She never seems to have a mental breakdown, need to leave for therapy, or request a break in the middle of a meeting when she is traveling.

Maybe Houston air isnt good for her and she just needs to never come back.

I don't joke about mental health, but is "No one can disagree with me ever about anything" really a recognized disorder? Or is she a spoiled child who stamps her feet when she doesn't get treated like she's better than everyone else?

Are there ever reports outlining quantifiable economic impacts to the city/county from these boondoggles or are they always just just a bunch of bull**** hyperbole.

All bull****, all the time. Just an opportunity for Lina to live the jet set life on our dime.

She probably petitioned for the court to pay for her therapist to travel with her, along with her security detail.

Her mental struggles are from the anxiety of being in a position of power and responsibility that she cannot handle due to lack of intelligence, experience, and executive function. Sprinkle in her issues with what seems like substance abuse and narcissism and it results in public meltdowns. I don't consider her issues to be as severe or serious as someone with bipolar or schizophrenia. Her issues are largely self induced from drugs, poor parenting (I guess not her fault) and no desire to grow as a professional. She would rather jet set and blow cash than actually get better.

Request for 2 lawsuits against the WPA over greenhouse gasses and fleet mpg rules.

The county has zero responsibility in these 2 areas.

A lot of discussion regarding the expansion of Ben Taub hospital.

Nothing on the discussion agenda for dealing with Lina being a clown.

Didn't that get approved in a bond vote?

The controversy is the land they want to build it upon. It was gifted to the county with the stipulation it can only be used as a park. If they want to build on it the descendants of the owners can demand it is returned.

Its also in the 100yr floodplain. So it just gets more complicated. This gets even more complicated as FEMA is updating the flood zone areas.

Depends. They can go 12 hours.

All based on number of speakers and how long the agenda is. Hearings with multiple people speaking also drsg things out.

Almost half of the land is a freaking golf course. I enjoy the golf course but I wouldnt say that is a "park"

https://www.click2houston.com/news/local/2026/03/19/resolution-calling-for-harris-county-judge-lina-hidalgos-resignation-delayed-after-rule-change/

The tense moment many expected at the Harris County Commissioners Court on Thursday never happened.

Commissioner Tom Ramsey planned to introduce a resolution calling for the resignation of Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo following her recent controversy at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. Instead, a newly implemented rule blocked the move before it could begin.

Wait. They changed the rule a week ago? Who agreed to the rule change? It sounds like Ramsey didn't know about it.

Did Rodney do something to protect Lina here?
Gaeilge
How long do you want to ignore this user?
They're playing massive defense for the ultimate (D) candidate. They're worried about optics and spillover into the election, even though both (D) candidates have distanced themselves from Lina, I believe.

Parker didn't just distance herself from Dora. She actively joined the race to run against Dora.

This sounds like Rodney protecting Dora. I know the other two hate her but they also don't want her gone either.

Its all about budget and tax rate. They have to have her.

"Just for the timing of it all, I would like to read it here, and we certainly can talk about it again when she returns. Her having missed the last three meetings, I'm not sure when she's coming," Ramsey said.

Wait, she missed the last 3 commissioners court meetings? But was in town for at least 5 rodeo concerts during that time?
