Parrish is behind all of Lubbock Co. pay scandal | Talarico has favorite Texas drag queen – Pratt on Texas 9/15/2026

The news of Texas covered today includes:

Our Lone Star story of the day: The answer to how the Lubbock County phantom commissioner pay scandal came about is quite simple and it wears a bow tie everyday. The Bowtie Bully’s arrogance and political treachery that started, and has continued, all the mess is rooted in his disregard of taxpayer interests. All of this comes from his desire for revenge on Jason Corley for repeatedly being effective at stopping property tax hikes.

Bowtie Bully Parrish’s tepid defense over this is that the legal matter is not over. So what?! Is he endorsing the idea that his handpicked accomplice, Mark Meurer, should be paid $70,000 while not serving as a commissioner, even if because of a temporary court order?
