Kamala Harris' handlers have been carefully curating all of her public appearances since Joe Biden was forced off the ticket and the vice president became the presumptive nominee. For the most part, that's meant heavily scripted rallies with high-level entertainers (in popularity, not quality) doing the heavy lifting. On Thursday, she was put in a different position, though. Appearing in Houston, Harris gave the eulogy for recently passed Democrat politician Sheila Jackson Lee, and things got really weird. At one point, Harris started touting her own political record. She then called herself "the president," which led to the room bursting...

Hillary Clinton turned Democrat Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee’s funeral in Houston, Texas into a campaign event for Kamala Harris. Sheila Jackson Lee recently passed away after a battle with cancer. Kamala Harris greeted the Clintons at Sheila Jackson Lee’s funeral. WATCH: VIDEO AT LINK............. The Clintons immediately endorsed Kamala Harris for president after Biden announced he was dropping out of the 2024 race last month. Harris is the chosen one. She wasn’t chosen by the people.

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, had an "oops" moment on the House floor, as seen in C-Span video. The Houston representative declared the U.S. Constitution was some 400 years old. Unfortunately, that's incorrect. The Constitution was created in 1787 and ratified nearly a year later. Four hundred years ago, Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in North America, was founded.

More than a quarter million people in and around Houston remained without power as of Monday after Hurricane Beryl hit the city last week — a crisis that has sparked political pressure from both sides of the aisle and drawn new attention to Texas’s troubled grid. Gov. Greg Abbott (R) is demanding answers from the state’s biggest power utility over what went wrong in the storm, which led to blackouts for nearly 3 million people across Southeast Texas for days. He has given CenterPoint until the end of the month to offer an explanation amid a broad lack of response...

Nearly a million Texans were still without power on Friday. And the utility company with the most outages was facing threats of violence. ... HOUSTON — Eating becomes more difficult when the power is out. Ovens, refrigerators, microwaves, and electric stove tops become obsolete. L. Myra Gainous’ shopping cart displayed that at an H-E-B grocery store Friday afternoon. As the 83-year-old Houstonian left the store, her cart was stocked with chips, bread and fruit snacks — food she can eat until her electricity returns. Gainous is one of nearly 1 million customers still living without power five days after Hurricane...

HOUSTON — Half a million Texans are expected to suffer through sweltering heat with no electricity into early next week after Hurricane Beryl knocked out power throughout the Houston area Monday, generating anger at the region’s large utility for failing to defend the grid from a predictable summer storm. Food is spoiling in dormant refrigerators days after the Category 1 hurricane tore through power lines and utility poles. Hospitals are swarming with patients struggling with heat stroke. Businesses can’t function as residents are ordered to stay home, and many residents faced at least three or four more days of continued...

CenterPoint is a $19 billion, for-profit corporation granted a monopoly over a hundred years ago to manage and maintain the transmission and distribution of electricity across the Houston region. This regulated utility failed to deliver power to 85% of its customers during the height of a mild hurricane. In a perfect world, the Public Utility Commission would have ensured CenterPoint maintained a grid resilient enough to withstand a stronger storm. Instead, elected officials are asking the wrong questions about the emergency response. “I’ll tell you whether I’m satisfied or not when I have a full report of where their crews...

Dr. Mary Talley Bowden has taken a stand in Houston, Texas, against the medical establishment’s COVID-19 protocols, and withstood massive pressure upon her. Dr. Bowden disengaged herself from a medical system that was not treating the core of patient’s needs and set off on her own path. Dr. Bowden created BreatheMD to treat patients suffering from COVID-19 with therapeutics, wellness and monoclonal antibody treatments. To take this approach, Mary Bowden had to disconnect herself from the medical establishment. Her clinic is thriving despite the ongoing assaults from Big Pharma, the Houston Methodist hospital system and media. Dr. Bowden is on...

Federal immigration authorities previously released two illegal immigrants who are now accused of killing a 12-year-old Houston girl — but a congressional report says there were plenty of detention beds available to keep in custody. The Houston Police Department last week arrested Franklin Joe Pena Ramos, 26, and Johan Jose Martinez Rangel, 22, both Venezuelan nationals, for the strangulation killing of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, several days after her body was found in a local creek. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) confirmed that both men were released into the country on the same day they unlawfully crossed the U.S.-Mexico border, but...

Harris County’s Democratic district attorney slammed the “broken system” that allowed the two illegal immigrants accused of brutally murdering 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray loose in the US with only ankle monitors to keep track of them. “They should have never been released when they crossed over into El Paso, but we have a broken system and Jocelyn’s death resulted. And it’s just hard when you know something could have been prevented like a child’s death,” Kim Ogg told local channel KPRC on Thursday. She said the ankle monitors have proved completely ineffective. Both Johan Jose Martinez-Rangel, 21, and Franklin Jose Peña...

Martinez-Rangel’s alleged accomplice, Franklin Jose Peña Ramos, 26, told cops he tried to convince Martinez-Rangel to stop but he allegedly refused and climbed on top of the girl...

Back on June 10, we told you the story of Eithan Haim, who blew the whistle on Texas Children's Hospital performing "gender-affirming" surgeries on minors even after they'd been outlawed by the state legislature. Another whistleblower came forward and said that the hospital was billing Medicaid for these banned sex-change surgeries. The Biden administration sent two FBI agents to her house. You see, the FBI is going after Haim for violating HIPAA laws and threatening him with up to 10 years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine. Meanwhile, someone is doing something: EXCLUSIVE: Texas Rep. @BrianEHarrison has asked Texas...

An explosive, anonymous letter has shaken the legal departments in the US, alleging a conflict of interest at the heart of Houston’s bankruptcy court.
