In South Texas, a grave scandal is unfolding—and almost no one in the national media is talking about it.
Voters in Texas’s 28th Congressional District are being asked to trust the results of a race that involved an indicted congressman, hundreds of voter complaints, and a judge who blocked an election review before announcing his plan to run for the same seat.
Congressman Henry Cuellar (D-TX), who is currently serving his eleventh term in the U.S. House of Representatives, is under federal investigation.
Cuellar and his wife allegedly received over $600,000 from foreign entities between 2014 and 2021. These payments came from an Azerbaijani state-owned oil company and a major bank in Mexico.
Court documents confirm that at least three of Cuellar’s top aides are cooperating with federal prosecutors. Despite the seriousness of the case, Cuellar was allowed to remain on the ballot in 2024 without any significant media coverage or political pressure to step aside.
After the election, Cuellar’s Republican challenger, Jay Furman, formally contested the results.
He submitted more than 80 affidavits and hundreds of legal declarations from voters who claimed that his name was missing from their ballots.
While the documents remain confidential, I was granted the opportunity to review them firsthand.
Each was a formal, signed statement made under penalty of perjury, alleging that Furman’s name did not appear on the ballot. As a result of these filings, the Fourth Court of Appeals ordered that the ballots be copied and reviewed.
The court ordered Judge Jose Tano, the county judge, to begin the ballot review process “immediately”.
Judge Tano refused to comply.
There was no full review of the ballots. County officials never conducted a proper recount. Instead, the matter was quietly dropped, and Furman’s objections were pushed aside.
The same judge who blocked Furman’s ballot review—Jose Tano—announced his “consideration” candidacy for the same congressional seat. He now wants to run against Furman in the GOP primary. That means a sitting judge refused to allow a Republican candidate to inspect missing ballots in a race that the judge himself will likely enter.
It is a direct conflict of interest, and yet no national reporter has investigated the story. No major outlet has asked why a judge with a clear personal interest was allowed to decide the outcome of the race.
The numbers also do not add up. In the 2024 presidential election, Donald Trump won the Texas district by seven points. But on the duplicate ballots, Cuellar supposedly won his House race by five points. That would mean a 13-point swing in a single district—at the same time, in the same place, on the same machines.
While this result isn’t totally out of the norm, it adds to a reasonable suspicion. Furman was the only Republican candidate running in that race. If he were missing from hundreds of ballots, the final result cannot be trusted.
Left-wing media spent years covering the Trump-Russia collusion hoax as if it were fact. When the investigation collapsed, there were no corrections and no accountability. The goal was never to tell the truth—it was to control the story.
But when voters in South Texas submit signed affidavits, they are dismissed. When government officials violate basic procedures, they are protected. And when a judge blocks a ballot review and then runs for the same seat, he is rewarded with silence.
The deep state is a network of government insiders, political operatives, and media figures who protect each other from consequences. This case shows how far that protection goes—from federal corruption in Washington to blocked recounts in Texas.
If Americans cannot trust elections, the rest of our system begins to fall apart. Every law, every vote, and every election depends on public confidence. Once that confidence is lost, nothing else works.
