Texas Border Alert – Very Concerning
That governor, Democrat Gina Hinojosa, has not said whether Operation Lone Star will survive her arrival.
Campaign strategy guides
Hinojosa, a state representative from Austin, unseated three-term Republican Gov. Greg Abbott on Tuesday. She will become the first Democrat to hold the office since Ann Richards.
Abbott created Operation Lone Star in 2021, with Joe Biden in the White House.
Texas taxpayers have since poured more than $11 billion into it, and the program has made the state a leading partner in federal immigration enforcement.
Abbott’s administration also strung razor wire, sent state personnel to the line and bused migrants to Democratic-led cities across the country.
Hinojosa opposed the program from its start. She voted against its initial funding, and she has attacked Abbott’s management of it repeatedly since.
She has not promised to shut it down.
“As governor, I’ll put in the work to secure the border, not waste working Texans’ money on political theater,” Hinojosa said.
In a later interview, she declined to name a single border-security expense she would cut.
She pointed instead to what she described as billions spent prosecuting migrants for trespassing, while taxpayers also paid for their legal representation.
“Public safety shouldn’t be a political stunt,” Hinojosa said of her approach to the border
“I will spend the money it takes to keep our community safe, not for political theater,” she added.
Political commentary podcast
Some of her positions are firm. Hinojosa opposes new border-wall construction in the Big Bend region and argues that barriers there are unnecessary.
She has also sharply criticized Immigration and Customs Enforcement, along with Texas’ cooperation in certain federal immigration operations.
She previously accused Abbott of turning Texas into a “staging ground” for federal enforcement operations that she said harmed families and benefited political donors.
Her record includes praise for the opposing party’s president, too.
NewsNation reported that Hinojosa has acknowledged that Trump administration policies substantially reduced illegal crossings.

PEACE AT LAST! Nobody Expected THIS! Trump Doubles Down on Hegseth
Trifecta Agenda
NEED TO KNOW: Hot off winning a trifecta for the first time in more than 30 years, Gov. Josh Shapiro and Democratic legislative leaders on Wednesday laid out a vision for rapid action they say will offer relief amid rising costs and restore trust in government. Read Spotlight PA’s full story →
GOOD TO KNOW: Flanked by Lt. Gov. Austin Davis, top lawmakers, and four Democrats who flipped state Senate seats, Shapiro said the party will soon announce a policy agenda for the first 100 days of governing. He did not provide an exhaustive list, but he said he can “guarantee” they’ll accomplish the following: “We will fund mass transit. We will raise the minimum wage. We will make sure that women have a right to reproductive freedom here in this commonwealth. We will build more housing. We will allow survivors of abuse the ability to confront their abusers in court.”
There are many other policies that Democrats want to address. Lawmakers who talked to Spotlight PA named paid family leave, legalizing recreational cannabis, stricter rules for data centers, expanding voting rights, and allowing citizen-led referenda as additional issues they wish to tackle.
IN THE KNOW: In a statement, state House Minority Leader Jesse Topper (R., Bedford) rejected the notion that Democrats’ trifecta means they have a blank policy check. Instead, he argued that the results only indicated “dissatisfaction with the national direction.”
“The election results were not a mandate to run the far-left, collectivist wishlist broadcast by this nascent Democrat trifecta,” Topper said. “If this is the road they are determined to go down, they will find not only myself and my caucus in opposition, but also every Pennsylvanian who wants their freedom and their way of life protected from radical government intervention.”
A spokesperson for state Senate Majority Leader Joe Pittman (R., Indiana) did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the election results or what they mean for his leadership of the caucus.
ELECTION NIGHT LIVE: Who Controls Congress? | 2026 Midterm Results FROM TUESDAY
HAT HAPPENS NOW? Trump and Vance RESPOND BIG!
Ron DeSantis GOES NUCLEAR on Spineless Senate Republicans for SQUANDERING Two Years of GOP Control
Ron DeSantis GOES NUCLEAR on Spineless Senate Republicans for SQUANDERING Two Years of GOP Control
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis unleashed a blistering attack on Republican leadership following Tuesday’s disastrous midterm elections, accusing GOP lawmakers of squandering their opportunity to deliver sweeping conservative reforms while Republicans controlled the White House and both chambers of Congress.
During an appearance with Fox News host Laura Ingraham, DeSantis ripped into Senate Republicans for failing to pursue an aggressive immigration agenda, codify President Donald Trump’s executive orders, and confront federal courts that have obstructed the administration’s deportation efforts.
His message was unmistakable: Republicans were handed a historic opportunity to reshape the country, and they blew it.
And now, with Democrats having captured both chambers of Congress in the November 3 midterms, that opportunity is slipping away.
Watching Ron DeSantis on the news shows, he has definitely found his sea legs on communicating with the media. He is bringing a level of gravitas that was missing in 2024.
Glad to see it. I’ve always thought he would make an outstanding President of the United States
.
Nov 3rd was exactly the result Thune had hoped for. He’s not incompetent. This was intentional sabotage of the Trump presidency.
Any “influencers” blackpilling over this midterm loss like it’s the “end of America” need to take a week off.
This is exactly the strong medicine the GOP needed to clean up our act by 2028. Wouldn’t you rather lose now than then?
Imagine Democrats controlling Congress AND the White House?
My God, we would never recover.
Election Fraud Facts. How the 2026 Mid Terms were rigged for democrats.
People who expect democrats to fix everything are insane. Expecting democrats to fix things is like expecting an arsonist to put out the fire he started
This why we need voter ID and paper ballots in all states and equipment that doesnt break down only in republican strong precincts. In my area, after 8pm tuesday, 15 precincts reported problems with machines, primarily in republican strong areas.
Who really won on tuesday? Some Americans, are embracing socialism/communism. This will destroy America as we j own it. Already our enemies are bragging that the death of America has begun.
What happened yesterday? Democrats sweep 2026 Mid Terms
Strangely our odds of winning the White House, House and Senate in 2028 just increased dramatically!
If we had limped in with our weak Congress vs Democrats promising free everything then, we would have lost.
Now for two years America will see the Democrat promises are lies and won’t fall for them in 28.
This is all part of God’s plan to win 2028 with a refreshed, better brand of GOP.
I realized this before the election but said nothing lest I be blamed for low turnout.
The amazing part in all of this is that the Democrat victory on November 3rd may lead to the end of the Democrat Party.
It is one thing to promise socialism – it is another to DO socialism.
And now, fate will force Democrats to DO socialism and all of America will see the nightmare behind that failed ideology in realtime.
If they had not won both houses, this would not have been possible.
God works in mysterious ways.
Many people today are wondering what the heck happened yesterday. First of all, historically, the party in power loses the mid terms. This is nothing new.
For the politically illiterate: 4 times since the 1980s, the party in charge has been shellacked in the mid terms that followed. It happened to Reagan, Clinton, Obama and now Trump. Everytime the party who lost the mid terms came back to be relected. Reagan won in a landslide in 1984. , this may help educate you. https://www.wlky.com/…/midterm-elections…/73998751 Wait until 2028. Americans will be sick ot the classic Democrat do nothing agenda but trash Trump and will vote enmasse to elect the republican candidate, probably J. D. Vance or DeSantis and will give the house and the senate back to the republicans.
Part of the blame lies on the republicans. Where were they in passing the save America act? Where were they prior to the Mid terms? Where was Thune? MIA They put all the weight on Trump and he carried it well doing 32 rallies in 22 days. Which is incredible for anyone let alone a 80 yr old.
I had high hopes for Stacy Garrity. She, like Trump worked her butt off doing rallies from Erie to Philadelphia, From Scranton To Pittsburg, From State College to Easton and all points in between. Very little was known about Stacy by the masses. She gave it a huge effort. I still contend that Stacy was the be choice. I cringe thinking that we have 4 more years of Sh’tpiro plus in PA. the democrats also hold the PA Senate and the PA House. Let’s see what if anything they do.
I’ve been beating to death on Facebook and 30 seconds in Press-Enterprise about the high price of gas and t gas tax in Pa compared to other states and all I keep hearing is that it is not Sh’tpiro’s fault. He needs approval. Well now he can get it. Let’s see what if anything they do.
Regarding Stacy, She showed real class with her concession speech and wished Shapiro weLL. moreover, she wished the best for PA and said the best years are ahead.
I am curious as to why Stacy’s scheduled interview with Sean Hannity last week was abruptly canceled. Why? Was this Murdoch’s doing? He fired Tucker Carlson for releasing information on Fox that J6 was a sham and the fault lies with the democrats not Trump. More recently, he fired Maria Bontenomo when she was going to release information that the 2020 election was rigged for Biden. So its possible he threatened Sean Hannity if he put Stacy on his TV show.
I believe it was close between Stacy and Sh’tpiro perhaps too close.
And BTW, why did they call a win for Shapiro with only 8% of the vote in and while people still had time to vote? It was rigged for Sh’tpiro. Its as simple as that. Now all of us Pennsylvanians have to be stuck with 4 more years of Sh’tpiro.
God help us all.
GOD help PA!!!!!!!!!!!!

They Can’t BELIEVE What Just Happened to the Democrats!!!
Gov. Shapiro, Stacy Garrity talk about campaign and what they’d do with a trifecta
tacy Garrity full interview: Republican looks to unseat Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro
Have you noticed what Josh Shapiro’s TV ads are about?
They’re not about his record. They’re not about what he’s done for Pennsylvania.
They’re not about the economy, your utility bills, or your kids’ education.
They’re attack ads. Because his record is the one thing he can’t put on television.
Think about what Shapiro would have to say if he ran on his actual record:
Pennsylvania’s economy dropped to 47th in the nation on his watch
A federal whistleblower just accused his administration of wasting taxpayer money and firing the woman who spoke up
He took $5 million from out-of-state data center developers, cheerleaded their projects, then flip-flopped when voters got angry
That’s not a record you can run on. So he’s spending millions trying to make sure you never hear about it.
Vote for Stacy Garrity for Pennsylvania November 3rd

Garrity will unleash Pennsylvania energy and get rid of burdensome fees that drive up your energy bills. And she will stop fraud in our Commonwealth and pass balanced budgets on time to ensure your money works for your community.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
Pennsylvania can be better.

Garrity discusses governor campaign, gas tax, and data centers
If elected, Republican gubernatorial candidate Stacy Garrity said she’d look to be a more active partner in budget negotiations and use resources like the Rainy Day Fund to offset a temporary suspension of the gas tax.
Republican gubernatorial candidate and state Treasurer Stacy Garrity says she would take a more active role in budget negotiations, reduce state agency spending and give local governments greater control over data center development if elected governor.
Garrity criticizes Shapiro over late budgets
Garrity, a retired U.S. Army Reserve colonel, is seeking to defeat Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro and give Republicans their first Pennsylvania gubernatorial victory in more than a decade.
“We have so many blessings in this commonwealth,” Garrity said in an interview with WGAL. “We have the best, hardest-working people.”
As Election Day approaches, Garrity said she is hearing from Pennsylvanians who want a change after three terms of Democratic leadership. She criticized Shapiro over four late budgets enacted while working with a divided Legislature.
“What a real leader does is get all the stakeholders around the table and work it out,” Garrity said. “You roll up your sleeves, and you get to work.”
Plans for agency spending and state reserves
Garrity said she would become more directly involved in budget negotiations, particularly as Pennsylvania faces rising health care and social service costs. She said state agencies could find savings of 3% to 5% and argued that the state could do more to identify fraud and improper payments.
“I would really examine where these payments are going,” Garrity said. “You can look to see where you have duplicative payments at the same address — simple things like that.”
She pointed to payment errors in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program as an example.
Garrity also criticized Shapiro’s proposals to use state reserves, including the Rainy Day Fund, to support Pennsylvania’s growing annual budget. However, she said she would consider using reserves to temporarily suspend the state taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel.
“I do think an appropriate use of the Rainy Day Fund could be to suspend the gas tax and the diesel tax for a specific period of time,” Garrity said.
Asked how that would differ from using reserves to close a budget gap, Garrity said a temporary tax suspension would provide direct relief to residents.
“Prices are high, and families are hurting,” she said. “If you want to suspend that for two or three months, it’s totally different from plugging a budget hole.”
Skill games position and campaign contribution
Garrity also addressed the debate over skill games, which have been ruled illegal slot machines. She said a proposed 52% tax backed by Shapiro was too high and argued that the governor should have called a special legislative session before the court ruling took effect.
“This is going to cost Pennsylvanians thousands of jobs, and they were paying taxes,” Garrity said. “To me, this is such a missed opportunity to come up with some sort of win-win. I would have had some sort of flat-dollar fee per machine.”
Campaign finance records filed after the interview showed Garrity’s campaign received $600,000 from the Pennsylvania Amusement and Music Machine Association, which represents skill game operators and businesses that offer the machines.
Garrity’s campaign did not respond to a request for comment about the contribution. The donation comes as Garrity faces a significant fundraising disadvantage in the race
Garrity calls for local control of data centers
On another major campaign issue, Garrity called for an undefined “pause” in data center development to give local communities more influence over where the facilities are built.
“I want the control to remain at the local level,” she said. “Why would we ever build these on farmland? We have hundreds and hundreds of brownfield sites, blighted areas and industrial sites with infrastructure around them. There’s no reason to build these next to residential areas or precious farmland.”
An extended version of WGAL’s interview with Garrity will air next week on News 8 at 7: The Thread, including her views on government transparency and other issues facing Pennsylvania voters.
Pennsylvania! This is your Republican Trump endorsed line up!

Halloween is just around the corner, but everyday is scary with Shady Josh Shapiro as our Governor.
He wants you to believe he’s a good Governor, but when you pull down the mask, you find the truth. Whether it’s economics, like Pennsylvania’s economy ranking 47th in the nation and presiding over soaring energy prices, or whether it’s his list of scandals, like paying out $300k in a taxpayer-funded sexual harassment case in his office, and continually silencing whistleblowers, he makes Pennsylvania’s future terrifying. He’s all tricks and no treats. Let’s make this the last Halloween having to deal with Shady Shapiro as our Governor.
Another dummycrat for pennsylvanians to put on their do not vote for list.
Janelle Stelson is as self-serving as it gets. 
In 2024, when she ran against Congressman Perry, she COULDN’T EVEN VOTE FOR HERSELF because she was living in her Manheim Township home, which is 25+ miles outside the 10th Congressional District.
Now, she rented a “home” in the 10th District to keep up appearances, but she still owns her Manheim Township home, which is her primary residence, a half-hour away from the constituents she wants to represent. 
The people of the district don’t need someone who doesn’t understand their issues or their community. They need someone who truly represents their interests in Washington.
Vote for Congressman Scott Perry on or before November 3rd!
