Texas GOP Convention Fight Over The Pro Life Platform

A political party can say it’s pro-life, but the real test is whether it’s willing to apply equal protection under the law to the unborn. With the Texas GOP convention days away, I walk through the brewing platform fight over replacing strong “abolish abortion” language with a funding-focused approach tied to the Thriving Texas Families program. I’m not ضد helping moms, pregnancy resource centers, adoption services, or maternity homes. I’m saying money is not justice, and a government grant cannot replace the duty of the law to protect innocent human life.Then we shift gears into something that hits families right where it hurts: Medicare penalties. Justin White from Senior Health Services joins me for Medicare Monday to explain who actually gets hit with Part B and Part D penalties, what “creditable coverage” really means, why employer coverage usually keeps you safe, and how one wrong assumption at 65 can turn into a lifelong monthly surcharge. If you’ve ever heard a scary story from a friend and wondered if it’s true, this is the clarity you’ve been missing.We also dig into the postponed Pride Houston 365 parade and the bigger question behind it: the difference between private choices and public endorsement on taxpayer-owned streets, plus why public decency standards matter. To close, I cover Kerrville’s unconstitutional anti-solicitation ordinance and the fight over attorney’s fees, and I address the Brazoria County deputy shooting case where public grief collides with demands for immediate charges, and where due process still has to mean something.************************************************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!
