"There's a Bible verse in the book of Hosea that talks about how people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. This passage goes on to talk about how rejecting knowledge can lead to destruction. So, listen up!!! When I was growing up, I used to always hear people say, 'the best way to keep things away from Black folks is to put it in a book.' So, I've spent my entire adult life trying to re-write that narrative. And, as the publisher of one of the largest African American owned newspapers in America, I've been afforded the opportunity to live my life on my own terms. But as the owner of Houston Business Connections Newspaper©, I have been forced to take some difficult positions over the years -- that simply comes along with the calling God has placed on my life. So look, I am imploring all warm-blooded Texans to research the people we are putting in office in the Lone Star State. Why? Well, we have some "ELECTED LEADERS" who are intentionally not giving us all of the facts about what's really going on as it relates to election fraud in America. So, to this end, please look at the videos below, and then read the entire "ELECTION INTEGRITY BILL" I am publishing to help you to become better informed and empowered as God's plan for your life continues to unfold."

"The video above gives you a good example of how the "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTING" scheme works in Harris County, Texas. So, as you view the video, please pay close attention to the part where the young lady with a State Rep. Harold Dutton Campaign t-shirt on says , "we've done 400 already," Now, what this young lady is talking about is "ABSENTEE BALLOTS" when she makes that statement. So, for the record, it does not take but one "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTER" to flip a local race in Harris County, Texas. I believe that it's possible for (1) one absentee ballot harvester to collect as many as 12,000 ballots during a Presidential or Midterm Election cycle for a candidate running countywide in Harris County, Texas. That being said, if a candidate with deep pockets like Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis goes out and hires (10) ten absentee ballot harvesters -- not only is he able to control the outcome of his race; but he could also control the outcomes of every race on the Harris County, Texas. How? Well, with access to (NGP VAN SOFTWARE) a team of (10) ten absentee ballot harvesters could easily secure 120,000 or more, absentee mail-in ballots in a 30 day period.
"This “ELDERLY VOTER” lived inside House District 142 at the time this video was recorded. In this video, she claims that her name is Ira Cruz or something to that effect – it’s hard for me to figure out exactly what she’s saying. However, what’s unmistakable is that this lady claims that Deborah Adams, the Harris County Democratic Chair for Precinct 259 helped her to fill out her “ABSENTEE BALLOT” and sent it back to the Harris County Clerk’s Office for her – which is illegal. According to this “ELDERLY BLACK VOTER”, she’s been assisted by Deborah Adams every year for a long time in doing this. Remember, this precinct is inside House District 142, which has been held by State Representative Harold Dutton, Jr., for years and years and years.
EXHIBIT #1 -- (VIEW LARGER)
"The image you see above is an example of three "ABSENTEE BALLOTS" with votes cast for only (2) two candidates of the more than (150) one hundred fifty candidates who appeared on the ballot in Harris County, Texas. Now, if you pay close attention you will see that these ballots only have the names of State Representative Harold Dutton, Jr. (HD-142), and U.S. Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee selected out of more than (150) candidates who appeared on the ballot.
EXHIBIT #2 -- (VIEW LARGER)
"You have to remember that Harris County, Texas has the longest ballot in the country. There were over 90 races on the 2018 Democratic Party Primary ballot covering about 150 candidates. Now, as you view the image of the "ABSENTEE BALLOTS" above you have to keep in mind that it's possible for some candidates who appear on the ballot to be "CHEATED FOR WITHOUT THEIR KNOWLEDGE" in Harris County, Texas and other counties. The ballots you see above are all from Precinct #259 – in which the voters cast their votes for ALL of the same candidates . However, pay close attention to how all of these supposed voters used the same style “X” to mark their ballots. Also, please note that (Precinct #259) is controlled by Harris County Democratic Party (Election Judge and Precinct Chair) Deborah Adams who happens to be a Black woman whose name continues to come up over and over again in connection to "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTING" in Harris County, Texas.
Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg received a lot of support from "POWER-BROKERS" in the Black community back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020, in her Democratic Party showdown with Audia Jones (African American female), Carvana Cloud (African American female), and Todd Overstreet (White male).
Democratic Precinct Chair and Judge Deborah Adams is pictured above with State Rep. Harold Dutton, Jr., and Harris County Tax-Assessor Collector Ann Harris Bennett. Please note, that there has been no credible evidence found that Republicans are involved in "ABSENTEE BALLOT" fraud in any way, shape, or form in Harris County, Texas. However, as it pertains to some Democrats, clear and compelling evidence that "CHEATING" is taking place has been clearly laid out on the "TEXAS TRASH TALK" website. The results of a 2-year investigation by Colleen M. Vera has been completely detailed and delivered to the Texas Secretary of State along with supportive documents included to support her investigation. However, all of the "DEMOCRATS" listed on this page are presumed to be innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.

PART 1: GLORIA PALMER DISCUSSES HOW SHE WORKS HARD GOING OUT AND GETTING THOSE ABSENTEE BALLOTS
According to Colleen M. Vera, after the 2016 Democratic Primary, a candidate for Harris County Constable (Pct 3), Jasen Rabalais, filed a lawsuit claiming that a campaign worker for another candidate, Michel Pappillion, “deliberately falsified, illegally completed or unlawfully influenced the ballots and early voting applications of elderly residents in Harris County.” The lawsuit was dismissed. But the audiotape above had been made by the Rabalais campaign after he found out that an “alleged harvester” was working for an opponent’s campaign.
PART 2: GLORIA PALMER SHARES EXACTLY HOW THE ABSENTEE BALLOT GAME WORKS IN HARRIS COUNTY
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
In case you don't know, providing unlawful assistance to a voter in connection with “ABSENTEE BALLOT” is a state jail felony from what I understand. However, having “ABSENTEE VOTERS” select one name on their “ABSENTEE BALLOT" and sign their signature, and then taking the ballot with you is something else altogether. In case you don't know, it also illegal to receive compensation for depositing the carrier-envelope in the mail or with a common or contract carrier folks. Gloria Palmer is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law. For the record, the audiotape above had been made by the Rabalais campaign after he found out that an “alleged harvester” was working for an opponent’s campaign.

No two signatures should be exactly the same -- right?. Well, after reviewing all the applications from State Representative Harold Dutton’s 2018 race, Colleen M. Vera, as part of her 2-year investigation into "ABSENTEE BALLOT HARVESTING" believes that Texas needs much more ACTUAL SECURITY for Texas' mail ballot system. She believes that signature comparison isn't enough. According to Colleen M. Vera, the only information the voter supplies is a signature -- so that is all that can be compared. State Representative Harold Dutton received twice as many "ABSENTEE BALLOTS" as the second-place finisher, Jerry Davis in the race for State Representative for House District 142, back on Tuesday, March 3, 2020.
Signature Comparisons Isn't Enough to Prevent Fraudulent Activity Whereas Absentee Mail-Ballots is Concerned in Texas
According to Colleen M. Vera: “My original plan had been to compare the voter’s signature on the ballot by mail application to the voter’s signature on the ballot envelope to see if any may not have been signed by the same person. But I found so many other issues that I got sidetracked from the signatures.
Unlike some other states, Texas does not require photocopies of ID to accompany the ballot by mail application. The only “security” Texas statute has in place for ballots by mail is a comparison of the voter’s signature on the application to the voter’s signature on the ballot envelope. Previous signatures going back 6 years may be compared if needed. If the signatures could have been written by the same person, the ballot is approved.
After reviewing all the applications from Dutton’s race, I have concerns that Texas needs much more ACTUAL SECURITY for our mail ballot system. Signature comparison isn't enough. - especially now that voters over 65 are receiving pre-printed applications for ballots by mail from the parties, candidates, and PACs. The only information the voter supplies is a signature - so that is all that can be compared.
In reviewing the pre-printed postcard applications from Dutton's race, we found numerous voters whose first or last names were the same as another voter, and their signatures were remarkably similar."
Some examples of signatures on applications for ballots by mail from TWO or MORE DIFFERENT VOTERS:

The 5 Star General Joins Aubrey R. Taylor Communications in Recognizing and Saluting Democratic and Republican Women in Texas Politics
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
I would like to take this moment to thank Gerry Wayne Monroe for finding value in supporting our "SISTERHOOD SERIES" movement. In case you don’t know him, Gerry Wayne Monroe “THE 5 STAR GENERAL” is a lifelong resident of Houston, Texas. ‘5 STAR’ was born and raised in the historic 3rd Ward in Houston, Texas. He graduated from high school back in 1986, from Jack Yates Sr. High School. For those of you who don’t know, ‘5 STAR’ is also a member of the 1985 Jack Yates Championship Football team. And get this, after a by chance meeting with investigative reporter Wayne Dolcefino, or what media mogul Oprah Winfrey calls an “AHAH MOMENT” he started Monroe Consultations. His firm specializes in Education advocacy and political consulting. And for the past 8 years Monroe has taken on well over 195 assignments, and (according to him) has solved every issue that he’s touched. “My specialty is holding elected officials accountable. And in accordance with my goal to do so, I recently went back to further my education in the area of Criminal Justice and recently graduated from Center Texas College,” he says. Thru his community and civic engagement, he's helped thousands of kids and community members regain the hope that they lost – I’ve seen this first hand.

Nominating the Wrong Candidates on "SUPER TUESDAY" Could Have Disastrous Consequences in the November 2022 General Election in Harris County
AUBREY R. TAYLOR REPORTS©
Make no mistake about it, who the people of Harris County, Texas choose to give another term to in 2022 must be about substance, job performance, judicial temperament, competence, and whether or not our members of the judiciary are following the law with their rulings. And that being said, in 2022, it is incumbent upon the voters of Harris County to evaluate the job performance of each and every sitting "ELECTED OFFICIAL" on a case-by-case basis and not as a group based on their political party affiliation, ethnicity, or gender.
THINKING ABOUT RUNNING?
If you are a candidate planning to run for office in 2022, you have to select the right candidate to run against. And the second most important thing to understand is that you have to select your race early, to avoid ending up in a crowded field of candidates on "SUPER TUESDAY" in Harris County, Texas. So, if you need assistance trying to determine which race to enter, please call (281)788-3033, and I will do my very best to answer any questions you may have.
