kill the Oil & Gas Industry,” said Texas Railroad Commissioner Wayne Christian, commending Texas for leading the fight to prohibit the practice of forcing subjective environmental and social metrics to take priority over sound financial goals to ensure high returns for investors.

Last month, Joe Biden’s Health & Human Services Secretary indicated he believes taxpayers should be forced to pay for sex change surgeries – including for minors. But not in Texas if State Rep. Brian Harrison has anything to do about it. “Just as the Hyde Amendment – with bipartisan support for almost 50 years – bans tax dollars from funding abortions, I’m proud to file a bill to protect Texans from being forced to pay for their neighbor’s sex change."

If you like cream in your coffee (if not, the analogy works with any other drink,) keep pouring past the amount that you would normally add – and then add even more. If you pour the cream long enough, it will replace the coffee. That is what's happening at what used to be our nation's Southern Border... before the Biden Administration eliminated virtually any and all barriers to keep masses of migrants and tons of fentanyl from pouring in.

"Now more than ever, it's imperative our Law Enforcement Officers & Texas National Guard Soldiers adopt innovative solutions to counteract President Biden’s reckless decision to end Title 42 expulsions," said Gov. Greg Abbott, having received a briefing from Operation Lone Star leaders and touring the increased assets Texas has deployed along the border ahead of President Biden’s ending Title 42 expulsions this week on December 21.

“The Biden White House is once again attempting to ignore the Rule of Law by abusing executive authority to implement its own version of amnesty,” said Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, after the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals reaffirmed that the Office of the President lacks the authority to institute what many believe is an illegal "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Program." Paxton is leading a coalition of states pushing back against Biden’s attempts to save DACA.

In November 2022, Texas added a total of 33,600 jobs to reach 13,672,900, one year after first hitting an all-time high and surpassing the pre-pandemic jobs count in November 2021.

Let’s sum up the state of America’s military brass with one appalling comparison between how the admirals, generals, and civilian leaders chose to treat two different service members. And right now, military veterans are refusing to recommend that young people join.

"Despite economic pressures that are evident across the country, Texas employers grew jobs at the fastest rate in the nation the past 12 months. More Texans are working than ever before, and in the months ahead we will continue working to safeguard the freedoms found only in the Lone Star State – we will expand opportunity for all Texans,” said Gov. Greg Abbott.

Congressmen Tony Gonzales (TX-R) and Henry Cuellar (TX-D,) and Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and John Cornyn (R-TX) have jointly signed and sent a bi-partisan letter to President Joe Biden urging him to extend the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention’s Title 42 Border Control Order beyond its soon to expire December 21st deadline.

As a former Chief of Staff at the U.S. Dept. of Health & Human Services (HHS,) Rep. Brian Harrison has filed House Bill 1023 in Austin after the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) – unbeknownst to HHS leadership which oversees the FDA – recently went against HHS's specified instruction and created a new regulatory barrier requiring laboratories to seek FDA approval prior to testing for COVID-19. This illegal regulatory overreach effectively banned COVID-19 testing in the crucial early days of the pandemic.

Over the last year, the importance of "Parental Rights" has captured the attention of the country, has galvanized parents, inspired lawmakers, and decided the outcome of important campaigns during November's elections. To further the effort in Texas, State Representative James Frank has filed HJR 58 – an amendment to the Texas Constitution – to help protect the right of Texas parents to raise their children, and he says it will be the Family Freedom Project’s top priority in the 2023 Legislative Session.

Warnock is a boilerplate Democrat of the left, with an agenda of government spending as the answer to every problem, who is also the address to turn to keep the door open to abortion and the LGBTQ agenda.

“There've been recent reports that Non-Governmental Organizations may have assisted in illegal border crossings near El Paso. We further understand NGOs may be engaged in unlawfully orchestrating other crossings – through activities on both sides of the border – including in sectors other than El Paso. As a result, I am calling on the Texas Attorney General’s Office to investigate the role of NGOs in planning & facilitating the illegal transportation of illegal immigrants across our borders," said Gov. Greg Abbott earlier today.

Texas is currently experiencing the worst drought since 2011, and it's costing the Texas economy plenty – some $7.62 billion in agricultural losses, and nearly $17 billion in total. “With the population ballooning, and businesses booming, it comes as no surprise that Texas will need a lot of water to stay afloat,” said Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar. ​​​​​​​“And planning for Texas’ future water needs will require the dedication and resourcefulness of organizations and passionate individuals” in the upcoming 2023 Legislative Session.

“Chairman Christian has led this agency through serious rulemakings related to Winter Storm Uri, and I'm proud of the work this agency has completed to keep gas flowing in this state,” said Texas Railroad Commissioner Christi Craddick, after she was unanimously elected Chairman during today’s RRC open meeting.
