We all know this is being done to attempt to achieve a political gain. It may/may not work. Strengthening one area dilutes another. We’ll see… On a side note, I don’t think it’s a bad idea to relook at numbers for representation in a less than decade increment. Texas population has exploded from new residents. I believe Harris & Travis counties are getting about 150,000/year according to some numbers I saw last week. It may have been more. Ten years is a long time with that type growth. Uncle Sam can track just about everything we do. Quite sure they have a number they can use almost any year without waiting on a census.

Happens even at a more local level. In 2021, Democrats (with Lina Hidalgo) redrew the county maps where Republicans lost a Harris County Commissioner's seat. That gerrymandering gave Dems a 4-1 majority, and allowed all the tax increases and other ultra progressive policies to be implemented. Now, after already finding a state loophole to be able to raise property taxes by 15%, Hidalgo wants more for free child care for all.

79 years young. Off to the big broadcast in the sky.

What the woke REALLY saw that upset them so…

That would’ve hurt my feelings…if I had any.

Ha! I always think of John Anderson when I think of “Swingin’.”

Still an Elizabeth Hurley fan myself. Sucker for brunettes, and she only gets better with age. But, wouldn’t mind seeing Sweeney in a Victoria’s Secret ad. 😬

There are some good Cajun cooking shows I sometimes watch on our local PBS channel. They make me hungry.

I’ll have to look out for him. GCM got a good one in Bright. Not sure the reason for the move. He would have gotten good playing time, and a lot of eyes with the attention Simon will get. He’s been a good RB for LP since he was a Fresh. 2nd Team All District only because he was behind Simon, Barnes, & Sandolph. No more room. But, Barnes & Sandolph graduated. He would have had some good chances this year. He’s gonna get beat to a pulp at GCM.

Who did LP get? I saw Bright went to GCM for some reason.

Well...ummm...

He's a bumbling, has been hack trying to make a buck.

Norm Eisen & ethics in the same sentence is an oxymoron. Label him what he is—a left wing political hack.

La Porte No. 6 5A1

Talk about missing your exit!

Big court case on Thursday to decide if all Trump’s tariffs will be declared illegal. If the ruling is that Trump doesn’t have the authority to impose tariffs, a lot of good could be undone. Will be interesting to see what happens. Ruling could make the OBBB disastrous since tariffs were being used to offset some costs. Courts (Obama appointee) have already blocked the OBBB provision that stripped funding from Planned Parenthood facilities that provide abortions—even though it’s illegal to use federal funds for abortions. I believe I read where about 200 Democrats, and 12 Democrat led states—along with a couple small businesses had sued to stop POTUS negotiating authority. [Hidden Content]

Absolutes like ‘never’ and ‘always’ are seldom correct.

Zodiac killer did. Just sayin’.

Reagan was my CIC.

I found this on Snopes—a little left leaning, but considered pretty trustworthy—about the origins of some claims. Interesting reads. [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]
