New flooding haunts Hill Country residents a year after historic disaster
Residents experiencing flooding on Thursday similar to 2025’s catastrophic July 4 event describe a new sense of preparedness but the same intense anxieties. KERRVILLE — Soyla Reyna stood outside Calvary Temple Church, taking a momentary respite from hours of manning the flood displacement shelter at her home church in Kerrville on Thursday. “A lot of it was unbelievable,” she said as the rain outside the church patio began to let up. “People are devastated by the reoccurrence.” Over the course of the morning, Reyna had seen nearly 50 people come to Calvary Temple. They sought supplies and shelter after rapidly rising water swept away their homes and RVs, scenes reminiscent of the devastating flood that tore through the region a little over a year ago.

Fifth Circuit Clears Deepwater Natural Gas Port, Tosses Challenge by Climate Activist Groups
The ruling is being touted as a win for President Trump’s energy agenda. A federal appellate court has cleared the way for the Delfin LNG deepwater port in the Gulf of America, rejecting a legal challenge by three left-wing environmental organizations. The groups had sought to vacate the project’s federal license. The organizations failed to demonstrate that a single one of their members had suffered or faced an injury traceable to the project. The ruling is being touted as a win for President Donald Trump’s energy dominance agenda. The port would feature a cluster of floating vessels moored miles offshore, liquefying natural gas and loading it onto tankers bound overseas. The company asked the Department of Transportation’s Maritime Administration (MARAD) and the U.S. Coast Guard for approval. In compliance with the Deepwater Port Act (DPA), MARAD notified Texas and Louisiana—as adjacent states—so their governors could approve, disapprove, or conditionally approve the project. Neither governor responded. MARAD then published five federal register notices, held six public hearings in the two states, invited public comment four times, and prepared a 2016 environmental impact statement (EIS) exceeding 1,800 pages—analyzing the project’s effects on the environment, socioeconomics, transportation, and air quality.

TAMU’s Race and Ethnic Studies Institute Receives Over $100,000 Annually
Critical race theory and identity politics research is lavishly funded in Aggieland. Texas Scorecard has previously reported on the Race and Ethnic Studies Institute (RESI) and its professors, whose output runs the gamut of left-wing grievance studies. As part of the initial reporting on RESI, Texas Scorecard filed an open records request for its budgets over the past five years. Based on those records, RESI receives $100,000 in annual support from Texas A&M for “Operating funds.” It has also received a series of smaller amounts for “tuition support,” “dean’s initiatives,” “payroll support,” and “salary support.” With this funding, RESI’s advisory board, faculty affiliates, and graduate student affiliates produce grievance-studies-themed content. RESI financially supports this content through a series of fellowships and grants. Texas A&M did not respond to multiple, detailed requests for comment. A question regarding future plans for this institute was asked multiple times.

The search for Wylie ISD’s next superintendent is underway
