Jeremy is off this week. So in the meantime, enjoy the conversation I had with Austin radio legend Jeff Ward, who was curious about whether sports betting and casino gambling might be legalized this year. Well, here's an idea: What if those were both approved on the condition that the tax revenue would fund a school voucher program? It would certainly please some of the wealthiest people putting money into the campaigns of Gov. Greg Abbott and Little Gov. Dan Patrick. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's a tradition: Congress is in meltdown mode over budget issues during the holiday season. But this time, President-elect Trump is clashing with some Texas conservatives who don't agree with his plans for big spending in the coming year. Plus, the Texas House speaker race has cooled down to a simmer. And a big thanks to y'all for sticking with us throughout what's been a shitshow of a year.

President-elect Trump has talked at length about how much he loves Texans. If that's the case, even some Republicans are starting to wonder why he's not appointing almost any Texans to his incoming administration. Plus: Little Gov. Dan Patrick declares all out war on the sale of anything containing THC. Join the conversation with Scott Braddock [https://twitter.com/scottbraddock], editor of The Quorum Report, and Houston Chronicle political writer Jeremy Wallace [https://twitter.com/jeremyswallace]. Note: This episode does not cover the latest developments in the Texas House speaker race because the situation is changing minute to minute and I expect that to be the case through the weekend.
