With the recent release of controversial Cong. Adam Schiff's  Twitter files – and disclosures of the F.B.I.'s involvement in Twitter’s censorship program – we now have another rare insight into how government officials attempted to enlist Social Media for election-influencing. It's precisely why so many in the media and the Democrat establishment are mobilizing against new Twitter owner Elon Musk, who continues to release the compromising evidence.

The 88th Texas Legislative Session began earlier this week on Tuesday, January 10th. The Texas House of Representatives Swearing-In Ceremony was held on the House Floor at noon on January 10th, and if you are unable to join us I'd like to invite you to come to Austin during the 88th Session and visit our Capitol Office. We want you to be a part of your Texas Legislature and the decisions that are made.

“Today, Republicans began working toward protecting and strengthening America against the immediate threats we face from the Chinese Communist Party. This new Select Committee will thoroughly investigate the malicious actions the CCP has already taken – and provide solutions to protect American citizens," said Texas Congressman Pete Sessions immediately after the U.S. House voted to establish a new Select Committee on the issue.

“If you look at the competitive seats on the 2024 election map, all of them are held by Democrats. You have to squint very hard to find a pickup opportunity for them,” said Jacob Rubashkin of the non-partisan campaign tracker Inside Elections. Senators like West Virginia's Joe Manchin are becoming endangered species, and they're up for reelection in battleground states with targets on their backs.

After ​​​​​​​Holiday Travelers all across America face a nationwide Artic Blast and are burned by 1,000s of airline delays traveling home for Christmas, and as many fight what's amounted to the "perfect storm" of issues affecting air travel in Texas – the 2nd-most populous state in the U.S. and home to 5 of its 15 Largest Cities – here’s one way for the Feds & the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) to respond.

With the Holiday Season upon us, it's important to remember there are many Texas residents that may need a helping hand this winter. In this week’s column, I'd like to continue a discussion about helping others by sharing a few simple ways you can make a significant impact in the life of someone less fortunate this year. I have outlined some of the many giving opportunities available at some of Texas' Coastal Bend charities.

“Viktor Bout’s arms trafficking activity has been a concern around the globe for decades. Today he faces the prospect of life in prison for his efforts to sell millions of dollars worth of weapons to terrorists for use in killing Americans,” said Barack Obama's then-Attorney General Eric Holder in 2011 after Bout’s conviction. “One of the world’s most prolific arms dealers is being held accountable for his sordid past,” Holder said. Under Joe Biden, all that's changed.

What's clear is that Elon Musk – despite the full mobilization of the D.C. Swamp against him – is undeterred, thank goodness. In fact, the normally unstoppable forces of Washington may have met their first immovable object. What is also clear, is that the Biden Campaign never denied Hunter Biden's laptop was Hunter Biden's laptop. On Tuesday, Musk fired Twitter's Deputy General Counsel – and disgraced former FBI General Counsel – Jim Baker.

My son-in-law, Greg, helped save my life a couple months ago. For those who don’t know, being added to a transplant waitlist is quite a process – and there are many more Texans waiting for a transplant than there are deceased-donor organs available. That's why Greg's "live donation" helped save my life. In less time than it'll take you to read my story, you can visit DonateLifeTexas.org to see if you're registered to help save someone else's life.

Californians pay 80% above the national average for electricity, and Germans have  the highest electricity prices in the world. Yes, contrary to what Americans typically see or hear – and are told by the Mainstream Media – reliance on wind and solar power actually increases the costs of your electric bills. California and Germany are prime examples of what happens when a state or nation relies to heavily on wind and-or solar energy.

"This incredible, groundbreaking new therapy has the potential to revolutionize how we combat fentanyl deaths and end the afflictions of addiction that burdens so many innocent Texans & Americans across the country," said Gov. Greg Abbott, celebrating the tremendous achievement of University of Houston researchers who have developed a groundbreaking fentanyl vaccine with the potential to save millions of lives from overdose poisonings and addiction.

It’s too bad the failed Socialist Experiment at Plymouth Rock is not more prominently included in the Thanksgiving Story that most Americans think of today. Perhaps it would make a difference to the 65% of Democrats who currently have a positive view of "socialism" – including about half of the millennials and Generation Zers who believe it would be preferable to our Capitalist System.

This is the story of China’s 100-year plan for world domination. To do that, they must defeat the United States of America. The Mainstream Media is certainly aware of the China threat, but does little to report on it. And the Chinese Communist Party isn't even trying much to hide their intent. But is the United States prepared to fight a war for control of Planet Earth if that’s where we’re headed?

Americans for Tax Reform, Citizens Against Government Waste, and the Center for Freedom & Prosperity are all opposed to Congress creating new government mandates for Credit Card processing procedures. So why is Texas Cong. Lance Gooden teaming up with liberal Vermont Democrat Peter Welch to introduce the bill that will also reduce Security & Fraud Protections on your purchases?

Top Democrat lawmakers and strategists are already openly 2nd-guessing their party’s 2022 campaign tactics, reflecting a growing sense that the party has failed to present an effective "message" to stave off major losses in the House – and decisive defeats in Senate. But with escalating gas & grocery prices, out of control crime and an unsecured border pushing Americans to the brink, is it really just a "Messaging Problem"?

Through the first six days of Early Voting in Georgia, the state has seen an astounding 159% increase in turnout from the same period of 2018's Mid-Term Elections. Early Voting totals in the Peach State have even shattered the record 2020 Presidential Election figures by 20%. Yet in a striking and surprisingly ominous tone, Mr. Biden said: "We the people must decide whether the rule of law will prevail, or whether we'll allow the dark forces" to triumph.

For 38 consecutive weeks a majority of voters have said they believe "The country is on the Wrong Track." Now, Americans are continuing to express deep – and in fact growing pessimism about the economy and rising inflation as Early Voting's begun and the nation has moved into the final two weeks of the decisive 2022 Mid-Term Election. More than 90% of voters are concerned.

As 45% of Likely U.S. Voters say they "Strongly Disapprove" of Joe Biden's job as president, and just 22% ‘Strongly Approve,’ Mr. Biden’s Approval Index Rating as of Friday, Oct. 21st is a -23% according to Rasmussen Reports' Daily Presidential Tracking Poll. And, he is impacting down-ballot races in the six key battleground states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania & Wisconsin.

"They didn't maintain the required election records, and violated the law," said State Sen. Paul Bettencourt, adding, "14 polls with no proper chain-of-custody for the Mobile Ballot Boxes means the election personnel of Harris County cannot follow State & Federal laws!" An audit letter from the Texas Secretary of State's Office has revealed massive chain-of-custody breaches in Harris County during the 2020 election.

“Texas is taking action... Fentanyl is the single deadliest drug our nation has ever encountered – and it’s a byproduct of President Biden’s open border policies. Its killing innocent Texans, with well over 1,500 lives lost from communities across our state,” said Gov. Greg Abbott earlier today, launching his statewide “One Pill Kills” campaign to raise awareness of the deadly drug.
