@AmOptimistShow @JTLonsdale @kilmeade @kilmeade Issue with AI Data Centers in Texas is not the technology but fact that Texas @GregAbbott_TX & #Txlege have attracted 10x more than other states with billions in TEF incentives, state & local sales tax exemptions and cheap easy access to ERCOT deregulated electricity

@Trustwell_LLC Why are you showing photos of fresh heads of iceberg lettuce when I every report I've read of cyclospora affected produce involves bagged chopped lettuce and salad mixes?

@data_atx @ToddJeffries Austin homeless czar should visit San Francisco to learn best practices for reducing waste from illegal camping based on this SF Gate news story that one illegal camper living in the National Forest only accumulated 1000 pounds of solid waste over 8 years.

@clayandbuck @ClayTravis @BuckSexton @KenPaxtonTX @JohnCornyn I despise Establishment Republican mediocrity, but Texas AG Ken Paxton has been the subject of multiple criminal indictments, ethics complaints. Cornyn is a RINO but better than Talirico pulling a John Ossoff!

@Ali_Linan @GovAbbott Certainly, parents have the expectation that children will be safe at school, but sadly many Texas ISDs have spent millions on new secure entrances and cameras after Sandy Hook and other mass shootings and yet the secure doors are often propped open or left unlocked.

Your 1 thing for today. Don’t get caught up in being “busy”. Busy is overused and over rated. By definition it means “having a lot to do” - not getting alot done 🤷🏾‍♂️ JS. What’s your 1 thing today? #1thing @10MTNDIV

@piratefalcon325 @adamjschmidt @TankMcTankFace I remember my wife telling me how lingerie sales spiked at Dillard's when Hood deployed for Desert Shield and how cologne and clothing sales spiked like Christmas when soldiers returned.
