367 – Legislative Proxy Voting
During the COVID-19 scamdemic, Nancy Pelosi once again ignored the Constitution and implemented by rule something called “proxy voting”. Now, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit in federal court challenging a bill because the final version passed in the House of Representatives by proxy vote.

340 – When is Freedom of Speech Not Freedom of Speech?
You may have heard about Texas bill H.B. 20, an attempt by the government of Texas to prevent censorship by social media companies.

I recently saw the body cam video of a Galveston, TX police officer arresting a woman for not wearing a mask in a local bank. While many seem to be appalled by the actions of the officer, I see this as an excellent example of how ignorance of our rights has led to the situation this woman was in.
