“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.
While some 70% of Americans say they have a plan to reach their financial goals in 2024, adjusting one's strategies to ensure your personal or family investments remain stable and fiscally sound is always advisable. Understanding how today's rapidly changing economy and technological advancements affect your investments play an important role. While positioning your portfolio for the structural transformations we're experiencing may seem like a tall order, here are three major themes to consider.
Earlier this year, Texas Public Utility Commission Chair Thomas Gleeson presided over a meeting focused on the ongoing efforts to improve the reliability of Texas’ electric grid. In the meeting, Gleeson said that while significant improvements have been made on reliability, more work was still necessary to ensure the long-term reliability of Texas’ power grid. “This doesn’t mean we’re done improving – we're continuously looking for ways to meet the needs of our fast-growing state,” Gleeson said.
Joe Biden's sagging support among the nation's Black Voters has set off alarm bells within the Democrat Party – and is raising hopes Donald Trump could score historic gains with one of "the backbones" of the Democrat Party's coalition. Have Black Americans felt “bullied” by Democrats while under the strain of "Bidenomics"? Are they having an “awakening” brought on by the masses of Hispanics Biden's allowing to stream across the U.S. Southern Border? Black Republicans are increasing in droves.
Don’t expect to see the same Donald Trump at the Republican National Convention this week that took the stage and was nearly shot to death in Butler, PA., last Saturday. Don’t expect to see the man who’s fought 2 Impeachments, 1 Conviction, the entire media, the Deep State, Big Tech, and societal machines that've been aligned against him for 8+ years now. Expect something different, something more. Expect a more selfless warrior who has those profound, deep-setting scars of a near-death experience.
"This agreement will encourage investment, trade, and collaboration in critical (economic) areas such as medicine, life sciences, biotechnology, energy, innovation, and so much more. As Texas and Japan drive the future of innovation, this trade agreement will provide our two peoples with the economic freedom and opportunity to thrive for generations to come. Texas and Japan are economic powerhouses set to dominate the technologically advanced future,” said Gov. Abbott.
Do I want Kamala Harris to be president of the United States? No, but we have to have a president. Our constitutional & national security systems require it. So to repeat my focus of a couple of weeks ago, I'm less concerned about Joe Biden’s increasingly obvious incapacity as it relates to the Presidential Election than I am about America’s current, urgent need for a president who can function as Commander In Chief. The world's become a very dangerous place under Joe Biden, so how long can the U.S. go on without a functioning president?
Driven in large part by the increasing concerns among his own party's Democrat Voters, just 37% of U.S. "Registered Voters" now say they believe that Joe Biden is "mentally fit" – down from an already low 42% prior to his debate performance with Donald Trump – and voter's perceptions of Biden’s age and physical fitness have also hit record lows according to the most recent Morning Consult Weekly Tracking Poll. Since the debate, American's perception of whether Biden is in "good health" fell from 41% to 35% among All Voters.
“I watched the debate, and can't remember a more heart-breaking moment in American presidential campaign politics in my lifetime – precisely because of what it revealed: Joe Biden has no business running for re-election,” wrote liberal New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman. “He had a test to meet to restore the confidence of the country, and he failed,” said former Obama advisor & CNN Analyst Van Jones. It’s impossible to imagine that the man we saw on stage last night is actually running The White House.
"The new Monitoring & Enforcement Plan provides more information on how we plan to utilize the agency’s new technological advancements – and our staff’s expertise – to serve Texans and their communities as the Texas Oil & Gas Industry continues to be a vital element of the state and U.S. economy,” said Danny Sorrells, the Texas Railroad Commission's Deputy Exec. Director and Oil & Gas Director, as Commissioners approved the agency’s Fiscal Year 2025 Plan to protect the environment and Texas' citizens.
Make no mistake – America’s are thirsting to know which Presidential Candidate in tonight's debate best understands the real-life issues that currently scare them, hurts them & their families, and frustrates them as they try to go to sleep each night. Whichever candidate best articulates their hopeful ideas, and concisely enunciates their plans to lead the country there, has the best chance of being said to have "Won the Debate." For Donald Trump, Joe Biden – and CNN – the real debate is about the future, not the past.
Governor Greg Abbott today announced that Norman Roy Garza, Jr. has been named as the Executive Director of the Texas Space Commission. The Texas Space Commission was created to further cement Texas’ position as a national leader in the space industry and secure its future in space exploration and development for the next generation of Texans. Norman Garza will help lead that mission as the Commission's first Executive Director.
One memo to "Interested Parties" on "How President Biden Can Win the Debate on Immigration" during Thursday's much-anticipated face-off advises Biden to, “embrace it, don’t run away from it.” Another missive to Team Biden, entitled "5 Recommendations for Creating 'Moments' in the First 2024 Presidential Debate," advises the embattled president to talk about his "economic positions & proposals as much as possible." Public opinion on those and other controversial issues remain dismal for Democrats.
“We can both secure the border – and provide legal pathways for families,” claimed Joe Biden recently, announcing his "Spousal Amnesty Policy" at an event that commemorated Barack Obama’s controversial DACA program – or "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals" – in 2012 by Executive Action. “I refuse to believe that to protect our border we have to walk away from being an American,” Biden said. So how is Mr. Biden doing? And are his recent Immigration Orders resonating with American Voters?
“The law is flatly illegal, period,” said ACLU attorney & lead counsel in the lawsuit, Lee Gelernt. “While Congress has placed some limitations on the right to seek asylum over the years, it has never permitted the Executive Branch to categorically ban asylum based on where a non-citizen enters the country,” said the group of Immigrant Rights Organizations, as they filed a lawsuit to halt implementation of President Joe Biden’s new Executive Order that's intended to limit illegal immigrants’ ability to an lodge asylum claim.
A recent study found that Austin is emerging as a "Top Tier City" for tech talent, ranking #1 in the United States. And, I applaud the Texas Legislature for taking on the Tech & Artificial Intelligence (AI) challenges – but lawmakers at all levels should remain cautious about pursuing policies that slow AI innovations and tech developments. This is particularly important in light of recent reports that China is developing an AI Model trained to promote “socialism with Chinese characteristics.” The U.S. can't afford to lose its leadership position in AI to China.
While President Biden continues to campaign for another four years in the White House, a majority of "Likely U.S. Voters" now say they perceive he is losing his mental sharpness. The latest Rasmussen Reports National Telephone & Online Survey finds that 57% of "Likely U.S. Voters" think that – over time – Mr. Biden is becoming less and less mentally sharp, and most recently said they suspect the Mainstream Media is trying to cover up the president’s cognitive decline.
