I got a mailer yesterday from Texas State Senate District 15 Democratic candidate Molly Cook letting me know she got an abortion 10 years ago. Got it. See the featured photo. I have been doing political campaigns longer than anyone in these parts and I have to say that is the first time a candidate…

It is National High Five Day. If you have followed the Astros closely the last four or five years, you have probably heard that former Astros Manager Dusty Baker was involved in the first high five ever. It turns out there is an Astros angle to this. See this from ESPN.com: The conventional wisdom had…

Grayson County, Texas is on the Oklahoma and Texas border. It is also 70% white. See this from the Trib: Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick has asked the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality, the state’s environmental agency, to halt approving permits for concrete production plants in Texas until the 2025 legislative session. Patrick’s letter to TCEQ Chair Jon…

Fox 26’s “What’s Your Point” crew this past Sunday morning discussed the proposed Harris County Uplift Harris program. You know, the program that provides $500 per month for 18 months to 1,900 low-income families. I am guessing most of these families are renters. The “What’s Your Point” crew pooh poohed the program. Let’s see. The…

Oops! Commentary did a doubletake yesterday morning when I was reading my Sunday Chron. See the featured photo just under the fold of the City/State Section. Come on! Whitemire? There is another story on the following page on H-Town Mayor John Whitmire and they got Whitmire right.  Very sloppy if you ask Commentary. Very sloppy.…

Commentary has attended a few Art Car Parades. It is one of H-Town’s coolest events.  It will roll around again tomorrow. See this from the Chron: After nearly a quarter-century navigating an art car through the parade route, Brock Wagner will yield the wheel. Wagner and the Saint Arnold Brewing Co. he co-founded have rolled cars in…

Commentary is guessing the Chron got the photo it wanted of Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo, a pi__ed off Judge Lina Hidalgo. See the featured photo. Judge Hidalgo held a press conference yesterday to call out crooked GOP AG Ken Paxton for trying to derail the Uplift Harris program that is giving $500 a month…

This is from the “Today” website. They also had a story on it this morning: People magazine is celebrating a major milestone. On April 10, People Editor in Chief Wendy Naugle revealed exclusively on TODAY the magazine’s 50th anniversary issue, which includes on its cover Hollywood legends like Oprah Winfrey, Jennifer Aniston and Michael J. Fox.…

Personally, for Commentary, the eclipse yesterday was a dud. See the featured photo. Thick clouds allowed me to only catch brief glimpses of the eclipse. Like seconds at a time. What a bummer. I had to watch NBC’s live coverage to see folks get excited like Lester Holt, Al Roker, and Kate Snow experience the…

There was another great job report this past Friday. The GOP talking heads on Fox News are flabbergasted. They don’t know how to respond to the strong economy under President Joe Biden. Maybe they ought to take a page from Gov. Greg Abbott’s political playbook.  Abbott says it is the Texas economy that is picking…
