@ZelenskyyUa We will see you when you are running away. You ruined your own country and caused death of millions from both sides just to be a puppet of West. World will never forget you like Adolf!

Our responses to Russia’s prolongation of the war and its attacks on our cities and communities are entirely justified. This time, Ukrainian long-range sanctions reached the Moscow region, and we are clearly telling the Russians: their state must end its war. Ukrainian drone and missile manufacturers continue their work. I am grateful to the Security Service of Ukraine and all the Defense Forces of Ukraine for their precision. The distance from Ukraine’s state border is over 500 km. The concentration of Russian air defense in the Moscow region is the highest. But we are overcoming it. Glory to Ukraine!

Opinion | Bo French is an embarrassment to the Republican Party, a coward and a bigot. Keep him away from the Railroad Commission, writes the editorial board. houstonchronicle.com/opinion/endors…

Fires are burning across multiple West Texas counties right now. Fourteen thousand acres near Canyon in Randall County. A fire that crossed the New Mexico border into Texas. Volunteer departments running on no sleep.
More than 90% of wildfires in Texas are caused by humans, which means they are preventable. During hot, dry, and windy conditions, avoid any outdoor activity that may cause a spark: debris burning, welding, working on equipment. And please respect the burn bans.
My prayers are with everyone affected. Pray for rain.

@scottbraddock @0liviajulianna The REAL controversy is that people in Austin call burritos “tacos” 🤨

@Grampsknos @KingForTexas How much money is in the Rainy Day Fund?

Not talked about enough is that Biden administration denied the Lamb County Tolk Plant the ability to ramp up to full electrical capacity during the Big Freeze without incurring massive financially catastrophic carbon credit fines.
Only afterwards did legislators find out that wind provides only 45% of rated capacity BUT ONLY WHEN THE WIND BLOWS at ideal speeds. Which it usually barely blows on the coldest dangerous cloudless winter nights.

The House Committee on State Affairs held another full day of hearings on Tuesday, and I want to keep West Texans in the loop on what we are working on in Austin.
We heard testimony on two important topics: public-private partnerships and microgrids and distributed energy resources. Both have implications for Texas communities, from how we structure and fund infrastructure projects to how we build a more reliable power grid for Texans.
We brought in voices from across the state, including ERCOT, local government leaders, energy experts, and community advocates. The goal is to understand what’s working, what is not, and where the legislature needs to act.
This committee is working hard, and there is more to come. I’ll continue to keep you updated.

Today I sent this letter to Attorney General Paxton regarding his office’s troubling handling of the Adam Hoffman child sexual abuse case in Waco. To me and to many Texans — and certainly to child sexual abuse and assault victims and their families — the plea deal General Paxton agreed to (serious felony crimes reduced to misdemeanor charges, only 30 days in county jail, no mandatory registration as a sex offender and no permanent loss of Hoffman’s law license) is incomprehensible. As the state’s top law enforcement officer, General Paxton owes all Texans an answer. #txlege

We are announcing today that The American Revolution will stream for free in its entirety on all PBS platforms from May 25th through July 12. Hope you have a chance to watch, ideally with friends and family, as you think about our 250th anniversary this July 4th. pbs.org/kenburns/the-a…

New: Texas lawmakers rejected dozens of flood safety bills over nearly 60 years, ProPublica and The Texas Tribune found. The most consequential measures could have saved lives by prohibiting youth camps and new construction in flood-prone areas. propub.li/4ndqQEa

TMZ trying to make up for the story they passed on is a sight to behold. What’s the endgame? Vrabel resigning? Hey teacher, leave them kids alone.
