Title: Drag Queen Court Ruling: Judge Allows Sexual Performances in Front of Kids
Topic: Transgender Agenda

Discussed by Jonathan Covey
with Texas Values (TxValues.org)

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed may be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.

On September 26, 2023, Federal Judge David Hittner out of Houston ruled that the state’s new law protecting kids from sexualized performances is an “unconstitutional restriction on speech”. Hittner further stated: “Not all people will like or condone certain performances. This is no different than a person’s opinion on certain comedy or genres of music.”

Texas Values Director of Policy Jonathan Covey disagrees wholeheartedly with Judge Hittner’s decision. Today, Jonathan gives more details about the case and what we all must do going forward to protect our kids.

Click here to read more details on this interview from Jonathan Covey.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What was the purpose and goal of SB12 the “Stop Drag Queen Shows for Kids Bill”?

Did drag queens argue before the Federal Judge that their performances are “art”?

Did drag queens argue before the Federal Judge that SB12 violated their First Amendment rights, claiming that they have the right to perform in front of minors? Jonathan explains why he believes that this case could wind up being heard by the United States Supreme Court, saying: “There is no such thing as a kid-friendly drag show.” He then gives a short law lesson on why obscenity is not protected under the First Amendment.

What are “time, place, and manner restrictions”?

How will Judge Hittner’s ruling effect SB12 before it is heard before the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals? What if the 5th Circuit rules against Judge Hittner?

The battle to protect our children is far from over. What can we do to protect them? Jonathan says: “We know that this kind of stimuli… has a detrimental effect going into teenage years and early adulthood… it increases the chances for anxiety and for depression… We have a duty as individuals to make sure kids are protected.”

Why is this case being heard in a Federal District Court instead of a State District Court?

The books that parents and grandparents want removed from the children’s section at the Llano Public Library can be compared to triple X-rated pornographic material. Would the library allow young children (or even teenagers) to easily access Penthouse or Playboy?

Did the former librarian of the Llano Public Library voluntarily remove the extremely harmful and inappropriate books from the children’s section? Mary explains that the majority of people wanted to quietly handle the situation; however, a handful of angry citizens have now sued the county in retaliation. She goes on to discuss other details of the case and why many citizens believe the books should not have been purchased with taxpayer money period.

Are parents and grandparents becoming more involved in protecting young eyes from indoctrination and exploitation by LGBTQ groups?

Topic: Texas Politics

Discussed by Jonathan Covey
with Texas Values (TxValues.org)

The second Texas Special Session began on Saturday, August 7, 2021 and the Texas Democrats are still AWOL. Will they ever show back up to work?

Jonathan Covey is the Director of Policy at Texas Values, the largest statewide non-profit organization dedicated to standing for faith, family, and freedom in Texas. Today, he discusses some of the issues on the agenda for the second Texas Special Session and if the Democrats decide to do their job.

Click here for more on this from Jonathan Covey and Texas Values.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What was the outcome of the Health and Human Service Texas Senate committee meeting concerning boys in girls’ sports? Does the Senate bill include college sports, or just middle/high school sports?

What has Governor Abbott addressed concerning this issue – specifically at the college level? Why won’t he allow it to be debated?

The Texas Democrats have filed suit claiming they have a Constitutional right to boycott going to work. Does their argument hold water?

Have Texas Republicans ever left the state, refusing to work and costing tax-payers money? HINT: Nope.

One item that must be addressed and resolved during this second Special Session is redistricting. However, accomplishing this task also relies on the latest Census information, which has not been released yet. When will this be released and can an agreement be made without the Texas Democrats in office? Will a THIRD Special Session be required? How will this affect future elections?

Title: Texas Heartbeat Act Being Challenged by Planned Parenthood
Topic: Pro-Life Issues

Discussed by Jonathan Saenz
with Texas Values (TxValues.org)

Planned Parenthood and a host of other Texas pro-abortion organizations filed a lawsuit against Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, Texas district judges, Texas Health and Human Services, and others regarding the Texas Heartbeat Act (SB8), which prohibits abortions after the detection of the preborn baby’s heartbeat.

Jonathan Saenz, President of Texas Values, has more details about this ground-breaking, first-of-its-kind Heartbeat Act and the ridiculous lawsuit against it. Jonathan calls the bullying attempt a “baseless scare tactic with no legal footing”.

Click here for more on this from Jonathan and Texas Values.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Will SB8 hold up under judicial review?

Is SB8 a novel approach to reducing the number of abortions? Jonathan explains why he believes it is a “wise approach”.

How can a private citizen possibly know if a woman is going to get an abortion after her baby’s heartbeat has been detected? How can a private citizen possibly know if a doctor is going to perform an abortion on a baby who has a heartbeat? How can a private citizen prove that the baby has a beating heart?

Bottom Line: If the Texas Heartbeat Act stands, will it save babies?

It is sad that the war on Christmas has necessitated a “Merry Christmas Texas Project” but that’s where we are today. Jonathan Saenz, the President of Texas Values, has more details about State Representative Dwayne Bohac’s HB308, a one-page law passed in 2013.

Christmas has been recognized as a federal holiday by the United States since the 1870s. Landmark U.S. Supreme Court cases have made it clear that such expressions and displays are permissible. Since the passage of the Merry Christmas Law, Texas Values has helped defeat efforts across the state to attack Christmas.

Part 1 of 3

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed may be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.

Austin ISD has adopted a horrific, graphic, disgusting sex education program. Many, many parents are appalled and are protesting the material.

Even if you don’t live in Austin ISD, you MUST pay attention to these segments. The homosexual agenda is alive in each and every public school district in Texas.

David Walls, Vice President of Texas Values, has more details.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Could the same sex education material being distributed to Austin ISD school-age children be handed out by parents on the playground?

Why did David and other leaders copy images from the material to distribute to parents?

NOTE: The curriculum is over 1,100 pages long!!! Why? Is this to discourage parents from reading all the material before it is given to their children?

How long does it take to inculcate children in sex education?

How many Austin ISD school board members voted in favor of this radical sex education material?

David Wells doesn’t believe that any of the board members even read the material. “This is weaponizing education that is in direct conflict of most parents and families.,” David says. Listen as he explains why…

Part 1 of 2

You have probably heard about James Younger, the 7-year-old boy whose mother wants him to chemically castrate him in order so she can have a “daughter”. The father, who is divorced from the child’s mother, absolutely objects to this medical procedure. Thank goodness, the Judge has ruled BOTH parents must agree to all medical procedures, and the Texas Attorney General’s Office has intervened, as well.

Mary Elizabeth Castle is a Policy Advisor for Texas Values. She says: “Children should not be forced to undergo life-altering and dangerous gender transitions. This is a victory for parental rights and common sense.”

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Can a 7-year-old sign a marriage certificate, have an abortion, sign a binding contract, or direct a doctor to perform a tonsillectomy?

Why is it important to know that James’ mom and dad are divorced? Does it matter if one, or both of the parents, may be homosexual?

Did the parents opt for a Judge or jury trial? Was the mom or dad asking for full custody?

What was the jury decision? Why did the Judge intervene?

Why did the mom think her son wanted to be girl? Did she backtrack on her original statement about the situation?

Discussed by Jonathan Saenz

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed may be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.

Drag Queen Story Time is typically a hyper-sexualized event marketed and used to entice young children, ages 3-5, where a man dressed as a woman reads stories which promote exploring topics of sexuality and transgender issues. Many of the readers also perform at homosexual adult venues. Some of the readers have even been known to hold the children in their laps during the event. In Houston, two of the volunteers were convicted of sexual abuse against minors.

Jonathan Saenz, with Texas Values, obviously has some major concerns over these Drag Queen Story Hours. What are you thoughts? Send us comments here.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Why are those with a Christ/Biblical centered worldview often called “haters”?

Are parents and grandparents commanded to protect children in their care from sexual predators?

Is society today elevating evil to a status of good?

What is the danger in allowing Drag Queens access to read to and to physically touch children during Story Time in public libraries?

Are parents just unaware that these type of events are going on? Or are they turning a blind eye in the name of “tolerance”?

Topic: Criminalize Actions of Christians

Discussed by Jonathan Saenz
with Texas Values (TxValues.org)

Left-wing legislators have formed Texas' first "LGBTQ Caucus" promising a "transformative" and "strategic" agenda. This includes proposed laws that would attack people of faith so aggressively, we can legitimately describe them as “Ban the Bible” bills.

Jonathan Saenz, the President of Texas Values, has an important update for us today. Pay close attention!

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What is the goal of Texas’ first LGBTQ Caucus?

Are they really trying to “Ban the Bible”? Is this literal or figurative?

Would Christian counselors be punished for simply having a Bible visible in their office?

Depending on where their church service is held, would some pastors be punished for preaching about certain sins, such as homosexuality? This is a loaded question with a complicated answer. Listen close!

Do they want to remove the words "Mother" and "Father" from Texas birth certificates?

Is the homosexual agenda becoming out of control?

Would Christians in Texas who do not comply face fines, jail time, or other criminal charges?

In a major victory for Texas Values and Houston taxpayers, a federal judge has once again rejected the City of Houston’s efforts to transfer a lawsuit over the illegal benefits it provides to same-sex couples into federal court.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

Former Houston Mayor Annise Parker attempted to pull the wool over taxpayer’s eyes and allow same-sex couples to receive the same benefits as legally married couples. Would this cost tax-payers money?

When the taxpayers discovered this, what did they demand?

How many times has the City of Houston lost this court battle since 2013?

Is the City of Houston wasting taxpayer funds in their efforts to win this case? NOTE: The last judge has ruled that the COH must pay the defendant’s court fees! When will they stop?

What is an “amicus brief”? How many people have filed one or signed one on behalf of the Houston taxpayers?

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed might be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.

While we were all distracted by the killing of a gorilla in order to save a young boy’s life, Congress was doing the unthinkable – again. Last week, over 40 Republicans in the U.S. House joined with Democrats to allow the passage of a dangerous amendment from Rep. Sean Maloney (D-NY) to an appropriations bill. The amendment would place into law President Obama's radical LGBT agenda and punish those who try to exercise their religious freedom. Thank goodness only one lone Texas Republican – Rep. Will Hurd (CD 23 - San Antonio) – voted IN FAVOR of the Maloney Amendment.

Jonathan Saenz is an attorney and President of Texas Values. He is here today to discuss the seriousness of the Maloney Amendment.

Questions/Issues Discussed:

What does “gender identification” mean and why has it become a “class classification”?

What should Christians do this November? Should we vote? Stay home? Vote third party? This is a tough, tough decision and Jonathan Saenz has some suggestions. One resource is the Texas Values Free Voter’s Guide website.

The LGBTQ agenda is attempting to force communities to implement “all sex bathrooms” through different legislation. The latest city in Texas is Mesquite. Listen in as Jonathan gives details about this case; it’s not just about the bathroom anymore.

How did we get here? Can we reverse it?

Title: What Will be the End to this Game?
Topic: Marriage and the Church

Discussed by Jonathan Saenz
with Texas Values (TxValues.org)

Now that the Supreme Court has issued its ruling in favor of same-sex marriage, the left says it’s time for us Conservative Christians to just get over it. Move on because, after all, it’s a non-issue, they say. Well, no. We won’t “move on” and we most certainly will not just “get over it”.

The left doesn’t want equality; they want superiority. But that is never gonna happen. They started it and we plan to finish it – and finish it strong – in support of traditional marriage as God intended it to be. We haven’t backed down during the last 42 years since Roe vs Wade. We haven’t stopped fighting the murder of millions upon millions of innocent babies just because we’ve lost a few battles here and there. What makes them think we’ll just give up now?

Jonathan Saenz is a Christian attorney. He says, “It’s not only a hollow argument, it’s very presumptuous and intolerant…When you shut Americans out of the system, they will respond vigorously.” He goes on to discuss why it’s so important that government employees continue to have the right to work in a peaceful, non-threatening environment where they can make decision based on their religious convictions. This is America and the 1st Amendment still stands. The Supreme Court decision does not change that fact.

“We’re seeing the true colors of the homosexual advocates and it’s not the rainbow flag,” Jonathan points out. It’s the color of intolerance and restricting religious freedom. The homosexual mafia has been crying for decades about their 1st Amendment rights being trampled on. Now that they have won a small victory, they want to strip away the 1st Amendment rights from everyone who doesn’t agree with them. So, in reality, they have created more conflict!

Title: Faith, Family, and Freedom
Topic: Same-Sex Marriage and the Church

Discussed by Jonathan Saenz
with Texas Values (TxValues.org)

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed might be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.

Texas – where we stand for faith in God, family, and freedom to worship and to practice our religious faith at church, at home, and in the market place. Jonathon Saenz, President of Texas Values, discusses HB3567, filed by Representative Scott Sanford (R-McKinney). HB3567 protects the religious freedom rights of pastors, clergy, and churches in Texas relating to marriage. HB3567 makes also ensures that the government cannot use civil or criminal action as a means of punishment on this issue.

There is a lot of alarm across the state of Texas and the nation concerning same-sex marriage. We’ve seen the government force business owners to provide their service to same-sex couples against their religious beliefs. We’ve seen the Mayor of Houston threaten to subpoena pastors’ sermons concerning the issue. Many wonder what the government will do next.

The strength of the family is the core of our religious freedom. It is very important for churches, pastors, and members to pay attention to the legislature and what bills are introduced concerning religious freedom, specifically concerning same-sex marriage. Jonathon Saenz says, “Some bills can be used as weapons against religious freedom.” He believes it is vital to stay informed and stay involved.

Title: The Unthinkable in Texas

Discussed by Jonathan Saenz

Disclaimer: Use caution when listening to this segment around young children. Issues discussed might be upsetting or hard for little ones to understand.

Plano, Texas – yes, PLANO – has done the unimaginable. They have bowed to the LGBT radicals and have passed a Peeping Tom Law, like Houston and San Antonio have recently.

Some of the issues on the LGBT Wish List from 1972: Repeal the legal restriction on the sex or number of people entering a marriage. Repeal all laws governing transvestitism and cross-dressing. Release of ALL sexual offenders incarcerated for crimes related to sexual orientation. Repeal all age of consent laws. Federal funding for all homosexual organizations and advocacy groups. Sex education in public schools should be presented by homosexuals advocating their lifestyle as the preferred way of life.

Listen in as Jonathan Saenz discusses these issues and what could happen to your community, state, and the nation if the LGBT radicals continue to be successful. And what Plano? What does the new law in Plano allow?

The time to act is NOW. If you live inside the Houston City Limits, please log on to www.NoUNEqualRights.com  to see how you can help gather signatures this week.

If you live outside the city limits, we need your help, too! We need you to pray. Cover the workers with prayer daily. Pray for their safety and health. Pray that God will use them to touch others.

Future generations depend on the outcome of this petition drive. If we do not gather enough signatures, the people will not be allowed to vote on this ordinance in November. It might take years and years, even decades, to reverse the damage that Lesbian Mayor Annise Parker has polluted our city with.

The Merry Christmas Law has already helped one school district this Christmas season. A PTA email in Frisco ISD sought to ban a “reference to Christmas or any other religious holiday” and “no red/green or Christmas trees.” When this news arrived at the office of Texas State Rep Pat Fulton, quick action was taken to remedy the mistake.

Students, teachers, administrators, and parents have the right to say “Merry Christmas” and to use what decorations they want to. In case questions should arise, download a summary of the law to have on hand at www.MerryChristmasTexas.com.

San Antonio is the seventh largest city in America and it is now ruled by the wishes of the radical homosexual movement.

We may never know the entire inventory of the backpacks carried by the protesters. But one thing is perfectly clear: good vs. evil was on display for all to witness.

During the Holocaust, one church was near the railroad tracks. As the train would come by during church services, to mask the screams of Jews on their way to the death-camps, those inside the church ‘just sang louder’.

Never forget what happened in Austin recently during the passage of the Pro-Life bill. Evil was on display for all to see and to witness. What are you doing to save one more life?
