Unfortunately, some legislators are more focused on advancing their own agendas than listening to the people they represent.
Senator Perry has made it clear he intends to return and push for another ban on THC products that Texans safely and responsibly use. At the same time, he expressed concern about declining alcohol sales—even though alcohol is a known carcinogen.
We’ll never stop fighting for Texas’ hemp industry or for the right of adults to choose these products.
Austin’s DA is embarrassingly incompetent.
-263 missed 90-day deadlines in a single year.
-181 defendants released (some on $1 bonds)
-5 accused of murder
In no world is this acceptable. Call a special lege and get rid of this horrific clown, @GregAbbott_TX
Hey @glangley — I was the head of design for connected devices at Axon when we did the deal with @Flock_Safety.
What you may not know is that our CEO, Rick Smith had met with Vigilant, the ALPR leader at the time.
During the demo, their team pulled up a random Axon employee’s car from the parking lot and showed the Axon leadership everywhere that car had been.
I wasn’t in the meeting, but I’m told Rick immediately kicked them out of the Scottsdale office.
You can make a good case for officers (hell, even politicians) wearing body cams because it empowers citizens to watch the watchers.
Flock offers no such benefit.
You’ll likely justify the surveillance state you’re helping create with platitudes of a “safer society”.
But America wasn’t founded to be safe.
America was founded to be FREE.
Flock is much more compatible with totalitarian countries like China or the UK, and I wish you great success there.
As Benjamin Franklin famously summarized America’s ethos of rugged individualism:
"Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety."
Now kindly get the flock out of America.
🚨CALL THE GOVERNOR!… and tell him to STOP GIVING BIRTH CERTIFICATES TO ILLEGALS!!
512-463-1782
And tell him we need a special session to MAKE BIRTH TOURISM A FELONY!
The Founding Fathers wanted a Government run by the people. You were to leave the private sector, serve in Congress and then return to being a citizen. Staying in the House or Senate for 50 years is not how it's supposed to work. This needs to be fixed!
NEW 🚨: El Salvador’s President Just Issued a Challenge to Trump—“You Have 350 Million People to Liberate.”
This wasn’t a photo op. It was a mission briefing.
At the White House, El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele looked President Trump dead in the eye and said:
“You have 350 million people to liberate.”
Bukele isn’t just talking tough—he has the results to prove that it can be done.
“We turned the murder capital of the world—that’s what the journalists called it—into the safest country in the western hemisphere,” he said.
Critics complain about mass arrests.
Bukele fired back:
“Sometimes they say we imprisoned thousands. I like to say we liberated millions.”
Trump grinned: “That’s very good! Who gave him that line? Do you think I can use that?”
Then Bukele hit the heart of the problem:
“To liberate 350 million people, you have to imprison some. That’s the way it works, right? You can’t just free the criminals and think crime’s going to go down magically. You have to imprison them—so you can liberate 350 million Americans asking for the end of crime and the end of terrorism.”
No fluff. No fantasy. Just facts.
This is what happens when real leaders speak truth.
America is finally ready to listen.
A visa holder coming to South Texas next month was quoted just $6,000 to deliver her baby at Valley Baptist Health System. She had originally planned to give birth in Alabama, where the price was over $20,000, but chose Texas because it was far more affordable. Meanwhile, American mothers regularly receive hospital bills of $25,000 or more for the exact same service.
🚨Update: REP. DAVID LOWE joins the call for Texas HHSC to stop issuing birth certificates to non-citizens!
Thank you, @DavidLowe4Texas!
The Texas government must fight SCOTUS' disastrous birthright citizenship decision with ACTION, not just rhetoric!!
I'm demanding a special session to MAKE BIRTH TOURISM A FELONY!
And I'm calling on Texas HHSC to STOP GIVING BIRTH CERTIFICATES TO NON-CITIZENS!
Texas must act like the sovereign state we are and fight SCOTUS's disastrous birthright citizenship ruling.

So we're just going to pretend this isn't outrageous levels of corruption happening because McConnell's vote is worth trillions of dollars for the foreign and special interests and they can't risk losing control of it?
