The week in politics (Sept. 10, 2025)

On Wednesday's show: Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo walked out of a budget meeting, while Texas A&M plans to audit its classes after a professor is fired amid conservative backlash over teaching gender identity in class. We get context and clarity on those and other developments in politics in our weekly roundup.

Also this hour: We learn about efforts by law enforcement to keep reckless drivers in check.

And this month, Houston blues acts battle for a shot to represent the city at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis. We learn more and bring you a special live, in-studio performance by the first woman to win the competition, Houston native Diunna Greenleaf, and her band, Blue Mercy.
