@tedcruz The list could've been (suggested by Grok): 2016: The Martian 2017: Hacksaw Ridge 2018: Dunkirk 2019: Bohemian Rhapsody 2020: Ford vs. Ferrari 2021: The Father 2022: Dune 2023: Top Gun: Maverick 2024: Oppenheimer 2025: Conclave 2026: F1

Compare the last 10 best picture winners to the list below. Oscars used to go to great movies, watched by millions. Movie-makers used to LIKE their customers. This past decade, other than Oppenheimer, nobody saw any of these movies, made to virtue signal to left-wing elites.

@_AustinAdvocate USCRI is an NGO, not the federal government

This is how local government grows and bloats into Austin's budget crisis. Federal government is funding $2m grant to Austin Public Health for immigrant and refugee medical screening services. APH will fund SEVEN new positions in the department based on council direction today. When funding disappears from federal government, the local government asks taxpayers to cover the deficit. Local government continues to bloat both in dollars and staff. And the cycle never ends.

Back in 2017, Austin Municipal Courts cost $18.3 M and brought in $14.4 M. By 2022, costs doubled to $37.3 M but they only brought in $5.6 M. The 2025 budget wants more than $40 M (more than any other Texas city), but since they don't enforce anything, revenues continue to plummet. See austintexas.gov/municipal-cour…

At yesterday's #atxcouncil budget work session, @Marc4AustinD10 wants APD to increase citations and Code Enforcement to issue more fines to increase revenue. They're desperate to get our money. #txlege
