New HISD Superintendent

Today is my Mom’s BD. She left us back in 2017.  I still think of her a lot.

From today’s Chron:

Houston ISD trustees plan to name Millard House II as their lone superintendent finalist Friday, tapping the leader of Tennessee’s Clarksville-Montgomery County School System to guide the district past a tumultuous period of instability, according to sources familiar with the selection.

A board member in Clarksville-Montgomery County, Jimmie Garland, told the Houston Chronicle that House informed him of the impending move during a phone call early Friday. A second source with knowledge of the search confirmed the pick.

Congrats.

Commentary would say the P in George P. Bush stands for, but I won’t.  The guy is a total joke.

How does the General Land Office award zero dollars of Hurricane Harvey federal funds for flood projects to the two hardest hits entities – H-Town and Harris County? 

I guess George P thinks sticking it to Mayor Sylvester Turner and Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo scores him points against AG Ken Paxton in the 2022 GOP Primary.  I don’t think so. That’s not a smart political move.

Clear Lake, Kingwood, West Houston, and Spring Branch are in H-Town and provide a ton of votes in a GOP primary. These communities also took major hits from Harvey.  They need flood project dollars.

These aren’t funds that were awarded by the Joe Biden Administration.  They were awarded under Donald Trump.  They are Trump dollars.

Dumb move.

The voter suppressors targeted Harris County. I guess this P idiot is jumping on the attack Harris County wagon.

The Astros are back in first place.  It helps that five starters are batting .300 plus.  Let’s hope we stay in first as we play the next three in Arlington.
