Let's talk about this just-yesterday uncovered "collusion" between a supposedly "Free Press" and Joe Biden. It happened in the light-of-day – during a White House Press Conference in the Rose Garden, no less – and is a fraud on the American people that's designed to give them the false impression Mr. Biden can withstand legitimate media questions without first having knowledge of precisely what questions will be asked.

Customers of CPS Energy in San Antonio – the nation’s largest municipally-owned Electric & Natural Gas Utility – may have to pay millions of dollars more as CPS amasses legal fees that will likely be passed on to ratepayers according to a legal analysis that recently appeared in The Texas Lawyer. “There's no reason for them to keep their customers in the dark and continue adding costs," says the article's author.

“Although a long shot, at this point Kennedy starts in double digits – and (that) can’t be ignored,” said Suffolk University's David Paleologos, which conducted a new USA TODAY/Suffolk University Poll showing that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has the support of 14% of Joe Biden's 2020 voters – indicating that Democrats are open to other Democrats waging a spirited primary for the 2024 Presidential Nomination.

There's been a real & actual "assault on democracy" in Tennessee the past 10 days, and it appears that nothing says "democracy" to Democrats like a bullhorn and obstructing legislative work on the floor of the House of Delegates there. The Left's rising rhetoric over the expulsion of 2 Tennessee legislators perfectly captures Democrat's amplified rage & fear. Expect more of it in the future: Welcome to Politics BYOB – Bring Your Own Bullhorn.

In the states that have legalized sports and online gambling or betting, authorities report that when the presence of wagering and gambling are introduced, a "sort of addiction pandemic" quickly occurs – as does the need for "Addiction Services" and numerous other state-provided and expensive Social Services, which typically skyrocket and become an issue as gambling is allowed to expand.

This is bad. Its bad such a baffling Pentagon leak of Classified U.S. Intelligence Documents could somehow appear on social media, its bad how its swiftly unfurling into a significant debacle for Mr. Biden and his White House as he travels to Ireland, and its bad that the U.S.'s assessment of Ukraine’s abilities are so modest or grim. Its also bad that apparently lots of foreign-policy experts have doubts about the administration, but are afraid to say so publicly.

They've tried everything. Despite endless attempts over the past 7 years, the best they could come up with is... this?! The House impeached him twice – both times based on false information. Biden's DOJ raided his home looking for classified documents, and found nothing on which they could prosecute him. Mr. Bragg, the Democrats, and the media that controls them want to punish Trump for winning, and Americans for voting for him.

"We've consistently learned more from press reports about the Chinese Spy Balloon than we have from White House officials,” said Senate Armed Service Committee Member Roger Wicker, as the Biden White House came under renewed & increased fire Monday after NBC News cited Senior U.S. Officials saying that the balloon collected & transmitted in real-time critical U.S. military intelligence from several U.S. military installations before being downed.

There are several bills in the 2023 Texas Legislature that address and encourage the concept that's referred to as "Carbon Capture & Storage," or CCS – but what exactly is Carbon Capture? Or, Carbon Storage for that matter? Its not too hard to understand, and perhaps most importantly, it can help Texas reduce emissions without disrupting growth in the Oil & Gas Industries in the future.

"Every day, more and more stories reveal that male athletes are stealing trophies, scholarships & victories from a countless number of women who've worked hard to be the very best at their sport. We'll not allow this to happen to college women in Texas," said Texas Values Action's Mary Elizabeth Castle after the Texas Senate passed Sen. Mayes Middleton's #SaveWomensSports Bill to protect college level women from having men participate in their sports.

While 74% of Democrats have a "favorable" opinion of Joe Biden – and just 14% hold an "unfavorable" view – when asked what they'd want to see happen in the 2024 Democrat Presidential Primary were the choice up to them, almost half (44%) say they would like Mr. Biden to step aside so someone else can run as the Democrat nominee for president. Just 25% say they want Biden to run for a 2nd term, 30% have no opinion either way.

Every president since Jimmy Carter in 1979 has had a lower Inflation Rate than Joe Biden has at this point in his presidency. So why are we not hearing about how the blame rests squarely on Joe Biden and his White House when all signs point to his failed policies? Even though 54% of Americans believe the recession is thanks to Biden's policies, the answer is simple – and we all know it: Joe Biden has a D next to his name.

"The leading bills currently under consideration in the Texas House are such a gift to the Gambling Industry, it begs the question: Whom are lawmakers really representing. The bills under consideration set the state’s cut at a measly 10%, ensuring that when that money is transferred from residents to the state, gambling companies keep a much greater share. You can almost hear the bookies salivating."

How can Texas be more successful in building affordable workforce housing – efficiently & safely – like some other areas across the country are doing? Our cities need to revisit their restrictive minimum lot size laws to make way for property rights approaches that help solve Texas’ housing shortage crisis. If we don’t make housing attainable for our growing workforce, Texas will lose its competitive edge.

"Ultimately, no one knows what's best for a child's success than their parents. This session, we'll empower every parent with the ability to choose the best high-quality education option for their child," said Gov. Greg Abbott last night during another "Parent Empowerment Night" – this one held at Parks Meadows Academy in Corsicana – advocating for Education Freedom & Parental Rights to a crowd of over 300 Texans.

The war in Ukraine should be viewed as a sideshow for the United States, just by our nation's U.S. Defense Industrial Base Capabilities alone. This is not a debate about aid to Ukraine, but rather is a debate on U.S. Military Production capabilities. If the United States wants to compete on the world stage in the immediate future, it needs to address this clear weakness in our nation's military capabilities – yesterday.

In 2023, the maximum a person can pay out of pocket for healthcare costs is $9,100–$18,200 for a family. And according to the U.S. Census, the Median Household Income in Texas is $67,321, which means it’s not likely that most families – especially those impacted by chronic disease – can afford to pay that much out of pocket. So, how do people afford their medications?

“They don’t know whose it is, and they don’t know what it is. They can’t even tell you what it looks like,” said Sen. Marco Rubio, the top Republican on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. “The most important questions we have to answer now are, ‘What are these things’? Who sent them? And, what are they doing here?',” said Rubio as Senators emerged from a briefing provided by the Biden White House's intelligence officials.

Normally I agree with the late-great Humorist P.J. O'Rourke, who wrote, "Distracting politicians from governing is like distracting a bear from eating your baby... or stopping a dog from chewing on your wallet at least." But, the Texas legislature's begun its Bi-Annual 140 Day Session, so I want to encourage you to politely, kindly, and respectfully let them know your priorities – and show them you're watching.

Customs & Border Protection officials announced late Friday that they had stopped 251,487 illegal immigrants along the Mexican Border in December – the highest number of illegal border crossers recorded during any month of Joe Biden's presidency. That's up from 234,896 in November, and represents whopping a 40% increase from the 179,253 apprehensions of year ago in December 2021.
