Good morning,

If you aren’t yet caffeinated, today’s edition of the Texas Minute will pop your eyes open...

– Michael Quinn Sullivan

A Sickening Public Education “Don’t make me go after you and make you pay the consequences for you and this baby[.]” Those are the words Round Rock ISD superintendent Hafedh Azaiez texted to his mistress [[link removed]] as part of his effort to coerce her to abort their child. She had refused, saying, “This baby has a heartbeat. I will not kill it.”

Allegedly, Azaiez later physically assaulted her – an incident that was reported to local law enforcement but subsequently covered up. (Out of concern for her physical safety, Texas Scorecard is not currently publishing the woman’s name.)

This information is found among the documents [[link removed]] released yesterday by order of the Attorney General, showing the behavior that the Round Rock ISD board of trustees has been covering up since the summer.

Jacob Asmussen continues the ongoing coverage [[link removed]] of the mounting problems in Round Rock ISD, all seemingly centering around Azaiez and five leftist school board members intent on protecting him. Texas Sues Over Airline Mask Mandate Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, U.S. Rep Beth Van Duyne (R-Irving), and the Texas Public Policy Foundation are suing the Biden administration for its illegal mask mandate for airlines and airports. Sydnie Henry has the details [[link removed]].

“Biden’s repeated disregard of the individual liberties of Texans is not only disrespectful to the U.S. Constitution, it is also troublesome that any president thinks they can act above the law while hardworking Americans standby,” said Attorney General Paxton. McKinney School Library: 282 Sexually Explicit Books A family in McKinney ISD are challenging 282 books in their local school libraries which they say are too sexually explicit for children. Erin Anderson has the details [[link removed]].

“The books are not appropriate for any K-12 students,” wrote Paul and Rachel Elliott to the school district. They describe books they reviewed as having “no educational merit.”

For months, parents in dozens of Texas school districts have been asking officials to review and remove sexually explicit books in public school libraries and classrooms, saying they contain obscene and graphic sexual content that is not age-appropriate for minor children. File This Under ‘You Thought He’d Go Quietly?’ Anyone who thought State Rep. Jeff Cason (R-Bedford) was going to fade away after the establishment Republican leadership drew him out of a GOP-leaning seat and into a heavily Democrat seat weren’t thinking right. Cason has launched a podcast called “ Back Room Access [[link removed]]” in which he’s spilling the beans on the how the Texas Legislature really works.

Katy Drollinger writes [[link removed]] about his podcast’s most recent episode, in which Cason describes the machinations employed by a Republican senator and Big Tech to stop an effort that could have limited the availability of internet porn in Texas. Trump Endorses In Tarrant District Attorney Race Former President Donald Trump waded into the Tarrant County district attorney race [[link removed]], endorsing Judge Phil Sorrells for the GOP nomination over State Rep. Matt Krause and Judge Molle Westfall.

“Phil Sorrells is an experienced prosecutor and exceptional criminal court judge who will support Law Enforcement, fight to put dangerous criminals behind bars, and ensure honest elections,” enthused Trump [[link removed]]. “He knows public safety is government’s first responsibility, and that is why he has my Complete and Total Endorsement for Tarrant County District Attorney!” Texas Minute Coffee Mugs
