[Comptroller Don Huffines @DonHuffines]

The Comptroller’s Office has over 600 auditors focused on auditing businesses and squeezing money out of them.

Well, I’m going to flip the script.

I’m going to turn half of my auditors loose to audit government.

Honored to be sworn in as Texas Comptroller.

I know that every tax dollar belongs to the people.

My focus: root out waste, shine a light on local government spending, and help deliver real property tax relief.

Thank you, Governor @GregAbbott_TX, for your confidence.

Texas Comptroller @DonHuffines is sworn in, refuses salary, calls for property tax relief, and changes agency logo immediately #txlege

@dremnik Granola is nice to have on iOS so you can record in person meetings and get AI notes and to-dos from them.

Does Quill have a mobile options?

[Michael K Fermier @Michael_Fermier]

@Swiftor I drew the same conclusion. Very annoying and lame.

I was looking forward to asking Siri AI what products I ordered such and such week and now none of that.

Please remember that Edwin J. Kyle, the namesake of Kyle Field, was born 150 yeas ago today, on July 22, 1876. After graduating from the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas in 1902, he served as the dean of its School of Agriculture from 1911-1944. He is credited with advocating the teaching of agriculture in public schools and established the Texas College of Forestry. In 1904, Edwin wanted to secure and develop an athletic field to promote the school's athletics. Texas A&M was unwilling to provide funds, so Kyle fenced off a section of the southwest corner of campus that had been assigned to him for agricultural use. Using $650 of his own money, he purchased a covered grandstand from the Bryan fairgrounds and built wooden bleachers to raise the seating capacity to 500 people. And that is what evolved, over time, into Kyle Field. Edwin Kyle died in 1963.

Shown here: Reveille walks across Kyle Field as the Texas A&M band marches in the background at halftime of the 1956 game between Texas A&M and Villanova. The Aggies won.

Thermal protection tiles used on reusable spacecraft are so low density, and low conduction that it's possible to carefully handle a tile moments after it comes out of the furnace - as demonstrated by @dominickmatthew while visiting @NASAAmes Thermal Protection Materials lab

[Ron DeSantis @RonDeSantis]

Do legacy media outlets typically use headlines involving the make of a car in a crash or is that only for Tesla?

It would be one thing if the self-driving malfunctioned but the crash was purely human-induced.

Seems like these outlets want to associate Tesla with crashes as part of a narrative and overall political agenda.

If we just help China carry out the largest theft of election data in US history, have the CIA suppress the evidence, fund the creation of a manmade virus, conceal its origins, allow the CCP to pay journalists to write negative stories about the duly elected POTUS, allow the Chinese Communist Party to create tens of thousands of mail-in ballots, abuse the FISA court, weaponize the justice system, rig primaries, attempt to remove Trump from state ballots, raid the private residence of a former president with deadly force, shutoff surveillance cameras, fabricate evidence, gag, censor, ban Voter ID, and flood the country with tens of millions of illegals we could save democracy.

States should pay half the bill for Medicaid and food stamps. Right now, they administer programs with money that isn't theirs, and that's exactly why fraud runs wild.

I promise to help defeat ANY Republican Senator that blocks the SAVE America Act.

If Senate Majority Leader Thune DOES not do his job to caucus his Republican majority to pass the SAVE America Act,

he will have a Texas-sized primary in 2028.

Refusing to air a presidential speech to the nation about election fraud seems like a horrible way to convince people you weren't in on the election fraud.

Across the board, regardless of who the president is, when the President of the United States makes an address to the nation, federally licensed broadcasters should broadcast it.

If they refuse, they should lose their licenses.
