A public corruption unit within the Texas Rangers will investigate the simmering controversy surrounding House Speaker Dennis Bonnen.

On Monday, the Texas House’s General Investigating committee held a closed-door session for about an hour discussing allegations made after a meeting earlier this summer in which Bonnen, a Brazoria County Republican, is accused of offering to give media credentials to a conservative political operative and suggesting his group, Empower Texans, target 10 current House Republicans running for re-election.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
