Complete Insanity at our Border

From day one, Biden has reversed the progress we made under President Trump to secure our southern border. Is anyone surprised? There is a total invasion happening right before our eyes. There’s clearly no interest by the White House to fix this problem. The Biden Administration is putting Ameri…

You Can’t Make This Stuff Up

It was recently reported that a 'racial activism group' in Dallas is asking white parents to sign a pledge agreeing not to send their children to Ivy League schools to "help correct historical wrongs." I wish I was making this up. You can read more about it here. This pledge is the same backward…

Democrats Still MIA

The Texas House Democrats have been MIA for 16 days and counting and the only thing they have accomplished is racking up a huge bill for taxpayers. By choosing to remain in Washington, D.C. rather than report for work here in Texas, they have made it clear that holding our democracy hostage is m…

21.5 Million

21.5 million. That's how many lethal doses of fentanyl Texas law enforcement seized from illegal immigrants trying to cross the border in just the first four months of 2021. This is the equivalent of 95 pounds. 2.2 pounds of fentanyl can kill 500,000 people. Biden's open border policies are dead…
