From Ken Paxton’s WPATH Lawsuit To Harris County Flood Control Chaos

A million dollars in cocaine gets seized at the border and the first feeling is relief. We get why, but we also ask the uncomfortable follow-up: if nearly 74 pounds is caught in two stops, what’s slipping through the cracks, and what does that poison do once it hits Texas streets?We start with Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton joining a multistate effort against WPATH, alleging deceptive practices around pediatric gender medicine and the way “standards of care” get marketed to parents. From there, we pull the thread on institutional credibility: what “trust the science” has meant in recent years, how risk gets minimized, and why ordinary people have to become far more informed consumers of medical claims.Then we go local with the stories that hit your wallet and your neighborhood. Harris County Flood Control faces leadership upheaval while Harvey mitigation money and project deadlines hang over the county, and we break down why that chaos matters in a region where flooding is not theoretical. We also cover Conroe ISD trustees rejecting a TASB governing seat, and Charles Blain from Urban Reform joins us for the weekly local recap covering alleged homestead exemption fraud, the World Cup tourism hype falling flat for restaurants, and new data showing more Harris County households renting instead of owning.We close with the Texas GOP’s 2027 legislative priorities and a blunt border reality check: drug seizures are a warning sign, not a victory lap.************************************************Listen every day to our strong conservative programs on Patriot Talk 920 AM.  Tune-in on your radio in Houston to KYST 920 AM or download our app by visiting 920app.com or search for "Patriot Talk 920" from your app store!
