@evanasmith YES! True

Houston Astros hire former player Brad Ausmus as manager (story by @matthewkawahara) https://t.co/6inwBflfZg via @houstonchron

Blocked. By a 211 to 204 vote, the House will send the impeachment legislation to committee preventing a vote on impeaching.

[Jeremy Wallace @JeremySWallace]

The U.S. House is voting right now on whether to proceed with impeachment of Pete Hegseth. First is a vote on whether to halt the vote and send the matter to the House Judicary Committee.

[Jeremy Wallace @JeremySWallace]

And it includes my campaign-sized coffee mug! Gonna need this to cover all the transition news and the coming Legislature session.

[Jeremy Wallace @JeremySWallace]

How do you make an episode that lives up to the monumental shift in Texas politics? Beg two pillars of Texas political reporting @gromerjeffers & @JohnnieMo to come on the Texas Take. This was so fun to record!

That is @jamestalarico getting to do the cold open on @nbcsnl. I’m just guessing they didn’t have a Ken Paxton backup plan

American soldiers have died, we’re spending $6 per gallon, fertilizer prices are crushing ag industry.

But Big Oil is making billions from Iran war prices. How about a 300% increase in quarterly profits for one of them. https://t.co/14FmuI75XH via @houstonchron

Women rule in Texas.

Seriously.

They now have the governors office, lead the Texas Senate and the Texas House. First time in history all 3 are women.

[Jeremy Wallace @JeremySWallace]

For the first time in Texas history a Black woman will lead the Texas House of Representatives.

State @RepSenfronia, D-Houston, says she has the votes to be the new speaker in January

She says she’ll work with Dems and Republicans for the good of Texas.

[Jeremy Wallace @JeremySWallace]

We don't always agree Matt, but on this, yes. The people who will buy boats, vacation in Europe and second homes off of the money Ken Paxton & friends sent them to win a race that he was INCAPABLE of winning did something pretty cynical here. There is one 🤡 in particular that will have a hard time living this down.

Daylight between Ted Cruz and Donald Trump after a Texas reckoning.

Ted Cruz slams Trump's tariffs and says Iran war needs to end https://t.co/bMQpW6HdzW via @houstonchron

[Jeremy Wallace @JeremySWallace]

Bud Adams or Brock Osweiler would have done better. Houstonians know what I’m saying.

[Jeremy Wallace @JeremySWallace]

I’m calling it.

Ken Paxton is the worst candidate Republicans have run statewide in Texas since WW2.

Yes I’m piling on. But damn, Ken Paxton won less than 33% of the vote in Harris County (Houston). Even freaking Barry Goldwater got 40% against native son Texan LBJ in ‘64.

@BriscoeCain Fact check: True

[Jeremy Wallace @JeremySWallace]

Zero loyalty.

Gov Greg Abbott held the special session to redraw districts that didn’t work.

Hosted his convention, praised Trump nonstop on the border and elsewhere.

And here’s Trump calling Abbott a RINO. No thanks for your service. Just drops him.

[Jeremy Wallace @JeremySWallace]

@KoltenParker And the attorney generals office might return a phone call?

[Jeremy Wallace @JeremySWallace]

@gayguycandleco If she didn't care about polls, she would have helped forced a vote on the Dreamer legislation in Congress. Trump would have been mad, but that would have done more for her in Hidalgo County than 1 million more visits from soon-to-be former Speaker Mike Johnson.

Jan. 3, 1989.

That was the last morning Democrats had Senators from TX, NC, SC, GA, and Mississippi all at the same time. But if Colom holds on in MS, it will happen again on Jan. 3, 2027.

Is this that New South you've been talking about @USAquarium?
