Our Lone Star story of the day: Allred outraised Cruz in Q3 but didn’t say how much cash-on-hand he had. Kamala Harris told ABC’s “The View” today that she would do nothing different from Joe Biden. And, one report claims the Denton County elections administrator is insisting that non-citizens who are registered to vote must be allowed to vote even if all the present for voter ID is a special non-citizen version of a Texas driver license. I explain what this may be about.

Our Lone Star story of the day: Media, Democrat double-standard on full display over Hurricane Helene and the federal response to the disaster. There is a fundamental, anti-progressive, lesson in it all showing why you should never order a society to depend upon “experts” and bureaucrats but instead upon a free and largely autonomous people.

Our Lone Star story of the day: The Dallas County Republican Chairman, Allen West, says that Dallas County elections equipment failed required tests and that the elections administrator did not note the failures observed in the public test on the required attestation statement. If true, this is a major problem and Secretary of State needs to step in immediately. Even if the failures observed were of human error, that is still a systems problem than must be corrected before actual ballot counting begins.

Our Lone Star story of the day: The so-called “shocking” and “bombshell” accusations in Jack Smith’s revised “election interference” indictment of Donald Trump are anything but shocking or bombshell. The media just expects you to read the headlines without examining the charges. MediaIte lists what it calls the “11 most shocking revelations in new DOJ filing” and yet none of them are particular shocking at all and nothing on the list comes close to being anything that is a crime.

To buy into any of this one must take the position that working within the constitutional system to challenge, slow down, investigate, or correct an election is somehow a crime. Where was this philosophy when Democrats tried to steal the presidential election with Al Gore by recounting Florida ballots until they knocked off enough hanging chads on punch card ballots to win?

Kamala Harris lies, outright lies, about what is need to got our border and immigration system under control – all that is needed is to enforce existing law. Why is it not impeachable and a serious threat to democracy that she and Biden refuse to enforce American law?

Our Lone Star story of the day: Texas voter registration now tops 18 million and key races get closer and closer by the cycle. Will Texas return to an electorally competitive state? Many say it is happening now – what will it take for those who became active only in an era of strong GOP dominance to wake up and get to the kind of work it took to win that dominance?

Our Lone Star story of the day: New polling is interesting and shows that Texas Republicans could lose the U.S. Senate race. Democrat liberal Colin Allred is polling neck and neck with Ted Cruz. I give a full rundown of the detail of the poll done by Public Policy Polling.

All the free media publicity around man-child Beto Pancho O’Rourke had Republicans working but this time around we don’t see the same work ethic yet Allred is polling better than did Beto.

Texas manufacturing down; service sector okay but relative flat, and; retail continues its contraction.

The longshoreman strike shows what is, and has always been, wrong with the labor union movement: Unions have always been as greedy as they and their allies have painted business owners or “capital” to be. Press reports say that ILA [union] members currently have a base salary of $81,000, but large amounts of overtime can allow some to reach $200,000 for manual labor jobs.

Our Lone Star story of the day: Another county adopts the No New Revenue Tax Rate without causing the sky to fall. New figures out today from Lubbock County’s newly factored No New Revenue Tax Rate budget shows what an outright unmitigated liar Bowtie Bully Curtis Parrish, and his other allies, was with the “deep cuts” scare tactics.

Note this: “Galveston County Commissioners Court passed a budget for FY 2025 based on a property tax rate below the NNR rate. According to Galveston County Judge Mark Henry, this is the 14th year in a row the county has lowered property taxes.” Why that is not possible according to fake Republican Parrish!

Our Lone Star story of the day: Maybe the media makes sure, at the story source level, that there is little “widespread election fraud” on which to report by making sure many of the stories get little press coverage – that will certainly fool the search engines! Today we talk with Abilene Republican Women’s Club president Diana Hartmann about a fraudulent voter registration story local media is mostly ignoring even though there has been an official press release from the Taylor County elections administrator.

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: The Ted Cruz, Colin Allred race is tight meaning Texas’ U.S. Senate seat is in play and yet, with some notable exceptions, the local GOP apparatus in the key counties to offset the liberal city vote, as well as the state Republican Party, is full of young people who are busy at playing party politics instead of at the hard work needed to ensure statewide victory. Work that should have kicked off in August is not being done and we are already in late September. It’s as if these folk, who have no idea how much work it took to turn this state from a Democrat swamp into a GOP stronghold, are sitting around thinking the Trump turnout will be enough to win it all. Let us pray they are right because there isn’t much work being done to ensure massive, city offsetting, turnout in the places in Texas that give Republicans solid statewide wins.
