1
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. So

2
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 1: Michael Verie Show is on the air.

3
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:38,279
Speaker 2: When I was.

4
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 3: Growing up, my father, who did not get to go

5
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:45,560
Speaker 3: to college, believed that every citizen should read the newspaper,

6
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 3: you should be informed. And he would make reference to

7
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 3: things that were going on, tax increase, a new building

8
00:00:54,480 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 3: going in, a company relocating, somebody being arrested or elected,

9
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 3: or whatever else. And if I wasn't aware of what

10
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 3: was going on, he'd say, was in the paper. You

11
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 3: were supposed to read the paper. You were supposed to

12
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:17,039
Speaker 3: be informed. Because there was a belief that that was

13
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 3: something we could all share. It kept us all aware

14
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 3: of the same things. Somewhere along the way we lost faith,

15
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 3: and rightfully so, in media. And interestingly, as that happened,

16
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 3: technology allowed for the everyman to be the media. The

17
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 3: citizen journalist is reporting and breaking more news today than anyone.

18
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 3: I think of the work that O'Keefe has done over

19
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 3: the last fifteen years, and some of the undercover work

20
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 3: he has done, is absolutely incredible. That is first person

21
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 3: journalism reporting. You have a whole separate group of folks

22
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 3: out there, and Houston is blessed with a few of them.

23
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 3: And probably a lot more that I don't know. Who

24
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 3: are citizen journalists who have an analyst's mind, a good heart,

25
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 3: a good cynical distrust for government, and a healthy skepticism

26
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 3: that they are out to enrich themselves. That's Marissa Hansen,

27
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,959
Speaker 3: That's I guess. Bob Rehack is his name. I've never

28
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,519
Speaker 3: met him. That is the anti flooding guy or the

29
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,839
Speaker 3: flooding become the flooding expert. And one of them whose

30
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 3: name keeps popping up again and again. His name is

31
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 3: Bob Schote, and I see his comments constantly, and he's

32
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 3: one of these people who does what most people don't

33
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 3: want to do and what politicians hope you never will

34
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 3: and certainly the media doesn't do it. He actually goes

35
00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 3: through government documents, he reads, he reviews, He makes posts,

36
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 3: and engages with people and refines his commentary over the time.

37
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 3: I have asked him to be our guest based on

38
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 3: some comments on a subject that he has been offering

39
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 3: commentary as a citizen judgment a journalist on so Bob

40
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 3: showed or common sense Bob as he calls himself and

41
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,639
Speaker 3: seems to be best I can tell. Is our guest welcome.

42
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 4: And a hearty good morning to you. Sir.

43
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 3: You had commented on Christian Minifee, and you have questions

44
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 3: as to his eligibility to hold the county attorney position

45
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 3: while also running for Congress, something nobody seems to be

46
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 3: doing anything about. But your argument seems to me quite credible.

47
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 3: Can you explain that.

48
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 4: Yes, certainly, if you don't mind. Let's talk about what

49
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 4: his office actually is, the county attorney, because I actually

50
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 4: explain it twice to a very intelligent person the other day.

51
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 4: Harris County happened to have a county attorney who's in

52
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 4: charge of all the civil affairs and as a district

53
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 4: attorney who generally handles the criminal affairs. The smaller counties

54
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 4: have one person that does this, so the chief the

55
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 4: county attorney is the chief civil lawyer and represents the

56
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 4: county elected officials and employees in civil matters. The actual actually,

57
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 4: excuse me, also handle consumer protection, fraud issues, environmental issues.

58
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 4: You know, back after the weather events last year, your

59
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,119
Speaker 4: menafees office went after a few gas stations for price gouging. Okay,

60
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 4: that's what they do, or you know, I guess people

61
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 4: could probably get the picture now, So Harry is he

62
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 4: barely get re elected last fall, and then right after

63
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 4: Sylvester Turner's funeral. I don't think the man's casket was

64
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 4: even out of the church. Yet he's outside with a

65
00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 4: couple of microphones in front of him and now and

66
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 4: he wants he's going to run for that seat Congressional

67
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 4: District eighteen, the seat formerly held by Shila Jackson Lee

68
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:12,520
Speaker 4: for what thirty years? Well, by the Texas Constitution, the

69
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 4: county attorney is one of the couple dozen offices where

70
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 4: that triggers an automatic resignation, which was acknowledged the following Monday,

71
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 4: March eighteenth. Multiple media sources carried the story. You know,

72
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 4: of course The Venerable, The Venerable, the Houston Chronicle, all

73
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 4: the TV stations, a couple of the smaller print media,

74
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 4: and of course Houston Public media. Now the funny thing

75
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 4: is kron dot com they're lying on. It was how

76
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 4: many how Christian men if he plans to win, didn't

77
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 4: even talk about the fact that he was the county

78
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 4: attorney and there might be some issues here. So again,

79
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:58,359
Speaker 4: the automatic resignation is triggered now because he's declaring for

80
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 4: an office more than one year and thirty days before

81
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 4: the end of his term. Again, he just started a term,

82
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 4: and I think his term. I'm pretty sure it's four years,

83
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 4: so he barely into a second term. Now, everything else,

84
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 4: I read that it's up to the county commissioners to

85
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 4: appoint an interim or acting county attorney. And frankly, the

86
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 4: only thing I found on that was Article five, Section

87
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,479
Speaker 4: twenty one in the state Constitution that gives commissioners court

88
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 4: the power to a point where there is no criminal

89
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 4: da So in my mind, and again I'm not a

90
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 4: legal expert, never played a lawyer on TV, I don't

91
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 4: see it seems to be kind of vague. But in

92
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:52,919
Speaker 4: any case, it's been just now over four months. So

93
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 4: I got on this a couple of weeks ago and

94
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 4: I emailed all four county commissioners and the county Judge

95
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 4: directly produced myself. I'm a resident of Precinct four, but

96
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 4: you know, I want you to know that I'm concerned

97
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 4: and what's going on now. Commissioner Tom Ramsey brought this

98
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 4: to Commissioner's Court twice already and couldn't get a second

99
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 4: on the motion, and the the pushback basically was Rodney

100
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 4: Ellis is happy with what Christian men if he's doing. Sure,

101
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 4: from what I've seen, he's pushing Ellis's agenda, suing Donald Trump, suing,

102
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 4: suing Greg Abbott, suing, doing everything way beyond his scope

103
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 4: of work. So let's, you know, come back to my

104
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 4: notifying of the of our county leaders. Commas R. Ellis's

105
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 4: office responded the same day. You know it's from the office,

106
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 4: no name, no signature, thanked me for my engagement. Commissioner

107
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 4: Ellis stands for integrity, et cetera, et cetera, and then

108
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 4: says that he is he has no plans because mister

109
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 4: Menafie's doing doing a fine job. I finally heard from

110
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 4: Kirk from Thomas ar Brionis a few days later, after

111
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 4: I pushed a couple of responses on Facebook to a

112
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 4: couple of her posts, and.

113
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 3: I guess we'll talk hold on, we'll talk more about

114
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 3: this conductor.

115
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 4: W twenty five package and you get it all fiberglass

116
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,440
Speaker 4: hood with air grabbing scoops. Mit the Michael Berry fucking.

117
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 3: Hood pins susmobile escaped from the ordinary. Enough people are talking,

118
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 3: and enough people are listening and sharing, then they can't

119
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:50,359
Speaker 3: fool you any longer. The fact that the Houston Chronicles

120
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 3: publisher goes bike riding with Rodney Ellis a couple of

121
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 3: times a week, and they plan out, all right, we're

122
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 3: gonna redistrict Jack Cagle out of that seat. We'll put

123
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 3: Leslie Brioni's in there, and then we'll put this person

124
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 3: over here, and we'll do this, and we'll write this

125
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 3: article and we'll run this, and we'll do this, and

126
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 3: we'll put this person in this position, and we'll do

127
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 3: the elevate strategies, and we'll put the we'll kick kim

128
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 3: Ogg out and we'll put this person in after we've

129
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 3: already put kim Ogg in there. So what ends up

130
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 3: happening is in a dearth of information the public can't

131
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 3: ever gather, social media, for all the ills we hear of,

132
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 3: it has ended up being a powerful way to connect,

133
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 3: to share, to grow, to empower, to strengthen. He writes

134
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 3: under the name common Sense Bob. His name is Bob

135
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 3: showed Bob. I'm just going to turn off my microphone

136
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 3: and let you continue, because you had a good flow

137
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 3: going there.

138
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 4: Take it away, Okay. You know it's funny you mentioned

139
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 4: elevates strategies and you might have covered this yesterday. But

140
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 4: that Felicity prayer. She's running for HISD school board.

141
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 3: Can you believe that she has no shame?

142
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. Anyway back to the Commissioner's court, I was

143
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,719
Speaker 4: kind of rambling there, but yeah, the disturb me thing

144
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 4: is the namby Pamby responses I received from Brionas and

145
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 4: Hidalgo Garcia was crickets. Tom Ramsay gave me the courtesy

146
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 4: of a response from his personal email and said, you know, Bob,

147
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 4: I just can't I just can't get these folks to

148
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 4: move on it. Word on the street is they're not

149
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,079
Speaker 4: gonna do anything till October, which is a day imn

150
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 4: Shane because I think it's a conflict of interest. I mean,

151
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 4: this isn't just a matter of moving the guy out

152
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 4: of the office. But if you look at a social

153
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 4: media post that I did this morning, I talent. It

154
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 4: went through his past twenty x posts. Okay, zero had

155
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 4: to do with county business. Four had to do with

156
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 4: what I call, you know, neutral of personal stuff, something

157
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:39,559
Speaker 4: about basketball and whatever. Sixteen sixteen to the twenty had

158
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 4: to do with his congressional campaign, and his pined tweet

159
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:47,679
Speaker 4: even says I'm running for Congress. So I'm I'm going

160
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 4: to appear at Commissioner's Court on August seventh at ten am,

161
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 4: and I encourage others to do so as well. If

162
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 4: you want to speak, great, sign up for a minute.

163
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,559
Speaker 4: You've got to do it before nine o'clock that morning.

164
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 4: You can do it online. You can submit comments online

165
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 4: if you go to the website, which is Harris County,

166
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 4: t X dot gov. Go to Commissioner's Court and his

167
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 4: information there, submit, you know, submit your comments online and

168
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 4: just let him know this is this is kind of crazy. Yeah,

169
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 4: there's a I think there's a couple of potential conflicts

170
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 4: of interest that need to be addressed. For example, from

171
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 4: who is he accepting contributions for for his congressional race

172
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 4: while he's serving his county attorney? And also, you know,

173
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 4: in this matter, if he's the attorney for the county,

174
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,440
Speaker 4: who's advising the Commissioner's court has to be him, right,

175
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 4: So gosh, folks, just just do the right thing. If

176
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 4: I think it was in Ellis's response to me that

177
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,719
Speaker 4: he's doing a wonderful job, YadA YadA, Well if he's

178
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,560
Speaker 4: doing such a wonderful job, he certainly has over the

179
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 4: over the four and a half years has developed a

180
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 4: deputy or two who can take over the job. You know,

181
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 4: they do so much through outside firms anyway, and it's

182
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 4: not like, you know, this is a five thousand resident

183
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 4: county where you know, the guy's got to sweep the

184
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 4: floor and lock the door where he leaves at night.

185
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 4: So you know, let's let you know, let's let's get

186
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 4: on with this. And that's I think about all I

187
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 4: have to say on it. That Like again, the next

188
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,959
Speaker 4: Commission's Court meeting, or as I like to call it,

189
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 4: Commissar's Court. It's Thursday, August seventh, ten am, one thousand

190
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 4: and one preston the County Administration Building for Ust floor.

191
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 4: If you if you'd like to speak registered for nine am.

192
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 4: You just want to come and sit in the uh

193
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 4: in the gallery. That's great too, because they're going to

194
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 4: speak on this and also on a subject I'm creating

195
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 4: calling not one cent to combat Lena Hidalgo's latest scam

196
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 4: of adding a She wants to add a penny to

197
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 4: our to our tax, not just a penny, but a

198
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 4: penny on one thousand dollars valuation to continue childcare programs

199
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,840
Speaker 4: that were started with our for funds. Yeah, it's not

200
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 4: like we don't have enough schools, churches, private organizations, non

201
00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 4: government organizations that run after school and children's This is

202
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 4: just another scam, another way to get more money out

203
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 4: of our pocket. And if you want more information, if

204
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 4: you know my mentioning, I think you kind of already did.

205
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 4: Michael on X, I am common sense. Bob at Bob

206
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 4: Choke C H O A T E fifty four, easier

207
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 4: to find and happy to communicate me all there, Bob.

208
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,199
Speaker 3: Thank you very much a man. Keep up the great work.

209
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 3: You know, thanks for the call. It is uh. It

210
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 3: is interesting to me to read through some of the

211
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:38,319
Speaker 3: social media feeds that I do and see how many

212
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 3: people out there are extremely well informed of what's going on.

213
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 3: Some focus, some folks focus. Some folks focus on city

214
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,679
Speaker 3: of Houston, some on the county, some on Metro, some

215
00:13:54,840 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 3: on the flood control, some on state legislature. Elected are

216
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 3: counting on you not paying attention. They're counting on you

217
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:08,200
Speaker 3: not noticing how many tax cuts, I mean, how many

218
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 3: tax increases they've piled one on the other. They're counting

219
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 3: on you not noticing when they talk about wanting to

220
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 3: cut taxes that they have a business that is in

221
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 3: the process of protesting taxes, so higher taxes are actually

222
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 3: good for their business. They're counting on you not noticing

223
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 3: that for every time they're quoted in the news being

224
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 3: opposed to something, they've never actually introduced a provision to

225
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 3: stop it. And what they're counting on is kind of

226
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:45,480
Speaker 3: a drive by consumer voter that you will only notice

227
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 3: that that person is always saying good things and not

228
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 3: notice that that person is never actually following through no

229
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 3: concrete action. I get nasty emails from people when I

230
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 3: criticize Greg Abba, and it's from people who I'm a Republican. Michael,

231
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 3: how come you to criticize Abbit focus on the Democrats.

232
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 3: The Democrats aren't in control of the House, the Senate,

233
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 3: and the governor's office. The five most jerrymandered congressional districts

234
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 3: in the country, as released by the liberal Washington Post,

235
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 3: of all things, the five most jerrymandered districts. Two of

236
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 3: them were in Texas. Just undo the evil that was

237
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 3: done there. And Greg Abbott has the opportunity, hey, if

238
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 3: he just gets those two redistricted so that they're not

239
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 3: discriminatory against voters in that region to water down their vote,

240
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 3: which is exactly what Rodney did to kick Cactus Jack

241
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 3: Kegle out of office. If he does that, then hey,

242
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 3: I'll applaud him. But you got to have folks. This

243
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 3: is why I rely on Rachel Palmer Hooper so much.

244
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 3: You got to have folks that dig in and actually

245
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 3: look at what's happening and follow this stuff for years

246
00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 3: and go to these darn things that nobody wants to

247
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 3: go to, and then report on it. Got a message

248
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 3: from a woman named Amy Stoker, Amy Lee Stoker. She said,

249
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 3: I'm not sure how Pat Green got up and performed

250
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 3: Wave on wave after everything he lost in the flood.

251
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:28,520
Speaker 3: Of course, his brother, his brother's wife, their children. Here

252
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,360
Speaker 3: are the lyrics to the song. I'm not sure I'll

253
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 3: ever hear the song the same way again. And then

254
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 3: she posted a video of him singing it at the

255
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 3: Golden Nugget back a few days ago. It's amazing he

256
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 3: could have never imagined what would happen in his life,

257
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 3: and then his biggest song would be about the water

258
00:16:55,040 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 3: washing over you. It's a crazy, crazy ride we're on.

259
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. Yeah, she's attractive from moment, What

260
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:12,199
Speaker 3: does that matter? I Uh, well, you know, why'd you

261
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 3: ask me that?

262
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 5: Yeah?

263
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 3: You know, I always click on the profile pick just

264
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 3: to see what people look like.

265
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 4: You know, she looks like.

266
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 3: Interestingly, have you seen.

267
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: Dexter?

268
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:28,679
Speaker 3: Did you ever watch Dexter? Do you remember the sister

269
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 3: Dexter sister? Yeah, she looks just like that woman. She's tall,

270
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 3: she kind of has the same smile, same face. Yeah,

271
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 3: that's more your look than mind, that's what she looks like.

272
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 3: Do you know that they played brother sister in that

273
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 3: TV show and they were married in real life? Did

274
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 3: you know that that? I'd have to be weird? And

275
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 3: then and then they get divorced in the middle of

276
00:17:56,240 --> 00:18:01,760
Speaker 3: filming and continue on. I guess that's why maybe she's

277
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 3: not in any of the later stuff. I'm embarrassed to

278
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 3: say that there's one now called Dexter the Resurrection. So

279
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 3: Dexter was one of my favorite shows for a long time.

280
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 3: Never missed it. And then and then they finished it

281
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 3: after five season. It had jumped the shark. And then

282
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 3: they waited about ten years and all of a sudden, poop,

283
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 3: it's it's Dexter again. And I think they've done three

284
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:28,879
Speaker 3: since then, they've done three new Dexter new Blood Dexter,

285
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 3: Dexter resurrected Dexter jumps, the shark kills, it eats it.

286
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 3: I mean it's it's uh it is uh it was,

287
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 3: it's it's gone too far and I still can't stop

288
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 3: watching it. The worst part is I still cannot stop

289
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 3: watching it. A bit of a setback. I don't want

290
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,639
Speaker 3: to say bad news because I'm still hopeful for the

291
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 3: for the best. But we told you the other day

292
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 3: about the seventeen year old young man Jarvis Spiers football

293
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 3: player suffered he stroke and I went into Rabdo and

294
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 3: Mike wil being hospitalized, and this happens more than you realize.

295
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 3: And please make sure if your young ones are out

296
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:15,440
Speaker 3: playing soccer, football, whatever they're doing outdoors, that they are

297
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 3: hydrating because this is a more common occurrence and people

298
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,439
Speaker 3: realize you don't want to have to. You know your

299
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,119
Speaker 3: kid is doing something wholesome like playing sports, and all

300
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,119
Speaker 3: of a sudden you're hospitalizing. This kid was in a

301
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 3: coma and then it looked like he was coming out

302
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 3: and he's suffered another setback. This is clip number eighteen

303
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 3: Ramon Roeblis Khou eleven.

306
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 6: while training.

307
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 7: Jarvis Spires appeared to be on the road to recovery

308
00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:50,159
Speaker 7: before a sudden and frightening setback over the weekend.

309
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 6: Reagulera talked to Jarvis's mother last week when he woke

310
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,439
Speaker 6: up from the first coma. Tonight, Maria talked with his

311
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 6: mother again to find out what happened here. She's live

312
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 6: in the medical center.

313
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 7: Maria, Yeah, letting me after me Jarvis's mother here last week.

314
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 7: I just reached out today to see how he was doing,

315
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 7: hoping that he'd be home by now. But that's when

316
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 7: she told me that his health took a sudden turn

317
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 7: for the worst, taking everyone by surprise. The road to

318
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 7: recovery was starting to look clear. Now everything changed for

319
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 7: Jarvis Spires when, at seventeen years old, Jarvis, a Sidefair

320
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 7: ISD football player, has over a dozen offers from different colleges,

321
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 7: but he's in a medically induced coma again right now.

322
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 7: They're just doing a plethora of tests. It started July fifth,

323
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 7: when Jarvis suffered a heat stroke during an outdoor work

324
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 7: out with a personal trainer. He spent nine days in

325
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 7: a coma, woke up. Then over the weekend his health

326
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 7: took a drastic turn. His mom says he had trouble breathing,

327
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 7: a fever. Then doctors found internal bleeding. They had to

328
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 7: go out into emergency surgery to find the boys of

329
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 7: bleeding was coming from and.

330
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 4: To stop the bleeding.

331
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 7: It was like a light switch that flipped and here

332
00:20:57,920 --> 00:20:58,880
Speaker 7: we are again.

333
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 8: It's been such a roll of close to ride or

334
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 8: are you doing?

335
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 7: Emotionally?

336
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 8: Mentally, I'm hanging in there, you know, at the best

337
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 8: that I can during a time like this, It's hard.

338
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 7: Experts tell us heatstrokes can be complicated and tough to

339
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 7: recover from.

340
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 2: Heath stroke can happen, usually over the time period of

341
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 2: several hours.

342
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 7: Doctor Neil Gandhi is the assistant medical director with Houston

343
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,879
Speaker 7: Methodist Ears. He says the elderly and those under the

344
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 7: age of seventeen are most vulnerable. When should someone call

345
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 7: nine to one one.

346
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 2: To think confusion, if you're passing out, if you stop sweating,

347
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 2: if you're outdoors and your skin becomes extremely dry. Also

348
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 2: if you're having any other neurological symptoms, think seizures. Any

349
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 2: of those issues would require immediate medical attention.

350
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 7: As Jarvis continues to fight, his family holds on to

351
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:52,239
Speaker 7: faith all of this just a domino effect from a

352
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 7: severe heat stroke. His family is now waiting and praying,

353
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 7: hoping for Jarvis to pull through. We're told that his

354
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,600

420
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 3: There was such a problem with women having babies they

421
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 3: didn't want to keep throwing them in the trash, that

422
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,119
Speaker 3: it became the case that you could take your baby

423
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 3: to a fire station, leave it, no questions asked, and

424
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 3: the baby would be cared for and placed with a

425
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 3: family that wanted to raise the baby, which makes the

426
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 3: following story that much more disturbing. A woman charged after

433
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,159

Speaker 11: to the child at home, but when she noticed the

437
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 11: infant was no longer breathing, she got really scared and

438
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 11: she put the infant inside of a trash bag. She

439
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 11: now faces fifty thousand dollars bond.

440
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 3: I more proof that Houston has transformed into Detroit and Chicago.

441
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,560

00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 3: their homes the story from ABC thirteen.

00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 8: Also tonight.

445
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,159
Speaker 3: More victims are coming forward saying their homes and cars

446
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 3: were hit by bullets during a shooting spree.

447
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,399
Speaker 4: We were first to bring in this story last weekend.

448
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 7: Tonight, we're learning several homes were hit multiple times.

449
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 6: ABC thirteen's Luke Jones live with the details tonight Luke.

450
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,400
Speaker 10: Yeah, and on the surface, you'd think maybe this is targeted.

451
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 10: Will the victims say no, at least not according to

452
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 10: the information they have available. They don't recognize the suspects

453
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 10: in these cases, and they say they've never done anything

454
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,920
Speaker 10: that would cause someone to want to shoot their houses.

455
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 10: A Mission Band home riddled with bullet holes, car windows

456
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,199
Speaker 10: shot out after five shootings. The homeowner says, all in

457
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 10: the early morning hours. The same thing happened at this

458
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 10: home in a leaf just once on May first, but

459
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,879
Speaker 10: it was enough to send the woman inside scrambling for cover.

460
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 8: All the thing. You just hear the glass shuttering.

461
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 10: You could see a man walking up a surveillance video firing.

462
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,120
Speaker 10: What the victims says, we're about a dozen bullets into

463
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 10: her house and car a.

464
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 8: Little bit more than half a foot next to like

465
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,399
Speaker 8: where my pillow is, where leay my head. One of

466
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 8: the bullets went in through there.
