I think you guys should keep arguing this issue, that will be impossible to prove either way.

Emmett didn't want to be known as the guy that demolished the Astrodome.

it put Houston on the map in the 1960's (along with the space program)

Nobody gives two ****s about the Dome.
If you were 10 in 1960, you're 72 now.

Taunting law enforcement seems like a really dumb idea. So, about what I expect from Dora, and I hope she keeps it up!

She's received her marching orders. Fight it out in the court of public opinion.

Have to think that means her lawyers aren't too optimistic about how this is going.

I think it means she knows one of her people is turning on her and the indictment is coming. So she is getting out ahead of it to make it seem like she predicted it as the next step in the dirty tricks, not the logical outcome of turning a peon in a criminal organization against their boss via a plea deal.

She needs better lawyers. If she's in the crosshairs and one of her underlings has signed up a plea deal, my advice would be to keep your head down and keep your mouth shut.

She will high tale it to DC unscathed and have pos female celebrities singing her praises on social media

I am loving this drama. Couldn't happen to a worse person, and to be taken down by your own party nonetheless. Her squealing now, means something is about to drop and she is framing the optics. I think she will find out she has far less support than she believes, at least locally where the voters votes actually count. She may be a darling outside of Harris County, but those people cant vote.

Someone needs to ask her why her party's DA is orchestrating political attacks against her.

She wants to frame it as republican political attacks, but she can't.

And why hasnt Boss Ogg given a rebuttal yet?

She keeps digging herself in deeper. Amazing to watch.

Should be Federal charges against Dora. Why aren't the Feds investigating this?

""Stuff is about to get real," said Brian Wice, KPRC 2 Legal Analyst, who described the showdown between the county's judge and district attorney as a "steel-caged death match."

Directing a tweet at the DA is not a sound strategy, according to Wice

"I wholly disagree with a media strategy that - as they say in West Texas - is all about poking the bear," said Wice.

Wice believes Hidalgo is trying to get in front of the fallout from the investigation during an election year.:

to be clear, I don't think it's her lawyers that suggested this strategy. It's her campaign folks.

Just a reminder that she's only here because Beto ran...

And he's running again.

But that was also the last election which allowed for "straight-ticket" ballots.

And there's no enthusiasm around Beto this time. He'll lose to Wheels even worse than he lost to Cruz.
2018 truly was a perfect storm that led to the current situation. You had mid-term elections after Trump had just unexpectedly beaten the D's golden girl 2 years prior. The party in power pretty much always loses seats in the midterm because the opposition is fired up from losing the last election. Now include Trump's caustic personality while essentially dismantling any and all of Obama's legacy. Then you had Beta as the new cool kid on the scene that all the virtue-signaling suburban women could get behind. And he was running against Cruz, who D's already hate because he destroys their feelings with sound logic and positions.

Toss all that in a bowl and mix in straight-ticket voting along with a dash of Emmett running a virtually non-existent campaign and a pinch of Dome envy, and you get the **** sandwich that we've been eating for the last 4 years.

If any one of those things didn't happen, Dora is still nothing more than a D underling waiting for her turn after taking her prescribed beating in the 2018 election. Instead she destroys Harris County while using it as a springboard to get to DC as an "up and comer".

Local elections matter.

Calls to Nader have not been returned and her attorney has declined to comment.


I seriously think this says a lot when the other two's lawyers were squawking about how innocent their clients are. I read it as I'm working with the prosecutors and not saying *****

I'm just hoping she brings down Rodney Ellis along with her.

Ogg doesn't have to say a word. As a matter of fact, silence is not only the correct strategy, its the best strategy.

Ever watch How I Met Your Mother? Remember the "slap bet"? We're at the point where Ogg has one slap left. She'll dish it out when she deems it appropriate.

If you're right, we really are dealing with someone that is an inexperienced moron that is also obsessed with the smell of her own farts. Eschewing sound advice from a criminal law lawyer in the name of the pursuit of your fledgling political ambitions is.....unwise.

Name a local news story that the media has been this hard over.

I've never seen anything like this.

I'm surprised any networks are reporting it.

I'm surprised we ever heard about it in the first place.

I don't care why. Maybe her and her bf grabbed the last set of crab legs at HEB and he's been forever hutt burt.

I only care that it's actually happening. It's real…and it's spectacular.

Isn't Ogg a Soros plant? Perhaps there is a thinking that Dora is so poor, she will cost them control over Harris County? I dunno, but she clearly pissed off the wrong group.
