Lordy, there's a tape Did Texas House Speaker Dennis Bonnen attempt to bribe a conservative activist? Michael Quinn Sullivan recently accused Bonnen of offering him a quid-pro-quo deal. According to Sullivan, Bonnen would give Sullivan’s well-funded organization, Empower Texans, media credentials to cover the legislative session from the House floor, if Sullivan used his platform and connections to help Bonnen take out some rival Republicans in the primaries. Bonnen has denied the allegations, though his denials have felt a little thin.
