To Unite Our City, D E I had to D I E.
Great job by the majority of our city council members who on May 7th did not let bribes and intimidation keep them from doing the right thing. The council members who brought an end to this commission should be praised for helping the city get past the very divisive and destructive agenda DEI brought to our city.
DEI has been turning into just another liberal smoke and mirrors campaign where advocates claim the objective is for advancing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. In practice a more accurate meaning of DEI could be Division, Evil, and Insanity.
The "D" focuses on what divides us rather than on what unites us.
The "E" represents Equity which is about equal outcome rather than equal opportunity.
The "I" is all about advancing people based on things other than merit and is the enforcement arm of Diversity.
Our city had no business using our tax dollars to take sides on moral and other social issues.
-Steve McDaniel, Precinct 3967 Chairman

In Rowlett we are blessed to have a tiny handful of courageous Pastors who take their message of faith, love and righteousness beyond the safety of their own pulpits and into the public square. We also have a tiny handful of pastors who it appears have sold out to "the dark side" and are supporting wicked agendas.
Finally, it looks like we have the vast majority of loving and righteous pastors who have the courage to speak up for righteousness in the safety of their own pulpit but for some reason haven't taken their message out into the community. So, while we are blessed that many of our pastors uphold Biblical standards in the pulpit, it's curious to know how bad it has to get and what it is going to take to get them to take their message of faith, love and righteousness out into the public square. Encourage and support your pastor when they stand up for righteous principles in our community. Our society really needs their encouragement and guidance. |

Rowlett Pastors Poll
From May 23rd thru June 10th in 2023 I contacted 25 of our Rowlett pastors to find out what they thought about the city promoting the "Sweet Taste of Pride" event that it scheduled for June 28th. The results were most certainly not what I expected. GO HERE or to the “Rowlett Pastors Poll” page above to see the results. -Steve McDaniel

Dear Friends,
Today, in response to disturbing reports of Google colluding with the Kamala Harris Campaign, I took action - demanding answers from Google CEO Sundar Pichai related to the Kamala Harris campaign's use of Google search ads to manipulate news headlines in a deliberate attempt to mislead voters by falsely suggesting endorsements from major news publications.
In my demands to Google's CEO, I highlighted Google’s clear and shocking bias against President Trump, including censoring stories relating to the July 13 assassination attempt on him in Pennsylvania.
Equally disturbing, Google searches for President Trump consistently return and prioritize results to show positive stories of Kamala Harris first, and "Google Autocomplete" does not show President Trump’s name in response to searches for “President," "Donald," and similar terms.
Now, Google is allowing the Harris campaign to purchase advertisements within the search results that mislead readers by linking to news stories with altered headlines that are biased in favor of the Vice President.
Google has a disturbing track record of implicit bias and election interference that overwhelmingly benefits one political party. If Google is unable or unwilling to take basic steps to safeguard the integrity of our elections, I will work with my colleagues to use every tool at our disposal to ensure they are held responsible for illegal election interference.”

President Biden announced last week that he would take executive action to effectively normalize high numbers of illegal immigrant encounters on our southern border. His executive order requires the border to be closed if daily encounters reach 2,500 per day. While this threshold is lower than the average we have seen throughout the past three years of Joe Biden, it essentially says that if this number isn't reached, the border will remain open. We must also bear in mind that because its an executive order, Biden can still revoke it any time he wants.
Like many of you, the question I'm asking is: Why has it taken 42 months--1,300 days--for Biden to finally consider taking any action to address the border crisis that presents an unprecedented national security threat to the United States?
Up to this point, all Joe Biden has done is blame Republicans, "root causes" like climate change and his predecessor, President Donald Trump for this crisis. Does Biden actually recall that he himself was the one who, on more than 60 occasions implemented policies that have created the border crisis?
Could it be that it's an election year, that folks will vote in four months time, and that he is very underwater in the polls for his handling of the border crisis he created?
House Republicans passed our own comprehensive piece of legislation, H.R. 2, the Secure the Border Act over a year ago. This bill, which still sits on Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer's desk would immediately put in place Trump-era, common sense policies to stop the flow of illegal immigration.
The facts speak for themselves. Under Joe Biden's tenure, we have seen nearly nine million illegal encounters, which is about five times as many as under President Trump.
Biden can pretend he's taking action to secure our southern border, but until he reinstates the tried and true policies of President Trump, this crisis will continue.

Rep. Pat Fallon

Legislation Curbing International Organizations such as WEF, WHO, and the UN
In May of 2024, the Louisiana Senate unanimously passed Senate Bill 133, a pivotal measure aimed at safeguarding the state's autonomy against external influence from international organizations. This legislation prohibits the utilization of communications from select international bodies—namely, the World Health Organization (WHO), United Nations (UN), and the World Economic Forum (WEF), as a basis for action within Louisiana. It aims to effectively curtail the jurisdiction and authority of these organizations within the state, establishing Louisiana as a "sanctuary state" in matters governed by such entities. The bill was signed by the Governor of Louisiana on May 22nd and became effective after that date.
Unfortunately, states must constantly be playing defense against the overreach of federal authorities and now international organizations to prevent their undue influence. By restricting the implementation of rules, regulations, fees, taxes, policies, or mandates originating from these bodies, Louisiana aims to fortify its sovereignty and shield its citizens from external policies that may not align with the state's interests and values.
The foundational principles of state rights, enshrined in the Constitution, underscore the importance of protecting state's autonomy. In an era marked by increasing globalization and interconnectedness, it is incumbent upon states to assert their independence and resist encroachments on their sovereignty. Louisiana's decisive action in pushing strong legislation such as Senate Bill 133 serves as a beacon of leadership in this regard, demonstrating a firm commitment to self-determination and local governance.
As we commend Louisiana for its proactive stance and longtime push for this issue, it is evident that similar measures may be warranted in other states facing similar challenges. Therefore, I advocate for the introduction of legislation like Louisiana Senate Bill 133 in Texas. By restricting the implementation of policies, mandates, and regulations from international organizations within our borders, we can assert our independence and safeguard our unique identity as a state.
As we look to the future, it is essential that Texas remains vigilant in defending its sovereignty against all forms of external interference. By enacting measures to protect against undue influence from international organizations, we affirm our commitment to the principles of liberty, self-determination, and state autonomy.
Now more than ever our states need to introduce and pass legislation which embodies a steadfast defense of state sovereignty and a reaffirmation of the fundamental principle that governance should emanate from the consent of the governed. As Louisiana charts its course as a beacon of autonomy, may other states follow suit in safeguarding their rights and freedoms from external interference.

Dear Friends,
Happy New Year! I hope your 2024 is off to a good start.
New Year, New Laws
In Texas, if a bill does not specify an effective date, it goes into effect on the 91st day after the date of final adjournment of the session in which it was passed. Over 700 bills passed by the 88th Legislature went into effect on September 1, 2023.
A bill may specify a different effective date for various reasons. In order for it to take effect before the default date, it must receive a vote of two-thirds of all the members elected to each chamber. Some legislation becomes effective contingent on an event or on the adoption of a proposed constitutional amendment. This recently happened when voters approved of property tax relief and a cost of living increase for our retired teachers after the legislature passed bills placing the proposals on the ballot. GO HERE to read more.

Rowlett Mayor Blake Margolis appears angry over Dallas County Elections awarding early voting location to a Rowlett church.
Intervenes to Take it Away from the Church.
Intervenes to Take it Away from the Church.

Why is he (whom this sight now refers to as divisive Blake) so opposed to elections being held in centers of faith? There are over 65 faith based voting centers in Dallas County. (Go HERE to see Dallas County approved voting locations as of 9/5/23). So what is our Mayor's real beef with faith based organizations?
If you view this video from a recent city council meeting, you will see the Mayor makes the argument that elections should not be held in faith based locations. Divisive Blake's bias appears to be very transparent against people of faith. He makes a reference to Muslem locations but if you look at the list, you will see the County includes them as well as churches. Take a look for yourself and you decide. -Steve McDaniel, Precinct 3967 Chairman |

Rowlett Mayor divisive Blake Margolis shows blatant disrespect for our U.S. Congressman Lance Gooden.
Falls far short of his duty once again as Mayor to unite us, rather than to divide us.

It is important for Rowlett citizens to have our Congressman’s support but when the city’s Mayor refuses to provide a friendly environment for our Congressman, it hurts all our citizens.
With this in mind, I am calling attention to divisive Blake's inappropriate representation of Rowlett citizens and I am calling on him to issue a public apology to Congressman Gooden's office. It would serve him well to get this done right away because it's the right thing to do and this issue isn't going away until he does. It's extremely important to a free and fair election that the Mayor provide the Congressman and his staff the same equal and fair treatment as he does with all other candidates. We are pulling for our Mayor to get these types of behavior behind him and to move forward in a mature, righteous and inclusive manner in the days to come. To our Mayor's credit, he showed up and was cordial to our Congressman during his visit to Rowlett on September 6th. Steve McDaniel - Precinct 3967 Chairman |
I have come across this screenshot of a conversation from divisive Blake, to a representative for U.S. Congressman Gooden's office, Jennifer Alden.
This behavior does not represent the City of Rowlett well from our Mayor. It appears that he feels like if someone dares to ask questions about and/or investigates the 2020 election, they are "irresponsible and anti-democratic" and don't "respect our country's Constitution and electoral process." I'm not sure what type of Democracy he is referring to, but in America we should always be free to ask questions, challenge, and investigate elections.
The biggest problem here is not about who is right about this subject. What is most concerning is that this type of behavior is divisive. Much like the divisive leadership Blake is providing as the City of Rowlett continues to promote the LGBTQ+ agenda, through which the transgender wing of the group is largely responsible for much of the ongoing sexual child mutilation that is taking place in our country today, and creating a pathway for men to intrude on women's sports. For the city to encourage this type of behavior is both crazy and evil. These are behaviors and decisions that do not help our city or bring us together as a community.
Free speech and making our elections fair is essential to our Democratic Republic, so that means it's important to ask questions and investigate. It's okay for divisive Blake to have his opinions but he must be fair and inclusive when fulfilling his duties as Mayor.
