Texas has faithfully executed the law and played a vital role in national security — a role the state must now maintain and reinforce.
The hard lessons Texas learned at its border have led to the creation of the largest state effort in national security in our nation’s history. Now is not the time to forgo that effort.
Since the launch of Operation Lone Star, Texas has made significant and historic strides in asserting state sovereignty and fighting for the nation’s security. The effort has led to more than 49,000 criminal arrests, with more than 42,200 felony charges. More than 900 children have been rescued, and Texas law enforcement has seized over 573 million lethal doses of fentanyl — enough to kill every man, woman, and child in the United States and Mexico combined.
There are two key roles which Texas must continue to play: making Texas the most unfriendly state for illegal immigration and leading the fight against Mexican cartels in American communities. This requires a whole-of-government strategy that must be approached with the same level of commitment and tenacity that we had when fighting Al Qaeda and the Taliban.
We will work with our federal partners, we will deploy our resources as necessary and continue to build upon the momentum we have gained since 2021 under Gov. Greg Abbott’s leadership. […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
