Fighting Corruption

in Texas and Williamson County

"Corruption in our courts and government will not be stopped by those at the top, they benefit too much.  It can only be stopped from the bottom, by each voter becoming informed and holding city and county elected officials responsible."

                                                      Tom Mowdy

My objective is to research, investigate, and expose the corruption in our courts, county, and cities, making voters aware, and helping to create and maintain good government in Williamson County Texas.

We need a government and legal system we can trust.  Williamson County government and legal system are corrupt.  

Elected county officials are handing taxpayer money to their friends.  

Williamson County courts have become a farce of judges willing to ignore our laws, and human rights and dignity while they knowingly support a corrupt and predatory legal industry designed to maximize profit while destroying individuals and families.

I don’t know what all veterans feel when they see government corruption.  Not all veterans have the same experiences.  Most never see combat.  Actual front line combat is experienced by less than 10% of all veterans because most of war is logistics, communications, and command and control.  Only a small percentage of the military engages the enemy face to face.

I’m one of those who engaged the enemy face to face as an Assault Helicopter Flight Leader in Vietnam.  During my time in war, I expected to be shot at every day.  The 1^st Cavalry Division (Airmobile) infantry I delivered into battle had it worse.  It is difficult to hide a whirling noisy machine hanging less than 5 feet above the ground in a small landing zone surrounded by trees, vegetation, and people who want to kill you. From standing in the door, the infantry would jump out into battle from my helicopter, and I would go get more infantry.  Dodging enemy fire coming and going. On average, my unit would complete two combat assaults each day.

Yes, my feelings and expectations are connected to the most intense times of my life, fighting for my nation.  We were fighting for, a system of government we could trust and against a government that could not be trusted.  I can’t suppress my feelings, because it would be to ignore myself, and all those who died, were wounded, and served somehow, somewhere, and especially at the front lines with honor and visions of justice and a nation they could respect and trust.   My father taught me to have this feeling, he was a combat medic who landed on Normandy Beach, on D-day, and fought the NAZIs from North Africa to the Elbe and the end of WWII in Europe.

I expect, and demand, the honest government we all thought we would have when we took those oaths and fought those battles.
