Sylvester Turner, the mayor of Houston, Texas, is a liberal Democrat who wants to defund the Houston Police Department, just like other Democrat mayors.[1] He is strongly and unequivocally pro-abortion.[2] Sylvester Turner's wife, Cheryl Turner, is currently in prison, for stealing like $143,000.[3] His home has 17 floors, despite the high poverty in Houston.[4]
Pro-China behavior
When President Trump closed the Chinese consulate in Houston, Sylvester Turner did nothing, but he just defended China in a gingerly way, calling it "Houston's third-largest trading partner", and "China helped protect Houstonians during the COVID-19 pandemic". He also hoped that the consulate would reopen, to resume trade with the Chinese Communist Party.[5]
Communist ties
The pro-Antifa Houston Communist Party has congratulated Sylvester Turner for denouncing "Trump's fascist and racist campaign".[6]
Here is what the Communists said: "Thank you, Sylvester Turner, Mayor of Houston, for denouncing the hostile anti-immigrant rhetoric of Donald J. Trump and his fascist campaign",
