Words cannot express the gratitude I felt last night at my portrait unveiling ceremony in the U.S. Capitol.
I want to thank the Rules Committee, Texas Delegation, my fellow members, and my staff for your hard work over the last 22 years.
It’s been an honor to represent #TX26.

I was honored to lead my colleagues in unveiling the Congressional Portrait of my dear friend and fellow Texan, @michaelcburgess.
There’s not a smarter, more competent, and more committed member of Congress than Dr. Burgess. His distinguished leadership and uncommon commitment to excellence in service to our country has impacted not only the great state of Texas, but has improved the quality of life for all Americans.

THE DEMOCRATS’ INSURRECTION AGAINST JOE BIDEN
Democratic Party operatives and their allies in the MSM are engaged in a full-scale insurrection to prevent the certification of President Biden as the Democratic nominee even though he won all the necessary votes in 50 state primary elections. This attempt at election interference is not motivated by the sudden discovery of Biden’s cognitive impairment (about which they’ve known, hidden, and gaslit for years) but rather by the fact that Biden is down in the polls and is likely to lose.
They call this “preserving democracy” but what they really mean is preserving their own power. As @balajis has pointed out, “democracy” means permanent rule by the Democratic Party just as “communism” meant permanent rule by the Communist Party.
In the name of democracy, this caste of Party operatives has also sought to censor true speech on the Internet, prosecute political opponents, and even remove their leading opponent’s name from the ballot. Having failed at that, they are looking for new trickery. Like a pack of hyenas, they will gladly turn on each other if it means one more feeding on the desiccated carcass of their own corrupt rule.
Voters should punish this mendacity up and down the ticket in November. This pack of liars knew about the president’s dangerous infirmity and covered it up until the lie could be sustained no more. People this hungry for power should never be entrusted with it.
The framers’ vision for American democracy was citizen-leaders who would return back to their communities and businesses, not permanent rule by a corrupt Party apparatus that undemocratically swaps out front men like avatars in a video game. There is only one way to restore true democracy as the founders intended it: vote out this entire pack of liars in November.

I try to post an eclectic variety of stuff here on Traces and to put myself in the place of a mythical "every Texan" when I consider putting something on the page i.e. would this mythical "every Texan" find this interesting? Having said that, I have a (perhaps understandable) soft spot for things that show up that speak to my own, personal experience or something that I did in a previous incarnation. All of which is a roundabout way of saying that I sure do love this 1986 photo of a group of young men getting ready to head to the river in Menard, Texas. Traces of Texas reader Belinda Fleming graciously sent this in. These could very well be my friends and me and, in fact, there was an time in Little River-Academy back in the late 70s when ... oh, never mind. These guys are headed to the river. I'm guessing beer may be involved and that whatever last-minute instructions are being issued by the mom in the photo will be strictly adhered to ..... NOT!
Thank you, Belinda. Super snapshot!

The Permian Basin is the heart of Texas' booming oil and gas industry.
This week, I met with leaders from the Permian Strategic Partnership to discuss how Texas can continue to protect our vital energy industry.
I will always support hardworking Texans who work in oil and gas.
