@BaileyJ33052116 @SarahisCensored They use bond money to pay for these.

@SarahisCensored Yea let’s not put that money into learning. I love football, love it! But this is too much. I bet less that 50% of kids in that school know what the year 1776 means to America.

Melissa high school in Texas has just over 1300 students. This is their new 10,000 seat, $35 million football stadium.

@SarahisCensored Do you know what else this stadium is used for?

@RepMTG Agreed on all counts. Unfortunately you perpetuated this behavior with your behaviors and support of this administration.

Yesterday after 5 ridiculous months of fighting the WH and the Speaker to get Congress to finally vote to release the Epstein files, a deal was made to stop the censure of Stacey Plaskett, a Democrat delegate from the territory of US Virgin Islands, which would have also kicked her off the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence that oversees US intelligence activities, for texting with Epstein during an Oversight Committee hearing in 2019. Plaskett texted with Epstein as he advised her questions during the Michael Cohen hearing, knowing his convictions and record of rape and trafficking girls and women. This was the reason for last night’s censure resolution vote. What was the deal that was made? 3 Republicans crossed the aisle and voted with Democrats to stop the Plaskett censure resolution in a swap so that Democrats would not bring up the Cory Mills (R) censure resolution for alleged physical assaults and threatening to release pornography on an ex-girlfriend and ethics violations and questionable military record. You, the American people, should be outraged by this against both parties. And you should be asking many questions. For example, why does Plaskett who is a non voting delegate from a U.S. territory serve on the House Intelligence Committee, Ways and Means, and Budget Committee? Those are very powerful influential committees and she can’t even vote on the House floor. And Cory Mills serves on the House Armed Services Committee, Foreign Affairs, and subcommittees on Intelligence. So why did both sides work together to stop both Plaskett and Mills censure resolutions last night in order to protect both Plaskett and Mills? Members of Congress like me never ever receive such protection and never will. Instead of working to pass legislation that supports policies you voted for, passing our appropriation bills, and solving real crisis issues like healthcare, Congress is trapped in the quicksand of the Swamp with no intention of getting out.

@brianeharrison @GregAbbott_TX And your plan to fund schools without property taxes is what?

FACT: every property tax elimination proposal could be passed IMMEDIATELY if Gov @GregAbbott_TX would call a special session… as I’ve been asking him to do. Why do we need to wait for another two years??

@JDVance I’m pretty positive god was not listening to those kids prayers because I promise none of them were praying to be shot at while praying. You know what does work, reliably, as evidenced by other countries statistics? Gun control.

We pray because our hearts are broken. We pray because we know God listens. We pray because we know that God works in mysterious ways, and can inspire us to further action. Why do you feel the need to attack other people for praying when kids were just killed praying?

@KenPaxtonTX Breaking: I am instructing schools to continue to violate the constitution by upholding an unconstitutional law and therefore causing significant legal fees for the state as they fight this already set precedent in court.

🚨BREAKING: I'm instructing Texas schools to display the Ten Commandments in accordance with Texas law. I will not back down from defending the virtues and values that built this country.

@RepMTG Oh I’m so glad to see you are in favor of universal healthcare! It is a shame that we are the only major developed nation without it. But how are we paying for public schools in states where schools are funded by property taxes? I assume your solution is to just get rid of them

Hi. We need to completely abolish property taxes. It forces us to pay “rent” to the government on property that we own, but if we don’t pay property taxes, the property that we own gets taken away from us. That should never happen in a free country. Secondly, health insurance is a giant scam that has become completely unaffordable. And it doesn’t make any sense and I don’t know anyone, and I mean anyone, that supports the current healthcare system in the United States. These are American Only issues and such significant problems that we should be addressing them the same way we would if our house was on fire. America Only!!!!!

@GregAbbott_TX Texas house democrats are working to prevent gerrymandering mid decade redistricting because you want to follow orders from a felon.

Texas House Democrats abandoned their duty and are holding flood relief and property tax cuts hostage. I ordered Texas DPS to arrest and return every derelict House Democrat to the Texas Capitol. This order will remain in effect until all missing Democrats are accounted for.

@DonHuffines And how will you fund schools?

Texans shouldn’t be renters in their own homes. As Comptroller, I’ll work with the Legislature to eliminate the school property tax. It’s time for MAXIMUM property tax relief.

@SenMullin Clearly you have not actually read the bill.

Largest middle-class tax cut in history. Boosts take-home pay. Permanent border security. Mass deportations. No tax on tips & overtime. Lower energy costs. Made-in-USA manufacturing. Increases Child Tax Credit. $507+ billion deficit reduction. PROMISES MADE, PROMISES KEPT. ✅

@SenMullin lol. No it won’t.

🚨 FACT: When we pass President Trump’s historic tax relief, take-home pay for a typical American family will INCREASE by OVER $10,000 per year.

@DonHuffines Good try but nope. We are being taxed out because inflation has risen so much and Texas taxes home based on appraised value by the county, not on the price we paid for the home. When home prices increase by 100%+ in less than 5 year it makes the taxes unaffordable.

Texans are being taxed out of their homes to fund hospitals and schools overwhelmed by illegal aliens. We must END ALL MAGNETS & HANDOUTS for illegals. As Comptroller, I’ll expose the billions wasted on illegal aliens & work with lawmakers to cut it off and protect taxpayers.

@GregAbbott_TX Incentive funds 🤣. Code for we don’t actually want to pay you we just want you to jump through hoops trying to make more money instead of teaching

Texas teachers receive over $481 million in incentive funds for 2024-25 school year Texas is putting thousands of hardworking teachers on a path to earn a six-figure salary. foxsanantonio.com/newsletter-dai…

@RepMTG Wait so you didn’t read the bill you were voting on?! What kind of idiot votes for something they don’t understand?!

Full transparency, I did not know about this section on pages 278-279 of the OBBB that strips states of the right to make laws or regulate AI for 10 years. I am adamantly OPPOSED to this and it is a violation of state rights and I would have voted NO if I had known this was in there. We have no idea what AI will be capable of in the next 10 years and giving it free rein and tying states hands is potentially dangerous. This needs to be stripped out in the Senate. When the OBBB comes back to the House for approval after Senate changes, I will not vote for it with this in it. We should be reducing federal power and preserving state power. Not the other way around. Especially with rapidly developing AI that even the experts warn they have no idea what it may be capable of.

@NateSchatzline Oh I see you are for an increase in killing children in school shootings. Good plan.

🚨BREAKING: We just BANNED 🚩red flag 🚩laws in the Texas House! #txlege

@NotTheJeffOlsen @EricLDaugh And yet the doctors have said yes that is possible with the aggressive nature of the cancer he has.

@EricLDaugh So in his February 2024 White House physical -- in addition to not doing a neurological test -- did they not check his prostate? I mean, from nondetectable to Stage 4 in 15 months seems somewhat improbable to me, but I'm certainly not a physician.

Can any doctors educate me? Does stage 4 prostate cancer metastasize over 4 months?

@GregAbbott_TX I see you don’t believe in the constitution.

This is insanity. The courts refused to stop Biden from unlawfully importing illegal immigrants. Now the Supreme Court is stopping Trump from removing immigrants who are here illegally. The majority of Americans will be outraged at this injustice.

@CreightonForTX That citizens of Texas don’t want. Otherwise it could’ve been on the ballot.

Today marks a defining moment in Texas history. With the passage of Senate Bill 2 — the Texas Education Freedom Act — we deliver on a promise more than three decades in the making. #txlege

@tornadochaserwx @NWSFortWorth Virginia and independence pkwy

@BrookeRod519 @NWSFortWorth Awesome hail picture! I'm a meteorologist that works with radar and correlated hail signatures. Would you be able to provide a close by intersection of where the picture was taken? Thanks for any feedback!

@NWSFortWorth hail in northwest Mckinney just now

@JohnCornyn I see you still support the man who mocked a disabled man.

Crockett’s comments are disgraceful. Can you imagine if a Republican said something like this? It would be on front page of NYT and all over CNN.
