Priest removed as exorcist after remarks about UFOs and demons

A prominent Catholic priest was removed from his role as an exorcist in his archdiocese after comments he made linking UFOs to the presence of demon activity in a recent Facebook post.
The Woodlands residents who rely on the oil and gas industry for their livelihoods may be watching Bo French's bid for Texas railroad commissioner with interest, given the commission's role in regulating the industry. As a master-planned community with a strong economy, The Woodlands is home to many energy companies and professionals who work in the sector. The Texas railroad commissioner has significant influence over the industry, overseeing issues such as pipeline safety and environmental regulation. With The Woodlands' location near Houston, a major hub for the energy industry, the actions of the railroad commissioner can have a direct impact on local businesses and residents. The fact that Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick is backing French despite his previous controversies raises questions about the kind of regulation and oversight the commission would provide under his leadership.
