A poster on 16 brought up the notifications appearing on a Lina thread and comments disappearing. I indicated the same behavior was happening on this board as well. That comment was deleted.

Not question moderation, just posting what happened.

Just curious when this was shot since she's been so deathly ill lately.
Wow, that's just beyond brutal. From her list of accomplishments to bragging about the unused NRG hospital. Mealer needs to slice that in to some nice commercials.

https://hcus.harriscountytx.gov/About-Us/Administrators

That's the kind of **** people who have worked at the county have been talking about since Lina got in there as Rodney's pawn. Non-political administrators have gotten replaced by political hacks all over.

I'm sure Maj. General Nepotism was about as qualified for that job as Armando Walle was to be the "Covid Czar," or as qualified as Longoria was to be Elections Administrator.

*Hell, I think the County Administrator is there because he needed a job and had worked for Michael Skelley, the "renewable wind entrepreneur" and democrat politician & donor.

I am sick of consolation prize hires at the county and city level. I actually thought about applying for the elections admin position because I really like helping government function in an effective, nonpartisan way, but decided I'd rather spend my time being a professional musician.

Sounds like you have to be buddies with someone higher up to get one of those jobs.

And to take the fall when one of their schemes gets found out by Ted Oberg.

I've grown to hate the whole political insider world and politics in general. I sometimes wonder why I ever wanted to be in the middle of it, and I'm glad I got out, although I do wish Ed Emmett had been re-elected. He and I had some very good conversations about how to fundamentally restructure Public Health to make an actual difference in people's lives and deal with mental health directly instead of leaving it to the jail. It was all about how we help county government improve the lives of its citizens without any consideration of partisan politics.

Good governance ... what a concept.

Didn't really notice. Was actually thinking how relatively few Beto signs I was seeing versus 4 years ago when I saw side by side houses with houses with Beto and Dora signs. Was thinking more about her choice of campaign color.

I was shocked how many Mealer signs there are in river oaks. Once the rich elite mostly liberals turns on you, you are done.

Yeah, I think the color makes them difficult to read. Edit: Easier to read in the day than at night.

Look, I know it's rumor, but we've seen time and again, magic disappearances of 'new posts,' so I'm fine believing this until proven otherwise.

Vote Mealer.

You'd never guess that was a thing around here anymore. Elected office = easy way to give plumb contracts for massive, complicated undertakings to your brother-in-law's plumbing company.

I thought about this board when I was driving yesterday. As you take the ramp from 610 to 45 North, there is a 4x8 Hidalgo sign that someone painted "sucks" on, so it reads "Lina Hidalgo Sucks."

I giggled a little bit.

Neighbor just put up Dora, Beto and Lesley Briones signs in their yard. Dora's sign is definitely too busy and not contrasty enough to read.

I've only seen Lina signs in my hood in the yards that already had Beto and/or Leslie Briones signs.

Mostly the same houses that had "in this house" signs during the 2 years of the epipandemic, and then Ukraine flags before it was time to gear up for the midterms.

Same. And surprised at how many Beto & Briones (and our D Congress guy) signs that don't have the complete set with Dora.
