Took a deep dive into how the Cuellars have used their power in South Texas. We found one sibling was a judge who heard no cases, and much more.

It's a great day to read my investigation, not about the alleged bribery scheme in the pardon, but a lot of other stuff! (like Rep. Cuellar's brother allegedly forcing his employees to campaign for him).

I want to thank President Trump for his tremendous leadership and for taking the time to look at the facts. I thank God for standing with my family and I during this difficult time. This decision clears the air and lets us move forward for South Texas.
This pardon gives us a clean slate. The noise is gone. The work remains. And I intend to meet it head on.
Thank you Mr. President, God bless you, and God bless the United States of America.
