Soros Looks to Texas

With November of 2024 right ahead of us, Democrats are planning their greatest attempt ever to turn Texas blue. George Soros has given millions of dollars this year to Beto O'Rourke and Democrat parties around the state. One of Beto's organizations, Powered by People, has $2.5 million in its bank account right now. Because of Soros, Texas Organizing Project has $1 million on hand. He has also helped the new "Texas Majority PAC" raise millions of dollars this year.

And let's not forget: in 2022, Beto raised $81 MILLION in Texas. Tarrant County will be the front line in the battle for Texas this November. We may not have a billionaire writing million-dollar checks, but the numbers are on our side. Our Chairman is working to build a machine to counter and defeat Soros' efforts, and if you want to help build it, you can do so here.

Democrats Picking YOUR Candidate?

Speaking of the Primary Election: Nikki Haley recently lost to "None of These Candidates" in Nevada, because Trump participated in the Nevada GOP Caucuses, rather than the Primary. So how did Nikki lose to "No One?" Because Nevada has closed Primaries. Unfortunately, Texas does not.

When you go nominate conservatives who will fight the Democrats on your behalf, you may find yourself in line with DEMOCRATS, who will be voting to pick YOUR Republican nominee. Republicans have been fighting to close our primaries for years, but the legislature in Austin has always stopped it. Closing the Primaries has never made it through the Elections Committee because Speaker Dade Phelan has never allowed it. By the way, Nikki Haley is already encouraging Democrats to vote in your Primary.
