Texas has a right and responsibility to protect its institutions from hostile foreign influence.

TPPF's new Defeating Islamist Radicalization initiative lays out a bold plan to do exactly that.

Progress in my legal fight against CAIR.

I declared CAIR a Foreign Terrorist Organization.

They sued to block it.

I demanded CAIR give us its donor list, donee list, and details for Nihad Awad’s travel to 9 countries hosting Islamic terror.

A federal court granted my request

The last time @chiproytx worked in the Texas Attorney General’s office, he was escorted out of the building. AG @KenPaxtonTX gave him a choice: be fired or resign. The reason was his continued insubordination to AG Paxton.

Ken Paxton was recently overheard in an audio clip saying, “I’m going to vote for @mayes_middleton” and that he “could not imagine [Chip Roy] stepping into that role.”

I’m casting my vote for Mayes Middleton, too.

This is a great development. The media does not usually connect the dots this way. The campaigns to support the bonds are all supported by the firms in line to get the money. It’s totally corrupt and I’m glad journalists are finally putting it together. 👇

During debate on the House floor this session, I quoted Genesis 1:27, which says that God created humanity male and female in His image. I shared that verse because I believe it reflects a foundational truth about creation and about the dignity of every person.

In response, another member suggested that Genesis should be read through examples like dawn and dusk, coral reefs, penguins, dolphins, and the platypus in order to argue that the passage leaves room for blurred categories.

But those comparisons miss the point of the text. Dolphins, penguins, and platypuses are not fish. Coral reefs are structures built by living organisms, not land itself. And dawn and dusk do not replace night. They occur just before and just after real night. The existence of transitions does not erase the realities they surround.

As a Christian, I believe there is an important difference between allowing Scripture to shape our worldview and reshaping Scripture to fit the worldview we already hold.

My purpose in quoting Genesis was simple. I believe the Bible affirms that humanity was created male and female, and that truth reflects the order of creation given by a loving God.

You can watch the exchange from the House floor and decide for yourself.

@granitewinger I really must step it up. You are beating me on the snark meter! 100% on this one Dave…complete hypocrisy.

[Dave Carney @granitewinger]

I guess being in congress for years and not doing anything about this federal issue makes you a freaking hypocrite. Must be nice to be a do-nothing federal employee and just sit back, post complaints and whine. Get a life and do something other than complain and blame others for your failings. If you can’t get things passed in your current job maybe it’s time for someone effective to have your job.

[Dave Carney @granitewinger]

Protip: dont let grifters go behind your collective backs and let them go to the principals directly its a recipe for disaster... systems in place to protect your guys.

[David Wilson @LittleGovIsGood]

@TomOliverson @TerriLeoWilson @TXGOPCaucus Thank you SOO much for helping my wife @RepTerriWilson . You are an awesome member and friend to both of us!

[Corey A. DeAngelis, school choice evangelist @DeAngelisCorey]

This guy is a director at the Barbers Hill Education Foundation.

That private foundation received $41 million from the district.

Now he's running against a school choice supporter and he was the only candidate to attend their forum?

Did they ask you to join, @TerriLeoWilson?

[Terri Wilson @RepTerriWilson]

@DeAngelisCorey @TerriLeoWilson I wasn’t contacted prior. The 1st X I was aware, was when I saw it posted on social media. I then asked the GOP chair, who’s supporting my opponent, if the date could be moved as I had a conflict, he said no, it is best for everyone. I asked who is everyone, since I wasn’t .

[Texas Scorecard @TexasScorecard]

The Texas Education Agency has launched an investigation into Barbers Hill ISD after concerning details emerged regarding ties between the school district and its education foundation.

[The Texan @TheTexanNews]

Texas House incumbent @TerriLeoWilson accused the Barbers Hill Education Foundation of using lawfare to restrict her free speech to the benefit of her primary opponent, @WatkinsforTX, who is a director at the foundation. https://t.co/5S8PU2AoKl

This BHEF thing really does raise eyebrows. Some run to be servants, others to be served. I’m for @TerriLeoWilson!

[Dr. Mary Bone @drbone4tx]

🚨BREAKING: New documents uncovered reveal a troubling land deal at Barbers Hill ISD (BHISD) that smells of insider trading and potential corruption. BHISD appears to have offered a "Proprietary Off-Market Acquisition" for land at 25-30% below market value—directly contradicting Texas Education Code 45.082, which prohibits school districts from selling real property for less than fair market value unless strict conditions are met.

The deal ties into Saturn Equities, where current Chambers County Judge candidate Ryan Dagely serves as a founding member, and Americus Holdings, where HD 23 candidate Nathan Watkins is Vice President. But it gets even more tangled: Chambers County Appraisal District (CAD) records show the two parcels were originally owned by Americus Holdings and sold to BHISD in 2021 through an intermediary named John Ballis.

Fast-forward to 2024: Those same properties were transferred per CAD records to Needlepoint Road MF LLC—a new entity created in August 2024 and managed by Andrew Schatte (Managing Partner of Americus Holdings) and Mark Brock (President of Americus). The transfer happened just three months later in November.

Is this government corruption prioritizing individual gain over the school district's mission to educate kids? Why the below-market deal? Who benefits from this web of connections?

Adding fuel: Public campaign finance records show Greg Poole (BHISD Superintendent), Ryan Dagely, and Andrew Schatte have donated at least $60,000 combined to Nathan Watkins' campaign. Coincidence? Or a coordinated effort to protect insider interests?

Texas taxpayers deserve answers. This isn't just about land—it's about trust in our public institutions. Demand an investigation! @KenPaxtonTX @GregAbbott_TX @GovHotWheels_TX @TexasScorecard

Barbers Hill Education Foundation scrambling to back down on frivolous lawsuit it filed against @TerriLeoWilson. The suit backfired by drawing attention to the Foundation's clubby relationship with the ISD's double-dipping supe Greg Poole.
