MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas – Haley and Kendall Higgins have been saddling up since they were kids.
“It’s a lot of fun and something we want to do the rest of our lives,” said Kendall.

They found passion on horseback and fell in love with 4-H as teens. They continued to ride and now both ride for Tarleton’s equestrian team while working on equine-focused degrees there and work in mounted patrol.
The two say 4-H put them on the right path to be successful in a demanding industry – but had its hurdles along the way.
“We had a lot of opportunities there, but there were also many that weren’t accessible if you didn’t have the money for it,” said Haley.
FOX 26 Houston is now on the FOX LOCAL app available through Apple TV, Amazon FireTV, Roku, Google Android TV, Samsung TV, and Vizio!
So, they decided while home for the summer from school to start offering up what they’ve learned, free of charge. They host clinics on breeding, foal handling, mounted patrol and more at Higgins Ranch in Montgomery County. The clinics are open to all.
“4-H gives a lot of opportunity, but we take it to the next level if you will,” said Haley. “We just want to give the kids opportunities that we never had as kids, [opportunities] that we would have died for,” Kendall added.
“A lot of parents are shocked that we’re doing this stuff for free, but they don’t understand – we love to do it!” said Kendall.
13-year-old Shelby Laqua met the duo through 4-H and now regularly attends their clinics and events.
“I’ve learned more coming here than I have my entire life,” she said. “Even if you don’t have a horse, it’s the best thing you can do, you can learn so much.”
The Higgins host clinics throughout the summer, but also plan on coming home monthly until next year to work with Montgomery County 4-H’s “Colt Program.”
They also offer boarding and lessons at the ranch.

This Week in Texas, we talk about the fatal shooting in Houston involving Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Our political insiders, Jacey Jetton and Shea Jordan Smith, offer their perspectives on that and the proposal from Democratic Gubernatorial Candidate Gina Hinojosa to give every Texas household $1500 from the state’s rainy day fund.
Also, a report on big drainage money that the City of Galveston might have let slip through the cracks.

A man in Texas, suspicious about his newly acquired truck, decided to take a look inside. To his surprise, he found a GPS tracker that was monitoring his every move. As expected, people online reacted as they normally do: a collective meltdown.
The man in question is none other than David Allen, also known as ToTouchAnEmu. He is a very popular content creator who has over 9.8 million followers on TikTok alone.
And while he shares a wide variety of content, one of his latest videos addresses this apparent breach of privacy. He detailed how he was surprised and overwhelmed as he went through the terms and conditions after purchasing his new truck.

His dealer had signed him up and paid for a one-year subscription to CarRx, a platform and mobile app that monitors vehicles’ data. David, however, was not too thrilled to find out exactly what that meant.
Tracking Everything
For starters, he showed that, under the terms and conditions, CarRx would sell all collected information to third parties. David was not too worried about that.
Instead, he showed all the data that the platform collects from vehicles. Understandably, he was shocked.
Monitored information includes the car’s VIN, mileage, oil and battery status, fuel, and charging history. The platform can also track a vehicle’s location, speed, crash detection alerts, braking events, and even camera image and sensor data.
Finding the Tracker
David, still astounded by the revelation, knew that something was fishy. He asked, “I start thinking, how do they know all that information about my car if they don’t have some sort of GPS tracker on it?”

And to no one’s surprise, and thanks to a Google search, it turns out that there was, in fact, a tracker installed in David’s truck. And not willing to let it slide, the man got to work immediately.
The Texas man searched for the tracker near the OBD port. He noticed a Y-cable right below it and found the tracker connected to it. The tracker had an IMEI, meaning that it had a SIM card in it, so tracking is pretty much a guarantee.
Viewers React Accordingly
Of course, David’s video caused a multitude of reactions. Some took issue with how he labeled his SUV a truck, but most viewers were worried about their privacy.
“We need data privacy laws stat!” one said. Another one commented, “This isn’t new, unfortunately. I used to work for GM; they track everything. In real time.”

The latter comment seemed to echo the majority of reactions. Other users, former car dealership employees themselves, said the exact same thing.
