Phil Sorrells' Fight Against Fentanyl

Tarrant County District Attorney Phil Sorrells started a new Narcotics Unit late last year to fight overdoses from drugs like fentanyl and heroin. In 2023, there were nearly 200 overdoses linked to fentanyl alone. District Attorney Sorrells has been employing new legal tactics to keep Tarrant County safe from the drug trade; House Bill 6 now allows him to pursue murder charges against fentanyl manufacturers and dealers who are responsible for overdoses.

Our District Attorney has been busy since he took office creating the Narcotics Unit, and Election Integrity Task Force, shutting down Temptations Cabaret, and even sending prosecutors to the Supreme Court! You can read DA Sorrells' full report below.

A Man of the People

This week, Trump visited the family of a New York City police officer named Jonathan Diller, who was killed during a traffic stop. The criminal who killed Diller had been arrested 21 times previously. Trump noted that the officer was another victim of soft-on-crime policy, and called for the policies to end. He spent time with the family and immediately paid off their mortgage.

Trump wasn't the only former President in the city at that time. While Trump was consoling the wife of a slain police officer and paying her mortgage, Joe Biden hosted an expensive fundraiser in NYC with Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. Many entertainers put on a show and raised approximately $26 million for Biden's campaign.

Paxton Charges Dropped

A 9-year-long prosecution of Attorney General Ken Paxton ended in Houston this Tuesday. He was indicted on security fraud charges shortly after his election as Attorney General but several counties refused to take up the case as prosecutors delayed for nearly a decade. When the Texas House impeached Paxton last year, they cited "obstruction" in this pending case as a reason for the impeachment.

The House prosecutors were heavily criticized for what was seen as a lack of evidence for the impeachment, and the Senate quickly acquitted him. Many - including the Attorney General - consider the dropping of charges this week the conclusion of a nearly decade-long witch hunt of Trump-ally Ken Paxton.

Unhumans

Trump-ally and Turning Point USA host Jack Posobiec recently published a book on the communist revolution underway in America. The book comes on the heels of a long series Posobiec created detailing the major communist revolutions of the 20th century and the strategies used by both the communists and those that successfully defeated them.

Posobiec's Book "Unhumans" documents the new strategies used today by the Left to undermine our constitutional Republic and the time-tested strategies for defeating them. With the 2024 election looming and the Left doing everything they can to destroy President Trump, the book is timely.
