Ken Cuccinelli on Abbott’s border claims, more | Shame on Abilene’s new mayor | NASA gone woke – Pratt on Texas 5/16/2023

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: Former Trump Administration official and Virginia Attorney General, Ken Cuccinelli, joins us to talk about the scam that is Ranked Choice Voting. There is a bill in the Texas legislature to ban the use of such in Texas, SB 921, which passed the Senate but appears to be sitting with no action in the House Elections Committee.

Cuccinelli also explained why he has called out Governor Abbott for “B.S.” repeatedly over Abbott’s misleading claims about what he was doing on the Mexico border with Operation Lone Star.

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.

Abilene’s new mayor, Weldon Hurt, shamefully says churches should be punished for being involved in politics. Is he just ignorant or fully Leftist un-American? His comments, if presented in the correct context, are frighteningly ignorant.
