Next Steps In The TEXIT Fight & An Interview With Ben Mostyn
Watch the video Welcome back to Texas News, where we dive into all things Texas politics and the future of independence in the state of Texas. On today's show, we begin with updates on our legal fight with the Republican Party of Texas over the TEXIT Petition. Instead of following the law, the Texas GOP gamed the system to keep Texans from voting on TEXIT. The fact is, the TNM followed the letter and spirit of the law, but the Texas GOP is still denying us legal recourse, thereby screwing over 139,000 TEXIT petition signers and millions of Texans who want a vote on TEXIT.
This fight is far from over, and one way to fight back now is by electing pro-Texas candidates, candidates who will truly listen to their constituents and put their needs and wants above everything else. In this episode, none other than Texas House Candidate for District 117, Ben Mostyn, joins us to discuss his background and what drove him to get involved in Texas politics. Having signed our Texas First Pledge back in August of 2023, Ben shares his views on the mass disconnect between the will of the people and the political establishment.

The Far Chair
I’m at my daughter’s house for Christmas. It got crowded inside, so I stepped out to the back porch where they have a round table with four chairs. Without thinking, I took the seat farthest from the door. I sat there for a minute before I caught myself wondering why I’d made that choice. Nobody […]
