@TomiLahren Didn’t we try this in Baghdad? Didn’t work as advertised.

@PiperK Does not impact “assistance provided directly to individuals” like SNAP. Please do not post misleading information without a disclaimer that it is merely political propaganda.

@rjochoa Remember we start the season with 4 losses to Eagles and Commanders. Real football teams.

[Richard Smith @RSmithForATXD8]

@Brandonmartine @rjochoa Where are you getting 6 wins? We only play the giants twice. 😂

[Richard Smith @RSmithForATXD8]

@mkelly007 Mackenzie, you are the real deal! Keep up the awesome work!

Tweet thread. Buckle up:

First off, I doubt he wrote this himself.

But let’s talk about the bigger issue: he’s promising things the City of Austin can’t even do. This isn’t leadership; it’s misleading—and wasting taxpayer dollars. Let me explain. 1/

@JSM_ATX How thin do you have to be to live in this house? Asking for a friend who might not qualify…

[Richard Smith @RSmithForATXD8]

@LoewyLawFirm Yeah, if the good cause is your doctor being able to pay private college tuition for 3 kids! 😂

[Richard Smith @RSmithForATXD8]

@MBullockATX Well said Michael.

[Richard Smith @RSmithForATXD8]

@mkelly007 You will be SO missed on Council!

Travis County tax bills are out and available at
https://t.co/QZx5eUIffX
My COUNTY tax went up over 24% ($266) from last year even with Over-65/Homestead exemptions. Last year, County tax was 28% of the total bill; this year it is 32%.

I decided to walk around in my yard and see if I could find that tree that County officials think money grows on. Haven't found it, but I bet there will be some jaws drop by taxpayers who had no idea this was coming.
