The news of Texas covered today includes:
Our Lone Star story of the day: A Texas-sized embarrassment took place this week with some Texas National Guard troops being pulled from deployment for not meeting mission standards. Secretary of War Hegseth has lowered the gauntlet over fitness standards in the military but this is not a new issue. Back in the regular session of the Texas Legislature, a bill was pushed to help with a real fitness problem for Texas National and State Guard members but was opposed by the Texas Military Department – seems to me they now have egg on their faces.
Ammon Blair, a senior fellow at the Texas Public Policy Foundation, joins us to talk about the issue, what was in the bill, and why the brass opposed it.
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.

Much change has been made but the folks at the Alamo Trust are still woke leftists lying in wait to destroy Texas heritage. Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham goes after the woke bunch at the Trust after those folks posted an “indigenous peoples” day message.
