📰 HOUSTON RANKED 2ND LEAST SAFE CITY IN AMERICA
Democrat judges in Harris County have been releasing violent criminals from jail only to get out and commit more crimes like murder, rape, and kidnapping.
As a result, over 200 people have been murdered by someone released from jail by Democrat judges in Harris County.
🛑 Stop the violent crime by casting your VOTE FOR EVERY REPUBLICAN JUDGE all the way down the ballot.
✅ Early Voting ends tomorrow. Polls are open 7A - 7P. Election Day is next Tuesday, Nov. 3rd.
STOP THE CRIME SURGE
END DEMOCRAT POOR JUDGEMENT

What’s more disturbing is Wright remains on Bond knowing full well he’s facing a 50 year sentence
What are the odds of him showing up in court the day after the election
He needs to be taken into CUSTODY immediately for the safety of his ex-wife and children
This stinks
Told you so! Council Member @AlejandraSalinas should go complain to her liberal colleagues at Harris County!
Breaking-Despite minimal @houstonpolice cooperation with ICE, Mayor @whitmire_john catches grief from immigrant advocates while Harris County @SheriffEd_HCSO has handed over 13,467 immigrants for deportation since 2024 under Democrat Commissioners Ct.

CITY OF HOUSTON VOTERS!
Today is Day 5 of 12 for EARLY VOTING.
This is a gentle reminder...
VOTE "AGAINST" the very last item on your ballot, Proposition A.
You just may save the life of one or more @HPOUTX officers.

CITY OF HOUSTON VOTERS...
Any of you who still believe that you should vote "FAVOR" (Yes) on PROPOSITION A, and its hidden provision of "...wait 15 seconds after announcing their presence," you need to READ THIS:

‼️Statement from Alexis Nungaray:
I was unable to be there in person today, so I am submitting this statement:
I hear the disappointment from council members, and I want to make something clear. Families like mine don’t have the luxury of disappointment. We live with the consequences of these decisions every single day.
I am under a gag order. I cannot speak about what was done to my daughter. I cannot say their names. I cannot describe the horrors that replay in my mind every single day. But I can say her name.
Jocelyn Nungaray.
You talk about protecting people. My daughter should still be here.
Public safety includes enforcing the law. Policies that create blind spots in law enforcement and limit what officers can do in real time put lives at risk. That risk is a reality for families like mine who have lost something irreplaceable.
I will keep speaking out, because no other family should have to learn this lesson the way mine did.
Remember her name.
Look at her picture.
Understand that behind every policy decision is a real person, a real family, and a life that cannot be replaced.
Because once it happens, there are no amendments or ordinances that bring them back.

On a recent edition of “What’s Your Point?” We heard from @HPOUTX President @Griff3945 who said Houston City Council has “opened the floodgates” with Sanctuary measure aimed at eliminating cooperation with ICE. “They are going to want more and more” said Griffith of anti-ICE Council Members. @FOX26Houston more at KRIV.Fox/wyp

NEW: ICE Houston announces the arrest of 277 illegal migrants in just 2 weeks including child predators, murderers, & drug traffickers
This comes as Houston’s city council is voting tomorrow whether to reverse a recent ordinance it passed which limits police cooperation with ICE. Gov. Abbott froze $110 million in public safety grants for Houston and said it will be pulled if they don’t revoke the ordinance tomorrow because it violates an agreement with the state.
“If these measures are implemented to limit that cooperation there will be immediate impacts to public safety, national security, and border security,” ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Houston acting Field Office Director Paul McBride said.”
Among those arrested this month, according to ICE:
1. Haydee Mercado-Rodriguez, a criminal illegal alien and MS-13 gang member from El Salvador, who was convicted and sentenced to 228 years for two counts of aggravated homicide and once count each of aggravated extortion, and participation in a terrorist organization before she fled to the U.S. In 2024, the Biden administration recklessly released her into the U.S. She was arrested April 9
2. Minh Duy Tong Nguyen, a convicted murderer from Vietnam, with a final order of removal from over 25 years ago. Nguyen was arrested April 16
3. Carlos Carmona-Palomo, wanted for homicide in Mexico & illegally entered the U.S. three times and has been convicted twice for drug possession and once each for sexual assault, carrying a prohibited weapon, illegal reentry, and larceny. He was arrested April 6 & then deported
4. Luis Hernandez Martinez, a twice-deported criminal illegal migrant and convicted murderer from Mexico, who was convicted of murder in Upshur County, Texas, in 2003, and has also been convicted of illegal entry. He was arrested April 9 & then deported

Honoring the tragedy of September 11th. We are honored to have a piece of history at the @hpoutx. This is a portion of the twin towers. We will hold a moment of silence on honor of those lost.

Unbelievable! And the Commissioners Court crying about losing funds. We should all remember this at election time.... Where is the money going? With all of this and they still raise taxes on the hard working men and women of Harris County!
From Bad to Worse - after @hctra Executive Director Robert Trevino finally conceded the toll authority was sitting on $700 million in cash….Senator @TeamBettencourt re-calls him to confirm that the ACTUAL number is $1.2 Billion dollars in surplus liquidity. Ugly. @FOX26Houston
