From Chris Putnam on X: My second incident in the last week tonight. I was walking down Jefferson on the south end of Bishop Arts after a lovely Mexican dinner. A crack head asked me for a cigarette. When I politely explained I don't smoke and calmly walked by he comes up behind me and grabbed my shoulder aggressively and squeezed until I shook him off. For a split second I considered wheeling around and knocking him out. There was a fire truck working an active scene on the other side of the block so I just kept walking. But I decided tonight that will be the last time. Last week it was the cracked out woman who chased me after I respectfully declined to give her money (didn't even have any) outside a 7-11. She dropped her drawers in my headlights as she was blocking my truck as I was trying to leave. We DON'T have to live like this. Don't know about you all but I'm done pretending this nonsense is okay and we're just supposed to tolerate it. The very next time one of these zombies touches or threatens me I will be the headline story myself on @DallasExpress after I cap them.

Editor’s Note: After publication of this story, Chris Putnam, CEO of The Dallas Express, posted an apparent response on X. In it, Putnam defended the use of fake bylines, citing as justification a far-right news blog that publishes articles under the name of Brad Pitt’s character in the movie Fight Club.
A radical-left political hack who gets paid to write hit pieces for fringe-left, fake news outlets (and his own bizarre website) was big mad about our exclusive on Texas State Rep Gene Wu's son being reported to state law enforcement authorities for being a "school safety" risk after he pulled a knife on a teacher in front of students and a history of other troubling behaviors. a.) The story is true and the alert by local authroties to state law enforcement agencies was quoted accurately. b.) He did nothing to disprove the story's truthfulness or accuracy, and couldn't even get Wu on the record. c.) On-background sources are perfectly ethical if credible, and particularly if can be corroborated by a second source. There was once this thing called Watergate and a source named Deep Throat you might remember.

Trump in 2013: Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly-not skilled!
Donald Trump in 2012: "Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate."

AP News report screenshot: "The majority of the facts being publicly reported are those by the information provided by the Cubans. We will verify that independently as we gather more information, and we'll be prepared to respond accordingly," Rubio said. "We're going to have our own information on this. We're going to figure out exactly what happened." He said it was not a U.S. government operation and that he wasn't "going to speculate about whose boat it was, what they were doing, why they were there, what actually happened." One of the men identified by the Cuban government, Conrado Galindo Sariol, was interviewed in June 2025 by Martí Noticias, a U.S.-based news site that has long called for a change of government in Cuba."

"Any activity, registrations, or associations attributed to that account after that point were not made by me and were not authorized," Purvis said. "I have never used, registered for, or had any knowledge of the website you reference, and I was not aware of its existence prior to your inquiry. I have no involvement with White Date. For the avoidance of doubt, any publication that attributes to me accounts, activity, or affiliations with which I was not involved would be factually incorrect." Purvis' Gmail account is associated with a Google Maps account, which features an image of Purvis as the profile picture and includes reviews in the Houston area as recently as December, including one from October 2024 with a photo of a receipt that has his first name visible on it. When provided this information, and asked if he denies leaving the 2024 Google Maps review and whether he believes he has been impersonated online, Purvis wrote: "Please stop contacting me."
