@sflone @texasrunnerDFW @SaraGonzalesTX I live in Fairfax Co., Virginia. There are just as many languages, if not more, spoken here. The county schools are among the best in the nation.

@KGWillison @texasrunnerDFW @SaraGonzalesTX All fun and games until the school district you pay for has to waste millage money on 30+ languages being spoken in local public schools.

At a park in Plano, TX with my 5-year-old. We are surrounded by foreigners, speaking multiple foreign languages, making it more difficult for my son to make friends. This is my hometown. It’s unrecognizable. I want my country back.

@texasrunnerDFW @GavinNewsom @NRA They might if we could control guns as they enter the state. How about we pat down and search every car crossing state lines to check for guns?

@GavinNewsom @NRA So, the states with the strictest gun laws would have the fewest mass shootings then? Especially the one you are in charge of?

Eight children murdered — ages 1 to 14. This is a moral failure. It’s preventable. How many more kids have to be killed before the @NRA stops paying off politicians?

@texasrunnerDFW @SaraGonzalesTX Racism in northern Texas is unbelievable. Kids will make friends. Might even learn a new language and culture.

@SaraGonzalesTX It is fair to be frustrated by language barriers. There are families who do wish for their kids to grow up amongst other cultures—in the past they relocated as expats People who grew up here and live here are having the multicultural choice be made for them

@texasrunnerDFW @WSJ Better is a term that a lot of people would argue. Is life better because women have more opportunities than ever before? I’d say yes. Is life better by having more abundant energy sources? I’d say yes. Is life better because we have made tremendous advances in medicine? Yes yes!

I don’t think “who had it better financially” is the most meaningful metric. Biden campaigned on “the great economy” and media endlessly used data and charts trying to convince people the economy was good He lost because people vote based on quality of life metrics, and almost every metric is worse today than 1985 Rather than, “who had it harder financially?” Ask, “who got to raise their kids in a better, safer, more cohesive, and healthier America?”

Millennials like to say their generation got the short end of the economic stick. Baby boomers like to push back, saying they didn’t have it so easy themselves. Well, who’s right? on.wsj.com/41zovcG

@texasrunnerDFW @shawngorham Gee. Wonder how it works with health insurance? What? The same way? Maybe we ought to mandate that everyone have health insurance.

@shawngorham It’s like a socialist system now. The insured end up having pay more to cover all the uninsured The entire system is a mess

Remember our car accident 10+ weeks ago? Guess what? They didnt have insurance, shocker No Habla English, one of the passengers (prob driver) disappeared from the scene. They gave the police a fake insurance card No accountability, no consequence We were just sitting at a red light. Wife had a concussion and back pain for 6 weeks Our car, which MY insurance is paying $18,000 to fix (won't total it) has now lost half its value due to an accident See this homie with the mask? He disappeared before the police showed up left a lady behind. So we take a loss, my wife is hurt, my insurance will pay up but of course raise my rates to cover it and the other party just gets to walk away with a totaled cheap ass car. Pisses me off - if I tried to pull that shit off I would prob be arrested.

@gerardtbaker @AlanZibel Same administration that said it was willing to bankroll Hungary if Orban were reelected

Obscene thing to say. If you must, say, “I’m sorry but Ukraine is not our problem; we have bigger issues to deal with; Europe should step up”. But to say you’re proud of starving a country of help in the face of lethal aggression? Just don’t understand this man’s morality.

@texasrunnerDFW @revenant_MMXX Do you get the choice when you rent? I mean, where do you get a choice to choose your neighbors?

@KGWillison @revenant_MMXX You referenced race, I did not It’s behavior and lifestyle. Your street can have no young kids, or many. People with who throw loud parties. People who smoke pot and it stinks. Barking dogs. Friendly people, hermits, rude people. Of any race. Affluent people aren’t all nice

At this point you would be a fool to even want to own property in this country. Not only is it completely out of reach for everyone younger than Gen X, it's not even really desirable as an investment anymore.

@texasrunnerDFW @revenant_MMXX What do you mean that you can’t control who moves in on your street? Was it better when people could not sell to Blacks? Is that what you want to go back to? I’d argue that whoever moves next door is equally as affluent as you are.

People still desire to own homes. The bigger risks now are not financial. They’re political/lifestyle. You go all in financially to own one home. Can’t control who moves in on your street. Can’t control the laws your town or state passes. I watched families sell “dream homes” during the pandemic and move to new states because of pandemic policy Areas change fast depending on what your local government allows and doesn’t, and if you don’t like what yours becomes, you don’t want to be tied down in it

@BruinReport @adamgorney This is just so much fun to read. It has been soooo looonnngggg since I have been legitimately excited about Bruin football.

UCLA is recruiting well and everybody is talking about the Bruins, writes @adamgorney. Must-read here: on3.com/rivals/news/uc…

@Dan34017970 @KeenanPeachy Trust me, 10 years ago there weren’t $250k homes worth living in in LA. Not even 30 years ago.

@KeenanPeachy Heard on the radio they want to make it affordable for teachers who teach in LA to live here. Maybe they should be looking at the housing bubble that was created, a $250K home ten years ago magically became a $1.5M property.

LAUSD: spends $48,0000 per student, per year. Many LA elementary schools are 90%+ immigrant.

@info_maiden What is the fallout? This is terrific. Do white kids not get to go to the school? Why are there so many racists in suburban Dallas?

Just a typical classroom at Independence High School in Frisco, TX…where the only visible American is the teacher. 18.2% White 64.6% “Asian” The fallout of “legal” immigration.

@emzanotti Why do you care if no one watches? In case you didn’t see them, they were great 😊

Three ancient, out-of-touch Cardinal relics of the “Spirit of Vatican II” going on a basic cable news program no one watches to talk about how they’ve captured the pulse of the church’s future is almost perfect.

@KeenanPeachy You are quite wrong about this. The Francis-Leo effect is real in drawing people to the Catholic Church.

Most people become Catholic *in spite of* who happens to be the Pope, not because of him. Do you refuse to become a citizen of the United States when you don't like who the president is? Do you give up your citizenship if you don't like who's president? The Pope is a leftie boomer who considers the poor of the "global south" holy and saintly. He is going to be used to bludgeon the right by the Obama-Soros cabal in the next few years. They are grooming him to be their main spokesman on why the USA needs no borders and should keep sending all our money to the third world and inviting millions of foreigners in. Just take what you like from him (the basic dogma) and ignore the rest (the Obama-tier political slop). I am begging the Pope to render unto Caesar that which is Caesars.

@KeenanPeachy Abortion is not a significant issue relative to the birth rate. Women in developed countries around the world are reducing the birth rate because they can. Nothing wrong with it.

It's actually possible that liberals might start to pull back from their aggressive abortion and birth control marketing when they finally realize it worked a little too well

@TyDaubert @PhilliesNation Same thing last year. You know the definition of insanity?

Taijuan Walker has given up nine runs on 10 hits in the first inning of his three starts. He’s pitched pretty well otherwise. What can the Phillies do to fix the first-inning issue? “We’re trying to figure it out. Just haven’t gotten it yet." philliesnation.com/2026/04/philad…

@magataotao He’s great. Thrilled he was chosen after the passing of what had been the finest papacy of my life, Francis.

I am Catholic. This👇is not my Pope.

@Mikofishart @RichRaho I hope so.

@RichRaho Another pope francis.

To put it plainly, the Pope is fed up, and today he has denounced US foreign policy using the harshest terms yet. There is no need to mention names, for everyone knows who he is talking about; it would be a breach of Vatican protocol to do so. Leo is a Pope in a time of war. Like Francis, he knows the dangers of a “piecemeal” WWIII.

@KTsesti @michaeljknowles He was diagnosed with 5 inoperable cancers after his first scan. Don’t go saying the treatment killed him.

@michaeljknowles Except it’s the treatment that killed him. We deserve better from medicine.

Has a public figure died with anywhere near this degree of grace and magnanimity in our lifetimes? The only other example that comes to mind is John Paul II. Simply inspirational.

@60Minutes @RichRaho I like all 3 of those Cardinals. Look forward to watching

For the first time, three of America's most influential cardinals and archbishops agreed to a joint interview, sharing their candid take on war in Iran, immigration, and the future of the Catholic Church. Sunday on 60 Minutes. 60Minutes.com

@texasrunnerDFW @DallasXCEO It is racism. If demand is strong to live in Frisco, it is keeping home prices up and helping those who own homes. Imagine what would happen to home values if they all left. Communities change. No reason to insult people who live there.

@DallasXCEO It’s a nationalism issue being conflated with a racism issue I’ve heard American citizens from all ethnic backgrounds express concerns There are hardworking now-citizens who came here on H-1B visas and assimilated who are unhappy that the program is being abused too

I've never seen an issue more discussed and palpable in North Texas then the H-1B program. I had a meeting in a Frisco coffee shop this morning when I overheard some local residents describing the large H-1B community in pejorative terms - labeling them as "Prawns" and referring to Collin County as "Curry County'. Evidently the "Prawns" reference comes from the Best Picture nominated film "District 9" where a large number of aliens were stranded in Johannesburg, South Africa after their spaceship broke down and became disruptive and an annoyance to the native residents' way of life. I'm not sure most politicians - many of whom enthusiastically support the H-1B program - truly understand the social mood on this issue. It was already very negative before all the fraud revelations started coming to light. Many federal, state and local politicians have taken huge contributions from the business community, immigration lobbies/agents and activist organizations that support H-1B and seem to want to ignore the anger and frustration that's now being openly expressed publicly daily. Which begs an important questions: Is the reaction to these demographic changes resulting from H-1B immigration in cities like Frisco, Southlake and McKinney racist and xenophobic as many on the left suggest❓ Or, do long-time residents of these communities have rational, justified concerns as their towns experience rapid, fundamental changes to their neighborhoods, stores, schools, jobs, culture and an evolving general environment that feels foreign to them❓ @DallasExpress
