Two stories this week that seem separate from one another are both examples of Governor Abbott's MAGA machine in Texas' slow and steady erosion of our rights under the Constitution. There's the undermining of a local ordinance in Houston designed to protect Fourth Amendment protections against unlawful detention, and then there's the greenlighting of Ten Commandments posting in Texas classrooms, a clear assault on First Amendment church/state barriers. Both are audacious attacks on YOUR rights - and both are all the more reason to resist.
