The news of Texas covered today includes:
Our Lone Star story of the day: Three big court decisions affect Texas in different ways.
First, the Fifth Circuit has overruled a contempt charge and fine against Texas over its foster care system; more importantly the court has removed activist, biased Judge Janis Jack from the case! This is a huge win for sanity and proper judicial behavior as well as for Texas.
Second, the very unreliable Judge Xavier Rodriguez has ruled against more Texas election integrity rules found in SB1. Whether or not the 5th Circuit will put some of this on hold as it has previous rulings from this judge remains to be seen. Rules on voter assistance have existed way before GOP control mostly to protect people from being coerced to vote a certain way by a spouse, employer, or other party with power over them
Three, Texas’ investigatory law that has been on the books for over a century has been ruled unconstitutional. The ruling is correct in my opinion but complicates the Attorney General’s ability to investigate matters such as assisting illegal immigration.
Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.
Lubbock County Commissioner Jason Corley tells about finally passing his “game room” regulations this morning but not until the fake Republican county judge, Bowtie Bully Parrish, mucked it up with amendments. Note that it was the two Democrats who opposed it: Precinct 3’s Flores and Judge Curtis Parrish.
Our great friend, and former sometimes network board operator, Jody Smyers, a great photographer, joins us to talk about watching the historic launch, and catch of the booster, from SpaceX’s Starbase in South Texas yesterday.
