Rigged: How the Lottery is playing Texans

Instead, it has become a machine for corruption, exploitation, and even international fraud. Rigged: How the Lottery is Playing Texans uncovers the dark side of the Texas Lottery.

NEW: @TerriLeoWilson has appealed a trial court’s refusal to dismiss a defamation lawsuit brought by the Barbers Hill ISD Education Foundation.

We are still more interesting storytellers than the AIs because we have lives. It's our edge. Live yours.

Time bound "calling" counsel from Paul to a congregation versus a creation wide command from God. Comparing things is hard.

That "be fruitful and multiply" bit is a stick in the spokes for J Low T on multiple fronts.

James Talarico on abortion: “I trust Texas women to make decisions about their own bodies, to shape their own destinies. I don’t believe that’s a place for government. That’s a belief I hold not despite my faith, but because of my faith. Jesus never talks about abortion. The Bible is silent on abortion”

So what kinda stick in your spokes is Paul's endorsement of celibacy unless you just can't hack it, in which case you should get married just to have occasional prophylactic sex to tamp down the urges & shouldn't have any more kids because Jesus is coming back to soon for that?

Candidate for Texas Attorney General Calls to Completely ABOLISH The H-1B Program.

Mayes Middleton: "You got to follow the law and more than that, we need to abolish the H-1B program and put Texas workers, put American workers first."

"I heard it again and again, where these spots are being filled by foreign workers."

"This is simple. This is common sense. This is putting our country first."

Yet another example of Kicking the Circle.

When citizens raise concerns, the people in power crack back.

A woman in Texas was arrested after she made a Facebook post sounding the alarm about the water quality in her town.

The water in Trinidad, Texas, sometimes runs brown, but when Jennifer Combs posted about it, the cops came and took her to jail.

UPDATE: The second indictment filed against former Texas Lottery Executive Director Gary Grief no longer appears in Travis County district clerk records.

@TexasScorecard reported on the indictment last week. The clerk’s office said today it could not locate the case and could not explain why.

This is one of the many reasons why we need uniform elections. We must move these critical votes to November.

TEXAS RAILROAD COMMISSIONER: Why is a Chinese/Las Vegas casino operator pumping hundreds of thousands into the campaign of the Democrat mega donor running against Bo French in the GOP primary runoff?

[Texas Scorecard @TexasScorecard]

Dallas ISD voters just approved a record‑shattering $6.2 billion bond—the largest school bond in Texas history—but only about 8% of registered voters showed up, meaning roughly 48,000 people just put more than a million county residents on the hook for $6.2 billion in debt.
