If an elections office uses your tax dollars to “remind people to vote,” should it be allowed to choose which racial or ethnic groups see the message. We walk through the breaking news out of Harris County as the Texas Attorney General files a lawsuit over alleged racially discriminatory voter outreach ads using Meta targeting tools, and we explain why even the appearance of government-run election engineering can poison trust in the whole system.
From there, we shift to Washington for a clear, practical breakdown of the US Supreme Court declining to pause the Texas DOJ agreement that ends “administrative closure,” a Biden-era rule that let immigration judges suspend certain deportation proceedings. We translate the legal jargon, explain who tried to intervene, and lay out why this fight matters for immigration enforcement, agency authority, and how far courts can go in shaping policy outcomes.
Then we bring it back to Houston: Harris County is smashing midterm early voting records, and we talk about what high turnout does and does not tell you. Charles Blain joins me for the weekly local recap, including Galveston County’s 287G cooperation, ethics and spending questions around county leadership, the broken ankle monitor program, and even the rise of beehive agriculture exemptions that can reshape property tax bills. We also cover a Texas noncitizen voting conviction, an interview with commissioner candidate Richard Vega on flood mitigation funding, and new comptroller orders aimed at tightening how state money is awarded.
