Very Rude Winner
Back in 2023, former H-Town Mayor Sylvester Turner told KPRC Channel 2 News Investigative-Consumer Reporter Amy Davis that she was “very rude” and went on to tell her, “I don’t like rude people.” Davis was in the middle of her “DRAINED” series investigation of the City of H-Town’s water billing and water meters mess. Davis…
Read MoreSnow Day
I must give a major thumbs up to the local coverage of the snow and weather provided by KPRC Channel 2 News yesterday. They were just about non-stop throughout the day. Reporters were stationed across the region including Beaumont, Baytown, Sugar Land, and Eleanor Tinsley and Hermann Parks. They reported on road closures, snowman building,…

This sad news to report: Cecile Richards, the former president of Planned Parenthood and feminist activist, died Monday of an aggressive brain cancer, her family confirmed in a statement. She was 67. Richards, the daughter of the former Democratic Texas governor, was one of the nation’s most prominent advocates for abortion rights. Here is the…
Read MoreWill Not Attend
Donald Trump did not attend President Joe Biden’s inauguration. Trump broke the tradition of a peaceful transition. MAGA didn’t call out Trump for skipping Biden’s swearing-in. I really don’t want to hear about MAGA calling out Democrats for saying they will not attend next Monday’s ceremony. Monday is also MLK Jr. Day and a national…

My State Representative and good friend, State Rep. Christina Morales, District 145, was one of the nine Texas House Democrats who vote present-not-voting in the race for Texas House Speaker. I don’t have a problem with how she voted. I think most Democratic Party Primary voters in HD 145 don’t have a problem with how…

New Texas House Speaker Dustin Burrows got elected yesterday and the majority of his votes came from Texas House Democrats. Here is from the Trib: Burrows won the speaker’s race after two rounds of voting, edging out Cook by a vote of 85-55. During the first round, Rep. Ana-María Rodríguez-Ramos, a Richardson Democrat, received 23 votes…
Read MoreHorse of a Different Color
Folks know that one of my favorite flicks is “The Wizard of Oz.” When Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion get to Emerald City, the carriage driver who greets them makes reference to the “horse of a different color.” When it comes to who runs the City of H-Town as the H-Town Mayor, Mayor…

This is a first for sure. Commentary has been closely following Texas legislative sessions since 1973, and this is the first one where we really don’t know who the Texas House Speaker will be the day before the session starts. Stay tuned. _____ We are a year and a half into the takeover of HISD…
Read MoreHoda’s Last Day
Today is Hoda Kotb’s last day on “Today.” She had a great run. Kermit the Frog made an appearance this morning and serenaded her with “Rainbow Connection.” Cool. The featured photo is all the “Today” anchors, minus Shenelle. Commentary has been watching “Today” for decades. It is what I do every morning. It is where…
