Bulldozers in Big Bend & Donald Trump back in Texas21 aug45 min

This week on The Texas Take, host Jeremy Wallace and Washington correspondent James Osborne break down the backlash over border construction near Big Bend National Park and what happens next there. And with President Donald Trump coming to Houston for a big fundraiser, they dig into the Republican National Committee’s huge fundraising advantage over Democrats and how that could impact Democrat James Talarico’s bid to defeat Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate race. They have exclusive audio from RNC chair Joe Gruters about why he's always in Texas and from Democratic National Committee chair Ken Martin who explained to a Texas audience why South Carolina and Nevada will be the first two states to vote in the Democratic presidential primary in 2028. Finally, with LBJ’s birthday approaching, they revisit the Texas president’s complicated legacy.
