- Description
- Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) on Monday downplayed rumors Texas could sell a public beach to SpaceX, after the company’s use of the area for rocket launches spurred controversy.
Elon Musk’s company occasionally uses Boca Chica State Park for rocket testing and launches, which means the public area at times has to be shut down, stirring backlash from some locals. Texas Monthly reported last week that the state’s Parks and Wildlife Department commission would discuss selling the beachfront state park to Musk at its meeting next month, stirring further debate.

- Just two weeks shy of the midterm elections, all eyes are on Texas as 37-year-old Democratic state Rep. James Talarico maintains a lead over his Republican competitor, Ken Paxton. A recent ReconMR/Siena Research Institute poll finds that 48% of voters express a preference for Talarico, with 44% favoring his opponent. For the first time since 1988, Texans might be gearing up to elect a Democratic senator. The reason? Republicans are not catering to the concerns of regular Americans.

- Description
- Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on Sunday defended President Donald Trump’s decision to waive sweeping Russian tariffs and sanctions enacted by the bill championed by the late Sen. Lindsey Graham, proclaiming “no one has been tougher” than the commander in chief.
Bessent appeared on NBC News’s Meet the Press and backed Trump’s decision to put a pause on the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act, a move that has drawn fierce criticism from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and both parties in Congress. Trump waived the legislation shortly after striking a deal with Russian President Vladimir Putin to lift the embargo on Russian diesel in an effort to lower energy prices ahead of the midterm elections.

“My decision on Russia is a simple one,” Trump said after signing an executive order on Friday that waives sweeping sanctions and tariffs levied against Russia, though Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent framed the development as a “60-day period so we can examine what’s going on” and said on Sunday “the only thing that has been lifted is the diesel embargo.”
