Well, they knew what they were walking into.

The City of Houston, via Houston First, allowed the Texas Republican Party to bring a live elephant to the floor of their convention at the George R. Brown Convention Center. After being paraded around it stopped and pee-ed all over the floor. If you have never seen an elephant pee before, see the video below.

Not only did the elephant piss all over their shoes the Republicans left the mess to the GRB staff to clean up. Imagine that. Yet another mess created by the Republican Party left up to others to clean up. But that wasn’t the worst thing that happened. The convention was attended by Mexican MAGAts and at least four Muslim MAGAts. Go figure.

At the convention the party called for an end to Sharia law, which has never started in Texas or anywhere in the United States, but that is red meat for the republican delegates and they ate it up. It turned into a Muslim bashing with one of the four Muslims in attendance leaving in tears. It is hard to feel sorry for the Muslims in attendance. They knew what they were doing by entering the den of hate. They should have asked others what the Republican Party thinks of them. Ask the Latinos, Jews, police, teachers, women, gays, and non-christians. Walking into the republican convention was just plain stupid. Unlike the elephant they had a choice.

And they chose wrong. Maybe in November these Muslims will join with the Whites, Blacks, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans, gay, straight, police, Jews, Muslims, and others and wipe the floor of the Republican Party.

June 15, 2026 9:00AM. 24-CV-2218 | Walter Burt, Et Al vs. Joseph Lowry. 212th District Court, Grady, Patricia.

This ought to be interesting. The case against La Marque Councilman Joseph Lowry finally goes to trial on Monday June 15. Jury selection is expected in the morning and hopefully the trial will begin in the afternoon. If you are interested you can view an excerpt from Lowry’s deposition here. This trial concerns harassment, stalking, and threats made by Lowry against a number of individuals including City Councilwoman Kimberly Yancy for violating a previous settlement.

Back in 2022 Lowry was sued for harassment by Council Member Yancy resulting in an agreement to refrain from threatening or harassing comments that would give rise to criminal action on social media, newspapers, and any media outlet not explicitly stated herein. Galveston County Case # 22-CV-0993. The current suit has a number of counts with #6 is referring to Lowry’s breach of this agreement. The counts are:

• Breach of Contract against Kimberley Yancy 
• Defamation
• Harrassment
• Stalking
• Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress: 
• Public Disclosure of Private Facts: 

The violation of that agreement was discussed in Lowry’s deposition. It seems like a slam dunk to me. He agreed to the settlement(Rule 11 Agreement) and he violated it. Drinks will follow the trial.

Sweet Fancy Moses!

Bo French is the former Tarrant County Republican Chair. He isn’t the most popular chair even amongst Republicans, in fact many have called for his resignation for his many racist comments and social media posts. The Texas Tribune wrote a detailed report on Bo prior to the Republican primary yet he still won running on deporting 100 million people from the United States. Even Lt. Governor Dan Patrick, Mr Extreme Far Right, has distanced himself from Bo. This guy is sick. Truly a UFO, Unqualified For Office, yet Republicans still want him as the representative of the Party for Railroad Commissioner.

Deporting 100 people from the US and attacking Jews and Muslims have nothing to do with the office of Texas Railroad Commission. The TRC actually regulates the oil industry to make sure they are not extracting oil while polluting the surrounding environment. The TRC makes sure the industry is making money but in a responsible manner. It has nothing to do with being a full blown racist mother f***er.

Besides being a racist mother f***er, Bo is running on being a part of the “Nuclear family” while being divorced from his wife. Much like Paxton that is actually a plus in the eyes of the Republican voters. Luckily Republican voters have lost all sense of moral values. They are groping in the dark looking for their moral compass and don’t really care if they ever find it. To them Bo is a winner, as is Paxton, and Trump. Bo likes to tout his “nuclear family” yet his wife is either taking this picture or has divorced his ass.

Here are a few jewels attributed to Bo:

He is one of the Texas Billionaires buying a State election and recently purchased the mansion formerly owned by Jeffery Epstein.

Don Huffines is a State Senator who used his billions of dollars to overwhelm the opposition in his election to the Senate. He has run for other offices such as Congress and even challenging Greg Abbott for Governor. He lost those elections. He is considered to be right of Abbott and wrong on his purpose for running. He is now the Republican nominee for Texas Comptroller running on ending Sharia Law and putting the Jesus back into the Jesus F***ing Christ.

Like his other races the billionaire is self funding, spending millions to secure the nomination. His campaign finance reports for 2025-2026 tell a partial story. He raised a total of $7.1 Million with $3.5 million from his own pocket. But he also has a $15 Million outstanding loan from himself. He will be able to flood the media with this kind of money much like Senator Money Mayes Middleton did in the Bay Area. He also received $1 Million from a Georgia PAC, Protect Freedom. To call them a far right PAC is an insult to the far right. Moving any far right they will fall off the edge of the flat earth.

Huffines has $15 million cash on hand which is about $14 Million more than he needs. Most people don’t know what the Comptroller does including me but know this, a extreme far right multibillionaire is using his money to win the seat.

Conservatives have lost their home.

MAGAts up and down the ballot have dominated the Texas GOP primary except for one or two candidates. Senator John Cornyn was absolutely trampled by Ken Paxton 63-37. It was so bad, many called the race once early votes were posted. This was a good old fashioned ass whopping especially after Cornyn spent his last few months ass kissing to Trump, all for naught. Trump is no dummy. He saw the polls He endorsed Paxton. He didn’t want to look like the loser he is.

In other races Money MAGAt Mayes Middleton won the runoff for Texas Attorney General running on wiping out Sharia Law wherever it exists, even though it doesn’t exist anywhere. To Money, Muslims are the new Mexicans ripe for the attack. If elected Middleton will be just another ass kisser to Trump. At least he hasn’t been impeached or been caught porking someone besides his wife. Yet.

Bo French won the primary for Texas Railroad Commissioner. French ran on bashing Muslims and Jews as if the RRC has anything to do with Muslim or Jewish issues, but joining Money Mayes on bashing Muslims works for MAGAts. He was condemned by Republican leaders across the board many calling for his resignation including Lt Governor Dan Patrick. French has an interesting background, almost losing his Chair of the Tarant County Republican Party due to his Muslim and Jewish bashing. Like Paxton he is a true MAGAt conservative pictured with his 20 kids on his website with his wife taking the picture or being out of the picture. (She is out.) French is a MAGAt. A true, bigoted, racist, divorced, MAGAt.

Locally new comer Richard Vega, another true, born again, MAGAt won his primary for Harris County Commissioner. His primary opponent tried unsuccessfully to highlight his gang banging past but as I said he is born again and that, according to Christians, absolves him from any wrongdoing. Luckily he is a MAGAt. MAGAts just don’t care about your past, unless you are a Democrat.

Orlando Sanchez, another Mexican MAGAt, won his primary for Harris County Judge. Sanchez used his own money for this primary. The party was hoping for an upset with Annise Parker losing. She did. I expect tens of millions to be spent on this race on behalf of Sanchez. Unlike others Sanchez doesn’t have a strong connection to the MAGAt party or to Trump. Maybe he is taking the advice of former Judge Ed Emmett and keeping his head down, shutting the fuck up, and running like a true conservative.

And let’s not forget Scott Bowen, the youngest, voucher loving, living with his mom, MAGAt on the ballot running for State Representative. You can find all you want about him here. It is a long read.

These are just a few examples of who Texans have to vote for and what the Republican Party has become. The MAGAts of Texas have crushed the Conservatives in the party. Its conservative values of local control, fiscal responsibility, strong on crime, yada yada, have been replaced by bigotry, fiscal stupidity, and mass pardons for criminals.

This is Trump’s party now.

Thank god for La Marque.

La Marque has been in the news quite a bit because of one single council member causing chaos with unsubstantiated claims of corruption, lawlessness, criminality and calls for unnecessary and costly “forensic audits”. Seabrook, on the other hand, escaped this chaos a few years ago electing a new Mayor and Council Members dedicated to being a bit boring, doing the job, and providing services for the community. This is exactly what every elected official should be doing especially in non partisan races. Fortunately the voters of La Marque ran off the Council Members wife in their recent election, but….there is a runoff coming June 13 in Seabrook.

Seabrook voters have a chance to stay out of the news with competent, non partisan, leadership. This election pits Aaron McGuire against Bryon Hanssen. Aaron is associated with the Save Seabrook group, one that is trying to save Seabrook from whatever they can make up like unsubstantiated claims of corruption, lawlessness, criminality and calls for unnecessary and costly “forensic audits”. Back in May of 2025 the Save Seabrook candidates didn’t fare well:

The candidates of the Save Seabrook (SS) Squad were enjoying spicy crawfish at The Barge on election night, at least for a little while. In the end all but one lost. Angela Cervantes is the only SS candidate that won her seat on City Council. Jackie Rasco lost. J.P. Byers lost. Kyra Burton lost. Chris Hues lost. I really didn’t see this coming and I bet they didn’t appreciate the guy in the corner playing WOMP WOMP on his trombone.

Angela was the only successful candidate. Her time, so far, on Council could be more productive but adding another SS Council Member will not help. Calling for unnecessary and expensive forensic audits, as former Councilman Joe Machol has demanded will not move the city forward.

Voters should consider Saving Seabrook from chaos.

There are multiple reports. This one is looney.

An open records request for the copies of police reports filed by La Marque City Councilman Joseph Lowry resulted in a 122 page document. You can review all the reports filed for the last two years by Lowry here. Some of these reports are petty, funny, and disturbing. For instance report #23-00128 filed on 1/21/23. Lowry called in a terroristic threat. Somehow that was classified as an “Attempted Suicide”. Officer A.Skaggs with the La Marque Police Department handled the incident which was eventually closed. You can read the report below.

According to the report Lowry had received a letter with a picture of pigs eating and the caption “Lowery’s Family”. It was mailed from the Houston area from “The citizens of La Marque”. Obviously someone was comparing Lowry and his wife to pigs, which is an insult to pigs, a crime in itself. But clearly it was nothing more than an insult. Lowry called the police because he believed it was a threat because people feed pigs dead people. (I’m not making this up) Lowry demanded that the letter be put into evidence and processed for finger prints. Lowry also requested DNA to be collected and processed as well as a forensic audit of the Post Office because they are all criminals. (ok. That last sentence I made up)

The police stated he was hog tied and unable to spend significant time on his case but will continue the investigation when pigs fly. He suggested that Lowry should not go pig wild in his attempt to make a pigs ear out of something. He also stated there are a number of other police reports and he could piggy back on one of those. Lowry continued to squeal like a stuck pig and was last seen at the all you can eat salad bar.

OK. That last paragraph was also made up. Read the 122 page document here. There are a number of disturbing reports that should be read.
