The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: A fine from the so-called Texas Ethics Commission of Harris County's leftist Judge Lina Hidalgo demonstrates well how political and UNethical is the body that parades around with ethics in its name. All it takes is a comparison of Hidalgo's fine, for doing something that is also a Class A misdemeanor in the state's Penal Code, to that handed down to a local pastor who ran for office in Abilene. Unethical, capricious, and disgusting. The TEC should be done away with in the Sunset process next year and reformed with a proper name such as the Office of Campaign Finance Rules.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Other problems for Lina Hidalgo and friends in Harris Co: Lawsuit Alleges Harris County Commissioner Adrian Garcia Illegally Holding Two Public Offices.U.S. Supreme Court puts a fundamental aspect of American Exceptionalism in jeopardy by dismissing Big Tech free speech case on standing.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: Texas House passes two border security bill with one amended by a Democrat which will require it to go back to the Senate. The take away from arguments by Democrats is that they have little concern over the issue of mass illegal immigration and consider the bad people to be those who want to effectively address the issue. And why has no one pointed out that even citizens can, and do, cross the border illegally and thus should be subject to state arrest for so doing.

Why the 2022 Harris County Judge Race will Be Critical for Education Programs in Harris County by Diana Martinez To protect public education, advocates must keep a close eye on local races such as the one for Harris County Judge. In Texas and across the country, education is under attack. Far-right misinformation propagandists are stirring up nonexistent issues to enrage unwitting parents to push bans on books and attacks on teachers. Schools are under constant threat of gun violence thanks to inaction by the governor and outlandish conspiracy policy pushed by Ted Cruz and the NRA. Even a cursory glance at the falsehoods and extremist positions peddled in the wake of Uvalde display the dangers of Greg Abbott's perspective on schools. Rightwing demagogues in league with outwardly white supremacist groups are aggresively protesting public LGBTQ events, a few short months after Indicted Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton decided to leverage the power of his office to attack trans kids through a questionable legal maneuver. ... Voters in Harris County have a choice this November to either embolden MAGA extremists who oppose public education programs that have had a significant positive impact in our community, or support the people who made those programs come to life. Parents, students, and teachers relying on critical services such as literacy programs, special needs education, and early childhood education from the Harris County Department of Education need our support to keep those services going. In particular, we need a County Judge like Lina Hidalgo, who will stand up for our local community against the whims of Greg Abbott, Dan Patrick, and their super donors. By backing pro-ed candidates like Hidalgo and Duhon, we can give every kid the chance to thrive. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/support
Indivisible Houston Daniel Cohen discusses the feud between Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo and District Attorney Kim Ogg objectively. I have been away from Houston for nine months. I was sure that by the time I got back, District Attorney Kim Ogg would have stopped playing political games and using the state's power to harm another Democrat who has brought transparency to a Commissioner's Court not there previously. But then I read the Texas Monthly article titled “Democrats Took Control of Texas's Largest County. Then Party Leaders Went to War With Each Other,” which gave me pause. It seems the relationship between the two did not start well as Ogg reportedly attempted to coerce Hidalgo into appointing a particular executive assistant. Hidalgo, panting from exertion, answered the call. District Attorney Kim Ogg, a fellow Democrat who, like Hidalgo, had come to power as the Harris County electorate turned blue, greeted her on the line. Ogg, who declined a request for an interview, had rung her to continue to press the incoming county judge to make a particular political appointment to an executive assistant position, Hidalgo said in an interview with Texas Monthly. Hidalgo said she ended the call quickly and she wasn't interested. “It's pretty obvious when someone is trying to handle you,” Hidalgo told me. “I wanted to make these decisions based on my own judgment.” Judge Hidalgo also denied Ogg the ridiculous number of DA she requested. Hidalgo, a Progressive, works the criminal justice system intelligently and efficiently instead of through the insanity of the status quo. Daniel Cohen who is well schooled in Harris County politics had much to say. Please listen to the entire interview. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/politicsdoneright/support

On Friday's show: For the first time in two years, the Texas Department of State Health Services says fewer than a thousand patients with COVID-19 are being treated in Texas hospitals. Even as increasing percentages of COVID cases are coming from the new BA.2 omicron subvariant, hospitalizations remain down and flat. That, of course, is due to widely available vaccines and treatments, which we did not have in April of 2020.

Today on KPFT 90.1 FM: These women, Rep. Jasmine Crockett, Judge Lina Hidalgo, Sen. Claire McCaskill, Rebecca Azor, make it clear we are in good hands when real leaders lead. Texas State Representative Jasmine Crockett, along with her Democratic Caucus, left Texas to block Republican's voter suppression bill S.B 1 & H.B. 3. I have been watching freshman state representative Jasmine Crockett for some time. Her interviews are always fact-based and on point. This legislator knows the law and is never afraid to use it. The head of Harris County's governing body, Judge Lina Hidalgo, visited the Kingwood Area Democrats, Humble Area Democrats, and other active Area Democratic groups for our belated 4th of July celebration. Judge Lina Hidalgo raced down from her commitments at the Texas Legislature in Austin to be with this amalgamation of groups. Many of our incumbent Democratic judges roamed the 150+ attendees for ballot signatures. Grassroots in action is a beautiful thing. Fmr. Sen. Claire McCaskill made it clear. She slammed GOP & Evangelical Ministers who would do well to reread the New Testament. She appropriately castigated the Evangelical Leaders. McCaskill reiterated that the reason their ICUs are at the highest levels is because of the failure of Republicans and Evangelical Ministers. Rebecca Azor, Like It Or Not Host at The Benjamin Dixon Show & Independent Journalist, discusses why alternative media is needed. Rebecca Azor visited Politics Done Right to discuss her passion for independent political journalism where she leverages her voice to bring political discourse in a manner that brings in the masses.

Fox News Steve Doocy continues to make a fool of himself as Jen Psaki uses the opportunity to enlighten his audience. Here she schools him on the Texas State Representatives leaving Texas to save Democracy. One never tires of watching the snotty-nosed Peter Doocy make a fool of himself. But I think it is important to know covering him serves a purpose. Seth David Radwell discusses that which ails America as he explains several topics in his book American Schism: How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing our Nation.

Judge Lina Hidalgo raced down from her commitments at the Texas Legislature in Austin to be with this amalgamation of groups. Many of our incumbent Democratic judges roamed the 150+ attendees for ballot signatures. Grassroots in action is a beautiful thing. Just before the fireworks and the speeches from our incumbents and other politicians running in 2022 and beyond, Lina Hidalgo hit the deck on a high note. She first acknowledged the new Harris County Democratic Party Chair, Odus Evbagharu. Judge Hidalgo then gave a fighting speech on battling for our Democracy. She pointed out the county's successes, increasing the vote by a large percentage not only for Democrats but for all Harris County voters. The Judge pointed out that the Republicans in Austin saw Harris County's success as a threat. Their goal is to make all of the successful voting procedures Harris County instituted illegal. Hidalgo made it clear that the Republicans do not know what they will be up against in 2022. Harris County Democrats like 2018 and 2020 will leave no stone unturned for a win for the residents of our county.--- If you like what we do please do the following!

Are there more Houstonians seeking out mental health services -- and for what? We talk with a representative of Mental Health America of Greater Houston. And we visit Art Museum TX, a new venue in Sugar Land whose mission is to showcase work by Texas artists and specifically those from Fort Bend County.
Judge Lina Hidalgo, county executive for Harris County, Texas, talks about changing the system from within and about budgeting through a values lens. Including the city of Houston, Harris County is the third most populous in the country, larger than some states. As the county's chief executive, Lina took early public health measures to stop the spread of COVID-19 and has made great strides to challenge voter suppression in Texas.
