00:00:01.000There is calls from the Republican Party right now to limit the governor's power on their way out in this lame duck session.
00:00:09.560State Representative Brian Harrison is calling for a special legislative session to limit the governor's emergency powers before you're sworn in.
00:00:16.540He says, I warned years ago that no governor, Republican or Democrat, should have these broad emergency powers.
00:00:21.340Now that Texas has elected a Democratic governor, the urgency is undeniable, the inaction intolerable.
00:00:27.400listen there's no question greg abbott has used his emergency powers in a way that is abusive
00:00:33.800he has delivered a billion dollars in open contracts to his donors my commitment is that
00:00:39.580i will only use emergency powers to deliver to the people of texas at a time when texans want
00:00:45.300relief and i would hope no legislator would block that efforts toward that effort towards relief
00:00:51.740If this is about, listen, we can't keep fighting this way.
00:00:55.180These divisions are tearing us all apart, tearing our state apart, our country apart.
00:01:00.060We need to come together to forge a new way forward that is just about back to basics, delivering for Texans.
00:01:07.700And I invite Representative Harrison and any other elected official, any other leader to come and join with me in this effort to really usher in a new day in Texas.
00:01:18.540When you say these divisions, what do you mean by that?
00:01:21.740I mean, the partisan divisions, the divisions that have said we can't work together, we can't try to collaborate and make sure that although we disagree on important things, that we find where we have common ground and forge a way forward.
00:01:38.500It is not about moderation. It is about where can where do we have common commonalities?
00:01:45.860And can we not maximize those opportunities? Because there is so much we have in common across party lines so much.
00:01:53.580We all want strong public schools. We all want to make sure working families can make it in Texas.
00:01:58.100That is not a Democratic agenda. That is a Texas agenda.
00:02:01.660And so we got to be able to find a way to come together and deliver those things for Texans.
00:02:06.480This morning, I have directed the chief and HPD through an executive order that we will change our policy in regarding contact with ICE.
00:02:23.480I do this to begin a healing process, reduce fear and anxiety across our community.
00:02:33.880I've said many times, elections matter. I've been in contact with the new state leadership. I've been in contact with bipartisan members of the legislature. Quite frankly, this should be a nonpartisan issue. I'm responsible for Houston's finances, safety and welfare.
00:02:54.400I had to, the last year, listen to the current leadership in Austin, the ones that told us that our finances were at stake.
00:03:06.540You know, it's easy for critics to say, fight them back when they don't have to pass a city budget.
00:03:14.540We depend on state resources for most of the city services, health department for certain, our transportation, our public safety.
00:03:23.980So I'll say once again, I'm proud of our record.
00:03:29.140I'll take credit for not having turmoil on the streets of Houston, like all the other major cities.
00:05:07.180The policy will be, when you see there's
00:05:10.200a warrant for this new charged person,
00:05:14.100When you get him or her to the jail, you will notify ICE.
00:05:19.080And then it's the responsibility of the Harris County Jail and
00:05:23.620Harris County government to react accordingly.
00:05:28.420It will certainly improve our public safety.
00:05:31.540So I'm pretty excited to be able to ask the chief to address it with his well
00:05:42.460trained, compassionate. I want everyone to realize what a complex job young officers have when they're on the street of Houston. Following our ordinance a reasonable amount of time. That's so subjective. Have a supervisor come. Those days are behind us. Now we deal with jailable offenses. And this would definitely move us in the right direction. I believe we'll become the model.
00:06:12.460Saturday, 7 November, year of alert, 2026.
00:06:16.500Dr. Peter Navarro is nice enough to take time away to join me today
00:06:19.900when we get into it with Dr. Navarro here in a little while.
00:10:13.680I'm not, you know, being hyperbolic here.
00:10:16.380I'm repeating Governor-elect Hinojosa's own words.
00:10:19.440She just announced within the last day that on her first day in office,0.96
00:10:23.440One of her first actions is going to be to utilize unconstitutional emergency powers to start fixing prices.1.00
00:10:31.820Price fixing is on its way to Lone Star State if Texas Republicans don't act to limit her ability to behave like a dictator.1.00
00:10:39.200Talk to me about that. By the way, Abbott had Texas locked down for a thousand days during COVID.
00:10:44.760Yep. OK, the newly elected attorney generals in Newsweek magazine saying Brian Harrison is right.
00:10:50.780I've worked with Brian Harrison for years that these powers are beyond what the powers of the Constitution says in the state of Texas.
00:10:58.220But I want to go back. She's already announced it. She's already announced one. She's going to have many more.
00:11:02.540Talk to me specifically about what she's announced. So she's what she's going to do is our energy sector.1.00
00:11:07.800She's going to go start wreaking havoc on our energy sector, which is a very big part of our economy.1.00
00:11:12.660OK, as everyone knows, in the state of Texas, she's going to use utilize her emergency powers to start fixing prices in our electricity markets.0.80
00:11:20.460And while some people are going to go, oh, that sounds good.0.99
00:11:22.420She's going to get prices. I want to get prices down, too.
00:11:25.000But you do it by deregulation. You do it by increasing supply.
00:11:28.900You don't do it the way the socialists do or the way communists or the commissar would have done it, which is just by having the government set a price.
00:11:36.740Because every time throughout every socialist economy country in human history that you have price fixing, what do you almost always have?
00:11:45.100Shortages, massive shortages, whatever they try to set the price of almost guarantees people won't have enough of whatever that is that they're price fixing.
00:36:05.080I mean, the guy's running on fumes from clips from 10 years ago where he's, you know, sassy in hearings with Obama officials.
00:36:11.620hasn't done anything since, but appeal to lobbyists in the moderate wing and to give
00:36:16.920cover to weak Republicans under his once-had fame for being tough in hearings during the
00:36:22.220Obama years. We need leadership now. If he becomes a minority leader, the limitations
00:36:27.760on growth for our movement are there. He will be held out as the conservative or populist
00:36:33.260position, and that's the limit, and the rest is trading with K Street. We can't have that.
00:36:37.340And there aren't perfect options out there.
00:36:39.700Scalise is the best one because he gives us an opportunity to negotiate and to build and to transfer power accordingly to the next generation.
00:36:48.220Jordan's just we're stuck in the status quo.
00:36:50.660He sat back and watched his government get weaponized during the Biden years.
00:36:54.420He promised a weaponization committee, $20 million.
00:40:18.540But they haven't actually shot at each other.
00:40:21.020But there's now a NATO contingent in Poland of British, France, and German troops, not that they have that many, getting ready to come in for some kind of ceasefire in Ukraine, which I doubt.
00:40:34.860But you put NATO troops in Ukraine, you've got World War III, because the Russians were like, hey, if you're here shooting, we shoot back.
00:40:42.300So the Democrats are pushing for that.
00:43:47.560So many brands today claim to stand for American values,
00:43:51.040but most of the time, it's all talk and no action.
00:43:55.040That's what makes Patriot Mobile different.
