Mickey Mouse Politics

Let’s see. The Florida GOP governor and legislature is beating up on one of their top economic engines – tourism.  The dumbsh_t Texas GOP governor is beating up on one of our top economic engines – trade.  All to score points with their rabid whacko base. I have yet to figure out how any of…

San Jacinto Day

14 years from today, Texas will celebrate the San Jacinto Day Bi-Centennial.  Today we celebrate the 186th anniversary of San Jacinto Day.  Commentary has said before about growing up in the shadow of the San Jacinto Monument.

At The Yard

The Harris County Election Board met yesterday and are moving forward to find a new Election Administrator. A national search will begin. Let’s hope this is a transparent process and not some backdoor deal we got last year that blew up in folks faces. Find someone with experience and not someone’s political pal. Good luck.…

Folks have not figured out his endgame. Abbott’s game ended yesterday. For now. He became a national boob.  The business community opposed him. Groups and associations who…

Space City

Most folks in these parts don’t ask for Commentary’s take on politics.  Here is one take from me anyways. The indictments handed down yesterday to three of Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo’s top staffers is not going to help us Democrats with voters locally this November. We now have a Democratic District Attorney going after…

State Rep. Christina Morales Cookies

Commentary got his second COVID-19 booster shot yesterday – outdoors – at Montie Beach Park, a few blocks from my house. It was administered by the City of Houston Health Department. I have gotten all my COVID-19 vaccinations from the Health Department, but this time I had to fill out a bunch of paperwork that…
