Former GOP state rep ignores lobby law he voted for | Shocking stats on illegal immigration – Pratt on Texas 1/27/2023

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: One of our RINO ex-state reps is thumbing his nose at a lobbying restriction law – a law he voted for! No matter the intricacies of any legal arguments, Chris Paddie’s actions show just how far we have fallen when it comes to ethical behavior. Bad actors have always been around but today many in politics don’t even try to hide their questionable positions or actions.

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.

Again, don’t be snowed by rather ignorant media reports because of now all of this is up in the air with no clear idea how much and in what form tax relief might come.

Oil and gas drilling rig count unchanged this week.

Border news includes this shocker: Analysis: ‘Mind-Blowing’ Illegal Immigration Under Biden Approaching 1% of Total U.S. Population. Even if not intentional by the Left (highly doubtful,) the remaking of the USA is underway.
