African American male judges, such as soon-to-be former Judge DaSean Jones, former Judge Robert Johnson, and former Judge Darrell Jordan, will soon be forgotten, as nobody seems to even care about their legacy or achievements, but let the record reflect that I care. As for African American female judges, like Judge Dedra Davis, Judge LaShawn Williams, Judge Angela Graves Harrington, Judge Shannon Baldwin, Judge Tonya Jones, and Judge Tori J. Finch, it's heartbreaking to sit back and watch them fall victim to what appears to be a purging of "BLACK JUDGES" from local Harris County Judicial benches. My prayer for these honorable women of the judiciary is that they will open their eyes and use spiritual discernment before it's too late for them to defend themselves against challenges from within their own political party.
"FOLLOW THE MONEY."
One of the reasons why "BLACK JUDGES" don't have much money in their campaign accounts is that while they were trying to raise funds from January 1, 2025, to June 30, 2025, Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis was telling local donors to give their money directly to his campaign. Below, you will find a fundraising letter sent out by Commissioner Ellis on Friday, June 27, 2025, and another one emailed out by Commissioner Rodney Ellis on Monday, June 30, 2025.
"MISLEADING EMAILS."
In the misleading fundraising emails that Commissioner Rodney Ellis sent, he made his donors believe that he needed the additional funds to run a strong re-election campaign. Still, he is not running for re-election during the 2026 Midterm Election, and won't be up for re-election until the 2028 Presidential Election season. That said, Commissioner Rodney Ellis has been able to amass an astonishing $7 million in campaign contributions, as he has privately worked to sabotage the fundraising efforts of local "BLACK JUDGES" and other Democrats who are up for re-election in the 2026 Midterms.
Black judges are under siege by political operatives from both sides of the political aisle. The political operatives on the right are called "RINOs," which means "Republican in Name Only," And the political operatives on the left, whom "BLACK JUDGES" must watch out for, are called "DINOs," which means "Democrat in Name Only."
