The real threat to Texas is the California refugees who come like locusts and turn the state into what they fled. That and the Feds enfranchising millions of illegals so they can vote Democrat.

You know... there is some truth in that. Colorado has been feeling this for a long time. Another state with this issue is Idaho. It's basically a very conservative, traditional state, lots of hunting, fishing, camping, etc., liberal gun laws, just a basic, down-to-earth culture. Now Californians are pouring into the bigger cities there, especially Boise, and trying to get on city councils and start silly, feel-good social programs nobody wants or needs, and raise taxes to pay for them. Anti-Californian sentiment is VERY strong there, almost militant. And then you have Texas.....

Likely that APD Chief of Staff Brian Manley will be interim chief.

He was being considered for the San Antonio chief position last year, but withdrew after APD gave him a raise from 206K to 216K. Salary for the outgoing Houston chief is 275K. (cough, cough.....)

Yep just lovely. I have been worried about Houston for a while now. It keeps getting bluer and bluer. One of the many reason I moved out to the burbs in Richmond. I worry that if Houston keeps getting bluer we might lose Texas. If Texas goes blue then its game over as far as national races go. Not good..

It seems to be going that way, and the momentum is being carried almost entirely by the big cities: Austin, Dallas, San Antonio and Houston. Trump didn't win Texas by a very large margin: 52% to 43%. In Dallas, Hillary won 61% to 35%. San Antonio, 53% to 40%. Harris County (Houston) 54% to 42%. And so on.... check the map below:
