What A Christian Nation Really Means In Texas Politics

A politician preaches a sermon titled “God is not a Christian,” then turns that slogan into a checklist of government programs. That kind of move is becoming common in Texas politics, so we slow it down and examine what’s being claimed, what Scripture actually teaches, and why “Christian nation” arguments often get flattened into whatever policy a candidate already prefers.From there, we pivot to Texas governance where the details matter. We break down the University of Houston system’s sweeping core curriculum overhaul under Senate Bill 37, including what it means to cut the eligible course list nearly in half and why curriculum battles are really fights over incentives and institutional power. We also dig into Texas data privacy and the growing push to treat personal data as property, not a permission slip consumers have to request back from companies.In the second hour, Charles Blain joins for our weekly local recap, including an AI-driven look at HCAD exemptions, Harris County tax hike rumors, and why bad budgeting always seems to find new ways to hit homeowners. We close with big-picture pressure points: data centers, ERCOT load, national security arguments, the reality of a $40 trillion national debt, and a federal report alleging billing practices tied to puberty blockers for minors at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center.************************************************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!
