Author: Darla Freedom-Pie Magsen

Darla Freedom-Pie Magsen is the most rural woman in Texas—born in a feed store, baptized in a cattle trough, and raised on brisket and suspicion. She lives 87 miles from the nearest Starbucks and calls her Wi-Fi signal “Communist Infiltration.” A mother of three, two goats, and a rooster named Mitch McConnell, Darla writes columns between canning sessions and open-carry quilting circles. Her political beliefs are carved into mesquite and smoked for 12 hours. When she’s not defending the Constitution or her pecan pie recipe, she’s lobbying for a border wall around Austin.
