BREAKING: Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport has scrapped a controversial plan to add an Islamic footwashing station. DFW made the decision late Friday after Gov. Greg Abbott demanded a review:

"Government-owned airports cannot favor one religion over all others.

DFW plans to install Islamic wudu washing facilities are illegal. I've directed a review of all state grants to both airports for possible revocation, and referred DFW & IAH to USDOT for investigation.

Texas will not allow illegal religious discrimination at taxpayer-funded facilities."

THIS IS THE LEFT: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is dragging gun-control politics directly into the process used to equip police officers.

His new executive order gives city officials 90 days to develop additional standards for purchasing firearms, ammunition and related equipment for city departments. This includes the Chicago Police Department.

Bureaucrats can now scrutinize vendors based on their business practices, regulatory inspection histories and whether firearms they previously sold were later recovered during criminal investigations. A firearm could be lawfully sold, stolen or illegally transferred years later, and the original vendor could still face scrutiny because a
criminal eventually got his hands on it.

Police officers do not get a second chance when their equipment fails. Their firearms and ammunition should be selected by experienced professionals based on reliability, performance and officer safety. NOT an activist-approved political test from City Hall. Police officers are not political props.
