I will never apologize for being a Christian Conservative.

@SonjaHHarris I haven't. I am still the same man who wants the same things, we apparently just disagree on this one. Still respect you.

I am voting for Mayes Middleton for Attorney General. It’s been a long time since I’ve endorsed anyone in a race, but this one matters too much to stay silent.The Attorney General is one of the most important offices in Texas. It is the chief law enforcement officer of the state and the primary defender of our liberties. This race is critical. I personally know and respect both candidates. I’ve worked with both and spoken to them directly about this race. So let me tell you why I’m supporting Mayes Middleton. I met Mayes over 13 years ago. He was one of the very first people to financially support my campaigns. He never wanted to run for office himself, he was content using his own resources to help others fight for liberty. His donation record shows a consistent, decades-long commitment to conservative causes. Mayes has always been willing to take heat for what he believes. In a world where conservative donors are attacked and punished, he never flinched. Many of us in elected office today simply wouldn’t be here without his support. When he finally ran for the Texas House, he defeated a longtime RINO incumbent and delivered exactly what he promised. His signature fight: Ending taxpayer-funded lobbying was one of the boldest stands I’ve ever seen. He went straight at the heart of the establishment’s power. No one else had the courage to file that bill. Mayes didn’t just file it, he made it a public fight, took the incoming fire, and forced the issue into the open. That took real guts. Mayes isn’t flashy or as charismatic like me, he doesn’t crave the spotlight or put on a show. He’s steady, strategic, calm under pressure, and fearless when it counts. He needs nothing from anyone, and he cannot be bought. His conservative principles have never wavered, and he has proven he will fight for them no matter who is on the other side. Texas needs an Attorney General who is a selfless leader, a strong manager, a constitutionalist, and a shrewd strategist. Mayes has all of those qualities. I know it firsthand. The attacks claiming he supports Islam or Sharia Law are false and ridiculous. Mayes, his wife Macy, and their children are strong, God-fearing people who have sacrificed for this fight. They deserve our gratitude, not smears. This endorsement isn’t about tearing down my friend Chip Roy. I’ve supported him for Congress and I still do. But I believe Mayes Middleton is the stronger candidate for Attorney General. I have nothing to gain from saying this. I’m endorsing Mayes because I’m convinced he is the right man for the job at this moment for Texas. I hope you’ll join me in voting for Mayes Middleton for Attorney General. -Jonathan Stickland

@Oldwomen323 How many courtrooms do you think our last three AG's went into during the job? Get a clue about what they actually do.

Funny that Mayes Middleton can't even speak for himself. Mayes would not answer at the debates in Plano in February. He sat there like a pouty child after Aaron Reitz challenged him. Reitz also said Mayes Middleton is the least qualified candidate w/ zero relevant experience. Mayes is backed by Dan Patrick and other establishment politicians.

@anannoyedtexan @Pamilford That is because you are still looking at the BILL ANALYSIS and not the actual bill. Look at the bill, amendments, and final passage. Not some staffers thoughts on something.

@soundpwn @BoodroTex He's been asked publicly and he's explained it many times. It's not a "backroom deal." Sometimes good people make bad decisions, and sometimes they sit down talk, and gain different understanding. We are all banking on an idea of redemption ya know.

@RepStickland @BoodroTex And you asked him why? How can you possibly have an answer that doesn’t include a backroom deal? I mean , someone putting up $300k AGAINST you is a pretty heavy swing Sure looks like AG Mayes isn’t going to enforce the law blindly and faithfully

@RepStickland I'm very impressed by this endorsement, a refreshing change from negative attacks and lies too prevalent in these runoffs. Kudos for keeping it positive. I support Chip Roy as a strong conservative fighter most qualified for AG, but it's a reminder that we have 2 good choices.

@Wallaby AG needs to be good at hiring, managing, and leading those lawyers, that is @mayes_middleton The AG is RARELY if EVER going to be doing that work himself. They have thousands of cases going 24/7...

@RepStickland AG is very important, which means a lawyer with prosecutorial experience should be in charge. Mayes is not that man.

@gieblerp He is and has been against them. Both Mayes and Chip have been good on the issue.

@RepStickland Thank you that helped. Can you tell me if it is true that Middleton is for all the windmills? This is a huge problem in rural areas? @RepStickland . I can't figure out what's true and untrue about these two.

@RepStickland I guess you were too busy helping turn Tarrant County blue to notice that Kay Granger was missing for six months.

@anannoyedtexan Yes. Because there is other legislation that has been passed and being worked on to address the mosque problems. Legislation works together and effects each other.

@RepStickland So you’re saying the analysis is wrong and that if this bill passed as analyzed that it would not have extended the same zoning relief to qualifying mosque-affiliated religious organizations as to other religious groups here?

Yes ma'am, it is. THAT IS A BILL ANALYSIS WRITTEN BY A LIBERAL DEMOCRAT STAFFER OF THE CHAIRMAN OF THE COMMITTEE IT WAS ASSIGNED TO. Do you understand the difference? It's a report or summary, it's not the legislation. There is a huge difference. Did you read the bill like I did? No you didn't.

@RepStickland No, the “attacks” about his concerning miss on sharia law and protecting mosques is not a lie. And it’s proof Middleton is not prepared for the fight ahead.

Do exactly what this fool tells you to do if you want to forever be viewed as an employee, not a partner by the owner. Employees never advance, they get used until they are no longer useful. Then they are discarded. Partners who team up with the right moral people, build true wealth and futures.
