Texas is one of the more conservative states in the country. And they have tried to pour all the Democrats have tried to pour money and money and money and money and money into Texas.
Remember, turn Texas blue, the Texas Blue Project. And it failed miserably, pouring hundreds of millions of dollars, almost billions of dollars. And Texas delivered a triumphant victory for President Donald Trump, a 16, 14 point victories, unthinkable margins. But what good is a 14 point victory for President Trump in Texas when you have Republicans that are going to work with Democrats to elect a speaker of the House? Joining us now is Abraham George, chairman of the Republican Party of Texas. Abraham, welcome to the program. Abraham, please educate our audience on what is happening in the great state of Texas.
Thank you for having me here. Tomorrow is the speaker's race here in the state of Texas, Texas House. And what we usually have for the last decade or so, a small group of Republicans going to Democrats, which is the minority party here. This time it is 62 members from the Democrat side, 88 from our side. Some Republicans will partner with the Democrats to choose a moderate or a rhino Republican, for lack of a better term, to put as a speaker. Then they will go and kill all the conservative bills in Texas House. The Texas Senate is very conservative. Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick and the group will pass good legislation. One of the legislation that got killed last time is the Chinese Communist Party and the Chinese government is buying land in Texas, especially around our military bases. And there was a bill to stop that. And some of the Republicans, along with all of the Democrats, said it's a racist bill and we're going to kill it. And they killed it. Now we have a national security issue in Texas.
The last year, we talked about voter protection while Biden was in office. And Texas did what we can do, but it could have been a lot better if we had a conservative speaker. This is the same group who went and impeached the Texas attorney general. So this year, the party said, if you're not going to support a real Republican speaker— who will support reforms in Texas House by putting only Republicans in committee chairmanship. That's another thing they do. They put Democrats in committee chairmanships and give a lot more power to Democrats than they deserve in Texas.
