    Hearst hits Lubbock TV anchor in shoddy story | Is there too much “local control” in Texas? – Pratt on Texas 5/28/2026

    The news of Texas covered today includes: Our Lone Star story of the day: Does Texas state law allow for too much local control for local governments? If not, then how does a relatively small school district amass more than $1 BILLION in debt that is payable by taxpayers for generations? 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. Lubbock Central Appraisal District: Are accusations that company played property tax process to gain advantage a one-time issue or burgeoning problem? Yes, there are statewide problems with the way the appraisal side of the property tax system works but that’s not what is really at issue here. In this case it seems more of a mattter of integrity of LCAD officials: If you give one firm a deal, you should give the same deal to the other firms representing taxpayers. Hearst’s Chron.com lashes out at a Lubbock TV anchor implying he made “racist” statements on the air.What shoddy work by the reporter who neither shows how the comments are in any way racist or that what was said was demonstrably untrue. It is the reporter and media outlet that needs to issue an apology to the Eppler unless it can present actual information. And if Eppler was wrong on the statement, all that needs is an on air correction, it certainly isn’t a racist or bigoted comment in and of itself.

    Trump backs Paxton, Cornyn was “late” backing Trump | Wright’s Adelson donation – Pratt on Texas 5/19/2026

    The news of Texas covered today includes: Our Lone Star story of the day: After stringing it out for far too long, President Trump issues an endorsement in the GOP race for U.S. Senator from Texas. Trump fully backs Paxton, points out that Cornyn was “very late” in backing him and “not supportive.. when times were tough.” Liberals at the Dallas Morning News editorial board try to tell Republicans, who they want to lose in November, how to win! They are right that Texas is “in play” but not because of Paxton or Cornyn in the race but because of a general apathy this race by the GOP base to turn out. That will likely change by the fall. Court of Criminal Appeals Candidate, Alison Fox, Faces Criticism Over Event Hosted by Attorneys in ICE Attack Case. Her comments in this story are spot on, this is ridiculous. Jim Wright gets big money from Texas Sands PAC and the fake outrage is ridiculous. The RRC has nothing whatsoever to do with gambling. Adelson, who is Jewish, and her late husband have long been one of the biggest GOP donors in the country. No doubt it is true that Bo French’s seemingly anti-Semitic “rhetoric” is the motivator here.

SpaceX’s Upgraded Starship V3 Ready for Debut Launch Ahead of IPO – launch is likely tomorrow. SpaceX’s IPO to Mint Millionaires in Poor Texas Border Town – Brownsville is a city and all there are no poor! NY Post story: Brandon Sorsby’s gambling habits exposed by Texas Tech QB’s NCAA lawsuit. His comments in the story show that despite being off to rehab, he doesn’t yet take the gambling addiction as a serious problem. Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.
