Well I saw Mealer donated to Dora's campaign so……..

I did a search on the Texas Ethics Commission website and didn't see any donations from her to anyone. Lina only had 10 donations that I saw. Then again, it's a really clunky website.

If Emmett really lost to someone with only 10 donors I cantnimagine his L could get more embarrassing. It would be funny if it weren't destroying the city.

You only need one if it's a bank rolling billionaire.

Yea very true but without looking at the site those donations would have to come from several places so as not to reach personal donstion limits, correct? So wouldn't a bankroll billionaire need to funnel money through more than 10 places? It was really a joke anyways, we all know who gets all these trash bags elected.

Candidates for county office don't file with the Texas Ethics Commission, so the only contributions you'll see there are from state PAC's. You have to download individual reports for county candidates here: https://ethics.harrisvotes.com/CampaignFinanceReports/COR.aspx

And then sift through the excel sheets. I've looked at some of Lina's from the first campaign; she took in a lot of out-of-state and out-of-county contributions before most voters here even knew who she was.

Gotcha. I figured I was overlooking something.

Looks like she raised $172k.

A lot from local Plaintiffs' attorneys (Jim Adler, Kurt Arnold, Jason Itkin, Judge Kyle Carter, Judge Dwight Jefferson, Domingo Garcia, Terry Bryant, etc.) were some of her biggest individual contributors.

Some typical PAC money (MoveOn.org, ActBlue, Emily's List, Ascend, etc.)

I did not see del Morals Mealer

Went back and reread the email. I was confusing Vidal Martinez with Mealer.


"Martina LeMond Dixon-donated 9 times to President 0bama in 2012 alone, she called me and stated her husband made the donations in her name."

"Vidal Martinez donated $1000's to Dora"

Sunday afternoon...

Quote:

HOUSTON - Houston police opened fire on a robbery suspect after a high speed chase on Sunday.

It happened near a busy shopping plaza in west Houston on Westheimer near Windchase.

Ifeatu Obianw was driving down Westheimer around 4 p.m. Sunday, when he found himself in the middle of the mayhem.

"I'm hearing gun sounds. Then a police car came around," Obianw recalls. "They took me out, put me in the back of the cop car for safety, and they were still shooting."

Houston police say officers were pursuing a robbery suspect who took them on a chase and drove recklessly for nearly 20 minutes.

He crashed into several vehicles along the way including Obianw's car.

"He hit my car. But before he hit my car, his hand was looking like he was about to shoot," Obianw said.

Houston police say they haven't confirmed if the suspect had a gun or not.

They're also working to figure out who fired first.

Obianw shared video with FOX 26, showing the moments officers opened fire on the suspect. You can see the suspect raise his arms as if he were shooting.

That's when four officers opened fire, striking him multiple times.

The suspect had to be taken in serious condition via LifeFlight to the hospital, where he would undergo surgery.

He is expected to survive.

First, Chief Fenner says he did fire upon officers, now he's saying he didn't.

Five of them...

Houston Police reports five officers shot at McShan, hitting him several times.

The officers are identified as Sergeant M. Grossbard of the Property & Financial Crimes Division and Officers A. Ledford, D. Nguyen, J. Williams and R. Zhao of the Westside Patrol Division. Sgt. Grossbard was sworn in as an officer in June 2008, Officer Ledford in December 2018, Officer Nguyen in March 2019, Officer Williams in May 2020 and Officer Zhao in December 2019.
Why would HPD ID them?

You get out playing like you have a gun like that and you reap the consequences. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I saw that!

A lot to unpack here.

Dude has a dash cam facing him. Probably one in front but facing him as well. WTH? Is he an Uber driver or something?

He just blasts all over the place right thru his window and windshield. And wildly. No idea where any of those bullets went.

Was he driving a Charger or a Challenger?

I don't know them personally, but all of McIngvale's campaign contributions have been to Republican and Tea Party causes. Not a single donation, that I can find, to a local Democratic candidate. He was definitely a big contributor to Mitt Romney and to Ted Cruz. In fact the only "liberal" thing I notice in his campaign donations is a lack of donations to Trump.

Heard Mack speak at an industry group lunch last Thursday. Pretty clear he is fed up with our current state of affairs.

No they are not. He's always been a conservative. Quit spreading fake news. There is huge difference in being compassionate and being a Liberal.
