Pratt on Texas

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: Get ready for more local, state, and national misleading propaganda on the Texas Bluebonnet public school curriculum. The SBOE adopted part of such today and no, it does not teach the Bible or Christianity to students. It simply includes references, where appropriate, to the Bible so that concepts, traditions, and influences can be taught or understood in proper context. One cannot be educated to understand much of anything of Western Culture without being exposed to Christian Biblical teaching because such is at the center of most everything.

A big win for Ken Paxton today at the Texas Supreme Courtis a big win for the rule of law but because of Paxton hatred, many can’t understand this fundamental principle.

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: Leftist media would have you believe that Texas public schools are about to start teaching from the Bible. One, this is not true. Two, our culture, history, and politics cannot accurately be taught without reference to the Bible and Christian principles. We create a huge gap in people’s education if they are not familiar with references to Biblical influence.

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: Trump’s new Chief of Staff has it right: Trump has a window of opportunity of only “two years” to change the federal government for the better. This time he is getting good people in place early.

Is Texas Senator John Cornyn threatening Trump to stop appointment of Ken Paxton as Attorney General? Probably but my gut makes me think that Paxton is not on the short list to begin with. Either way we see how nasty and anti-conservative is the swamp-swimmer Cornyn.

Our Lone Star story of the day: Mandate, D-EXIT, or whatever you term it, the real question is if Trump, and at this point Vance, can keep it. Or, do they do as happened in other cases and turn to inward DC deal making in such a way that the people no longer perceive the fight to be on their behalf?
