It is time to judge Arizona’s Ducey, Texas’ Abbott, and others by results not words – especially given the amount of tax money we are spending on the border in Texas.

 The news of Texas covered today includes: Our Lone Star story of the day: Despite the constant media and Democrat narrative that January 6th 2021 was a threat to democracy, and even Ted Cruz calling the event at the Capitol terrorism, the actual facts do not support such hyperbole. We’re going to end up with a generation of people who are not sure what December 7th, 1941 is all about but will think January 6th, 2021 was a great day of infamy in which our republic was seriously threatened. All of this is preposterous and especially so when one considers the shootings of 5 representatives on the House floor and multiple bombings of the Capitol which were actual events of violence for seditious purposes.
