"USHCN stations are the federally recognized climate recording stations. The other cherries YOU are picking aren't. "

Wrong, as usual

Cooperative Observer Program
Introduction:

Of the more than 11,000 COOP stations, nearly 5,000 are climate stations (1,200 are Historical Climate Network sites), while more than 6,000 cooperative stations support hydrology requirements. Climate stations report 24-hour maximum and minimum temperatures, liquid equivalent of precipitation, snowfall, snow depth and other special phenomena such as days with thunder, hail, etc. Hydrologic stations, on the other hand, report liquid equivalent of precipitation and may also observe river water level heights, 24-hour maximum and minimum temperature, snowfall, snow depth, evaporation and other parameters. Observations are sent as monthly reports to the NCDC in Asheville, N.C. or to the local NWS forecast office where the data is digitized, checked and archived (i.e., about 5,800 COOP stations have their monthly summaries published by NOAA's NCDC. Several thousand observers also report 24-hour summaries of observations to the NWS on a daily basis). Data is transmitted through telephone, computer or mail

"there is no trend to more extreme rainfall in TX"
Wrong, but multiple repetitions makes it a lie.
