- Texas politicians’ reactions to Trump announcing his 2024 presidential run
- The state Legislature mulling over how to spend its $27 billion budget surplus
- Two members of the Los Zetas cartel sentenced to decades in federal prison
- The U.S. Supreme Court dismissing a lawsuit against a redrawn Texas Senate district
- The Dallas County district attorney ending a lenient policy on prosecuting theft
- The adoption of a Native American child that took one Texas family to the U.S. Supreme Court
- The City of Kemah’s legal troubles and effort to break with an allied law firm
