Now we know why Joe Moody did NOT run for District Attorney after all. Sorry, but this whole "I’m more effective in Austin" while making part-time pay to provide for a family of four did not make a lot of sense. But now it does. Moody will probably make more... Max Powers

Today is Constitution day.

Our governing document was signed in Philadelphia on September 17, 1787.

Thirty nine men signed the document.

I thank them.

There is a link at the top of this page that will take you to an electronic version.

I can’t help but wonder how much better off we would be if some of our legislators actually read it.

Look, the Senate race may very well be already over should no one else of note throw their hat in the ring. But should Marisa Marquez decide to run for Senate, show your enemy a little more respect. Can she be a bitch? Sure, but how is that different from... Max Powers

Are our El Paso police instructed to not direct traffic at accident scenes?

The was an accident on Mesa the other day that brought the roadway down to one lane from three.  The police that were on scene did not direct traffic.  Instead they allowed the traffic lights to control the intersection.

The result was a long line of cars waiting to get through from one direction and no cars from the perpendicular direction.  The police stood around waiting for a wrecker.

Hopefully our readers can let us know what the city’s policy is in this regard.

The water park/hotel people were given 18 months to decide whether to take our $97 million dollar gift that they can use to build a $100 million hotel.

See Water park incentive totals.

The clock started ticking in November of 2018.

Could it be that they want more?

Now I know everyone knows that I pitch for Team Marquez, but I know a winner when I see one. She could very well be a contender in the race for Senate. Yes, there is Mary Gonzalez, and Cesar Blanco. And apparently Pickett. But let us just look at the... Max Powers

It's been rumoured for a while. But it is now official. Jose Rodriguez is not running for re-election. Now does everybody line-up behind Cesar Blanco? Does Mary Gonzalez decided to switch races? Whatever it is. I just hope it is not a coronation. Max Powers

Watching the highlights of the debate last night and I see most of the Democrats on stage have thrown out the campaign bible. Pretty sure the first of the Ten Campaign Commandments is "Thou shall not piss off those who... Brad Kanus

Our county commissioners evidently want to raise their pay to $115,000 per year each.

In responding to our inquiry about what the readers suggest we do about UTEP football this comment came in:

“Yawn. If it pays for itself, OK. If it doesn’t, get rid of it.”

We found this web page published by the Texas Tribune:

https://college-sports.texastribune.org/colleges/university-of-texas-at-el-paso/

According to the web page during the 2015-2016 school year UTEP spent $9,699,853 on their football program.

Ticket sales amounted to $582,469.

The rest of the shortfall came from student fees, university funds, NCAA fees, and contributions.
