So in the top ten, you've got Trinity Mendenhall in Spring Branch.
Michael BerryHOST

I'll also add that Commissioner Rodney Ellis said that his office did not pay to have Flock cameras in his precinct, and Briones just decommissioned hers.
Sarah GrunowCORRESPONDENT
6:40
Uh, so the strong opposition was really coming from Commissioners Adrian Garcia and Tom Ramsey.
Craig CohenHOST
6:45
And did they offer any particular reasons why?
Sarah GrunowCORRESPONDENT

All of that, and
Abbie KaminGUEST
4:30
we just actually worked with Commissioner Adrian Garcia recently in the free trade zone to close a tax loophole where one of leaders in industry was not paying upwards of $2 million annually in their fair share of taxes.
Abbie KaminGUEST
4:46
We, I'm pleased to say, have closed that loophole.
Abbie KaminGUEST
4:50
About $2 million annually will be coming to the county.
Leticia GutierrezGUEST
59:22
east harris county actually as a whole east harris county actually has an almost 20 less year life expectancy.
Leticia GutierrezGUEST
59:31
And that is something that even Commissioner Adrian Garcia has spoken about, because all of the detriments to health.
Leticia GutierrezGUEST
59:36
And I'm not saying that it's just strictly the industrial corridor, but it's all the other things, right? We have what is called food and healthcare deserts.
Leticia GutierrezGUEST
59:46
And then we have little to no access to public transit.
Tyler DrummondGUEST
35:15
Right.
Tyler DrummondGUEST
35:15
So, you know, I think that's just a minor example at the county level here versus I don't even want to start thinking about what Harris County looks like since the Democrats took over in twenty eighteen with Rodney Ellis and Adrian Garcia.
Tyler DrummondGUEST
35:31
I think we're starting to see Leslie Briones like I think it's appropriate to start questioning, you know, what the hell she's doing, you know, how big her budget's bloated, where they just just this past year with their historic property tax increase in Harris County.
Tyler DrummondGUEST
35:46
She's added, I think, close to 80 plus new staff members.
ChrisHOST

They have a spending problem in Harris County.
ChrisHOST
43:04
I would love to have Orlando Sanchez as our next county judge, get Steve Radek in there, replace Leslie Briones and Adrian Garcia.
ChrisHOST
43:12
That would be the best thing that Harris County could do.
ChrisHOST
43:15
Go back to when Harris County actually had a surplus instead of these billion-dollar deficits that they run and can never get caught up on.

43 MINS LATER

ChrisHOST
86:18
When the Democrats took over, there was a billion plus dollar surplus left by the Republicans who controlled Harris County, the commissioners and the Harris County judgeship.
ChrisHOST
86:28
And then when they left, it turned over to nothing but leftists.
ChrisHOST
86:31
The Leslie Brioneses, the Rodney Ellis, the Adrian Garcia, the Lena Hidalgo.
ChrisHOST
86:37
And now they're running almost a $400 million budget shortfall.
Chris XHOST
105:57
So definitely voting for Steve Raddick.
Chris XHOST
105:59
Vote against Adrian Garcia.
Chris XHOST
106:02
And even though he's not up yet, he'll be up later.
Chris XHOST

Evan MintzCORRESPONDENT

In reality, vested interests will go to the mat to defend the status quo.
Evan MintzCORRESPONDENT
8:33
Commissioner Adrian Garcia, a former sheriff and Houston police officer, once proposed that the county consider recommendations in a Kinder Institute study that identified millions in potential savings from consolidating law enforcement responsibilities.
Evan MintzCORRESPONDENT
8:48
A bipartisan coalition of constables basically threatened to kick him out of office for even mentioning the idea.
Evan MintzCORRESPONDENT
8:55
Cutting constables would also likely infringe on the state law that bans defunding the police, and the new law that prohibits commissioners from interfering with constables' contract patrols.
