Child abuse by the state agency that's supposed to investigate child abuse.

Greg Abbott's Texas.

https://www.houstonchronicle.com/politics/texas/article/Lapses-found-even-as-Texas-foster-care-facility-17010673


The caretaker accused of selling nude photos of two teenage victims of sexual abuse at a state-contracted shelter in Bastrop was previously fired from a nearby state juvenile facility for having inappropriate relationships with children in her care, state records show.


Iesha M. Greene was fired by the Texas Juvenile Justice Department in April 2020 after seven months on staff at the Giddings State School in Lee County. She was hired 16 months later by The Refuge, a private Bastrop facility for girls who have been sexually abused.



Texas authorities say Greene in January solicited and sold nude pictures of two girls in the facility’s care. The incident eventually led authorities to shut down the 50-acre ranch while they conduct an investigation.



The Refuge officials have testified that they run state-required background checks on all prospective employees and that Greene’s screening revealed she did not have a criminal record.
The Refuge spokesperson Steven Phenix said the facility was “absolutely not” aware Greene was fired from Giddings, which he said would have prevented her hiring at the Bastrop facility.


Phenix said Greene did disclose her employment at Giddings, but The Refuge’s hiring staff never contacted her former supervisors there. The Texas Tribune obtained Greene’s personnel files, which are publicly available, through a records request.

Texas governors have tasked themselves with protecting the border since 2005, costing Texas billions. How effective has that been?

Hard to say when Texas can't account for how the money was spent and the claimed successes are merely hot air emitted in press releases.


The way the governors and their administrations have tracked success has fluctuated over the years, offering little clarity into whether the state is closer to securing the border today than it was nearly 20 years ago.


Neither the governor’s office nor the DPS, the main agency leading border security efforts, can provide a full breakdown of the state-led operations since 2005, their duration, their cost to taxpayers and their accomplishments. Because the state has declined to provide such information, the news organizations compiled a partial list of recent border operations and their outcomes using news releases and media coverage, as well as reports by both the Texas Legislative Budget Board, the state’s top budget analysts, and advocacy groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union.


Perry could not be reached for comment through a representative. Abbott’s office didn’t respond to questions about tracking the success of the state’s initiatives and the continued need for border operations. Instead, Abbott spokesperson Renae Eze repeated the governor’s claims that the latest operation was a response to the federal government’s failure under Biden to secure the border. She reiterated that Operation Lone Star kept “millions of deadly drugs and thousands of criminals and weapons” off the streets.

DPS lies about border enforcement.


DPS officials have not provided any proof of the department’s citation of hundreds of gang arrests. The department denied a public records request from ProPublica, the Tribune and The Marshall Project, saying gang affiliation is not a metric that is tracked. The agency said that in some instances those people arrested have “active warrants, previous records, etc. that indicate certain gang affiliations.” The news organizations found (https://www.propublica.org/article/texas-governor-brags-about-his-border-initiative-the-data-doesnt-back-him-up)multiple examples (https://www.propublica.org/article/texas-governor-brags-about-his-border-initiative-the-data-doesnt-back-him-up) in arrest data and drug seizure information that raised questions about claims that the operation focused on dangerous cartels and smugglers. Among those examples were arrests with no links to the border.https://www.propublica.org/article/texas-greg-abbott-border-crisis-facts

Winehole23

Bullshit about drug seizures


Abbott credited to Operation Lone Star in February, only about 160 pounds were seized (https://www.propublica.org/article/texas-governor-brags-about-his-border-initiative-the-data-doesnt-back-him-up) in the 63 counties that the state included as part of the initiative. El Paso County accounted for all but 12 pounds of the fentanyl captured as part of Operation Lone Star. The county was among several that declined to sign on to the governor’s border disaster declaration and, as of November, when most of the fentanyl was seized, had not received extra resources as part of the program.

Winehole23

taking credit for increased federal enforcement


Abbott correctly stated that the number of immigrants caught entering the Rio Grande Valley sector, which includes 19 counties (https://www.cbp.gov/border-security/along-us-borders/border-patrol-sectors/rio-grande-valley-sector-texas) in South Texas, fell by about 46% after the start of the operation. In March 2021, Border Patrol apprehended 62,685 immigrants. A year later, the apprehension numbers in that region had dropped to 44,073. But Abbott’s statement failed to acknowledge that the number of immigrants Border Patrol agents took into custody across the state remained at its highest levels in at least two decades, averaging about 110,381 a month since the operation launched.

Texas governors have tasked themselves with protecting the border since 2005, costing Texas billions. How effective has that been?

Hard to say when Texas can't account for how the money was spent and the claimed successes are merely hot air emitted in press releases.

The 342M doses (887 pounds worth) were seized in the operation’s border areas, really? Thought no one would fact check?

Most of the fentanyl along border was seized in El Paso county, and they were not supported by the governor’s $$$$$.

The other statistics are also a bunch of crap! See article below.

You are a gullible rube! :lmao

Abbott and his reelection campaign are citing figures that reflect fentanyl seizures across the state, including those that would have occurred without the operation. Of the 887 pounds of fentanyl that Abbott credited to Operation Lone Star in February, only about 160 pounds were seized in the 63 counties that the state included as part of the initiative.

El Paso County accounted for all but 12 pounds of the fentanyl captured as part of Operation Lone Star. The county was among several that declined to sign on to the governor’s border disaster declaration and, as of November, when most of the fentanyl was seized, had not received extra resources as part of the program.

Texas Gov. Abbott's Solution to Formula Shortage?

Let Migrant Babies Starve

Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott was widely condemned Thursday for his joint statement with the National Border Patrol Council complaining about the Biden administration feeding migrant children in U.S. custody amid a national shortage of infant formula.

"I can't come up with the words to describe how despicable and inhumane this is."

"Gov. Abbott and NBPC are literally demanding that the government lock babies in cages and then starve them of the sustenance they need to survive," tweeted (https://twitter.com/carltakei/status/1524841409169137664) Carl Takei, a senior staff attorney at the ACLU.

"I just... I can't come up with the words to describe how despicable and inhumane this is."

"I'm especially blown away by the explicit contrast this

statement sets up between 'our children' (who are vulnerable, precious, and deserve survival)

vs.

the not-our-children who deserve to starve in our baby jails,"

New polling released Wednesday by the University of Texas at Austin/Texas Politics Project showed that O'Rourke still has a long way to go if he hopes to defeat Abbott when they go head-to-head at the ballot box on November 8.

While nearly half (48 percent) of registered voters in Texas backed Abbott, just 37 percent supported O'Rourke. That's an 11 point lead for the GOP governor over his Democratic rival.

Paying more than we should in taxes sucks for me, I guess you're ok with it. It especially sucks for these people:

SAN ANTONIO — Property tax relief is coming to Texas residents.

Two constitutional amendments passed in the May 7 election—and it could mean hundreds of dollars in relief.

The effects of the hot housing market can be felt in neighborhoods like on the west side of downtown, where a rise in home values means a rise in taxes that some can’t afford.

Had a red team relative show me the FOX footage of Beto getting up and yelling at Abbott during a news briefing not long after said event.
FOX edited the footage perfectly to make Beto look like a maniac. Abbott just put his head down while Beto yelled. The before and after of the clip was much more revealing. This is what people want to see. Partial takes that make them mad. Happens both ways imo.

Imo it was much more significant to actually see the whole of a Trump speech and reading the transcript instead of just the horrible f up. It was telling to see him yo yo before and after he realized what he had done and how his mind-mouth worked as he tried to weasel out. His rambling diatribe would always come back to himself. Imo this made it so clear what a narcissistic tool he is. And amazingly a portion of the red team still deifies this lout after all the interviews about Jan 6. and his reactions. The blue team has hope for consecutive presidencies if Trump wins the nomination methinks.

Supreme Court backs Biden administration in immigration policy rollback

WASHINGTON (Gray DC) - The Supreme Court finished its term Wednesday with a ruling in a case over a Trump-era immigration policy. In the final opinion of the term, the justices ruled 5-4 in Biden v. Texas. The majority ruled in favor of a Biden Administration decision to scrap a Trump-era rule that sent asylum-seeking immigrants back to Mexico to wait for their trials in the US.

“This is a massive decision from the court,” said Karen Tumlin from the Justice Action Center.

Tumlin praised the opinion written by Chief Justice John Roberts, joined by Justice Brett Kavanaugh and the three liberal justices.

On his first day in office, President Biden announced the reversal of the 2019 Trump rule called the Migrant Protection Protocol or “Remain in Mexico” program. Immigration advocates argued the policy put asylum seekers in dangerous situations in Mexico.

But the states of Texas and Missouri sued, saying reversing the policy is illegal. Lower courts agreed, but the nation’s highest court overturned their ruling Thursday, saying the administration was within its rights to reverse the policy, and the lower courts now need to reassess how the administration went about the reversal.

the semantics can be worked out,,,when I read this article,,,I thought it was a great idea by the woman. I bet most republicans would vote to pass a bill that allows pregnant women to use the HOV lane so democrats thinking republicans would hate this are way off,,,,,dont be suprised if Abbott is for this,,,,

Kinney County fascists


After an eleven-month FBI investigation, Lucas “Rooster” Denney, president of a North Texas militia, was arrested in December on a southwest Texas ranch on eight counts related to his participation in the January 6 riots at the U.S. Capitol. Denney’s arrest warrant was based on a complaint that accused him of planning, recruiting, and fund-raising for the attack, fighting with law enforcement, and participating in the front line of the “heave-ho” battle at an entrance to the building. According to an incident report of the arrest, obtained by public records request, a Department of Public Safety officer took custody of Denney, 45, at a property in Brackettville, before turning him over to the FBI in Del Rio, thirty minutes to the west. The coordinates where he was arrested match those of a ranch that appears to be under the control of the Kinney County attorney, Brent Smith.


Smith, 42, serves on the advisory board (https://tnm.me/about/) of the Texas Nationalist Movement, which advocates for the state to exit the Union, and has been the primary champion of extreme policies to deter immigration in Kinney County. In the year since Governor Greg Abbott announced Operation Lone Star, which authorizes Texas law enforcement agencies to arrest border crossers on state trespassing charges, Kinney has apprehended more migrants than any other county in Texas. Smith oversees prosecutions of those arrested. In July, he helped draft a declaration announcing that the county was under an “invasion” from border crossers, and requested that Abbott employ Article I, Section 10 (https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/article-1/section-10/) of the U.S. Constitution to immediately send migrants back to Mexico, ignoring federal jurisdiction.

Eric Adams claps back at Greg Abbott’s Post op-ed: ‘Get this man a dictionary’

Mayor Eric Adams told Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to brush up on his vocabulary Wednesday amid their ongoing war of words over the relocation of migrants from the Lone Star State to the Big Apple.

“Someone get this man a dictionary,” mayoral press secretary Fabien Levy said in a prepared statement. “‘Hypocrisy’ is claiming you love America and then decrying the words on the Statue of Liberty.”

The broadside from City Hall came in response to a blistering Post op-ed column in which Abbott accused Adams of being all talk when it comes to New York’s status as a “sanctuary city.”

“What Adams is dealing with is a trifle of what small border towns grapple with daily,” Abbott wrote. “Those communities have been ripped apart by cartel-infused crime that destroys ranches, invades homes and threatens the safety of Texas residents along highly trafficked areas of the border.”

In his statement, Levy said, “To be clear, Mayor Adams and New York City will continue to welcome asylum seekers with open arms.

“These individuals and families have been through hell, and they deserve more than being used as political pawns by a governor who cares about nothing more than reelection,” he said.

“Gov. Abbott should actually focus on the failures he has burdened Texans with before spending time writing op-eds in New York papers.”
