Rowlett Mayor divisive Blake Margolis continues to embarrass the city, this time by engaging in a petty fight against a local church as a voting location.
His ongoing nonsense makes it look like he is competing to be the worst Mayor in Rowlett's history. It appears he may have qualified. First Liberty - Jorge Gomez: City officials in Rowlett, Texas don’t want Freedom Place Church to serve as an early voting location. What’s more, the city is trying to shut down the church. Last week, officials sent a letter threatening to revoke the church’s certificate of occupancy, claiming it had been “issued in error.” This would force the congregation to close its doors within 10 days. For the second year in a row, Freedom Place Church was chosen by election officials to be Dallas County’s only early voting site in Rowlett. Election officials said the church meets all the legal requirements to be a voting location. However, in an email to other city officials last September, Rowlett Mayor Robert Margolis said, “Rowlett City Council will not allow voting to occur in any church building. That’s not where voting belongs, and especially when the Pastor of this specific church has endorsed a candidate who will be on the ballot in November.” GO HERE to read more. |

Divisive 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.
That was our headline from around this time last year.
OOPS: It's September of 2024 and the Mayor is at it again!
As a reminder, the following is an example of the stink he created back then:

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.

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. 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.

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,
A proposed lithium-ion battery storage facility in Van Zandt County has the potential to harm public safety, the environment, and the future well-being of our county.
Last month, I urged the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to delay the Amador Energy Storage Project until critical safety, environmental, and community concerns are addressed. Here’s why this project poses serious risks:
Lithium-ion battery fires, such as the multi-day fire at a battery storage site in Escondido, California, and the explosion in Surprise, Arizona, which severely injured four firefighters, are extremely difficult to extinguish and can burn for days, emitting toxic gases like hydrogen fluoride. Like many rural communities, Van Zandt County lacks the specialized firefighting equipment and water resources necessary to handle such emergencies, putting first responders and residents at great risk.
Notably, the proposed facility is located near farmland, homes, and critical infrastructure, including a pipeline. Any toxic leaks or spills could irreversibly damage our soil, water, and air, threatening agriculture and property values.
Despite repeated requests, developers have failed to share critical safety plans, including necessary details on fire suppression systems, explosion prevention measures, and decommissioning protocols.
I am working with federal, state, and local officials to stop this project. Our community must not be treated as a testing ground for rushed industrial projects that fail to consider local safety and environmental needs.
Please see the full letter below, and know that our fight is not over.
Sincerely,

The US Secret Service FAILED to protect President Trump from harm at the July 13 Butler, PA rally. We demanded accountability from (now former) Secret Service Director Cheatle at our hearing soon after.
One day later, Director Cheatle resigned. But there is still more work to be done to ensure that the failures the nation witnessed that fateful day in July NEVER happen again to anyone under the Secret Service's protection.
From what we have learned from in our Task Force's investigation, there are NINE WAYS that the Secret Service could have simply done its job.
We have interviewed dozens of local law enforcement and federal agents who were on the ground in Butler, PA. You can read more about what we have found in our Task Force's interim report, here.
For Texas & Liberty,
Rep. Pat Fallon

Editors Note:
Angie is a very nice lady who you can warm up to very easily. I doubt you could find a better friend.
That being said, if you are a conservative, she is not going to represent you well in the Texas House. She is however going to do a better job than anyone the Democrats will run against her. Personally, just about every time I ask her to represent me as a conservative on important issues, she will vote the other way.
It looks like she is more interested in getting re-elected by cuddling up with the money broker elites in the "uniparty" than she is in representing her base. So, until we can get a conservative elected to represent us on the Republican side, we have to settle for backing her in the general elections. As someone who would much prefer to have a conservative represent us in our district, I am calling for anyone who is a conservative and will listen to and represent their base, to step up and run against her in the next Primary.

Rowlett Mayor 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.
