After more than 30 years in law enforcement serving and protecting my community as a police officer, constable, Fort Bend County Sheriff, an Army veteran, and six years representing this district in Congress, I have made the decision, after conversations with my beautiful bride and my girls over the Thanksgiving holiday, to focus on my family and return home after this Congress.

Before making this decision, I called President Trump personally to let him know of my plans. President Trump has always been a strong ally for our district and a true friend, and I wanted him to hear it from me first.

Serving this country in the military, serving our community in law enforcement, and serving this district in Congress has been the honor of my life. Thank you for your trust, your friendship, and your prayers.

Tell me you’re a pretentious a-hole without saying “I’m a pretentious a-hole”. She’s your WIFE, frickhead.

You are of course definitionally correct about wife versus bride, but how is he being "pretentious?

You seem like a very angry and unhappy person.

I'm thinking of pulling the lever for this one in the primary.

She has served as a Republican election judge, state delegate and member of several school district committees, including Strategic Planning, Citizens' Bond Oversight and Student Health Advisory Committees.

I'm not much on the political family dynasty BS. There's a few reasons why America's founders left England, and that's one of them.

his twin brother ran for sheriff of fort bend county after troy gave that up. he didn't win because fort bend county has turned blue. the congressional district is red so he has a good chance to win.

We need to get that POS County Judge removed. His arse should have been thrown out of office by now.

Two things.

1. He is getting out before the deadline so his brother can run in his place
2. TX has 6 GOPers that are "retiring". TX GOP needs to get their things in order with replacements.

He sees the writing on the wall. Midterms will be a bloodbath for the GOP. Americans have had enough of Trump

Trying to sound like masterpiece theater. These “bride guys” are silly and annoying. I’ll include Moon Griffon in that group even though I love his show.
