Republicans everywhere should pay attention to what defeated Pennsylvania Democrat Sen. Bob Casey is trying to pull off. His lawyers are in court arguing for: 1.) Ballots of NON-Registered “voters”; 2.) Un-Signed Mail-In Ballots; 3.) Mail-In Ballots without Dates; and 4.) Ballots cast in a County where the Voter does NOT Live, to be counted. While he has no chance, this is a warning of Democrat's future Game Plans. They want people who aren’t registered, who don’t have IDs, or who live Out of State to be counted.
“Every legislative session, the Texas Senate and Texas House take turns introducing the State Budget. This session, it's the Senate’s turn. Accordingly, Senate Bill 1 will be the State Budget, and to underscore its importance, Senate Bill 2 will be the Senate’s school choice legislation – 32 States, both Republican & Democrat, have enacted some form of School Choice, and there's absolutely no reason why Texas children and parents should be left behind," said Lt. Gov. Patrick of Texas' 1,200 School Districts, and 8,000+ campuses.
After Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security announced it would permit 1.3 million aliens – more than 200,000 of whom live in Texas – to apply for Permanent Residency without returning first to their home countries, on August 23rd Att. Gen. Paxton led a 16-State Coalition to sue DHS over a new policy granting so-called “parole in place” to 100s of 1,000s of illegal aliens which would allow them to gain permanent residency status, and eventual U.S. citizenship while remaining in the United States.
Since the launch of Operation Lone Star, the multi-agency effort has led to over 525,800 illegal immigrant apprehensions and more than 48,500 criminal arrests, with more than 41,800 felony charges. In the fight against the fentanyl crisis, Texas law enforcement has seized over 552 million lethal doses of fentanyl. Texas has decreased illegal crossings into the state by over 86% due to our historic border security mission.
The Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) is proud to celebrate Texas veterans for their service and dedication, especially on Veteran’s Day. TWC provides veterans with the tools for success through employment, education, and training opportunities. TWC launched the 13th annual Hiring Red, White & You! statewide hiring event on Nov. 1. This event connects veterans and their families with employers across Texas.
Based on the cheaters who have been caught and actually prosecuted around the country since 2020, it’s become clear they fit a pattern. Much of the cheating is organized by progressive "advocacy" nonprofits. Former Maricopa County (Phoenix) Elections worker, and Liberal Activist Walter Ringfield – who was caught on video stealing a key FOB earlier this year that would have reprogrammed all 140 County voting machine tabulators on Election Day – is a classic example. So what made the difference this year?
When Americans stand alone in their Polling Booths at schools, gyms, and community centers across the country, we exercise our God-Given Right to choose the men and women who will represent us in government – and lead our nation. Every American citizen has the incredible duty and responsibility of voting in elections, and it must not be taken for granted. As then-Gov. Ronald Reagan said in his 1st Inaugural Address in 1967, "It is not ours by inheritance, it must be fought for and defended by each generation.”
A new car today costs $47,870 – versus $40,857 in January 2021 – and the total annual cost to operate that car has soared. The average home that cost $303,900 in January 2021? In August 2024 it cost $416,700 – and then don't forget to add on Homeowner’s Insurance, your average annual Electric Bill, and the average annual Natural-Gas Utility Bill. Congress needs to restrain spending, stop illegal immigration, reduce regulatory burdens, and let working families keep more of their income to build their dreams.
As Veterans Day approaches on Monday, I’m filled with gratitude for the brave men and women who’ve proudly worn our nation’s uniform. As a Combat Veteran myself, I know the sacrifices made, the courage shown – and the dedication it takes to serve. For veterans like me, this day is not just about looking back on our service, but about honoring our brothers and sisters who made the ultimate sacrifice. That’s why I’m pushing innovative treatments, emerging therapies, and game changing programs to help them truly recover.
Which races will be audited? What polling locations will be audited? And when will the audits happen? “This year’s audit will be the largest conducted in the state, and underscore Texas' commitment to transparency," said Texas Secretary of State Jane Nelson, announcing that the audits will check the results of "designated races through a hand-count process count" – and will be much larger and more expansive than previous efforts. They will also include multiple offices, and additional polling places for investigation.
Governor Greg Abbott announced the Sexual Assault Survivors’ Task Force (SASTF) issued its third Biennial Report to the Texas Legislature. The report includes policy recommendations for the 89th Legislative Session and summarizes task force activities since the last report, including the launch of a Forensic Nursing Coaching Pilot Program with the Texas A&M Health Center of Excellence in Forensic Nursing, a quarterly SASTF Webinar Series, and new trauma-informed trainings for law enforcement and hospital emergency room staff.
During World War I, Texas General Land Office Commissioner J.T. Robison suggested that Veterans returning from war could be supported with land. His idea did not come to fruition however, until after World War II. History notes that 70 GLO employees left to serve in WWII, and two made the ultimate sacrifice. Commissioner J. Bascom Giles recognized these brave Veterans, and supported a Constitutional Amendment to create a fund to purchase land for resale to Veterans at very low interest rates, with generous repayment schedules.
This presidential race was not unpredictable – as the once again discredited polls swore. Republicans had made massive gains in Voter Registration after 2020 when Donald Trump lost by only a few 1,000 strategically placed votes in a handful of Swing States. It was then that Republicans began to master non-Election Day balloting themselves – first engineered by Democrats under the pretext of COVID-19. This year the GOP not only exceeded their early/mail-in voting goals, but by Election Day, they often vastly outpaced Democrats.
What seemed unthinkable right up until early, early Wednesday Morning, is now in fact reality. It's brought shock and self-degradation from seemingly stunned Democrats – and euphoria from Republicans who can't believe the size and scope of Donald Trump’s "historic" victory. The clear-cut results and resounding defeat of Joe Biden’s vice president has quickly reset the political landscape in Washington, D.C. – its upended the national media's narratives, the pollsters predictions, and Democrat Party elite's desperate hopes.
"School choice is wanted by all demographic groups in Texas. Hispanics and African Americans across the state of Texas, they strongly support school choice – those parents want an option. They know their child better than any government employee does, and they want to put their child on the pathway toward success," said Gov. Greg Abbott earlier today, touting the growing support for parents to have school choice and the freedom to choose the best school for their children while in Tyler, Texas.
I hope the Democrats are miserable now. But then again, they had a miserable candidate – far and away the most incompetent person to ever be a candidate for President of the United States. And her running mate, he was even more miserable than she was. Looking at the results of this election, Americans have come to realize the Democrat Party is just a miserable party, full of miserable people, with a miserable ideology, who did a miserable job of running the country. It made all of us miserable for four years.
"It's my honor to work on behalf of all Texans and bring solutions to the table to benefit our great state," said Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham, announcing that the Red River Boundary Commission – with the help of the General Land Office’s (GLO) Surveying Team – has redrawn the Texas-Oklahoma Boundary under North Texas' Lake Texoma to ensure that the security and availability of around 30% of the drinking water supply for more than 2 million people in the area continues.
The Republican Party is now firmly committed to putting American interests first. And Tuesday voters sent a clear message they want their government run for the benefit of its citizens, not for foreigners – and not for ideologies unconnected to their belief in America. An entrenched liberal-elitist, Democrat Ruling Class has been roundly rejected, and the depths from which Americans of all political stripes rose to defend themselves is both a searing indictment of Democrat's leftward lurch, and a demand for the country's problems to be fixed.
