Over the weekend, Frisco residents elected Islamic and Hindu endorsed candidate, Mark Hill, as the next mayor of the North Texas suburb during the June 13 runoff election.

With all precincts reporting in Collin and Denton counties, Hill garnered a majority of the votes against Republican Rod Vilhauer who was endorsed by Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX).

Hill campaigned on a message of unity and community engagement, focusing on bringing together Frisco's diverse and rapidly growing population.

Following his victory, Hill thanked residents across the city for their support and emphasized the importance of connecting with voters from all backgrounds.

All results are unofficial until canvassed. Frisco will canvass the election results at the summer work session June 23.

Karmelo Anthony has been found guilty in the murder of Austin Metcalf.

Anthony admitted to stabbing Metcalf at a track meet in Frisco last year but claimed he acted in self-defense.

The verdict follows days of emotional testimony from student athletes, police officers, forensic experts, and coaches who described the confrontation that ended with Metcalf's death on April 2, 2025.

More than 100 protesters — split between supporters of Metcalf and Anthony — packed the area outside the courthouse ahead of the verdict. Tensions flared and the two sides clashed before the jury's decision was read.

Was the correct verdict made? Let us know your thoughts below ⬇️

Governor Greg Abbott this week sent a letter to all Texas public institutions of higher education, halting increases in undergraduate tuition and fees for the upcoming academic year.

"I directed all public institutions of higher education in Texas to freeze undergraduate tuition and fees. Higher education must be attainable for Texas students and families," said Governor Abbott. "Access to affordable, high-quality education is essential to ensure Texans learn the skills needed to secure family-sustaining jobs and meet the demands of a growing workforce."

Tuition and fees will remain frozen through the 2026-27 academic year for all two-year and four-year institutions, including both general academic and health-related institutions.

Since 2023, Governor Abbott has directed tuition and fees in Texas to be frozen at all public intuitions of higher education. Just this past session, the State of Texas made historic investments in higher education and increased student financial aid funding by $328 million to improve access to state financial aid programs for eligible students across Texas.

Early this morning, Governor Greg Abbott directed the Texas Higher Education Board to issue a ceast & desist to newly founded Texas American Muslim University at Dallas (TexAM).

Governor Abbott released the following statement:

"I directed the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board to issue a Cease & Desist to "TexAM," an unauthorized Islamic educational institution operating illegally in Texas.

If they refuse to comply, legal action will follow.

Texas will not allow illegal educational institutions to operate in our state."

According to TexAM's website, "TexAM University is the first university in the United States to offer STEM degree programs embedded with mandatory courses in Islamic Studies. The university provides specialized programs that integrate modern technology with Islamic principles, empowering students with skills in digital innovation while upholding Islamic values. Our graduates are prepared to excel in diverse fields such as Islamic finance, digital services, and religious education in today’s technology-driven world."

Their academic calender has classes starting as early as this summer.

Governor Greg Abbott has issued a letter to the city of Grand Prairie threatening to pull their public safety grants if they don’t cancel their planned “Muslim-only” water park day that was set for June 1st, 2026.

Governor Abbott released the following statement on X:

"A city-owned water park in Grand Prairie openly advertised a "MUSLIMS ONLY" event -- closed to the general public.

That's religious discrimination. It's unconstitutional. I signed HB 4211 into law -- banning Muslim only no-go zones in Texas.

The City must cancel the event and commit to never allowing something like it again by May 11th, or lose $530,000 in state grants.

Let this be a lesson to local officials: Facilities funded by ALL taxpayers are not just for a subset of Texans."

If Grande Praire doesn’t comply by May 11th, they will be required to repay $530,000 that they received from the state.

Representative Brandon Gill (R-TX) is one of the fastest rising members in Congress.

His current mission? To bring a stop to the mass migration that has overwhelmed Texas, and many regions of America.

Culture and assimilation seem to be the bedrock of his philosophy, and he doesn't believe outsiders from regions like Somalia and India bring any benefit to American society.

Do you agree with him? Let us know below ⬇️

Texas Tech transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby is checking into a residential treatment program for a gambling addiction.

He’s under NCAA investigation in the wake of the discovery of Sorsby making thousands of bets via a gambling app.

QB Brendad Sosrby recently transferred to Texas Tech for a record $5 million dollars to finish out his collegiate career.

According to ESPN sources, Sorsby bet on Indiana football while redshirting for IU as a true freshman in 2022, a season in which he played in a single game as a reserve.

From Texas Tech coach Joey McGuire: “We love Brendan and support his decision to seek professional help. Taking this step requires courage, and our primary focus is on him as a person. Our program is behind Brendan as he prioritizes his health.”

Statement from the NCAA: "Due to confidentiality rules put in place by NCAA member schools, the NCAA will not comment on current, pending or potential investigations. However, the NCAA takes sports betting very seriously and is committed to the protection of student-athlete well-being and the integrity of competition. The Association works with integrity monitoring services, state regulators and other stakeholders to conduct appropriate due diligence whenever reports are received."

🚨 REP. BRANDON GILL JUST SURGED TO THE FLOOR AND UNLEASHED

10 House Republicans BETRAYED us by voting to give amnesty to 350K Haitians!

"There's roughly 350,000 Haitians covered under temporary protective status in the United States. Of those, an estimated 91% entered this country illegally. 69% came in, an estimated, under the Biden administration."

"In other words, what this bill does is CODIFY open borders of the previous administration that the American people overwhelmingly rejected the last election cycle."

"NO serious country tolerates virtually unlimited numbers of foreigners breaking and entering, and yet that's what this bill does!"
