Bay Area Houston

My bet is he is getting his ass sued.

La Marque City Councilman Chicken Little Lowry has had his Facebook page LowryNewsNetwork removed. His so-called independent news outlet, LowryNewsNetwork.press has also become inactive. . I’ve seen this before. My guess he is being sued by a number of possible individuals and has been told to preserve all content on his Lousy News Network. He hasn’t posted anything since early January and he hasn’t removed comments left by anonymous visitors such as this one below.

This is the second time Facebook has removed his site probably due to his constant harassment and baseless allegations of criminal activity by members of City Council and city employees. Or maybe it was his sexual harassment of city employees. Or maybe the empty threats of legal action against various individuals, including me. By the way, after last Monday’s council meeting Lowry issued another empty threat to City employees. Much like the threats he made to the Texas City employees who were no billed in their felony charges of impersonating Lowry. You can see the email he sent below.

As I have said before. Lowry is like a constipated two year old. He is full of shit and he ain’t gonna do shit.

At a time when the city can least afford it.

Once again it is Council Member Joseph Lowry. Lowry continues to run around like Chicken Little with his baseless allegations of criminal activity against elected officials and La Marque employees. In his recent “Facebook Live” video, where he looks like bum in a wife beater shirt, Lowry again alleges the Deputy City Clerk is a criminal and is leaving her position. City Council Members probably can’t file suit because of their office but city employees can and probably will.

If she is really leaving I smell a lawsuit coming against Lowry for harassment and workplace hostility. Unfortunately that suit might also target the City at a time when the taxpayers can least afford it, literally. While everyone on Council and employees are working to restore La Marque’s financial security, Lowry is running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off talking out his ass and making empty threats against the City, the Mayor, Council Members, city staff, Texas City staff, and anyone else he can. (Including me) Yet he never follows through. He probably has a direct line into the La Marque Police Department so he can file baseless complaints. So far nothing has stuck.

BTW. Lowry is facing a lawsuit from multiple people with a court date in May. He also has a suit in Harris County with a court date coming soon. It will be fun to watch Lowry take the stand under oath.

I think it is going to be great ass kicking.

Well it looks like the only person actually breaking or bending the law is Council Member Joseph Lowry.

Lowry still owes taxes for 2024 and 2025 and he recently paid off liens against his company by the IRS and the State. This is a sitting Council Member, one that runs around calling everyone a criminal. It’s getting old. Now his wife is running for City Council, or so he says. He has enough money to run a campaign but not enough to pay his damn taxes.

Not literally but it’s embarrassing.

A grand jury declined to indict two IT workers working for Texas City. They were charged with a 3rd degree felony for impersonating La Marque City Councilman Joseph Lowry. The grand jury “no-billed” the charges and Lowry is now running around like chicken little claiming the DA’s office or whoever presented the case screwed up. WOMP WOMP.

He is also threatening the two who were charged claiming if they do not hand over some kind of information he will file a civil suit against them. Good luck with that. I have said it before, Lowry is like a constipated two year old. He ain’t gonna do shit. Lowry has made threats before and never carried them out. He made threats to me claiming I was harassing and stalking him. He claimed he was going to turn me into the appropriate authorities. He didn’t. La Marque Police Department has no record of him doing squat.

The harassment has been documented and is being reported to the appropriate authorities. LNN Reborn will continue to monitor and report any further developments involving this individual and others engaged in similar conduct.

He has made threats to the city and others and hasn’t done shit. So Monday will come and go and he probably won’t do shit and will end up full of even more shit. I’ve served on 3 grand juries. After hearing thousands of cases we averaged about a 1.8% no-bill rate. The bar is very low for an indictment. Grand jurors are not asked to determine guilt, they are only asked to determine if there is credible evidence a crime has been committed. If so, they indict and send the case to a jury. To be no-billed means there wasn’t evidence there was a crime committed.

And Lowry is pissed.

It’s Lowry. Again.

I’ve seen this behavior before. Someone pushes the boundaries of the law or the workplace, making racist comments, sexual harassment in the workplace, making unsubstantiated allegations, making threats, etc, etc. and then all of a sudden they are born again Christians. This looks like what is happening to La Marque City Councilman Joseph Lowry.

Lowry has a long, long history of doing all of the above including making false DBAs for Council Member and one of his favorite targets. But all of a sudden Lowry’s behavior has changed and he is on a pity me tour. His “Lowry News Network” website has gone cold. He was on his best behavior acting like a productive member of the City Council at the last meeting. And just recently he posted an AI generated “Oh pity me I’m born again” post on Facebook. It’s typical behavior when something or someone has legally slapped the hell out of him.

My bet is that his behavior has caught up with him. He probably has been approached by the new Police Chief or the District Attorney, or maybe the Judge in Washington State who issued a Domestic Violence Protection Order against him. Or maybe his deposition in the various civil suits have caught up with him, exposing his conduct of harassment. So now he is asking for forgiveness or maybe a get out of jail card.

You can read the entire pity me post below.

It’s Lowry. Again.

La Marque City Councilman Joseph Lowry is being sued by a number of individuals as well as “all residents of Galveston County, Texas.” That is interesting. Case # 24-CV-2218 | Walter Burt, Et Al vs. Joseph Lowry trial date was set for 1/26/26 but has now been delayed till 5/18/26.

The Judge has issued the jury preliminary instructions. It is a very interesting read. You can read the entire instructions here. This looks like a summary paragraph:

“The plaintiffs allege that defendant has been posting harassing, defamatory, threatening and stalking statements on Facebook. The plaintiffs claim these posts have affected their daily lives and businesses. The defendant operates a news page, personal page, and numerous other pages on Facebook under various names where he posts statements about the plaintiffs.”

According to the instructions there are six counts the jury must make a decision on. Count six, Breach of Contract against Kimberley Yancy is interesting. 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 I bet count six is referring to Lowry’s breach of this agreement. The counts are:

1. Defamation
2. Harrassment
3. Stalking
4. Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress: 
5. Public Disclosure of Private Facts: 
6. Breach of Contract against Kimberley Yancy 

So breakfast tacos will be delayed till May.

Don’t hold your breath for Councilman Lowry to file a suit against the city. He is like a constipated two year old. He can’t do shit.

The Chicken Little of La Marque Texas has failed. Womp Womp. The Galveston County News had an excellent article about the failed recall of the Mayor. If you can, take a few minutes to read it, but let me summarize. Lowry is blaming the City Clerk for not giving him enough signature sheets. He had plenty and wasn’t able to even fill those up. He is blaming the city and threatening a lawsuit as I posted earlier, demanding 100 billion dollars. (actually it is $750,000) He acknowledged the recall effort failed. According to the article:

Lowry late Tuesday had not provided documentation supporting his allegation of criminal conduct. The city clerk had not been charged with any offense, and no law enforcement agency had announced an investigation related to the matter.

So now what? Lowry ain’t going to sue anyone for anything. If he does he will have to go through a process called discovery and disclose all of his so called “evidence” of the crimes the Mayor committed as Lowry claimed on the recall petition. Lowry ain’t that stupid. If he is and does file suit then his 5 years of undercover investigative journalism against the Mayor will finally pay off, for everyone but Lowry. It will probably show he was passing around false information on the petition, possibly a felony offense. But don’t hold your breath. He has made threats before and hasn’t done shit. Much like Chicken Little yelling “The sky is falling” Lowry is yelling “Criminal Activity”.

Lowry is now in deflection mode and has resorted to posting pictures of himself with wads of cash, cash he could have used to pay his damn taxes and liens by the IRS, the State, and the City.

This is getting old.

La Marque City Councilman Joseph Lowry, AKA Chicken Little, is at it again. According to Lowry he has been running in circles for 5 years exposing criminal activity, bribes, cabal-ing, yada yada and yet like a constipated two year old he ain’t doing shit. Now he is threatening a lawsuit against the citizens of La Marque because he needs a distraction from his failed recall petition.

Lowry has posted a confidential pre-suit notice to social media. (so much for being confidential) It looks like an AI generated legal document. He is good at using AI. He makes claims about the City Clerk, the Mayor, and others claiming civil rights violations, yada, yada. He is demanding restitution of $750,000 from the citizens of La Marque. It’s hard to read. It makes you want to sit back and tell Chicken Little to cluck off and STFU. Seriously. This is embarrassing. Hell I’m embarrassed for writing about it.

This pre-suit is about Lowry’s failed attempt at obtaining enough signatures for a petition to recall the Mayor. Lowry has until Tuesday to submit his petitions for the County to verify. As I said earlier he has probably failed and is now looking for a scapegoat. I doubt he will make his petitions public for the citizens of La Marque to see, but if he files suit he will be forced to submit to discovery. If you want to waste some time you can read the entire document at The Mark, a Facebook page documenting Lowry’s daily stupidity. I suggest doing something more productive like eating day old sushi at your local gas station.

The City Council meeting on Monday ought to be interesting.

La Marque’s Chicken Little is clucking mad!

La Marque City Councilman Joseph Lowry might have failed to obtain enough signatures to force a recall of the Mayor and he is madder than a wet hen. Mr. Chicken Little went to social media to blame the City Clerk claiming he wasn’t given enough signature sheets. These sheets cannot be copied and must be obtained from the city and have a city stamp.

According to a whiny ass video, Mr. Little posted to Facebook, the clerk gave him enough petition sheets for 750 signatures. (I thought he only needed about 500 signatures) He now claims he asked for more and she refused. Of course he claims she is a “criminal”. He claims he whined to the police and they wouldn’t take any action. He then starts whining about the tax increases and some other crap once again calling everyone a criminal including the Mayor, Council Members, and the Clerk. He even starts blaming the District Attorney’s office and demands action. The video is 6 minutes of red faced stupidity. He might want to check his blood pressure.

I wouldn’t trust Mr. Little’s word. He is probably just trying to blame someone else for his stupid stunt that probably has failed miserably. I bet he obtained less than 100 signatures. Of course he can make the signature sheets public record to prove that I am full of wit but you have a better chance of Lowry passing up a donut shop without stopping.

The City Clerk needs to tell Chicken Little to cluck off. Lowry was last seen running around in circles, flapping his arms and yelling about someone being a criminal.

Happy New Year! Hopefully Lowry will exit the political arena and go back to paying his bills and taxes.

In 2025 Joseph Lowry made a partial payment of back taxes owed to Galveston County. According to the tax office he owed $22,460 for 2021, 2022, and 2023. On Jan 6, 2025 he made a partial payment in cash. He still owes for 2024 and 2025. Unfortunately he had more tax problem from the IRS back in 2023 and 2025 as well as the State of Texas in 2020. Lowry has had delinquent tax problems on the County, State and Federal level.

According to records provided by Galveston County the IRS filed a lien against his company, Six Brothers Concrete Pumping for over $16,000. In 2025 a lien was filed for over $67,000. Both liens were released by June of 2025.

But wait! There’s more! In 2020 the State of Texas filed a lien for delinquent taxes for over $10,000. He eventually paid this in late 2021. According to this document he owed over $2,500 in city taxes which completes the cycle of delinquent taxes on the Federal, State, County, and City level. Lowry likes to flash around wads of cash like he did to ABC 13 to pay his team of investigators and lawyers but he doesn’t have enough to pay his damn taxes like everyone else.

It’s CLEAT. Combined Law Enforcement Associations of Texas.

Recently CLEAT, specifically the La Marque Police Association, was referenced in a fake email submitted by City Council Member Joseph Lowry. Mr Chicken Little, submitted this email to Council during executive session with concerns about extending the contract of Interim City Manager Holly. As the Galveston Daily News stated, the LMPA didn’t write the email. It is believed an investigation is ongoing as it should be. The individual who sent the email to Lowry, Impoliceassociation@gmail.com, immediately deleted the account.

CLEAT is now fishing for records between the former Police Chief, who resigned in disgrace, Cesar Garcia and Christine Turner. Cesar was the City Manager and resigned in Jan of 2025. Christine Turner is the Financial Director for La Marque. One thing is for sure. CLEAT is for CLEAT. Whatever they are fishing for with their Public Information Request 25-541 is in defense of CLEAT or the La Marque Police Association who has cuddled up with Joseph Lowry.

Galveston Police Detective Anthony C. Rogers and President of the LMPA is involved with Lowry. That can’t be good. Happy fishing!

Do yourself a favor and research who filed the recall against Mayor Keith Bell.

City Councilman Chicken Little, Lowry filed a recall petition and is now soliciting signatures. If he can obtain the required number of valid signatures the City will spent a considerable amount of time and money to put the recall to the voters. This isn’t the first time Lowry has submitted a recall petition. In 2022 prior to being elected to office, he filed a recall of Bell. It failed. Then he filed a recall against Council Member Yancy. It also failed.

The Yancy recall had some questionable signatures gained by telling those who signed, the petition was to keep Yancy on Council. Lowry told Click2Houston: ““I got wind of it yesterday and they terminated the employee. He was terminated and they threw out a hundred signatures that he had collected just to be safe,” said Lowry.”

La Marque residents might want to review Lowry’s past. I’ve listed 20 reasons that should concern everyone including the Domestic Violence Protective Order that was placed on him. Let me add a few more:

• Lowry filed a “Assumed Name Record Certificate of Ownership for Unincorporated Business or Profession”, in other words, a DBA (Doing Business As) for two individuals without their consent. This is against the law.
• Lowry has continued making sexually suggestive comments towards city employees including giving a female employee a cake with “Recall these balls”, referring to a female city employee as a “snatch’, and referring to a female city council member describing his small ball sack.
• Lowry has been accused of filing a false “terrorist threat” complaint against a citizen of La Marque resulting in a swat action.
• Lowry has posted veiled threats towards members of the public
• Lowry submitted a fake email from a law enforcement organizations to retaliate against the City Manager. There is an ongoing investigation and the organization has disavowed being involved.
• He still owes back taxes for 2024 although has paid his delinquent taxes for 2021, 2022, and 2023.
• Lowry harassed members of the community at a restaurant (Video)

Mayor Bell has filed a response to the fake allegations of the recall petition. If by chance he can get the signatures I could see legal action to invalidate the petition due to false information presented to the voters. We shall see….

As reported earlier Civil Case #202107817 TOMCZAK, MARTIN vs. SIX BROTHERS CONCRETE PUMPING LLC filed in Harris County was “Dismissed for Want of Prosecution. From what I read the plaintiff was unable to attend a hearing because of technical difficulties. A motion was filed and granted to reinstate the suit against Councilman Joseph Lowry the owner of Six Brothers Concrete.

The case concerns a non compete clause signed by Martin Tomczak. According to the court documents Martin claims Lowry threatened him and potential employers with lawsuits based upon this non compete document leaving Tomczak unemployed. One of the documents submitted to the court is a list of texts and correspondence from Lowry. You can read the entire 27 pages here. 

It will be interesting to attend the trial.

Whose leg do you have to hump to get charged with sexual harassment at the workplace?

If you had sent a cookie cake to an employee with “Recalls These Balls”, or referred to a female employee as a “snatch”, or wrote a poem directed at a member of City Council referring to your ball sack, you would have been fired. Immediately. And possibly charged with sexual harassment. Yet so far law enforcement on all levels have done nothing against La Marque City Councilman Joseph Lowry contributing to a hostile work environment.

WTF are they waiting for? Lowry has been warned by the city attorneys to refrain from using sexually suggestive language towards city employees, yet he did it again. Twice. Once using the slur in a response to his Lousy News Network post and again in a video. (Comment is at 34:24). Yet nothing is happening and there is no main stream media attention to his actions.

This is gross behavior. It is illegal behavior. It’s beneath a human being. It needs to be addressed. He needs to be removed from Council. This just can’t go on any longer. 2026 needs to be the end of the line for Lowry.

Do something.

La Marque’s Chicken Little, Councilman Joseph Lowry, filed a recall petition against Mayor Keith Bell. The petition was chock full of lies, misinformation, and baseless allegations. You would think an “undercover investigative journalist” would do his homework before submitting a formal document like a recall petition. Once approved Lowry has 30 days to get over 800 signatures. Mayor Bell has filed a challenge to the recall. I’ll let you read his response below:

OFFICIAL WRITTEN RESPONSE TO RECALL AFFIDAVIT Mayor Keith Bell – City of La Marque, Texas Pursuant to the City of La Marque Charter, I submit this response to the affidavit seeking my removal from office. The allegations contained in the affidavit are false, unsupported by evidence, and largely repetitive of claims that have been raised and rejected previously. I categorically deny each allegation and provide the following factual corrections for the record. This response is submitted to ensure accuracy, protect the integrity of the City’s governance process, and allow reviewing authorities and residents to rely on verifiable facts rather than speculation or misinformation. —

1. Allegation: I Do Not Reside in the City of La Marque This allegation is demonstrably false. I am a resident of the City of La Marque and have lived in La Marque for more than thirty (30) years. Documentation establishing my residency includes, but is not limited to: A recorded deed showing ownership of my home located in La Marque A valid Texas Driver’s License listing my La Marque address (included by the affiant in his own submission) Galveston County Appraisal District records listing my La Marque residence A voter registration card listing my La Marque address A voting history reflecting consistent participation as a La Marque voter These documents conclusively establish my residency and eligibility to serve as Mayor under the City Charter and Texas law. —

2. Allegation: Acceptance of Bribes or Corruption This allegation is false and unsupported. I have never accepted a bribe, engaged in corruption, or violated my oath of office during my twenty-two (22) years of public service to the City of La Marque. I have never been: Investigated Charged Indicted Tried Convicted Found liable Or administratively sanctioned for any act of corruption or misconduct. No evidence, findings, judicial rulings, or investigative determinations have ever substantiated this allegation. The affidavit provides no proof because none exists. —

3. Allegation: Lack of Fitness for Duty This allegation is false and without foundation. I have served the City of La Marque continuously for twenty-two (22) years as a Councilmember, Mayor Pro Tem, and Mayor. At no point during this period has my fitness for duty been questioned by voters, medical professionals, courts, or governing authorities. The affiant is not a licensed physician, mental health professional, or qualified evaluator and has no authority or basis to make such a determination. This allegation did not arise until the affiant’s arrival in La Marque politics and is inconsistent with my long record of service. —

4. Allegation: Failure to Maintain Order in Council Meetings This allegation misrepresents the facts. Council meetings are conducted pursuant to adopted rules of procedure. Any disorder that has occurred has resulted from the affiant’s repeated refusal to recognize the presiding officer and comply with established meeting protocols. No other Councilmember has engaged in similar conduct, and this issue did not exist prior to the affiant’s participation in City governance. Enforcement of decorum rules is not a failure of leadership; it is an exercise of leadership in maintaining orderly government proceedings. —

5. Allegation: Improper Hiring of City Manager JB Pritchett This allegation is false and misleading. The City Council voted to hire Mr. JB Pritchett following a lawful selection process. The City Charter requires the City Manager to possess municipal government experience. Mr. Pritchett was the only finalist who met this charter-mandated qualification. As such, he was the only legally eligible candidate under the City Charter. The Council’s action complied fully with charter requirements and applicable law. Council considered all information we had on Mr. Pritchett that we had at the time, including his officially submitted resume and a cleared background check of Mr. Pritchett by a nationally recognized company. —

6. Allegation: Raising Taxes for 22 Years This allegation is false. My voting record demonstrates that I have not voted to raise the City tax rate during my twenty-two (22) years of service. This information is a matter of public record and can be independently verified by any resident reviewing Council voting history. —

7. Pattern of Repeated False Allegations The allegations contained in this affidavit are not new. The affiant has made substantially similar claims since 2021. These claims have repeatedly failed to produce any evidence or result in any legal or electoral relief. This is the second attempt to remove me from office. The prior recall effort failed in 2022. Since that time, I have been: Elected Mayor in 2021 with approximately 85% of the vote Re-elected Mayor in 2024 with approximately 64% of the vote These election outcomes reflect the confidence of La Marque voters in my leadership and service. —

Closing Statement I respectfully request that the City Secretary, City Attorney, and any reviewing authority rely on the factual record, verified documentation, and applicable provisions of the City Charter and Texas law when evaluating this affidavit. I will continue to focus on the lawful, transparent, and professional administration of City business and on improving the quality of life for residents of the City of La Marque. Respectfully submitted, Keith Bell Mayor, City of La Marque, Texas

What the living fuck is wrong with La Marque’s Chicken Little, City Councilman Joseph Lowry?

As reported yesterday Lowry created a hostile work environment within the city of La Marque by sending a sexually suggestive cookie cake to a city employee. The message “Recall These Balls” was in reference to a recall petition filed against him. Later in the day he did it again this time targeting a contract employee, specifically the Interim City Manager Barbara Holley using a vulgar word. Even before making these two sexually suggestive comments Lowry posted a vulgar poem targeting Councilmember Yancy. You can see all three below.

But he couldn’t stop. Later in the day Lowry posted a veiled threat targeting specific individuals including elected officials and citizens of the City. Those on the list has been encouraged to contact law enforcement and demand action.

Throughout the day Lowry posted videos acting like he was the victim in all of the commotion he has started including one of him submitting a recall petition chock full of misinformation that was eventually heavily redacted. This cause him to run to the police whining like a little bitch to file a complaint.

Galveston law enforcement can no longer sit back and do nothing. Sexual harassment can create a hostile work environment resulting in lawsuits against the city and county. Threats can result in lawsuits as well as criminal charges. These need to stop.

Immediately.

OMG! Something is happening in La Marque Texas concerning the Republican Councilman nut job Joseph Lowry.

Lowry just released a video of himself, once again, making all kinds of baseless allegations directed at the Interim City Manager Barbara Holley. (Do yourself a favor and watch it at The Mark Facebook page!) The Chicken Little of La Marque made baseless claims of corruption, shadow governments, political warfare, bribery, drug use, and more and it is getting old. Yesterday he was denied a meeting with the District Attorney for the second time. They probably are tired of his baseless claims also. His video is almost funny. Boo-hoo-hoo.

On top of that Lowry posted a long winded complaint about Ms Holley claiming she is using her official position to research his past and correspondence with the police chief and attorney. This video mentions a “hostile work environment” and an individual was put on leave for a month, which might mean that individuals filed suit against Lowry or the City of La Marque. I am speculating that it has something to do with his “Recall These Balls” cookie cake his wife presented to an employee after a recall was filed against him. According to BZ Watchdog who has grabbed onto the leg of Lowry, the incident, if true, is ripe for legal action:

So something might have happened today. I am sure the Galveston Daily News will report it.
