When Democrat lawmakers fled the State of Texas and headed to Chicago, Illinois, yesterday (Sunday, July 3, 2025), they claimed to be modern-day freedom fighters, but are they fighting, or swinging in the wind?
“So basically, you're running from the law, but you're telling them where you're going. Lol,” stated former prizefighter turned businessman Eric Carr, on a post published by Hall of Fame Broadcaster Ralph Cooper. When you think about Eric Carr's question, it doesn't really make much sense what the Democrats are doing, in reality.
"TRUTH BOMB."
On Friday, August 1, 2025, Democrat State Rep. Senfronia
Thompson (HD-141) boldly and courageously stated that it was not a requirement for State
Representatives to "BREAK QUORUM" and that she was responsible for
herself. She also noted that the newly drawn "CONGRESSIONAL MAPS"
will benefit minority groups by giving them greater representation.
For the record, I totally agree with State Rep. Senfronia Thompson in her belief that the “NEW CONGRESSIONAL MAPS” will open up new opportunities for minorities.
As an African American who works with “ELECTED OFFICIALS” from both sides of the aisle, I am keenly aware that there are some “GOOD DEMOCRATS” and there are some “BAD DEMOCRATS,” who don’t give a care about Black people.
On the other
hand, there are some “BAD REPUBLICANS,” and there are some “GOOD REPUBLICANS” who
love Black people and want to see us prosper and flourish.
“Proud
to welcome Rep. Shawn Thierry to the Republican Party,” stated Governor Greg
Abbott, after she fled the Democratic Party, after allegedly being sexually harassed,
bullied, and stalked by a Democratic Party Precinct Chair named Eulundia “Kay”
Shepard.
According to Gov. Abbot, “Democrats abandoned her after she
supported a law I signed to protect Texas children.”
“The radical leftist agenda doesn't align with most Americans,” stated Governor Greg Abbott when he welcomed former State Rep. Shawn Thierry into the Republican Party.
He also said that he looked forward to working with State
Rep. Shawn Thierry to build a brighter future, which started me thinking.
Listen. There is nothing in the Texas Constitution that
prohibits African Americans from running for office as Republicans. In fact,
the notion that African Americans can only win political office in areas where
Blacks are the majority is false.
In fact, Republicans do not vote for candidates based on the
color of their skin. Can I prove what I’m saying? You bet I can. And I can do
so, in a very concise manner, without getting nasty.
On Tuesday. On March 3, 2020, Wesley Hunt, an African American military veteran, ran for the 7th Congressional District of Texas in the Republican Party Primary, where he faced five opponents and won the race without a runoff.
As a refresher, Wesley Hunt received 28,060 votes, for 61.0%
of the vote. Cindy Siegel, the current Harris County Republican Party Chairman, finished second with 12,497 votes, for 27.2%. Maria Espinoza received 2,716
votes, for 5.9%. Kyle Preston received 1,363 votes for 3.0%. Jim Noteware received
937 votes, for 2.0%. And Laique Rehman received 424 votes for 0.9%.
Suppose Republicans are the racists that Democrats claim that they are. How did a “BLACK MAN” named Wesley Hunt win the Republican nomination running
against five opponents on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the race for the 7th
Congressional District of Texas?
Ultimately, Wesley Hunt went on to lose his bid for the 7th
Congressional District of Texas to Democratic Congresswoman Lizzie Pannill
Fletcher by a slim margin, in the Tuesday, November 3, 2020, Presidential
Election.
As a refresher, Lizzy Pannill Fletcher (Democrat) received
159,529 votes, for 50.8% of the vote. Wesley Hunt (Republican) received 149,054
votes, for 47.5%. And Shawn Kelly (Democrat) received 5,542 votes, for 1.8%.
But that’s not all.
After the 38th Congressional District was redrawn, just before the 2022 Midterm Election, instead of taking a defeated attitude, Wesley Hunt said the “NEWLY DRAWN” 38th Congressional District was an opportunity for him to seize upon his dream to become a U.S. Congressman.
According to his website, Wesley Hunt was born and raised in
Houston, TX, in a military family and is a proud St. John's School alumnus.
Upon graduation from St. John's, Wesley accepted an appointment at the United
States Military Academy at West Point.
In 2004, he graduated from West Point and spent eight years
in the Army as an Apache helicopter pilot.
Wesley's service included one deployment to Iraq, where he
flew 55 combat air missions, and two deployments to Saudi Arabia as a
Diplomatic Liaison Officer.
Upon completion of his military service as a Captain, Wesley
attended Cornell University. He earned a Master of Business Administration
(M.B.A.), a Master of Public Administration (M.P.A.), and a Master of
Industrial and Labor Relations (M.I.L.R.).
Wesley has served as a U.S. Congressman since 2023 and sits
on the House Natural Resources and Judiciary Committees.
In addition to his military and Congressional service,
President Trump appointed Wesley to the United States Military Academy Board of
Visitors in 2025.
Wesley is a lifelong conservative and an active community
member who has dedicated his time to military service and volunteer work to
protect our country and improve the Houston area.
He and his wife, Emily, have three children, Victoria, Olivia,
and Willie Parish Hunt II.
“A WINNER’S HEART.”
Instead of Wesley Hunt whining and complaining about his
2020 loss, he picked up the pieces. He pursued his dream of becoming a U.S.
Congressman by running for the newly drawn 38th Congressional
District of Texas in the Tuesday, March 3, 2022, Harris County Republican Party
Primary, against nine opponents, and won without a runoff.
As a refresher, Wesley Hunt received 35,291 votes, for 55.3%.
Mark Ramsey received 19,352 votes, for 30.3%. David Hogan received 3,125 votes,
for 4.9%. Roland Lopez received 2,048 votes, for 3.2%. Brett Guillory received
1,416 votes, for 2.2%. Jerry Ford, Sr., received 997 votes, for 1.6%. Richard
Welch received 633 votes, for 1.0%. Alex Cross received 460 votes, for 0.7%. Damien
Mockus received 249 votes, for 0.4%. And Phillip Covarrubias received 228
votes, for 0.4%, to round out the field.
After securing the Republican nomination, Wesley Hunt (Republican) went on to soundly defeat his Democratic opponent, Duncan Klussman, and his Libertarian opponent, Joel Dejean, to prove that Republicans do not cast their votes based on the color of skin, but rather the content of the character their nominee possesses.
As a refresher, Wesley Hunt received 163,597 votes, for
63.0%. Duncan Klussman received 92,302 votes, for 35.5%. And Joel DeJean
received 3,970 votes, for 1.5%.
What’s remarkable and should serve as an inspiration to
African Americans is that Wesley Hunt, was able to win the 38th
Congressional District, which is currently 50.1% White, 25.9% Hispanic, 10.1%
Asian, 9.6% Black, 3.6% Two or more races, and 0.7% other, according to the
Cook Partisan Voting Index, which is “THE GOLD STANDARD” when it comes to
measuring the demographic breakdowns of Congressional Districts in America.
“HEART OF A CHAMPION.”
COURTROOM BUILT ON INTEGRITY. A LIFE GROUNDED IN
SERVICE.
What about the Democrats? Do they have a version of Wesley
Hunt? The answer is a resounding YES!!! But instead of supporting and embracing their version, they’re allowing “BAT SHIT CRAZY,” Eulundia “Kay” Shepard, the attack dog for Mike Doyle, the corrupt Harris County Democratic Party Chairman, to try to disparage Lieutenant Colonel DaSean Jones’s good name, without anyone checking her.
According to his website, Judge DaSean Jones, a decorated combat veteran with
over 20 years of military service, now seeks his third term as Judge of
Harris County’s 180th Criminal District Court. Raised in a proud family of
veterans, his life has always been anchored in duty —to country,
community, and justice. He brings the discipline of a soldier, the heart of a
public servant, and the steady hand of a seasoned jurist to the courtroom.
Elected in 2018 as the first decorated Army combat veteran and minority to
ever preside over the 180th Court, Judge Jones took office with one clear goal:
to ensure that justice in Harris County would no longer depend on wealth,
wardrobe, or social connections. Since then, he’s made good on that
promise—presiding over nearly 6,200 felony cases and 70 jury trials, while
building a courtroom defined by fairness, not favoritism.
DISTINGUISHED MILITARY SERVICE.
Judge Jones stands apart from nearly every elected judge in Texas. As a decorated
Army combat veteran, he didn’t just “support” veterans—he deployed with them,
trained beside them, and led them in combat zones.
2× Bronze Star Medal recipient
Combat Action Badge honoree
Over 20 years of service in the U.S. Army and the Army Reserves
Lieutenant Colonel, U.S. Army JAG Corps
Texas is home to the second-largest veteran population in
America, and Harris County leads the state with over 152,000 veterans. To
Judge Jones, these aren’t statistics—they are his brothers and sisters in
arms. And make no mistake about it: he is one of them. His military
record—combined with his courtroom leadership—makes him a uniquely powerful and
credible public servant in the 2026 election cycle.
SERVICE ON THE BENCH
For more than six years, Judge Jones has earned the trust of Harris
County—a community of 4.6 million residents across 34 cities. From
Acres Homes to Baytown, from Sunnyside to Spring Branch, he’s delivered justice
with efficiency, compassion, and impartiality.
Presided over 70+ jury trials
Disposed of 5,000+ felony cases
Earned a reputation for sound legal judgment and courtroom
efficiency
Known for treating all parties with fairness and dignity, and
ever the watchful ear willing to listen to attorneys who argue their cases day
in and day out.
ELECTORAL PROOF: A RECORD OF RESULTS
Judge Jones doesn’t just talk—he wins. And he wins without a machine.
2018: Flipped the 180th Criminal District Court with 653,983
votes (57.9%)
2022: Re-elected with 498,229 votes (50.05%)—with no
signs, no ads, just results
2024: Dominated the statewide Democratic Primary for Texas
Supreme Court with 153,288 votes (59.1%)
2024: Defeated a well-funded, multimillion-dollar
statewide opponent in Harris County with 759,157 votes (50.29%)
2024: Received over 4.7 million votes statewide—proving
he’s a serious contender with a serious future
This is proven electoral power, built from the ground
up. No backroom deals. No billionaire donors. Just a relentless ground game and
a message that resonates.
GROUNDING PRINCIPLES: SERVICE. FAMILY. JUSTICE.
Judge Jones’s worldview was shaped early. As a child, he visited Auschwitz and
the Anne Frank House, witnessing firsthand the lasting impact of injustice and
unchecked power. That experience set him on a lifelong mission to stand
against prejudice and abuse—in whatever form it takes.
At home, he lives what he believes. Judge Jones resides in Houston with his
wife, Audia Jones, a former Congressional Fellow and former Harris County
Assistant District Attorney, now an entrepreneur and advocate in her own right.
They are raising two children with the same values they both fight
for in the courtroom and the community.
And even with a busy courtroom docket, Judge Jones remains a fully engaged
father, present for school drop-offs, late-night science projects, and little
league games. This is all while managing his docket, serving as an adjunct professor, sowing into future attorneys, and continuing to serve his country in the U.S. Army Reserves. On rare weekends, he’s learning to play
golf—where humility is a constant companion.
JOIN THE MOVEMENT. STAND WITH A PROVEN PUBLIC SERVANT.
Judge DaSean Jones isn’t asking for favors. He’s offering selfless service,
integrity, and impartiality you can trust. His ability to connect with everyday
voters, his military distinction, and his hard-won electoral record make him
one of the most formidable and grounded candidates in Harris County today.

When Carmen Maria Montiel ran against Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee during the 2022 Midterm Election, she received 40,941 votes and spent only a little over $ 126,000.00 on her campaign. Comparatively speaking, when former Councilwoman Amanda Edwards challenged Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, she raised over $1.6 million and received only 14,668 votes. That said, there are well over 417,430 registered voters living in CD-18, which means, if Carmen Maria Montiel can garner the lion's share of the Republican vote, on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, she will make the December runoff, and give "THE GOP" a really good shot to flip CD-18 from blue to red.
