Texas Faces New World Screwworm While Houston Debates A New Trash Fee

A flesh-eating livestock parasite just crossed from “far away” to “detected in Texas,” and that should change how we think about border security, agriculture, and basic competence. We walk through what the New World screwworm is, why ranchers and border counties are sounding alarms, and why the food supply and Texas economy do not get protected by press releases and social media arguments. If prevention is easier than eradication, then speed, coordination, and listening to the people closest to the threat are the whole game.From there, we pivot to school safety in the Houston area as Cy-Fair ISD runs a full-scale active threat exercise. I’m glad districts prepare for the worst day, but I’m not willing to pretend it’s normal that schools have to practice for violence. We talk about the deeper cultural problem behind school attacks, the formation of young men, and why responsibility, discipline, and moral clarity matter more than another round of blame and slogans.We also cover a troubling Houston cyberstalking case connected to “incel” ideology, then shift into practical Second Amendment realities with news that Arms Room Radio is joining the Patriot Talk 920 lineup. We dig into what responsible armed citizenship looks like, why training increases even in constitutional carry states, and one key legal takeaway after any self-defense incident: get a lawyer and stop talking.We close with two big Texas accountability stories: the TEA’s new Student Protection Resource Center and Houston’s proposed budget, including the debated $5 trash administrative fee and the public trust crisis it reveals.************************************************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!
