A new year brought the swearing-in of newly elected officials in Harris County, Texas, and among them were 17 black female judges.

The group of women, who were part of a local democratic campaign called "Black Girl Magic Texas," first made history -- and headlines -- when they won their respective midterm elections in November. Together, they make up what is believed to be the largest group of black female judges to be elected at the same time in Harris County history.

A slow, incremental takeover and destruction of our country. And the main reason why there will never be another civil war.

“Here comes a new bathroom bill for Houston!”

Maybe the bathrooms will go along with the new “Blacks Only” water fountains

What’s with selecting judges by their skin color and gender? No good can possibly come from this. Harris County sounds like a good place to stay away from. Now it looks like it’s going to turn into one of those “no go” places like they have in France.

“Black Girl Magic Texas,”

Naaa, no racism there. No black supreamacy happening there. No one obsesses over skin color as much as blacks.

Be very interesting to see what happens to crime rate convictions there.

The demographic change of Texas is from corporations moving their operations and headquarters from liberal states to Texas for economic advantage.

The problem is that they bring their liberal employees with them, with pay increase for the move.

These transplants continue to vote their failed state ways.

The whole reason their companies chose to move from liberal states.

Saw a TV news segment on Philly tonight. Increase in crime and correlated to the freeing up prisons/letting out prisoners early. Police media liaison or whoever he was declined to comment on that without stats, lol. The gist was that releasing more criminals from the prisons jacked up the crimes.

IMO, they’ve done the work to change the supposed past inequality and this is it.

In Texas, you can vote straight ticket. Fortunately this will no longer be allowed in future elections. This group if women judges won their Democrat primary races. If not for Beto-mania, this would not have happened

Yes but it’s also the demographic change throughout the entire country.

What you said is also what happened to Florida and other southern states...but it’s not just that. The demographics are changing, have been changing for decades.

That would be the results of straight ticket voting in Harris county, 70 million dollars can help bring out the stupid vote fairly quick.
