Commentary starts off the early morning watching the Channel 2 news with Owen Conflenti, Lisa Hernandez and the rest of the crew which includes weather, investigative and traffic reports. Overnight shootings usually get the most coverage, but they cover informative stories from local government. The investigative stories are interesting and useful. Then it is the…

That was certainly the most compelling, riveting, and explosive two hours of TV I have seen in a while. Cassidy Hutchinson is one courageous American. She can’t be discredited. She interned for GOP Whip Steve Scalise and Sen. Cancun Cruz, err, before he went to Cancun. She was on the phone with Minority Leader Kevin…

Here is your latest local GOP clown. It is the Urban Reform fella on “What’s Your Point.” Yesterday, he was asked about the January 6 Committee. He said the committee was overplaying their hand. Huh?  A methodical and uninterrupted presentation of the facts by mostly folks who were close to Donald Trump or who are…

My first reaction yesterday to the Supreme Court ruling on the New York gun case was welcome to Texas, America.  There is nothing good going to come from this. This morning the Supreme Court overturned Roe, 5 to 4. There is nothing good going to come from this either. I prepared the rest of today’s…

He called it an “abject failure.” He also said they were chickens for…

“They all failed us,” said the uncle of one of the Uvalde kids who was murdered four weeks ago today. Let me add. State and local law enforcement failed the community of Uvalde. Texas Monthly has an article that went online recently about local and state officials holding back info from the families and public…

Today we observe Juneteenth. It is a federal holiday. No mail delivery and post offices are closed.  My bank is closed. According to the City of Houston and Harris County websites, today is a holiday for city and county employees. The Chron said today that state offices are closed. The Texas Comptroller website says yesterday…

The January 6 Committee is telling us through knowledgeable, veteran conservative Republicans, that Donald Trump tried to subvert Democracy.  It is not AOC, Sen. Bernie Sanders or the Squad that are providing the facts.  Republicans are telling us under oath what happened. To those GOP members of Congress who still believe in Trump and believe…
