Pearland’s Golf Crest Country Club to Host Jan 6 Felon

August 12, 2025

It’s happening today at lunch. Get your tickets now! It should be an explosive event!

The Tri-County Women’s Republic Club will be hosting Jeremy Brown at Pearland’s Golf Crest Country Club, a Jan 6 rioter who was serving a 7 year sentence on a related charge until Trump pardoned him. Brown served in the Army Special Forces and was charged with entering a restricted area and disrupting of a government activity, charges that usually warrants probation. He was in jail for 1243 days before being released. Why, you might ask.

Brown was serving a 7 year sentence for the possession of illegal weapons including grenades. Trump’s pardon of his role in the Jan 6 riots also applied to this sentence. So he is free to speak at the Country Club and honored for his violent role. And the Country Club doesn’t have a problem with it.

I contacted the entire staff at the Club asking if the Club was an appropriate venue for someone like Brown. I did not receive a response. I even wrote one of those things called a “letter”, a real piece of paper in a stamped envelope to the Board President and received no response. So I can only assume they condone this event.

This is where republicans are at. The claim to praise their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ while also praising those who break the law, engage in riots, and are convicted of possessing illegal weapons. As they say “Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition”.

Sick. Just fucking sick.

HCDE Trustee Eric Dick Fails to Donate $40,000 as Promised

August 12, 2025

Will anyone hold Trustee Dick accountable?

Back in December I filed a grievance against Eric Dick for his refusal to pay a $40,000 fine accessed by the Texas Ethics Commission. I believed the Board took the complaint very seriously but I was surprised that they agreed to accept a donation to HCDE of $40,000 in lieu of a censure of Dick. That was then.

Nine months later there is no evidence that Dick has actually donated any money as agreed and he has not paid his Ethics fine accessed back in 2022. An open records request for any evidence that he donated the $40,000 came up empty. It’s not like he doesn’t have any money. According to the Texas Ethics Committee he has donated over $47,000 to political candidates including $20,000 to the Community Justice PAC since 2024.

Worst of all no organization will hold him accountable. The Ethics Commission does not have enforcement authority, the Texas Attorney General has refused to collect the debt, The Harris County District Attorney’s Office is not taking action, and the Harris County Attorney has refused to hold him accountable.

The only action has been by the Texas AG. They sent him a strongly worded letter demanding payment within 10 days or they will proceed with collections. That was over a year ago.

Dick is a Republican. Law and Order my ass.

Stop the Steal Rally at the Texas Capitol

August 11, 2025

Be there! It will be wild!

The Stop the Steal Movement is organizing another rally this time at the Texas Capitol. According to the organizer “The only way they can win is to rig the elections and If you don’t fight like hell you’re not going to have a country anymore. You’ll never take back our country with weakness.”. The first Stop the Steal rally was held in Washington DC and resulted in an attack on the Capitol, the arrest of hundreds, and millions in cleanup costs.

We want Greg Abbott to know that redistricting in the middle of the decade is unconstitutional and we are going to the Capitol, peacefully and patriotically to make our voices heard. You have an opportunity today: You can be a hero, or you can be a zero. And the choice is yours but we are all watching. There is a significant portion of our party that says we should just sit idly by and sit on our hands. They have no backbone. Let’s have trial by combat. Let’s show Greg Abbott that today is the day American patriots start taking down names and kicking ass.

Unlike the rally at the United States Capitol rally goers are discouraged from dressing in riot wear, bringing guns, zip ties, bear spray, or metal poles. Anyone violating these rules will be arrested, prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and pardoned.

Date and Time TBD. Be there! It will be wild! Welcome to Satire Sunday, a day late.

Thank God for CCISD! Keller ISD Investigation and Lawsuit

August 11, 2025

Keller ISD is a perfect example of why we need campaign finance reform.

Background
A couple of years ago Patriot Mobile donated $50,000 each to three far right candidates for the Keller ISD Board. They ran as a “coalition of conservatives”, won and brought their far right politics and controversies with them.

The Movie
Shortly after being elected two board members invited a Dutch evangelist film crew into a high school without the permission of the parents, principal, or school board. Trustee Sandi Walker resigned and many called for the resignation of Trustee Micah Young. The Dutch eventually aired a Praise Jesus movie featuring the high school students. Parents were not happy and I would bet there is a lawsuit working it’s way through the courts.

Former Trustee Micah Young

The Split
Last year the Board considered a plan to split the district in two due to financial burdens. The split was met with fierce opposition calling it racially motivated. Keller ISD has about 34,000 students. For comparision, CCISD has about 45,000 students. Eventually the split failed but that didn’t end the controversy.

The Investigation
Board members are now being investigated for violation of State law concerning the Open Meetings Act, which is serious stuff. Trustee Micah Young, one of the $50,000 candidates, posted a long “I am the victim” post on his Facebook acct. He posted a text from Fort Worth Star-Telegram’s Cody Copeland who was asking Micah for comments for a story about board members meeting in violation of the Open Meetings Act. He has since deleted his entire account or has blocked me. Or maybe his lawyer told him to delete it because he and other members of the Board are in some deep shit. Seriously deep shit. Parents are now petitioning for the removal of three Board members.

The Lawsuit
According to Cody Copeland of the Fort Worth Star a lawsuit has been filed to remove members of the board violated the Open Meetings Act:

Keller school board trustees who tried to split the district earlier this year began discussing the proposal as early as May 2024, according to a lawsuit filed Thursday in a Tarrant County district court. They previously held that the earliest they discussed the split before it became public was Dec. 19.

Not only would they be removed from the Board they could also be held criminally responsible for their actions. Micah Young did not run for reelection. $50,000 down the drain.

Campaign Finance Reform
Keller ISD could be the poster child for campaign finance reform. Thank God for the voters of CCISD who improved our School Board at the last election!

Christians Embrace Texas Senator Mayes Middleton’s Racist Comments

August 7, 2025

JESUS CHRIST! Literally.

Senator Mayes Middleton, who has doubled down on his racist comments towards State Representative Gene Wu, has been confirmed as the speaker for the Texas Faith Fest sponsored by Texas Values. Texas Values promotes their core “family values”:

Biblical, Judeo-Christian values does not include making racist comments, or porking a porn star, cheating on your spouse, stealing classified documents, killing police, starting riots, yada yada yada. You get the idea. So it shouldn’t surprise you that Mayes is their speaker along with the other top “christians”Greg Abbott, Ken Paxton’s wife, and others. Personally I think this group is nothing more than a lobbying group using Christianity as a front.

Senator Middleton Refuses to Respond to his Racist Tweet

August 6, 2025

The so called “Conservative Christian” is standing by his racist tweet:

So far the Houston Public Media and Click2Houston have asked for a comment from Senator Mayes Middleton concerning his racist tweet directed at Representative Gene Wu. He and his staff are silent. Calls to his office in League City are now directed to a recording. Callers to his office in Austin are told “I haven’t talked with him about this issue….yada yada yada”. From the Houston Public Media:

“Senator Middleton represents a very diverse population in the Bay Area,” the group said. “The state does not need an individual running for the highest legal office in the state who spouts off racist comments. Middleton claims to be a conservative and devout Christian but making racist comments are neither a conservative value nor a Christian value.”

Mayes represents [sic] the Bay Area of Harris County, Galveston County and part of Brazoria. He has been in office for 6 years and has never met with his constituents. His Austin office (512) 463-0111 rarely answers or return calls. His local office (281)332-1000 is answered by a recording. His district has been hammered with out of control home insurance rates and yet he has ignored the issue. He has been invited to speak with homeowners on multiple times and has refused. He spends his time meeting with only the business community.

In 2019 he spent $2 Million of his own money to win a House seat. He spent another $1.6 Million of his own money to win his Senate seat and he intends to spend $20 Million of his own money to win the Texas Attorney General’s seat. See a pattern here? Middleton is nothing but a white, rich, privileged, and now, racist republican.

Middleton claims to be a conservative Christian. He has sponsored bills concerning vouchers, prayer in schools, allowing preachers to be school counselors, posting “In god we Trust” signs the Ten Commandments in all public schools. As the article says, racism is NOT a conservative nor a Christian value.

Senator Middleton should be ashamed of himself and should apologize to Representative Wu, his church, and his constituents or he should step down, take a knee, and ask for forgiveness from his Lord and Savior.

Candidate for Attorney General Posts Racist Tweet

August 4, 2025

It’s the Bay Area’s own State Senator Mayes Middleton.

Dear Senator Mayes Middleton,

What the f*** is wrong with you? Seriously. Do you think it is funny to make a comment like that? Texas Representative Gene Wu was born in China. His parents immigrated to the United States shortly afterward. He is a United States citizen, an outstanding Legislator, a well respected attorney, and an over all wonderful individual. Making a racist comment towards him or towards anyone is not acceptable for anyone, much less a State Senator.

You claim to be a “conservative” but making racist comments is NOT a conservative value. You claim to be a devout “Christian” but making racist comments goes against the teachings of Christ. You should be ashamed of yourself for stooping so low.

You owe Representative Wu and apology as well as to your church and to your constituents. Or maybe you should consider stepping down, taking a knee, and asking forgiveness from your Savior.

BREAKING: Jaws of Life Called to the Texas State Capitol

August 1, 2025

Multiple members of the Texas Republican Party were involved.

The Austin fire department and the “jaws of life” were called for an accident involving a bus carrying a number of Republican law makers. No family members were involved. According to the report: “The Austin Fire Department Station 42 was called late Thursday night to assist the law makers. Our first responders, who are trained in the use of the jaws of life, were unable to free many of the individuals but will not stop trying until the job is completed and everyone is rescued.”

According to the first responders the accident happened after a fundraiser for the Texas Republican Party with members of the Texas House, all Republicans. “When we arrived at the accident we immediately called for the jaws of life. The scene was horrible with many trapped in the bus gasping for air and pleading for help.”

“Our brave first responders took decisive action with the jaws of life and tried to pry each and every one of them off of Donald Trump’s ass, but they was stuck. I’ve never seen so many people on their knees sucking someone’s ass so hard that they got stuck. We continue to struggle with the situation. The fact that Trump continued to walk around with so many of the Texas Republican delegation stuck to his ass didn’t help.”

Texas is well known for their saying “We do things bigger in Texas”, including having some of the biggest ass kissers in the country. 

Welcome to fucking Friday and to the great ass kissing state of Texas.

Who is Traci Gibson and why is she running for HCDP Chair?

July 30, 2025

Just an FYI. I have reached out to Traci and have not received a response.

According to the Texas Ethics Commission Traci Gibson has filed an appointment of treasurer for her run for Harris County Democratic Party chair. At a time when unity is needed anyone running for Chair has be questioned. I would like to know why she is running but she has refused to respond.

The current Chair has been in office for just a short time and there is absolutely no reason to challenge him especially by someone with little or no experience for the job. Mike Doyle, the current Chair, has served the party very well. According to an email circulating with the precinct chairs she is a new precinct chair with no voting record in the 2020, 2022, or 2024 Democratic primary and yet she now wants to lead the party. She hasn’t been in the field. She hasn’t been involved with county politics. With these qualifications she is not qualified to run.

I’m waiting for a response from her as well as finding out who is financially supporting and encouraging her to run.
