Aubrey R. Taylor Communications was informed by 30-time Emmy Award-winning Investigative Reporter, Wayne Dolcefino, that former Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg has filed a "FORMAL REQUEST" for the FBI and U.S. Attorney's Office to open a Criminal Investigation into the possible criminal actions of Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis (top right) and Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare (top left). The "FORMAL REQUEST" for intervention was sent by Ogg on Tuesday, May 13, 2025, to Nicholas J. Ganjei (left middle left), the Interim United States Attorney for the Southern District of Texas, and to Douglas A. Williams Jr. (left middle right), the Special Agent in charge of the Federal Beureau of Investigations.

Harris County Attorney Christian Menefee's Office has a reported policy that allegedly authorizes the destruction of emails 30 days after an employee departs from Harris County, Texas. Why do you think that policy was developed? Listen. Harris County Attorney Christian Menefee made Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis the "DE FACTO" Harris County Attorney from the first day he took office after Ellis recruited him to take out former (Democrat) Harris County Attorney Vince Ryan back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in the Democratic Party Primary. That said, County Attorney Christian Menefee is nothing more than a "PUPPET" whose strings are being pulled by "THE PUPPET MASTER" himself, Commissioner Rodney Ellis. On Tuesday, November 4, 2025, Christian Menefee must be rejected at the ballot box by the voters of the 18th Congressional District, to foil the plan that has been hatched by Menefee and Ellis to make Commissioner Rodney Ellis the "DE FACTO" United States Representative for the 18th Congressional District of Texas.
Under no circumstances or scenario is electing Commissioner Rodney Ellis's "PUPPET" County Attorney Christian Menefee as the next U.S. Representative for the 18th Congressional District in the best interest of the people of the 18th Congressional District of Texas. The deadline for candidates to file for a place on the Tuesday, November 4, 2025, ballot to run for the vacant 18th Congressional District is Wednesday, September 3, 2025. Aubrey R. Taylor Communications is boldly imploring the people of the 18th Congressional District to "REJECT RODNEY'S PUPPET" and vote for one of the other candidates on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, in the race for the vacant 18th Congressional District of Texas when "EARLY VOTING" begins on Monday, October 20, 2025.

A Formal Request for the FBI to Open a Criminal Investigation into Commissioner Ellis and Sean Teare Was Sent by Ogg
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
Anyone who thought former Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg was playing around when she stated that there was a "QUID PRO QUO" in effect between Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis and Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg had better think again.
Aubrey R. Taylor Communications has obtained the "FORMAL REQUEST" for the FBI and the United States Attorney's Office to open a criminal investigation in the possible "CRIMINAL ACTIONS" regarding the dismissal of a case involving Barbie Lorrainne Robinson, the former Director of Harris County Public Health.
"This letter constitutes a formal request for the initiation of a federal investigation into potential violations of federal law arising from alleged public corruption involving Ms. Barbie Lorrainne Robinson during her tenure as Director of Harris County Public Health," stated Ogg.
Ogg stated, "The allegations include, but are not limited to, bid-rigging, wire fraud, and misuse of federal funds."
"Of grave concern is the handling and potential destruction of electronic evidence. Harris County Universal Services reportedly adopted a policy -- allegedly authorized by the Harris County Attorney's Office -- that automatically deletes all email communications 30 days after an employee's departure," Ogg explained.
She stated, "This contradicts standard records retention practices applicable to government communications."
"It is also assumed Ms. Ramirez's county-issued phone has already been wiped. Furthermore, it is anticipated that Ms. Robinson's legal counsel will soon pursue expunction of her charges, which may lead to the destruction of all evidence currently retained by the Harris County District Attorney's Office," Kim Ogg explained in her letter.
Ogg closed out her "FORMAL REQUEST," for the FBI and U.S. Attorney's Office to intervene by stating, "Given these circumstances I respectfully urge your office to take immediate action to preserve all relevant evidence and to initiate a full and impartial investigation into the conduct of Mr. Robinson and any individuals who may have facilitated or conspired in the commission of federal offenses."
"THE NEW GUARD."
It is time for a new crop of leaders to emerge in "THE BLACK COMMUNITY" during this pivotal moment in the history of our great nation. Commissioner Rodney Ellis and people like the late Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee and the late Congressman Sylvester Turner failed us as a community. They now put us where every gain could be wiped away.
Commissioner Ellis and County Judge Lina Hidalgo discriminated against "WHITE PEOPLE," in a racist "DIOBOLICAL SCHEME" to target "WHITE MEN" and remove them from positions of authority in Harris County, Texas, which I deem an act of supremacy, that has no place in local politics in any manor, shape, or form.
The late, great Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr 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."
In the coming months, I will lay out my plan to deal with Commissioner Rodney Ellis, rid Harris County, Texas, of his divisive agenda, and uproot everyone of his "PUPPETS," my investigative team and I can identify from public office in the upcoming 2026 Midterm Election cycle.

Christian Menefee is not what the 18th Congressional District of Texas people need as their United States Representative. Suppose Christian Menefee is allowed to win the race for the 18th Congressional District of Texas on Tuesday, November 4, 2025. In that case, he will hand over control of the 18th Congressional District of Texas to Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis, making him the "DE FACTO" U.S. Representative for the 18th Congressional District of Texas. The filing deadline to run for the 18th Congressional District of Texas is Wednesday, September 3, 2025. Early voting will begin on Monday, October 20, 2025, and end on Friday, October 31, 2025. Election day is Tuesday, November 4, 2025. Please vote for anybody other than Christian Menefee.
