The FBI is Already Familiar with Smokie; Dr. Hotze's Case is a Good Example of How Lawfare Works in Harris County


Kim Ogg and her prosecutors did Dr. Steven Hotze (top center) dirty in the 177th Criminal District Court. The criminal case brought against Dr. Hotze was clearly a form of "LAWFARE" if you carefully read the "MOTION TO DISMISS" for Discovery Abuse filed by his attorney. Former Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg (bottom third from right) calls on the FBI to investigate Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare's administration and his connections to an alleged "QUID PRO QUO" between Teare and Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis. Yes. Kim Ogg is correct, and her call for the FBI to intervene is justified. However, the FBI should also investigate how Kim Ogg's chief of staff (Vivian King) tried to use her authority as a First Assistant District Attorney to get former prizefighter Eric Carr (her husband at the time) arrested on a false charge of physical abuse. Vivian King allegedly called Constable James "Smokie" Phillips (far left) to her home and falsely claimed that Eric Carr, who is two decades younger than his 67-year-old ex-wife, got physical with her. Not until Eric Carr produced "VIDEO FOOTAGE" did Constable James "Smokie" Phillips back off and tell Vivian King that she was wrong for what she tried to do to Carr. However, "SMOKIE," according to what I've been told, " SMOKIE " never reported Vivian King's criminal act to his law enforcement superior, Constable May Walker, at the time.



Dr. Steven Hotze, Bishop James Dixon, Pastor Ed Young, and many other local men and women of God did a masterful job defending "WOMEN'S RIGHTS" in 2015. They worked diligently to defeat the Houston Equal Rights Ordinance (HERO), or what many called the "BATHROOM BILL" in these parts. Former Mayor Annise Parker and other members of the "LGBTQIA+ Community never forgave Dr. Steven Hotze for the vast amount of money and effort he put into defeating Proposition One. However, Dr. Steven Hotze also spends his money to support causes and individuals who share his biblical beliefs on many of the social issues of today.



Master Peace Officer Joe Danna is the right choice for Harris County Sheriff. Since Commissioner Rodney Ellis seized control of Harris County, Texas, in 2016, "ELECTION FRAUD" and public corruption rose to unprecedented levels. Under former Mayor Sylvester Turner, with the help of Commissioner Ellis and other members of their "CULT-LIKE" political regime, "COVER-UPS" and "QUID PRO QUOS" have also risen significantly. Under Mayor Turner's rule, the City of Houston became the death capital of America. It is time for the residents of Harris County, Texas, to restore brave leaders like Joe Danna to positions of authority in Harris County, Texas.

"VOTE FRAUD CHARGES."

Yesterday, Wednesday, May 7, 2025, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced arrests in Frio County. Public officials were among six individuals arrested in what he's describing as a "VOTE HARVESTING SCHEME" uncovered in a years-long election integrity investigation.

Attorney General Ken Paxton is accusing the county judge in Frio County, along with two city council members and others, of running an elaborate "VOTE HARVESTING OPERATION." 

"The Frio County judge and former county elections administrator, two Pearsall City Council members, one school board member, and one other person were each charged. Five of them were arrested on May 2. Rochelle Camacho, the county judge, will be processed at a later date, according to a release from Paxton’s office," according to the Texas Tribune.

Attorney General Ken Paxton said, “The people of Texas deserve fair and honest elections, not backroom deals and political insiders rigging the system."

  “Elected officials who think they can cheat to stay in power will be held accountable. No one is above the law,” stated Attorney General Ken Paxton.




Former Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg has tried her best to do the right thing since she lost her re-election bid to fellow Democrat Sean Teare in the Democratic Party primary race on Tuesday, March 5, 2024. Since leaving office, Kim Ogg has rebranded herself as a Justice Advocate, Public Safety Champion, Policy Advisor, and Proud Houstonian. However, Harris County, Texas's citizens need to understand that Kim Ogg was never a Democrat deep down in her soul. Ogg tolerated a lot as a Democrat, but was like her father, whom she loved dearly. State Senator Jack Ogg was what you would consider a "CONSERVATIVE DEMOCRAT" back in the old days, and so is his daughter, Kim Ogg. However, her lifestyle makes it difficult for her to fully embrace her conservative roots and fit into the Republican Party, which values traditional families and frowns upon same sex marriages.

"WRONGFUL PROSECUTION."

After an exhaustive investigation, Aubrey R. Taylor Communications believes that Vivian King may have been involved in many more dirty dealings than expected. Vivian King may have done many things behind Kim Ogg's back that she was unaware of. For instance, according to Vivian King's ex-husband, King allegedly went around telling people that her boss (Kim Ogg) was a "RACIST."  

I wonder if that's why Kim Ogg's Administration tried A.J. Armstrong, a young African American boy, 3 times over 7 years, to get him convicted of capital murder. That said, Vivian King and Kim Ogg did some dirt while Ogg was the Harris County District Attorney. But what they did to Dr. Steven F. Hotze and me was rooted in a different kind of hate and vindictiveness.

Dr. Steven Hotze is not a racist, nor does he hate ethnic minorities, or members of the LGBTQIA+ Community. On numerous occasions, I've asked Dr. Steven Hotze and his wife, my dear friend Janie, to support good causes and minority candidates who share his views on life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and they've always done so. 

When my dear friend Gerry Wayne Monroe wanted to run for the HISD School Board, he was having trouble raising donations, but he had lent his campaign $10,000.00 from his savings and needed more. I went to Dr. Hotze and asked him to help Gerry Wayne Monroe out, and he and his wife, Janie,  gave "THE FIVE STAR GENERAL" two checks, for $10,000.00 each. I gave Gerry Wayne Monroe a $50,000.00 in-kind donation to run my "ELECTION INTEGRITY UNIT" and monitor the mail ballots, and what I discovered was astounding.

Gerry Wayne Monroe ran a strong race for his first time running for political office. Still, he was trounced in the "ABSENTEE BALLOT CATEGORY" by Myrna Guidry, a candidate endorsed by Commissioner Rodney Ellis. However, while Gerry Wayne Monroe came up short in the race for HISD Position 9, Dr. Hotze also supported Dr. Kendall Baker, who won the HISD Position 6 seat in a runoff, and Briget Wade, who won the HISD Position 7 in a runoff.

"COME CLEAN, KIM."

Dr. Steven Hotze was mistreated by Kim Ogg's administration, and I hope that this "WRONGFUL PROSECTION" of Dr. Hotze gets straightened out sooner rather than later. It makes absolutely no sense that Dr. Hotze is still facing charges, while people who have committed murder, and placed children inside a dryer and turned the dryer on with a 6-year-old child inside, have had their charges dismissed.

It may be too late for former Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg to straighten out with the "WRONGFUL PROSECUTION." Still, I am hoping and praying that Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare or Judge Emily Muñoz Detoto, the new presiding judge of the 177th Criminal District Court, displays courage and "DISMISS THE BOGUS CHARGES" against Dr. Steven Hotze and allow him to take care of his loving wife, Janie, who is battling cancer. 

This is ridiculous. With an open mind, anyone who reads this "MOTION TO DISMISS FOR DISCOVER ABUSE" filed by Attorney Jared Woodfill on March 20, 2025, should see that the criminal charges against Dr. Steven Hotze were manufactured.

DEFENDANT STEVEN F. HOTZE’S MOTION TO DISMISS FOR DISCOVERY ABUSE TO THE HONORABLE EMILY MUÑOZ DETOTO:

For years, the Harris County District Attorney’s Office has trampled on Dr. Hotze’s rights. Because Dr. Hotze opposed her in elections and publicly stood for conservative values, former Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg targeted Dr. Hotze by engaging in politically motivated prosecutions. In this Motion to Dismiss, Dr. Hotze requests relief from Ogg’s abuse of the discovery process and her failure to produce documents in violation of this Court’s orders and Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Article 39.14.

I.

Background

In 2020, in his capacity as president of Liberty Center for God & Country (“Liberty”), Dr. Hotze was investigating vote fraud through a group of independent contractors hired by Liberty. One of the independent contractors, Mark Aguirre (“Aguirre”), was involved in an automobile accident with David Lopez (“Lopez”). No one was injured in the accident, and Dr. Hotze was not present. The vote fraud investigation uncovered information related to vote fraud in, among other things, the ballot by mail process, i.e., deceased individuals voting by mail. The information related to vote fraud was presented to the Harris County District Attorney’s Office (“DA’s Office”). The DA’s Office chose not to investigate.

To date, the State has failed to comply with this Court’s order and Article 39.14.



FOX 26 Houston reporter Randy Wallace, Emily Muñoz Detoto, and Andy Kahan from CRIMESTOPPERS fought hard for crime victims on "BREAKING BOND" before Judge Detoto left them to become the presiding judge for the 177th Criminal District Court in Harris County, Texas. Recently, Judge Emily Muñoz Detoto was recognized as one of Harris County, Texas's fairest Criminal Court Judges.  (CLICK HERE) View the 2025 Harris County Lawyers Association (HCCLA) Judicial Evaluation Poll results.




Judge Emily Muñoz Detoto is a "REPUBLICAN JUDGE" and is highly respected by the lawyers and prosecutors who enter his 180th Criminal District Court in Harris County, Texas. Judge Emily Detoto will be running for re-election in the 2028 Presidential Election, in Harris County, Texas, and should be allowed to run unopposed for the Republican nomination.





Judge Peyton Peebles is a "REPUBLICAN JUDGE" and is highly respected by the lawyers and prosecutors who enter his 497th Criminal District Court in Harris County, Texas. Judge Peyton Peebles was appointed to the bench by Governor Greg Abbott on January 7, 2025, for a term that expires on December 31, 2026. Judge Peebles must seek the Republican nomination in next year's Tuesday, March 3, 2026, Harris County Republican Party Primary, and should be allowed to run uncontested for the Republican nomination.




Harris County Prosecutors in the 177th Criminal District Court have not treated Dr. Steven Hotze fairly. This is ridiculous. With an open mind, anyone who reads this "MOTION TO DISMISS FOR DISCOVER ABUSE" filed by Attorney Jared Woodfill on March 20, 2025, should see that the criminal charges against Dr. Steven Hotze were manufactured.





Gerry Wayne Monroe (right) and Dr. Steven Hotze, a very wealthy GOP megadonor, became very good friends after being introduced to one another by publisher/investigative reporter Aubrey R. Taylor before ole "5-Star" running for the HISD School Board several years ago. However, before Dr. Hotze got involved, Gerry Wayne Monroe had already loaned his campaign $10,000 to get his campaign kicked off on 9/9/2021. What broke man do you know, who could afford to loan himself $10,000 to run for a school board seat that doesn't pay a salary?


On 9/28/2021, Gerry Wayne Monroe received a $50,500.00 in-kind contribution from Aubrey R. Taylor Communications for political consulting and newspaper advertising. However, Gerry Wayne Monroe was soundly defeated with "ABSENTEE MAIL BALLOTS" and did not perform as well as expected. 


ONE EXAMPLE of how much Dr. Steven Hotze, the founder of Conservative Republicans of Harris County, loved Gerry Wayne Monroe came on 9/28/2021, when Dr. Steven Hotze, a GOP megadonor, donated $10,000 to Gerry's bid for the HISD District IX seat. How many Democrats have received a $10,000 no-strings-attached donation from anyone lately?



ANOTHER EXAMPLE of how much Dr. Steven Hotze and his wife Janie cared about Gerry Wayne Monroe came when they donated another $10,000.00 to his HISD School board race. Now, this is simply a fraction of the support Gerry Wayne Monroe received from two of his friends.

The FBI is Familiar with Smokie; Dr. Hotze's Case is a Perfect Example of How Lawfare is Waged in a Harris County Courtrooms

AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©

Listen. Dr. Steven Hotze is a victim of discrimination and “LAWFARE” at the hands of “ROGUE PROSECUTORS,” who were working from within Kim Ogg’s Administration back when she was the Harris County District Attorney.

Have you ever heard the term “UNIPARTY” before? Well, in Harris County, Texas, it has become increasingly tricky to (in some cases) tell which local political party is the culprit behind some things unfolding.

The term “UNIPARTY” suggests that ostensibly separate political parties function as a single party. During the 2022 Democratic Party Primary and Republican Party Primary, (DINOS) “Democrats in Name Only” and (RINOS) “Republicans in Name Only” unified their forces to ensure that Vidal Martinez, a Hispanic male endorsed by Dr. Steven Hotze, would not emerge victorious from the March 24, 2022, Republican Party Primary.

How do I know? Vidal Martinez and Dr. Steven Hotze were both my clients.

On Tuesday, March 1, 2022, in the Republican Party Primary, Alexandra del Moral Mealer, a Combat veteran (Army Bomb Squad) and West Point Graduate with a Harvard University JD/MBA was the anointed candidate on the Republican side of the aisle in the race for Harris County Judge.

County Judge Lina Hidalgo was running for re-election on Tuesday, March 1, 2022, in the race for Harris County Judge.

On the “GOP SIDE” of the aisle, Dr. Steven Hotze and his political consultant shocked members of the “UNIPARTY” party by helping Vidal Martinez finish second in a field of nine candidates, which included Alexandra del Moral Mealer, Vidal Martinez, Randy Kubosh, Martina Lemond Dixon, Oscar Gonzales, Warren A. Howell, H.Q. Bolanos, and George Harry Zoes.

Alexandra del Moral Mealer received 50,435 votes, or 29.50%. Vidal Martinez, whom Dr. Steven Hotze endorsed, allowed Dr. Steven Hotze’s consultant, Jeff Yates, the owner of THE YATES COMPANY, to run his campaign.

With Yates’s guidance, Vidal Martinez received 44,216 votes, for 25.87%. After Vidal Martinez’s stellar showing, members of the “UNIPARTY” got nervous and developed an “ALLEGED SCHEME” to doom Vidal Martinez's campaign by indicting Dr. Steven Hotze before the Tuesday, May 24, 2022, “RUNOFF ELECTION” between Vidal Martinez and Alexandra del Moral Mealer got underway.

On April 2, 2022, Dr. Steven Hotze held an “ELECTION INTEGRITY GALA” at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in downtown Houston, Texas.

Attorney General Ken Paxton, Gerry Wayne Monroe, “The Five Star General,” and Mike Lindell, the CEO of My Pillow, were featured speakers at Dr. Steven Hotze’s “ELECTION INTEGRITY GALA” held at the Hyatt Regency Hotel on April 2, 2022.

Dr. Hotze honored Alan Vera (now deceased), the director of Ballot Security, and his wife, Colleen Vera, for their years of hard work in the “ELECTION INTEGRITY” arena. However, Dr. Hotze also honored me for my reporting on “ELECTION FRAUD” and public corruption.

A few weeks after Dr. Hotze held his “ELECTION INTEGRITY GALA” at the Hyatt Regency Hotel downtown, Dr. Hotze found himself indicted on April 20, 2022, by a grand jury for Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon and Unlawful Restraint Serious Bodily Injury.

“HOTZE IS NOT GUILTY.”

Members of Kim Ogg’s administration harbored deeply embedded hatred of Dr. Hotze in part because he had begun to use his vast wealth and influence to financially support “BLACK AND BROWN” initiatives and political candidates who support the “BIBLICAL VIEW” of traditional families and hold to the notion that man and woman are the only two genders.

I met Dr. Steven Hotze face-to-face during the November 3, 2015, City of Houston General Election. The Houston Equal Rights Ordinance (HERO) was on the ballot as Proposition 1, which would allow “BIOLOGICAL MEN” to use the same restrooms, locker rooms, and showers as “BIOLOGICAL WOMEN” inside Houston’s City limits.

Ultimately, “PROPOSITION ONE” was soundly defeated as African American women sided with Dr. Steven Hotze and local pastors who were against the potentially deadly proposition. The turnout was low, but 157,110, or 60.97%, of Houston’s voters voted against Proposition 1, and 100,582, or 39.03%, voted in favor of the HERO Ordinance.

“DEEP ROOTED HATRED.”

Kim Ogg’s hatred for Dr. Steven Hotze appears to run much deeper than politics. Ogg, a lesbian, seems to have abused her power as the Harris County District Attorney to unfairly target Dr. Hotze during the 2022 Midterm Election, in part because of Dr. Hotze’s stance against the homosexual lifestyle.

The plot to tie Dr. Hotze’s “CRIMINAL INDICTMENT” to Vidal Martinez’s “RUNOFF CAMPAIGN” worked masterfully and helped Alexandra del Moral Mealer, his Republican opponent, to soundly defeat him on May 24, 2022, when they faced off for their “RUNOFF” showdown.

As a refresher, Alexandra del Moral Mealer received 85,778 votes, 75.42% of the vote, and Vidal Martinez received 27,952 votes, 24.58%.

With Dr. Steven Hotze’s endorsed candidate, Vidal Martinez, out of the way, the “UNIPARTY,” through their efforts, ensured that County Judge won her re-election bid over Alexandra del Moral Mealer on Tuesday, November 8, 2022, in Harris County, Texas.

After Republican voters were disenfranchised by not supplying enough “BALLOT PAPER” to their polling locations, County Judge Lina Hidalgo was able to hold off the hard-charging Alexandra del Moral Mealer on “ELECTION NIGHT” in the race for Harris County Judge.

As a refresher, Lina Hidalgo received 552,903 votes, or 50.82% of the vote; Alexandra del Moral Mealer received 534,720 votes, or 49.15%; and Naoufal Houjami, a write-in candidate, received 204 votes, or 0.02%.

“THE FIVE-STAR GENERAL.”

In hindsight, it appears that Kim Ogg and other local politicians’ hatred of Dr. Hotze may have also stemmed from their hate and disdain for “COMMUNITY ACTIVIST” Gerry Wayne Monroe, better known as the “FIVE STAR GENERAL,” and drove them mad.

Aside from Kim Ogg’s hatred of Dr. Hotze for personal reasons, the liaison between Kim Ogg’s Administration and several “BLACK ELECTED OFFICIALS” was Vivian King, who had ties to corrupt career politicians like Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee and many others.

Vivian King used her position to act as the “ATTACK DOG” from inside the D.A.’s Office when Kim Ogg was the Harris County District Attorney. But she hated her boss.

Former Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg’s chief of staff was sabotaging her administration from the inside and doing a lot of dirty work outside the purview of her boss. Ogg trusted Vivian King and appointed her as her chief of staff, but King’s loyalty was never to Ogg.

King’s undying loyalty was to a group of “DIRTY NEGRO POLITICIANS” and criminal-minded political operatives like Gerald Womack, the owner of Womack Development & Investment Realtors, and her henchman Gary Wade, who tried to threaten and bully me.

Vivian King took the stand in the 486th Criminal District Court in a “BOGUS CASE” that she conjured up Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee and Gerald Womack, Vivian King’s mortgage broker and Sheila Jackson Lee’s Campaign Manager.

While under oath on Tuesday, November 4, 2024, Vivian King tried to throw her boss (Kim Ogg) under the bus by claiming that Kim Ogg was in a meeting discussing my case.

Nobody else who took the stand under oath mentioned Kim Ogg’s name; only Vivian King, who also tried to implicate C.O. Bradford, who worked in Kim Ogg’s Administration as a “SPECIAL PROSECUTOR” and senior adviser.

“CORRUPT AT THE CORE.”

Vivian King’s third ex-husband, former professional prizefighter Eric Carr, informed me that while he was married to Vivian King, on numerous occasions, King told other individuals that her boss (Kim Ogg) was a racist. How’s that for loyalty?

On numerous occasions, while working as a First District Attorney in Kim Ogg’s Administration, Vivian King used her state-issued email account for reasons she should not have.

Eric Carr, a former prizefighter, “TWO DECADES” younger than Vivian King, reluctantly married Vivian King, even though she was well over 60, during a weekend getaway to Las Vegas to celebrate her birthday. However, less than two years into the marriage, Carr began to be verbally and physically abused by Vivian King, according to his accounts.

On one occasion, in a drunken stupor, Vivian King physically assaulted Eric Carr, who ended his amateur boxing career with 56 wins and only six losses.

During his boxing career, Carr sparred with boxing champions, including seven-time world middleweight champion Tommy “Hit Man” Hearnes, the former WBC Continental Middleweight Champion Kid Fire Parks, and 1984 Olympics medal winner Frank Tate, who went on to become the world Middleweight Champion.

Carr’s hands are deadly. With this in mind, Vivian King, while working as Kim Ogg’s chief of staff and as a First Assistant District Attorney with the Harris County District Attorney’s Office, while in a drunken stupor, tried to have her younger husband (Eric Carr) arrested for allegedly assaulting her.

Does that sound familiar?

Vivian King called a local Deputy Constable named James “Smokie” Phillips, working in the Precinct 7 Constable’s Office in Constable May Walker’s Administration, to investigate her “BOGUS CLAIMS” against her young husband.

It is unclear if James “Smokie” Phillips arrived at the home Vivian King shared with her young husband in his official capacity as a Precinct 7 Deputy Constable or as Vivian King’s close friend. However, no matter the case, Vivian King used her “OFFICIAL POSITION” as a Harris County District Attorney to intentionally and knowingly lie to a law enforcement officer, which is a serious crime.

As the story goes, Vivian King used her position within Kim Ogg’s Administration to flex her muscles and try to have her young (third husband) arrested for assault.

It wasn’t until Eric Carr showed Deputy Constable James “Smokie” Phillips secretly recording “VIDEO FOOTAGE” proving that Vivian King was the aggressor that “Smokie” backed off and allegedly stated, “Vivian, you were wrong for that,” or something to that effect.

For those unfamiliar with “SMOKIE,” who now works as the Precinct 7 Constable, he is the same guy who got arrested years ago when he worked as a deputy with the Harris County Sheriff’s Office.

Back in 1996, James “Smokie” Phillips was working for the Harris County Sheriff’s Office when he got busted, charged, and convicted in connection with a massive cocaine trafficking ring involving Mexico’s Cali Cartel.

“Smokie was one of 11 co-conspirators busted in this cartel scheme by the FBI and DEA,” according to 30-time Emmy Award-winning investigative Reporter Wayne Dolcefino.

According to Dolcefino, “The indictments detailed Smokie’s alleged role was to use his law enforcement position to protect the drug smugglers, help them avoid detection, and use a state computer to run background checks on potential drug buyers."

James “SMOKIE” Phillips was convicted (dead to the right) of a federal conspiracy charge. That said, the conviction was later tossed by a judge who ruled that some of the witness testimony was vague and inconclusive.

Sadly, Federal Authorities moved on and never re-tried “SMOKIE,” which enabled him to continue to hang around and eventually get elected as the “PRECINCT 7 CONSTABLE,” even though his boss (Constable May Walker) refused to endorse him.

“PROSECUTORIAL MISCONDUCT.”

While Vivian King and Eric Carr were married, I had numerous conversations with Vivian King, directly and indirectly, while the two were lying in bed together. During one conversation, while lying next to Vivian King, Eric Carr and I had a conversation centering around the arrest of Dr. Steven Hotze.

“I don’t agree with what they are doing to that man,” stated Eric Carr, with his wife (Vivian King) mumbling something in the background.

If I were Dr. Hotze, I would subpoena Eric Carr and Vivian King because Eric Carr believes in honesty and fairness. I know firsthand that Eric Carr would never allow anyone to be wrongfully convicted for a crime they did not commit.

Vivian King’s ex-husband (Eric Carr) got subpoenaed to testify against her if my case had gone to trial. Still, I never made it to trial because Sean Teare dismissed the case on February 13, 2025, the day Carr was set to take the stand on February 14, 2025, in the 486th Criminal District Court in Harris County, Texas.

“BIASED LOCAL MEDIA.”

Local news was reported differently in Harris County, Texas when two daily newspapers could hold one another accountable.

The Houston Post closed permanently, with the final edition printed on April 18, 1995. Since then, the Houston Chronicle has operated with complete autonomy, as its reporters have shaped public opinion, influenced the outcomes of local political races, and berated anyone who opposed them.

Now, Houston Landing, a nonprofit startup, is closing and is laying off 43 employees in a few weeks, which is heartbreaking. Their newsroom, launched two years ago with much fanfare and $20 million in philanthropic commitments, will be missed.

With the Houston Landing shutting down and African American-owned newspapers struggling to survive, I plan to step up to the plate, expand my coverage, and take up some of the slack.

We cannot only have reporters from the Houston Chronicle writing narratives about what’s unfolding inside 201 Caroline (Civil Courthouse Building) and 1201 Franklin (County Court Building) in Downtown Houston, Texas.

The hallmark of our democracy hinges on our right to speak our minds and deliver unfiltered news to the general public in our region. Many local newspapers, like the Houston Defender and the Houston Forward Times, are underfunded and ill-prepared to do original reporting out of fear of losing the few corporate sponsors and advertisers keeping their fledgling newspapers alive.

That said, I am joining forces with Hall of Fame Sports Broadcaster Ralph Cooper on June 19, 2025, which is “JUNETEENTH” to inform, empower, and mobilize the readers of the Houston Business Connections Newspaper and KCOH 1230 AM, as we press forward into the 2026 Midterm Election cycle.

Ralph Cooper, “COOP,” has been a fixture in broadcasting for over five decades, and I have been in the news industry for over three decades.

If you don’t know, “COOP” began his Hall of Fame career covering community issues, Harris County Courts, and the happenings inside our Harris County Jails. That said, don’t be surprised if you see “COOP” and I making unannounced trips to Houston City Hall, Harris County Commissioner’s Court, and the County Criminal and Civil Courtrooms in the new future.

Speaking of Harris County Criminal Courtrooms, I don’t like what I see unfolding inside the 177th Criminal District Court right now.

What’s happening to Dr. Steven Hotze is flat-out wrong. The District Attorney’s Office appears to be playing a “DIABOLICAL POLITICAL GAME” with the life of this “GOP PATRIOT” while acquiescing to some non-public Democratic political code.

Our courtrooms should not be a place to wage “LAWFARE” on political rivals or grind political axes. Any local judge who is too cowardly or afraid to do their job should be removed from their bench and recused from high-profile cases.

Just last week, a judge whom I love and admire, Judge Te’iva Bell, who presides over the 338th Criminal District Court, was recused from a manslaughter case.

While I don’t know all the details of what led to Judge Te’iva Bell's recusal, I plan to visit her 338th Criminal District Court and start monitoring other local Harris County courtrooms in the future.

“BACK TO KIM OGG.”

Kim Ogg’s Administration was as wrong as two left shoes for what they’ve done to Dr. Steven Hotze. And part of the reason they were able to get away with bringing the “BOGUS CHARGES” against Dr. Hotze was that he’s been fighting “DINOs,” Democrats in Name Only, and “RINOs,” Republicans in Name Only, who appear to have teamed up against him.

Dr. Steven Hotze has fought against corruption in high places for decades. He opposed Kim Ogg and other “ROGUE POLITICIANS” and has stood firm for conservative values without fear.

I recently reviewed his “MOTION TO DISMISS” for prosecutorial misconduct, which was filed inside the 177th Criminal District Court, which is presided over by Judge Emily Muñoz Detoto.

Judge Detoto, a Republican, unseated Judge Robert Johnson, a Democrat, during the November 5, 2024, Presidential Election. Comparatively speaking, Detoto received 729,131 votes for 50.13%, and Johnson received 725,463 votes for 49.87%.

With 1,454,594 votes cast in the race for District Judge, 177th Criminal District Court, Emily Muñoz Detoto only defeated Robert Johnson by a mere 3,668 votes.

Interestingly, 112,997 of the Harris County voters who worked their way down the ballot skipped the race for the 177th Criminal District Court, which enabled Detoto to defeat her Democratic rival.

I haven’t visited the 177th Criminal District Court since Judge Emily Muñoz Detoto took it over. Still, she has impressed everyone with her unbiased approach, fairness, compassionate but tough judicial temperament, and command of her courtroom.

“CRIMINAL COURT JUDGES.”

The Honorable Judge Emily Muñoz Detoto and several of her fellow judiciary members recently received a vote of confidence from attorneys who are members of the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association (HCCLA) in their 2025 Judicial Preference Poll.

While the 2025 Judicial Preference Poll is not a scientific survey, it provides citizens with a tool to identify “GOOD JUDGES” who are fair and unbiased inside their courtrooms.

The 2025 Judicial Preference Poll measured the performances of the sixteen (16) Harris County Criminal Courts at Law Judges and all twenty-nine (29) State Criminal District Court Judges presiding over benches in Harris County, Texas.

Judge Sedrick T. Walker, II (Democrat), Judge Alex Salgado (Democrat), Judge Peyton Peebles (Republican), Judge Raul Rodriguez (Democrat), Judge Josh Hill (Democrat), Judge Melissa M. Morris (Democrat), Judge Kelly Andrews (Democrat), Judge Genesis Draper (Democrat), Judge Te’iva Bell (Democrat), Judge DaSean Jones (Democrat), Judge Emily Detoto (Republican), Judge Chis Morton (Democrat), Judge Shannon Baldwin (Democrat), Judge Juanita A. Jackson (Democrat), Judge Veronica M. Nelson (Democrat), rounded out the top ten.

On the question of whether this judge demonstrates impartiality towards both the defense and the State, only two Criminal Court “REPUBLICAN JUDGES” in Harris County, Texas, made it into the top ten in the 2025 Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association (HCCLA) Judicial Evaluation Poll, which was released to the general public.

Judge Peyton Peebles, the presiding judge for the 497th Criminal District Court, and Judge Emily Muñoz, the presiding judge for the 177th Criminal District Court, both received high marks.

Judge Peyton Peebles should be allowed to run “UNCONTESTED” next year on Tuesday, March 3, 2026, in the Republican Party Primary in Harris County, Texas.

Governor Greg Abbott appointed Judge Peebles to the 497th Judicial District Court in Harris County, Texas, on January 7, 2025, to a term set to expire on December 31, 2026.

As for Judge Emily Muñoz Detoto, she will not be up for re-election until the 2028 Presidential Election, but she’s off to a tremendous start. Judge Detoto should be allowed to run for re-election in the 2028 Republican Party Primary “UNCONTESTED” if she remains unbiased and fair in her 177th Criminal District Court in Harris County, Texas.

Our judges are the last line of defense for many people wrongfully accused of crimes by rogue District Attorneys. That said, we need to balance off our Harris County Criminal Courts with “GREAT JUDGES” like Judge Peyton Peebles and Emily Muñoz Detoto to keep things honest and on the up and up.

Her website states, “In recent years, Emily has become increasingly concerned about the direction the justice system is taking, which motivated her to run for judge.”

Emily Muñoz Detoto claimed on her website that her experience and reputation for being firm but fair would enable her to turn around the 177th District Court and ensure that defendants’ cases are handled fairly and expeditiously.

“Cases that linger do an injustice to the victims, who deserve closure, to the accused, who are presumed innocent, and to the citizens of Harris County who elect judges to do the work of the people,” stated Emily Muñoz Detoto

“If you want an experienced, firm, and fair judge who will work hard to make sure that justice is served, then you should vote for Emily Muñoz Detoto for the 177th District Court,” her website stated, as she sought to unseat my friend and former client Judge Robert Johnson back on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, in Harris County, Texas.

While I have not personally visited Judge Emily Detoto’s 177th Criminal District Court yet, from the outside looking in, I see that she’s living up to her promise, and I must admit I’m impressed.

“STOP PLAYING GAMES.”

For nearly all my adult life, I’ve been watching and monitoring dirty, low-down politicians like Commissioner Rodney Ellis, the late Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, and the late Congressman Sylvester Turner gain unfair advantages in local elections. However, things didn’t get as bad as they are today until around 2016, when Commissioner Rodney Ellis became the Commissioner for Precinct One and Sylvester Turner became Mayor of the City of Houston.

From my observation, Commissioner Rodney Ellis has seized control of the District Attorney’s Office, the County Attorney’s Office, the Harris County Judge, the Harris County Clerk, the City of Houston Controller’s Office, and even a few Harris County Courtrooms.

How has he done it? Commissioner Rodney Ellis and members of his “CULT-LIKE” political regime have unfairly and unjustly targeted “WHITE MALES” and have pushed forth a “DISCRIMINATORY AGENDA” aimed at removing white people from positions of authority in Harris County, Texas, and beyond.

If you don’t believe that African Americans can possess racist tendencies, you had better rethink your notion because African Americans like Commissioner Rodney Ellis and many of his followers are stone-cold racists who are using their “ELECTED POSITIONS” to carry their “DIABOLICAL AGENDA” by nefarious means.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once stated, “For the doctrine of Black supremacy is as dangerous as white supremacy. God is not interested merely in the freedom of black men and brown men and yellow men but God is interested in the freedom of the whole human race, the creation of a society where all men will live together as brothers.”

“STEALING OUR ELECTIONS.”

Before 2016, “BALLOT HARVESTING” by African Americans was pretty much relegated to “BLACK VOTING PRECINCTS” in areas controlled by career politicians whose districts ran across the 18th Congressional District of Texas and the 13th Senatorial District.

Since the 2016 Presidential Election, when Commissioner Rodney Ellis took over as the Precinct One Commissioner, “ELECTION FRAUD” has steadily increased with reckless abandon. And along with “ELECTION FRAUD,” a culture of corruption has encamped over our entire region.

The biblical cities of Sodom and Gomorrah in the “HOLY BIBLE” didn’t have anything to do with Harris County, Texas, where everything goes.

Harris County, Texas, is one of the top three most corrupt counties in America, and the City of Houston has become the “DEATH CAPITAL” of America because of one person – Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis.

It is clear in my mind that Commissioner Rodney Ellis’s “DEADLY POLICY AGENDA” has people outside his “CULT-LIKE” political regime afraid of him. After all, he and his “PUPPETS” have taken over local City and County Government Offices and have ruled them with an iron fist since he seized control of the Precinct One Commissioner’s office.

Listen. I like our newly elected District Attorney, but something is off about the cases he’s been dismissing and the ones where he’s taking a hands-off approach. I was overjoyed when the District Attorney’s Office dismissed the bogus case that the previous DA’s Office had conjured up against me. However, they didn’t have any choice.

Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee pushed her weight around to get me wrongfully indicted. And former District Attorney Kim Ogg’s chief of staff, Vivian King, made everything work from the inside to curry favor with “SHE-JACK” and her Campaign Manager.

Gerald Womack, the owner of Womack Development & Investment Realtors, was the campaign manager for Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee’s campaigns for decades. And during their reign of terror on “BLACK VOTING PRECINCTS,” they ruined the lives and thwarted the dreams of anyone who dared to stand in their way.

“BACK TO SEAN TEARE.”

Former District Attorney Kim Ogg was as corrupt as they come. But her first assistant, Vivian King, was evil, vile, and vindictive. That said, when you put the two of them together, you come up with a “DANGEROUS COMBINATION” of combustion that, if left unchecked, could lead to a total collapse of trust in our criminal justice system.

As for our current District Attorney, Sean Teare, I haven’t lost hope in him. Still, my trust in his ability to do the “PEOPLE’S BUSINESS” is slowly disappearing after he fired an intern who recently flagged charging errors at the Harris County DA’s Office.

What’s going on in Harris County, Texas? Is anyone courageous enough to stand up and do what’s right? An intern finds potential coding errors and incorrect charges filed in 300 criminal cases, brings his findings to bureau chiefs and District Attorney Sean Tear’s attention, and gets canned. Is that how we do business in Harris County, Texas?

In a report published on KHOU’s website, District Attorney Sean Teare conceded that experienced prosecutors, not a third-year law student, should have spotted the possible charging mistakes. This has me questioning the intent of our criminal justice system even more.

Is Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare one of the good guys, or is he a member of Commissioner Rodney Ellis’s “CULT-LIKE” political regime?

Since taking office, Teare has made some good decisions, but he’s also made some horrible ones, which has me looking at him sideways.

I must admit that I was surprised when Sean Teare waltzed into the DA’s office and dismissed those four cases where the alleged murderers were facing charges.

One of the cases involved a man who had no criminal record but allegedly killed his 51-year-old uncle, James Glover, on Washington Avenue.

Another one of the cases dismissed by Sean Teare involved a 17-year-old who Kim Ogg’s Administration charged for allegedly murdering a 43-year-old man named Banda Reyes under the Pierce Elevated.

According to the KHOU report, District Attorney Sean Teare stated that he intends to begin encouraging his prosecutors to speak to division chiefs sooner rather than later when they have a case they do not believe they can prove. Really?

District Attorney Sean Teare also dismissed charges against Life Ford, 19, and Jaqory Gill, 20, at the request of a complaining witness. Ford and Gill got arrested for locking a child inside a clothes dryer at a laundromat in North Houston.

The child who got placed in the dryer was only 6 years old and was placed in the dryer for approximately a minute, which was a heinous crime.

But the dismissal of the case against Barbie Robinson, the former Harris County health director, has me scratching my head – something is wrong.

Claiming that there was insufficient evidence in the case that Kim Ogg’s Administration brought against Barbie Robinson didn’t pass the smell test.

“I think what we’re seeing is a real quid pro quo status,” stated former Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg in an interview she did with KTRK Channel 13.

According to Ogg, the former Harris County Public Health Director, once facing four felony indictments, should not have been let off the hook.

The case involving Barbie Robinson was related to an alleged bid-rigging scheme that could have ended up at the doorsteps of higher-ups in Harris County’s “POLITICAL HEIRARCHY” that Commissioner Rodney Ellis has fashioned.

“This is a cover-up by Sean Tear in return for support he received from certain public officials who could be implicated in these investigations,” Ogg told the KTRK reporter.

Now listen. If anyone knows what a “QUID PRO QUO” agreement looks like, Kim Ogg is the authority on such agreements.

“QUID PRO QUO.”

In hindsight, the entire case that Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg brought against Richard Bonton, Damien Thaddeus Jones, and Natasha Demming (Ruiz) was allegedly part of a “QUID PRO QUO” agreement between former Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg, State Representative Harold V. Dutton, Jr., and other members of the Harris County Democratic Legislative Delegation.

Kim Ogg caved to the pressure that was applied to her by local “DEMOCRATIC LAWMAKERS” and corrupt community leaders in the 2020 case she brought against three of her political foes.

Richard Bonton and Damien Thaddeus Jones were launching a campaign to investigate “ELECTION FRAUD” and ballot harvesting in Harris County, Texas, when their investigation was halted in December 2020 by Kim Ogg’s political prosecution of these individuals.

On March 18, 2020, the Harris County Democratic Legislative Delegation sent a letter to Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg and Harris County Attorney Vince Ryan, demanding they investigate a serious election fraud case.

“We write to request your offices to investigate a severe case of election fraud that appears to have been perpetrated during the March 3rd Democratic Primary election for Texas House District 142,” their letter stated.

The letter continued, “We are concerned that more than 2,500 Harris County voters may have been duped into voting for a non-existent candidate, a serious theft of those voters’ most important right, and three legitimate candidates were harmed by the crimes committed.”

“We have attached a memorandum based on our preliminary inquiry into events that resulted in a sham 'candidate' being on the ballot. These facts make it clear that serious election fraud has occurred, potentially by the coordinated efforts of more than one person,” the letter sent to Ogg and Ryan continued.

Election fraud alleged, “Not only were more than 2,500 voters defrauded, but three legitimate candidates put themselves before the voters, campaigned hard, and followed the rules. It is unfair to them, their supporters, and the general public to allow this fraud to go unanswered.”

“This fraud could have been perpetrated against the voters of any political party and against any legitimate candidate, anywhere in Texas,” stated the members of the Harris County Democratic Legislative Delegation.

Ogg was compelled to investigate, “For that reason, these crimes must be thoroughly investigated and the perpetrator prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, so that anyone who considers doing so in the future will understand their risk of prosecution.”

“We request that your offices coordinate an immediate investigation into the events documented in the attached memo and take appropriate prosecutorial action at the earliest possible time,” stated the letter sent to Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg (Democrat) and Harris County Attorney Vince Ryan (Democrat) by the members of the Harris County Democratic Delegation on March 18, 2020.

After Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg refused to act, she received a follow-up letter from Carroll G. Robinson, the president of the Texas Coalition of Black Democrats, and Dr. James Douglas, the president of the local branch of the NAACP.

Long story short, Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg caved to pressure to bring charges against Richard Bonton, Damien Thadeus Jones, and Natasha Demming.

What about Dr. Steven Hotze? Did Kim Ogg cave to pressure to indict Dr. Steven Hotze as part of a “DIABOLICAL SCHEME” to go after her political rivals? Who knows?

Or is it possible that Dr. Steven Hotze is the victim of a wrongful, over-zealous prosecution, like his recently filed “MOTION TO DISMISS” for Discovery Abuse/Prosecutorial Misconduct state?

You can never be sure these days, but rather than trying to explain the travesty and injustice that has occurred to Dr. Steven Hotze inside the 177th Criminal District Court, I implore you to carefully read the entire “MOTION TO DISMISS” for yourself.

Former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles "Chuck" Marler identified Gerald Womack and Dallas Jones as two businessmen who doubled as chief lieutenants for Commissioner Ellis's regime and worked directly under Ellis and others to implement their illegal mail ballot harvesting operation in Harris County, Texas, in 2020. According to "THE AFFIDAVIT," sworn to by former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles "Chuck" Marler, Tyler James, an employee of Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis, bragged about guaranteeing that 700,000 illegal mail ballots could be harvested in Harris County, Texas. (CLICK HERE) Read the "SWORN AFFIDAVIT" that was filed in a case before the Texas Supreme Court.



Investigative Reporter Aubrey R. Taylor (left) and Former FBI Investigative Specialist Charles "Chuck" Marler (right) are committed to making sure the upcoming "SPECIAL ELECTION" for the 18th Congressional District of Texas is fair, free, and accurate. The deadline to file for a place on the ballot is Wednesday, September 3, 2025, and "EARLY VOTING" will begin on Monday, October 20, 2025. Election Day voting will be on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, in Harris County, Texas.

"ABOUT CHUCK."

Charles "Chuck" Marler worked for the FBI for 16 years, learning all facets of the Bureau’s complex operations from evidence collection, radio communications, aviation surveillance, and Forward Looking Infra-Red (FLIR). Chuck was an Investigative Specialist for 12 years as a member of the Special Surveillance Group and conducted, organized, and completed thousands of surveillances on Drug (as FLIR operator), Intelligence, and Terrorism targets. Chuck participated in joint training operations with the DIA, DEA, JCTA, and CIA. He was an instructor and evaluator numerous times for the FBI’s surveillance training programs.

Chuck managed several FLIR System Operators while coordinating one of the FBI’s prominent FLIR programs. He provided case guidance, became an expert in the operation and maintenance of FLIR equipment, and personally trained or provided training for his operators. Under Chuck's leadership and guidance, the FLIR program conducted numerous successful operations against espionage subjects, suspected terrorism subjects, drug shipments, violent crime, and kidnapping searches.

Since 2008, Chuck has been a co-owner of a private investigative firm based in Houston and has worked as a Private Investigator in Texas for the past four years, specializing in covert physical surveillance operations. As a P.I., he has performed criminal investigations and conducted surveillance operations involving workman’s compensation, child custody, drug use, theft, and the elusive but frequent cheating spouse.

“FBI INTERVENTION.”

It’s true; Dallas Jones, the owner of Elite Change, was snatched from his home by the FBI and held for nearly a week, according to the investigators who were conducting surveillance of Dallas Jones for weeks during the 2020 Presidential Election cycle.

From what I’ve gathered after investigating what unfolded in 2020, local and national media organizations appear to have worked feverishly behind the scenes with the “BIDEN/HARRIS CAMPAIGN” to suppress the story about Joe Biden’s (Texas Political Director) Dallas Jones and his little run-in with the FBI right before the start of Early Voting.

----------------------------------

"On the morning of Saturday, October 17, 2020, around 10:00 a.m., I began receiving phone calls and text messages from elected officials and other civic and spiritual leaders asking me if I knew anything about rumors swirling around Harris County about Dallas Jones getting picked up by the FBI."

----------------------------------

In hindsight, we now know the “BIDEN/HARRIS CAMPAIGN” was working behind the scenes, pressuring social media networks and media outlets to protect their underling, Dallas Jones, serving as their Texas Political Director for their campaign.

Multiple sources report that the practice of putting pressure on media outlets and social networks is still ongoing. “In 2021, senior officials from the Biden Administration, including the White House, repeatedly pressured our teams for months to censor certain COVID-19 content, including humor and satire, and expressed a lot of frustration with our teams when we didn’t agree,” stated Mark Zuckerberg, founder Chairman & CEO of Meta Platforms, Inc., in a letter he recently sent to Jim Jordan, Chairman on the Committee on Judiciary – United States House of Representatives.

Zuckerberg further stated, “I believe the government pressure was wrong, and I regret that we were not more outspoken about it. I also think we made some choices that, with the benefit of hindsight and new information, we would make today."

The stories about Russian disinformation were false. “In a separate situation, the FBI warned us about a potential Russian disinformation operation about the Biden family and Burisma in the lead-up to the 2020 election. That fall, when we saw a New York Post story reporting on corruption allegations involving then-Democratic presidential nominee Joe Bidens’ family, we sent that story to fact-checkers for review and temporarily demoted it while waiting for a reply,” stated Zuckerberg in his letter to the Committee on the Judiciary for the United States House of Representatives.

“It’s since been made clear that the reporting was not Russian disinformation, and in retrospect, we shouldn’t have demoted the story,” proclaimed Zuckerberg.

He stated, “We’ve changed our policies and processes to ensure this doesn’t happen again – for instance, we no longer temporarily demote things in the U.S. while waiting for fact-checkers."

“FIGHTING THE FRAUD.”

The fact that Dallas Jones, the Texas Political Director for the “BIDEN/HARRIS CAMPAIGN” and chief consultant for Commissioner Rodney Ellis, was snatched from his home on Saturday, October 17, 2020, begs the question of what other stories are being suppressed.

Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis and members of his regime are behind the “ELECTION FRAUD” and not the local “BLACK JUDGES” my investigative team has uncovered.

Commissioner Ellis is the culprit.

For decades, Rodney Ellis, Sylvester Turner, Sheila Jackson Lee, and several other local career politicians who belong to their “CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE” have bullied, intimidated, and threatened their rivals from both sides of the political aisle.

Their threats and intimidation tactics have dissuaded many “GOOD BLACKS” from pursuing public office out of fear of having to face off against one of Commissioner Ellis’s minions.

Ellis and his minions, for some reason, believe in their minds that they’re better than everyday Black folks. In a sense, they think they’re superior and are so prideful that they’re not any earthly good.

“Black supremacy is as dangerous as white supremacy, and God is not interested merely in the freedom of black men and brown men and yellow men,” stated civil rights leader Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., in a speech he delivered on the in Greencastle, Indiana on the campus of DePauw University on Monday, September 5, 1960, to thunderous applause.

Dr. King states, “God is interested in the freedom of the whole human race and the creation of a society where all men will live together as brothers, and all men will respect the dignity and worth of all human personality."

What Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis and members of his regime are doing in Harris County, Texas, is flat-out wrong and must be uprooted from local politics.

Before 2016, when Rodney Ellis took over the reins of “COUNTY GOVERNMENT” and Sylvester Turner took over the reins of “CITY GOVERNMENT,” the illegal criminal ballot harvesting schemes they’ve grown accustomed to relying upon were, for the most part, relegated to helping them dominate election contests in Black areas of Harris County, Texas.

Once Commissioner Rodney Ellis seized control of “PRECINCT ONE” after the untimely death of the late Commissioner El Franco Lee, he and members of his “CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE” immediately set their sights on bigger and better things – turning the state of Texas red. However, there was one “GOP” Megadonor (Steven Hotze) who decided that he was not going to allow Commissioner Rodney Ellis and his regime to seize Texas by running up “ABSENTEE MAIL BALLOT TOTALS” in Harris County, Texas.


Joe Danna is a candidate who values our vote, who is committed to putting "PEOPLE OVER POLITICS" and "PUBLIC SAFETY" over the deadly and unsafe "POLITICAL AGENDA" that has made Harris County, Texas, dangerous for all of us to live, work, and play. The City of Houston has become the "DEATH CAPITAL" of the United States of America, under the watch of Commissioner Rodney Ellis and the members of his "CULT-LIKE" political regime.



Former Judge Israel Garcia plans to make a "BIG ANNOUNCEMENT" in December 2025. Please remember that Israel Garcia is a strong man who stands for what's right and isn't afraid to push back against corruption. He is a true friend of Aubrey R.

Christian DaShaun Menefee is a poor excuse for a Democrat. Menefee should be rejected by "ALL DEMOCRATS" at the ballot box on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, in the vacant 18th Congressional District of Texas race. Menefee is selfish, egotistical, arrogant, and worships Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis as if the "PUPPET MASTER" is a deity, mini-god, or supreme being worthy of exaltation. Commissioner Rodney Ellis has become an idol to Christian Menefee. Therefore, Christian DaShaun Menefee appears to be brainwashed as he jumps, skips, hops, shuffles his feet, bends over, and does the little "WATUSI DANCE" whenever Commissioner Ellis pulls his strings or plays a familiar beat on his drum.

I’m Aubrey R. Taylor, the publisher of Houston Business Connections Newspaper, one of Texas's most formidable politically-focused publications. With the help of my chief investigator, Charles Marler, a former FBI Investigative Specialist, my investigative team is second to none. NOTE: My thoughts, opinions, and reports are published under my First Amendment-protected rights afforded to me under the “FREEDOM OF SPEECH” and “FREEDOM OF THE PRESS” clauses in the U.S. Constitution.

"SIX-POINT PLAN."


Harris County Clerk Teneshia Hudspeth has done a great job since taking over the running of Harris County Elections. However, every candidate running in the upcoming Tuesday, November 4, 2025, "SPECIAL ELECTION," race for the vacant 18th Congressional District of Texas, must do their part to keep everyone honest.


STEP ONE: Every major candidate running against Harris County Attorney Christian Menefee in the race for the 18th Congressional District of Texas, should invest in a "VOTE COUNTING DEVICE" and have someone from their campaign, placed outside counting the number of people going in, and coming out of every "EARLY VOTING LOCATION" from the time the polls open until the time the polls close.


STEP TWO: When the polls close, Harris County Clerk Teneshia Hudspeth will release a "DAILY VOTE TOTAL REPORT" every day between 7:15 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. to the general public. When County Clerk Tenesha Hudspeth releases her numbers for the day, each campaign should compare its totals to what the County Clerk released for the day.


STEP THREE: If there's a difference of 100 votes between the number of voters on County Clerk Tenesha Hudspeth's report and what each campaign has on its "VOTE COUNTING DEVICE," this could indicate that there is a problem at the "EARLY VOTING LOCATION" where the discrepancy occurred.


STEP FOUR: If the discrepancy continues to occur, your campaign should contact the Harris County Clerk’s Office Elections Department, located at 15600 Morales Road, Houston, TX 77032, by calling (713)755-6965. Make sure to have documentation and a "SWORN AFFIDAVIT" from your team member who discovered the discrepancy.


STEP FIVE: If the Harris County Clerk's Office does not respond or address the concern, you should notify the Texas Secretary of State of the discrepancies your team is finding. The Elections Division for the Texas Secretary of State's Office can be reached at 1.800.252.VOTE (8683) or 512.463.5650.


STEP SIX: Every day, during the "EARLY VOTING PERIOD" from Monday, October 20, 2025, through Friday, October 31, 2025, Harris County Clerk Teneshia Hudspeth will release a "BALLOT BY MAIL" vote total. Every major candidate who is running against Harris County Attorney Christian Menefee in the race for the 18th Congressional District of Texas should view this report daily and run a "PHONE BANK" using VGP VAN SOFTWARE. All Democratic candidates should order this software to get the names and addresses of all the voters who live in the 18th Congressional District of Texas.


Christian Menefee's Campaign will use VGP VAN to chase "MAIL BALLOTS" and run up the numbers. NGP VAN is the leading technology provider to Democratic and Progressive political campaigns and organizations, nonprofits, municipalities, and other groups.
