Sick of all the election ads? Here’s something useful I’ve noticed.
The ads against Talarico are just him, on camera, in his own words.
The ads against Paxton are accusations from his opponents, charges he's already beaten.
One side quotes. The other side accuses.
Of course, that was never a question here in Texas.
BIG NEWS:
Per the New York Times, canvassers in San Antonio and El Paso keep hearing the same thing from Latino men.
They're sticking with Trump.
And they're passing on James Talarico.
He's been talking up border security and the economy, and they aren't buying it.
These voters know who actually secured the border. 🇺🇸
Ken Paxton fights for Texas.
Show up Tuesday and VOTE. 🗳️
Are Texas Latinos turning RED for good?

🚨 BREAKING: A Biden federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to SCRUB its "$5,000 to Americans" video from every government website and social account, just days before the midterms — so Americans are BLASTING IT EVERYWHERE
Judge Jennifer Rochon of SDNY sided with liberals, ruling the ad was likely "propaganda" funded by taxpayers
She also ordered two more ads pulled: "Every Democrat Voted Against No Tax on Tips" and "Cost of Socialism." 🤯
DIRECT INTERFERENCE BY A JUDGE

Well past time!
It is well past time to END the "motor voter" laws that have supercharged illegal voter registration and require actual proof of citizenship.
We have made it too easy for aliens to register and vote.

🚨 DHS just confirmed 250,000 non-citizens registered to vote in only four states: California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Nevada.
Secretary Mullin: “Mind you, we have 46 other states.”
Proactive states working with the SAVE program already found another 28,000 non-citizens plus 400,000 deceased people still on the rolls. And activist judges are fighting the program that found them. 🗳️
These aren’t rumors. This is the Department of Homeland Security saying non-citizens are on voter rolls right now.
Citizens don’t have to wait for Washington.
Request the voter roll data, the citizenship verification records, and the maintenance logs in your own county. Compare them. Demand the documents. 🔍
Clean rolls start locally.
Get trained to request and review them:

Democrat James Talarico attacked a Texas mom for warning parents that he wants to punish them criminally if they refuse to allow their kids to be transgender.
His voting record shows he wants moms and dads to be found guilty of child abuse if they refuse to “affirm” their child's “preferred gender identity”.
Parents in Texas need to hear this.
I almost cried reading this! But I almost cry reading many Bar B Que stories. I am a sucker for a happy ending.
For fifty eight years, my boss in Tokyo believed that beef should be sliced as thin as paper.
In Japan, we cook thin meat for four seconds in boiling broth. That is our way.
Then last month, the YouTube algorithm showed Director Sato a video of a man in Texas smoking a brisket.
It changed his life.
On Monday morning, he called me to his desk. His eyes were bloodshot.
"Have you seen this?" he whispered, turning his monitor toward me. "The American pitmaster does not sleep for sixteen hours. He sits by the fire in the dark. He guards the meat like a castle."
I said, "Sir, it is just a barbecue."
He slammed his hand on the desk.
"This is not cooking," he said. "This is a vigil."
Last Saturday was our annual company picnic by the river in Kanagawa. Normally, we grill thin meat and yakisoba for two hours and go home at 2:00 PM.
I arrived at 9:30 AM to help set up.
Director Sato was already there.
I want to be accurate here: he had been sitting in a folding chair since 10:00 PM on Friday night. He was wearing a towel around his head and staring at a massive black barrel smoker he had imported from Oklahoma.
Inside I said: THIS MAN HAS ABANDONED CORPORATE LIFE FOR THE SMOKE.
When we tried to help him, he held up a pair of metal tongs and clicked them twice.
"Step back," he said calmly. "The stall has begun. Nobody opens the lid."
Twelve Japanese accountants stood in complete silence around a barrel for four more hours. Nobody dared to eat a single noodle until he gave the signal.
At 1:45 PM, he sliced the meat. It fell apart on the cutting board.
My boss looked at the pink smoke ring, nodded once, and wiped a single tear from his cheek.
He has already submitted an official budget request for a trailer smoker for next fiscal year.

Surrender Prayer
God, my Father, I thank You for all that You are and all that You do for me through Your son Jesus Christ. I praise You for my life, for Your mercy, and for Your Eucharist. In Jesus’ name, Father, I place myself entirely in Your Heart. I surrender to You my whole self, my heart, my mind, my memory, my imagination, my will, my emotions, my passions, my body, my desire for human approval, my weaknesses, my desires, my sins.
I surrender every person in my life to You: my home,my children, my loved ones, I surrender every situation in my life to You. I surrender every relationship I am in to You. I surrender every concern I have to You. I surrender every fear I have to You. I surrender every doubt I have to You. I surrender all confusion I have to You. I surrender all sadness I am experiencing in my heart to You. I surrender all my wounds to you. I surrender all anxiety and worry I have to You. I surrender all that deceives me in my heart to You. I trust You to care for me and others in a perfectly loving way.
As I have emptied myself and surrendered everything to You, I ask You now, Father, to fill me with Your Holy Spirit and all the gifts and fruits of Your Spirit.
Holy Spirit You are the source of love, hope, joy, peace, patience, goodness, gentleness, tenderness, faithfulness, humility, and self-control. Purify my desires.
Help me to open my heart to You. Help me to become perfectly receptive as a pure child. Help me to believe in Your love for me. Help me to hope in Your love. Help me to receive from the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus all grace and virtues necessary for me to become the person you created me to be. I ask this in the Name of Jesus Christ, Your son, God Almighty Father.
O Most Holy Immaculate Virgin Mary. I entrust this prayer to your Heart, and ask you to press it to your wounded heart and intercede for me to your Son Jesus. Please help me to be as you are, a perfect disciple, an obedient servant, a true child of God. Amen.

I just sent a legislative records request to Rep. @GinaHinojosa seeking communications between her office and Judge Catherine Mauzy—the same judge who donated $500 to her gubernatorial campaign and then, four months later, ruled in her favor.
Texans have a right to know whether a judge coordinated with a legislator to benefit the legislator’s political aspirations.
Let’s see what the records show. Transparency isn’t optional.
Paper ballots now and forever, elections held on one day. Let’s get this done. @Lorionafarm

.@POTUS: We also made the largest-ever investment in SCHOOL CHOICE.
Under Republican leadership, Mississippi has gone from having the worst ranked schools in the nation to among the BEST ranked schools in the nation!
