Texas Teacher, 46, Accused of Sexually Assaulting 5th Grader She Branded One of Her ‘Favorites’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A twisted Texas elementary school teacher is accused of sexually assaulting a fifth-grade student she branded as one of her “favorites” – as cops urge other possible victims to come forward.

Cecilia Mueller, a 46-year-old longtime Northside Independent School District employee, was arrested Monday after a former student, now 20, reported the disturbing sexual acts he endured while he was in her fifth-grade class during the 2016-17 school year, according to the San Antonio Police Department.

The victim told authorities the then-36-year-old sicko kissed him and carried out other sexual acts while they were in a closet inside her classroom, a police report obtained by News4SA said.

On one occasion, the pair were allegedly kissing while Mueller’s young child was in the classroom. The teacher waved off any concern, saying her youngster “wouldn’t remember” what had occurred, the victim said.

The student said the abuse began after he became one of the educator’s “favorites” and was made to sit at a table with peers given the same label. Mueller would wield lewd language toward her favorites, probe them about their crushes, and pry into their personal lives, the report said.

Massive Explosion at Crude Oil Refinery Rocks Texas City as Residents Told to Shelter in Place

/0 Comments/in , /by

A massive explosion at a Texas crude oil refinery shot up towering plumes of dark smoke and physically shook locals’ homes before they were ordered to shelter in place Monday.

A loud boom resounded throughout the western part of Port Arthur, Texas on Monday afternoon when part of a Valero refinery exploded, local outlets reported.

Clouds of black smoke spilled out of the refinery, sparking health concerns among residents and forcing city officials to put out a shelter-in-place order for the west end.

One resident at the scene told 12News that the entire area reeked of rotten eggs — a smell commonly associated with sulfur.

Others told the outlet that the explosion rattled their homes and vehicles.

Jefferson County Sheriff Zena Stephens suggested that the explosion may be linked to a mishap with a heating unit at the refinery, the outlet reported. (Read more from “Massive Explosion at Crude Oil Refinery Rocks Texas City as Residents Told to Shelter in Place” HERE)

Trump Despises RINOs. So Why Is He Reportedly About To Endorse One Of The Swamp’s Biggest?

/0 Comments/in , /by

If President Donald Trump is looking for a senator who embodies the spirit and action of “Republican in Name Only,” he couldn’t find no better man than milquetoast Texas Sen. John Cornyn.

The four-term RINO locked in a contentious GOP primary run-off battle against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton boasts a storied Senate career of genuflecting at the altar of the Swamp. Cornyn has been begging for Trump’s platinum endorsement more shamelessly than he’s prostituted himself for establishment cash.

And it’s looking like he might get the president’s seal of approval, if you can believe the Trump-hating Atlantic and other Pravda Press publications.

“President Trump’s political advisers expect him to endorse Senator John Cornyn in Texas’s May 26 Republican-primary runoff election following the incumbent’s better-than-expected finish against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in the first round of voting [Tuesday] three people briefed on the deliberations told us,” The Atlantic’s Michael Scherer and Ashley Parker write. . .

But here’s the thing: Trump hates RINOs — and rightfully so. He’s said so many, many times. Just ask Indiana’s “pathetic” state Senate RINO’s who got a collective tummy ache over a midterm redistricting bill pushed by Trump that would have boosted GOP membership in a wafer-thin Republican majority House. Meanwhile, Democrats are redrawing blue state maps left and left to get a leg up in the midterms. (Read more from “Trump Despises RINOs.

Texas Mass Shooter Ndiaga Diagne Had Iranian Flag and Photos of Islamic Republic Leaders in His Home: Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

The murderous gunman who shot up a Texas bar in a possible terrorist attack had an Iranian flag and photos of Islamic Republic leaders in his home, according to a report.

Senegalese national Ndiaga Diagne, 53, may have been motivated by the joint attack by Israel and the US when he pulled up to Buford’s Backyard Beer Garden in Austin on Sunday wearing a “Property of Allah” shirt and started shooting, killing two people and wounding 14 others, officials have said.

After Diagne was shot dead by Austin police officers, a search warrant executed at his home revealed an Iranian flag and pictures of Iranian leaders, sources with direct knowledge told CBS News.

A Quran was also found in Diagne’s car and he was also wearing an undershirt with the Iranian flag or other Iranian symbols, The Post previously revealed.

FBI Special Agent Alex Doran told reporters on Sunday that while authorities are working to determine the exact motivation for the mass shooting, there were “indicators on the subject and in his vehicle that indicate a potential nexus to terrorism.” (Read more from “Texas Mass Shooter Ndiaga Diagne Had Iranian Flag and Photos of Islamic Republic Leaders in His Home: Report” HERE)

Daughters of Irishman Held by ICE Say Father Abandoned Them and Should Return to Face Drug Charges: Report

/0 Comments/in , /by

The estranged twin daughters of an Irishman who has been held in a Texas immigration detention facility for nearly five months blasted their father as an absentee parent — arguing he should be sent back to Ireland to face long-standing drug charges, according to a report.

Heather and Melissa Morrissey felt compelled to speak out after their father, Seamus Culleton, pleaded on RTÉ radio for Irish authorities to intervene in his US detention so he could return to his American wife and life in Boston, where he runs a construction company, according to the Daily Mail.

The twins, who are about to turn 19, told the outlet that Culleton “abandoned” them when they were 18 months old, leaving their mother, Margaret “Maggie” Morrissey, to raise them alone.

“I feel that we were born and he just up and left. He did abandon us. That’s what he did,” Heather told the outlet about her father, who Department of Homeland authorities said overstayed his 90-day tourist visa more than 15 years ago.

The sisters said they have not received “a penny” in child support from their father and never saw him in person again after he moved to the US. (Read more from “Daughters of Irishman Held by ICE Say Father Abandoned Them and Should Return to Face Drug Charges: Report” HERE)

Democrat Wins Deep-Red State Senate Seat In Landslide, Major Upset

/2 Comments/in , /by

Democratic Texas Senate candidate Taylor Rehmet defeated Trump-endorsed Republican Leigh Wambsganss in a Saturday special election for a seat the president won by double digits three times, multiple outlets project.

Rehmet, a union leader and Air Force veteran, won 57.2% of the vote compared to Wambsganss’s 42.8%, with 95% of the vote in, according to The Associated Press (AP). Texas Senate District 9 — which is entirely based in Tarrant County and includes parts of Fort Worth and Arlington — was last represented by former Republican State Sen. Kelly Hancock who resigned in June 2025 to work for the Texas Comptroller’s Office.

Under its current boundaries, District 9 voted for Trump by 17 percentage points in 2024, 13 points in 2020, and 23 points in 2016, according to data from Dave’s Redistricting App (DRA).

Rehmet’s campaign website describes him as a “a union president, veteran, and working-class Texan running for State Senate to fight for public schools, affordable housing, and real results for everyday people.”

Meanwhile, Wambsganss received a last-minute endorsement from Trump. (Read more from “Democrat Wins Deep-Red State Senate Seat In Landslide, Major Upset” HERE)

Florida Joins Texas In Ending American Bar Association’s ‘Gatekeeper’ Grip On Law Schools

/0 Comments/in , /by

In a major step toward greater ideological freedom in the legal profession, the state of Florida ended the left-wing American Bar Association’s (ABA) dominance over its law schools on Thursday.

In its nine-page order, the Florida Supreme Court revealed that it has amended the state’s bar admissions rule “to end the rule’s reliance on the American Bar Association (ABA) as the sole accrediting agency for law schools whose graduates are eligible to sit for this state’s General Bar Examination.” (Lawyers are required to pass the bar exam to practice law in each state.)

As noted in its order, the Florida Supreme Court appointed a “workgroup to study this issue” in March 2025, with the group submitting a final report later that year in October. The Sunshine State’s high court approved the rule changes last month, culminating in the release of Thursday’s directive.

“Based on its independent study and its consideration of the workgroup’s report, the Court is persuaded that it is not in Floridians’ best interest for the ABA to be the sole gatekeeper deciding which law schools’ graduates are eligible to sit for the state’s General Bar Examination and become licensed attorneys in Florida,” the court wrote.

The Florida justices contended that the new rules “create the opportunity for additional entities to carry out an accrediting and gatekeeping function on behalf of the Court.” They further argued that in adopting such changes, the court is seeking to “promote access to high-quality, affordable legal education in law schools that are committed to the free exchange of ideas and to the principle of nondiscrimination.” (Read more from “Florida Joins Texas In Ending American Bar Association’s ‘Gatekeeper’ Grip On Law Schools” HERE)

New Law Lets Texans Sue Out-Of-State Dealers For Trafficking Abortion Drugs

/0 Comments/in , /by

A new law designed to combat Democrat laws shielding abortion drug traffickers who take advantage of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s radically expanded mail-order mifepristone allowances went into effect on Thursday in Texas.

Lone Star legislators passed House Bill 7 in September to create a punishment mechanism for illegal interstate abortion pill transactions and the dangerous and deadly consequences they hold for women and their unborn children.

Under the new statute, private citizens are permitted to sue out-of-state mifepristone prescribers, manufacturers, and distributors, such as pharmacies, for “an amount of not less than $100,000” for each violation of the state’s ban on abortion pills. Enforcement is modeled after Texas’ successful 2021 heartbeat bill, which virtually eliminated abortion in the state by granting anyone outside of the government to bring a civil action against anyone who performs or aids and abets ending a life in the womb.

Abortion activists have already dubbed the law a “dangerous” “attack” fueled by “fearmongering and intimidation.” Media such as the Houston Chronicle and The Guardian joined the dogpile with articles framing the law as a “bounty hunter” scheme.

“Abortion pill underground” coordinators, such as the Massachusetts Medication Abortion Access Project (MAP), have also committed in print and online to continue their drug smuggling schemes regardless of potential consequences.

Trump-Appointed Judge May Have Just Cost Republicans Nearly Half A Dozen House Seats

/0 Comments/in , /by

A three-judge federal panel ruled on Tuesday that Texas can’t use the GOP-drawn redistricting map designed to boost Republican chances in the 2026 midterm elections.

Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott signed the new map into law in August, which would add up to five additional House seats for the Republican Party in the midterms, The Texas Tribune reported. However, the 2-1 Tuesday ruling asserts the map was “racially gerrymandered.”

A judge appointed by President Donald Trump joined a judge appointed by former President Obama in the ruling. A judge appointed by former President Ronald Reagan dissented.

“The public perception of this case is that it’s about politics. To be sure, politics played a role in drawing the 2025 Map,” the ruling states. “But it was much more than just politics. Substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the 2025 Map.”

Texas is anticipated to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, according to the Associated Press. (Read more from “Trump-Appointed Judge May Have Just Cost Republicans Nearly Half A Dozen House Seats” HERE)

A beef over a food order mix-up sparked a vicious, seven-person brawl inside a Texas Whataburger last week, according to reports and authorities.

Police were dispatched to the San Antonio Whataburger just after 3 a.m. last Sunday in response to the wild melee, the San Antonio Police Department told KSAT.

After cops arrived, they learned an order mix-up caused the fight to erupt among two groups of patrons, authorities said.

A viral video posted to social media after the incident captured separate fights breaking out within the group, where individuals were seen pummeling and kicking others to the floor.

Pictures of the aftermath showed blood covering the booths and floor of the fast food chain.
