Episode 31 - Straight Talk-The Bunker Bob Show 23.08.2023

During its gathering in Dallas this past weekend, Texas Young Republican Federation voted to cut ties with the Republican Party of Texas for as long as Matt Rinaldi remains chair of the state GOP.

The answers may surpri...

Developers reign supreme in Texas, which is why it should come as no surprise that the little town of McLendon-Chisholm is bowing to the will of a major developer who has the mayor and city council in it's back pocket. If you think you can escape the corruption of this little city, think again. It's just one example of many that is swallowing up paradise for the all mighty dollar, not in the name...

Texas State Rep. Charlie Geren has become the poster child for "Republicans In Name Only!"

155: House Speaker & Minions' Middle Finger to GOP 12.01.2023

GOP Politicians Attack Conservatives on Speaker Vote 05.01.2023

Holding to a principled position that they DO NOT TRUST career politician Kevin McCarthy to be speaker has put Freedom Caucus members in the proverbial gun sights of McCarthy sycophants, including Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw who goes beyond calling them un-American , but paints them as people with far more sinister intentions. What's really going on and when will the race for US Speaker of the...

STOP Putting Feckless Men in Speakership 04.01.2023

Both the US & Texas House of Representatives have earned a GOP Majority that is at risk because those we elect continue to install the same kinds of feckless Republican leaders as Speaker.
