looks like mattress mack's elections website is live. the GOP mega donor is trying to collect stories of disenfranchised voters in the houston (harris county) november election.
San Russek had the courage to actually investigate and publish the hate and extremism behind Mattress Mack. The Chronicle should take notes, as they tried and just whitewashed his story last year.
Nice job.
Mattress Mack's antics have made him a Houston icon, but beneath the PR fluff is a far-right megadonor who calls the 60s-era Great Society reforms an "abysmal failure." For

Taylor’s blog, filled with conspiracies and GOP funded opposition research is here:
He was recently spotted at a rally with Dr. Steven Hotze, who has been indicted for his role in an alleged assault of a man driving a truck be claimed contained ballots.
We’re hearing reports that Aubrey Taylor - a political operative and election denier has shown up and physically attacked Sheila Jackson-Lee’s campaign chairman at his office. More as we’re able to confirm.

Nothing to see here. Just the Harris County republican party asking voters for their voter unique identifier on a web page made to look like a non-profit or non partisan affiliated web site.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this. The Chronicle is a valuable pillar of our community and one of the few remaining sources of reliable news and civil discourse in Houston. We’re relieved and grateful that you remain committed to those values.

Unreal.
Today, an attorney for Judge Craft outed a GOP witness in the trial to overturn the Harris County election for her connections to “True the Vote” - a national election denial organization with connections to the Jan. 6 insurrection.
Today is Day 2 of the 1st Harris County election contest trial. I'll be doing less live tweeting today as I'm in and out, but you can watch the live stream here if you don't want to rely on a journalist's reinterpretation of events.
New:
@HoustonChron

@chron
Does this represent your values?
Alex Rosen, the guy who is pictured in this video repeatedly saying the N-word with a hard R, visited
@HoustonChron
to confront a reporter for her tweets today. After he didn't find her, he posted a video claiming he was "reciting rap lyrics" and saying the word "vinegar."
Per this report,
@AlexMealerTX

Alex Mealer just retweeted that she hopes Lina Hidalgo gets better….literally just a few days after publicly shaming and denigrating her her mental health and “panic attacks.” Listen for yourself:
Someone leaked kids’ medical records from a Houston hospital to right wing activists. Instead of helping victims,
@KenPaxtonTX
is investigating the hospital, pushing phony claims that gender affirming care is child abuse
The leaker must be punished & the kids must be protected.

Alex Mealer expressed outrage - OUTRAGE - over being linked to Trump during her campaign for judge. Now she’s literally attending events with the Trump family and openly shilling and raising money for an indicted election denier who sought to overturn a free and fair election.
just six months after losing, Mealer’s extreme positions are coming into clearer focus. And she tweets this poison the same day
@PeterHotez
was accosted at his home by another anti-vaxxer.
Harris county residents dodged a bullet with this one.
Here's Alex Mealer, 2022 GOP candidate for Harris County judge, calling Texans for Strong Borders president Chris Russo a friend 👇
Alarming. Russo drove white supremacist Nick Fuentes to TX meeting. & Strong Borders' racism & extremism were clear before this photo. 🧵
#txlege
Looks like the Harris County GOP wish to “have the truth come out” about the 2022 election is coming true….their conspiracies are falling apart when questioned under oath. Example:
The Epoch Times is also intertwined with Shen Yun, which recently performed in Houston and other Texas cities. They spends millions on marketing with thousands of local businesses unwittingly displaying their ads. To what extent is Shen Yun subsidizing this extremist propaganda?
Just left a gas station where The Epoch Times, a far-right website that traffics in anti-vax and apocalypse conspiracies, is being advertised alongside mainstream media. Been seeing it around A LOT recently.
Gross men who believe women belong in heels. Exhibit A.
