Plot Thickens After Dan Crenshaw Makes Not One, but Two Death Threats Against Tucker Carlson

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Revolver News. By now, most have likely heard of Dan Crenshaw. The Texas representative is back on the warpath. For those who haven’t caught his latest unhinged, violent rant, it’s a real doozy—and sadly, this behavior is right on brand for this angry, out-of-control congressman.

However, this time, Crenshaw didn’t just cross a line—he bulldozed right over it, and this was so bad, he may never recover. But before we dive into that, it’s important to note—this story isn’t just about angry, unhinged Dan Crenshaw lashing out yet again. There’s a strange twist, and now, all eyes are on GB News, with many questioning whether the network is running some serious cover for Crenshaw and if so, why?

The whole saga began during an interview with GB News, a British network. When the official interview wrapped up, the cameras kept rolling—capturing Crenshaw admitting, not once, but twice, that if he ever met Tucker Carlson in person, he would “kill” him.

Here’s the GB News interview that aired—where Crenshaw’s obsession with all things Tucker was on full display.

After the interview, reporter Steve Edginton took to X and exposed Crenshaw’s death threats toward Tucker Carlson. Here’s his post:

Rep. Dan Crenshaw Appears to Say He’d ‘Kill’ Tucker Carlson in Hot Mic Moment With British Journalist

By Houston Chronicle. U.S. Rep. Dan Crenshaw appeared to say he’d “kill” political commentator Tucker Carlson in a hot mic moment with a British journalist.

Following an interview with GB News, journalist Steven Edginton asked Crenshaw, a Republican who has represented Texas in the House of Representatives since 2019, if he’s ever met Carlson.

“We’ve talked a lot on Twitter,” Crenshaw responded. “If I ever meet him, I’ll f— kill him.” (Read more from “Rep. Dan Crenshaw Appears to Say He’d ‘Kill’ Tucker Carlson in Hot Mic Moment With British Journalist” HERE)

Unitarian Universalist Lawmaker Offers Atheist Invocation to ‘God of Many Names’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A Texas lawmaker whose religious affiliation includes atheists and agnostics suggested all religions pray to the same “God of many names” during an interfaith prayer service at the state capitol.

Democratic Rep. Donna Howard of Austin delivered the opening invocation for the Feb. 11 meeting of the 89th Legislative Session with a prayer for “Texans of every religion and no religion” in which she gave thanks for living in a nation, she said, that protects the “freedom of and from religion.”

“I’m grateful to live in a country where we have a constitutional right to no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the full exercise thereof, freedom of and from religion,” said Howard, a former nurse who has represented her district since 2006.

“In that spirit and with respect for all Texans of every religion and no religion,” Howard continued, “we seek guidance for the day before use from the God of our understanding, from that moral compass that calls us to recognize our interconnectedness and our collective work, and to bring to that work the better angels of ourselves on behalf of all Texans whom we have been given the privilege to serve.”

She referred to the “Spirit of Life, God of many names” in her prayer and asked, “Let us know that each from our own tradition comes today to lift our spirit in unity.” (Read more from “Unitarian Universalist Lawmaker Offers Atheist Invocation to ‘God of Many Names'” HERE)

Report: ‘Missing’ Republican Congresswoman Living in Texas Assisted Living Facility

/1 Comment/in , /by

Rep. Kay Granger (R-TX), who has missed votes for months, is reportedly in Texas at a $4,000-per-month assisted living facility.

The Dallas Express reported the 81-year-old, who represents Texas’s 12th congressional district, last voted in the House on July 24, and has not voted since.

As part of its investigation, the Express found that Granger’s D.C. office phones went directly to voicemail, found no sign her local Texas office was occupied, and ultimately discovered she is a resident at an assisted living facility:

We then received a tip from a Granger constituent who shared that the Congresswoman has been residing at a local memory care and assisted living home for some time after having been found wandering lost and confused in her former Cultural District/West 7th neighborhood.

The Dallas Express team visited the facility to confirm whether Granger was residing there and to inquire about how she planned to vote on the spending bill. Upon arrival, two employees confirmed that Granger is indeed living at the facility. However, we were not permitted to conduct an interview regarding the current spending debate in the House of Representatives and how or if Ms. Granger planned to vote.

Texas Just Scored a Major Win in Regards to the Border

/3 Comments/in , /by

Texas received a massive win on Wednesday after the federal court of appeals ruled that the Lonestar state is allowed to construct a border wall using razor wire to keep illegal immigrants from unlawfully entering the United States. Lame-duck President Joe Biden previously ordered authorities to cut the razor wire down.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) celebrated the significant victory after the state sued the Biden-Harris Administration for damaging and interfering with Texas’ action to protect its border.

Huge Win in the Fight to Stop Democratic Cities From Harboring Criminals

/1 Comment/in , , /by

A federal appeals court on Wednesday ruled that Texas has the right to build a razor wire border wall to deter illegal immigration into the Lone Star State.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced the ruling on X, saying President Biden was “wrong to cut our razor wire.”

“We continue adding more razor wire border barrier,” the Republican leader wrote.

Wednesday’s 2-1 decision by the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals clears the way for Texas to pursue a lawsuit accusing the Biden administration of trespassing without having to remove the fencing. (Read more from “Huge Win in the Fight to Stop Democratic Cities From Harboring Criminals” HERE)

Doctors Performing Trans Experiments on Kids Should Prepare to Be Sued in Texas and Elsewhere

/0 Comments/in , /by

In Texas, cases are mounting against physicians who broke state law by prescribing puberty blockers and hormones to minors under the guise of “gender affirming care.”

On Oct. 17, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a lawsuit against Dr. May Lau, a pediatrician and professor at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center. The suit claims that Lau treated 21 children with hormone blockers after the practice became illegal in the state and then “falsified” medical and billing records and prescriptions to manipulate the appearance of the care she provided.

Less than two weeks later, Paxton filed another suit accusing Dr. Hector Granados, an El Paso-area pediatric endocrinologist and known “gender care” provider, of “harming the health and safety of Texas children.” Paxton’s suit against Granados alleges the physician falsified medical records, prescriptions, and billing records to “intentionally conceal the unlawful conduct in violation” of Texas law.

On Nov. 4 Paxton named a third physician, Dr. M. Brett Cooper, in a lawsuit for allegedly providing “gender transition” drugs to minors after Texas law forbade it.

In a statement, Paxton said that Texas is “cracking down” on physicians who continue to illegally prescribe such drugs to minors and “will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.” (Read more from “Doctors Performing Trans Experiments on Kids Should Prepare to Be Sued in Texas and Elsewhere” HERE)

Texas, Georgia Election Data Shatters Democrats’ Voter ID Lies

/0 Comments/in , /by

It’s no secret that Democrats lie about commonsense election safeguards — especially voter ID laws.

While supported by the vast majority of Americans, these requirements, leftists baselessly argue, are evil because they suppress voters’ ability to cast ballots in any given election. In 2021, for example, Kamala Harris attempted to justify her opposition to such laws by outlandishly claiming voters — specifically those living in rural areas — have no way of making photocopies of their ID cards.

“I don’t think that we should underestimate what that [compromise on voter ID laws] could mean,” Harris said. “Because in some people’s mind, that means you’re going to have to Xerox or photocopy your ID to send it in to prove who you are. Well, there are a whole lot of people, especially people who live in rural communities, who don’t — there’s no Kinkos, there’s no OfficeMax near them.”

While it’s unclear what century the vice president believes we’re living in, Democrats’ insinuation that voters are too stupid to know how to acquire an acceptable form of ID to vote is not only insulting; it’s completely unsupported by the facts.

In a new report obtained by The Federalist, the Honest Elections Project (HEP) demonstrates how voter data from recent elections in Texas and Georgia disproves the left’s phony narrative that requiring eligible electors to provide ID when voting by mail “suppresses” their ability to participate in the electoral process.

Woman Admits to Drugging Migrant Kids With Melatonin Gummies as Part of Child-Trafficking Ring: ‘We Knocked Her Out’

/2 Comments/in , /by

A Texas woman has confessed to drugging young girls with melatonin gummies while trafficking them into the US — just as border agents are warning that kids are being smuggled through similar means all across the southern border.

Vanessa Valadez, 23, of Laredo, pleaded guilty Friday to working with family members to smuggle children under the age of 5 into the country from Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, between August and September 2023.

“La noquiamos con unas gomitas,” one of Valdez’s co-conspirators wrote in a message alongside an image of a passed out girl during one operation — which translates to “we knocked her out with some gummies.”

Valdez and her family smuggled at least four young girls into the country, according to Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), picking them up from a stash house across the border and drugging them before using phony birth certificates to try to pass them off as family members.

After Laredo, the girls were taken deeper into the US and left with unknown people for unknown purposes. (Read more from “Woman Admits to Drugging Migrant Kids With Melatonin Gummies as Part of Child-Trafficking Ring: ‘We Knocked Her Out’ HERE)

‘They’re Gonna Pay for It’: A Single Texas Billionaire May Be About to Force Greenpeace USA Into Bankruptcy

/1 Comment/in , , /by

The Texas billionaire owner of a major pipeline company is on the precipice of potentially bankrupting Greenpeace USA, The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday.

Kelcy Warren’s company, Energy Transfer, is seeking legal recourse against Greenpeace’s American arm in court, alleging that several Greenpeace USA entities paid for attacks against the company’s Dakota Access Pipeline and proliferated misinformation about the firm and its project in 2016, according to the WSJ. At the time, the project was a flashpoint in the environmental movement’s crusade against major fossil fuel infrastructure developments, and it was ultimately completed in 2017.

“Everybody is afraid of these environmental groups and the fear that it may look wrong if you fight back with these people,” Warren said in a televised interview in 2017, according to the WSJ. “But what they did to us is wrong, and they’re gonna pay for it.”

Eco-activists flocked to the construction site of the pipeline in North Dakota in 2016 to try to stop the $3.8 billion project from being built, and clashes between the protesters and law enforcement occasionally turned violent, according to the WSJ. The lawsuit, which seeks $300 million in damages, would probably crush Greenpeace USA, though it does not pose such a threat to Greenpeace’s international operations because the organization’s main organizing body based in the Netherlands does not own assets in the U.S.

The company tried to sue in federal court first, and refiled the suit in a state court after a federal judge threw out the original litigation, according to the WSJ. Energy Transfer is pursuing the lawsuit under a law that was originally created to go after the mafia.

Texas Scores ‘Major Victory’ Over Biden Administration

/2 Comments/in , /by

The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled in Texas’s favor, lifting an injunction that ordered the state to remove buoys it placed in the Rio Grande River to deter illegal border crossings.

The Biden Department of Justice brought a legal challenge against the Lone Star State last year for installing the buoys without federal authorization.

Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta claimed the floating barrier was a threat to navigation and presented a public safety concern. It also risked “damaging U.S. foreign policy” with Mexico over the country’s objection to the barrier.

In 2023, Texas deployed the buoys to address the historic levels of aliens attempting illegal, dangerous—and in some cases, deadly—river crossings. The Biden Administration then sued and demanded Texas remove the buoys and reopen the border. A federal district court granted the Biden Administration a preliminary injunction and ordered the buoys to be removed and a Fifth Circuit panel issued a split decision upholding the order. However, in January 2024, Attorney General Paxton secured an en banc rehearing before the Fifth Circuit.

The full court has now ruled that the district court’s flawed preliminary injunction misapplied the law and was an abuse of the lower court’s authority. The buoy barrier can remain in the river while proceedings continue at the district court level. (Texas Attorney General’s Office)
