Why Texans, Not D.C., Should Decide The Senate Nominee
from The Lone Star Conservative · host Patriot Talk 920 AM
Texas politics is running hot, and we’re diving straight into the fire. A Truth Social post says the Senate primary “must stop now,” with a promise to endorse and push the other candidate to drop out. We respect strong endorsements, but we draw a hard line when influence tries to replace elections. This runoff belongs to Texans, not to D.C., and we explain why voter choice in May is the best way to build strength for November.We also spotlight a rare sweep: Don Huffines clears 50 percent in the Comptroller GOP primary. He lays out a concrete plan to watchdog spending—ending “use it or lose it” budgeting, auditing with consequences, and prosecuting fraud across state and local levels. If you’re tired of vague promises, this is about levers that move real money. The theme of consistent rules echoes in Spring Branch ISD, where a Ramadan display was removed under a neutrality policy. We break down what neutrality means in a public school, why it often gets applied selectively, and how to write simple rules that districts can actually enforce.Education is shifting fast. Cy-Fair ISD lost 3,200 students in a year as charters, homeschooling, and virtual options grow. We argue that competition can sharpen public schools—if leaders bet on outcomes over slogans with safer campuses, mastery in core subjects, and stronger CTE. And accountability doesn’t stop at the schoolhouse door: Houston Public Works faces allegations of P-card abuse and tool resales totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars. We outline the fix—warehouse checks before purchases, automated SKU flags, public spend dashboards, mandatory restitution, and lifetime bans from taxpayer-funded jobs if fraud is proven.Finally, justice moves with force: a life sentence for the shooter who nearly killed a Harris County deputy during a traffic stop. Communities need predictable consequences for violent crime to regain trust. If you care about fair elections, honest budgets, sane school policy, and public safety that actually protects the public, this one’s for you.************************************************Listen every day to our strong conservative programs on Patriot Talk 920 AM.
