Gina Hinojosa sued “Attorney General” @GregAbbott_TX today. The lawsuit is baseless and nothing more than an embarrassing act of desperation. Gina is abusing her office for political purposes.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Gov. Greg Abbott was more than hospitable when TMZ DC's @jacob_wass stopped by the Governor's mansion ... offering him a brewski and getting a laugh out of Jacob agonizing over whether his stomach could handle it. 🍺

This is not real. Texas does not have party registration.
"I'm a registered Republican. I've never been a registered Democrat." A 30-year Texas educator and Southern Baptist missionary, begging Texas to take "Greg Abbott's knife away from our throats." He's voting for Gina Hinojosa.

The Constitution bans it because Texans rejected it. Gina says Texas needs an income tax anyway.
The Texas Constitution bans a state income tax but nonetheless Abbott’s mailer below is claiming Gina Hinojosa will impose a such a tax. Besides being illegal, it assumes the Republican controlled legislature would support such a measure. Abbott is simply resorting to fear mongering. @bgrumet

Texas cut your property taxes. Overspending local governments wiped out that relief. Governor @GregAbbott_TX’s plan takes the blank check back: spending capped at 3.5% or less, no hike without a two-thirds vote, and voters can force rates down.
In: "From 2022 to 2025, the 10 largest counties & cities in Texas increased their property tax levies by an average of 7.9% compounded annually, wiping out a large portion of the tax relief the #txlege had provided," writes @BillKingHouston billkingblog.com/blog/the-st…

Public school funding is at an all-time high of more than $90 billion a year. Governor @GregAbbott_TX signed $8.5 billion in new public education funding last session alone. Not one penny for school choice comes out of Texas' historic education budget.
$227 million stripped from Texas schools to fund Greg Abbott's corrupt voucher scam. $68 million from Houston ISD alone. Our kids suffer while Abbott's donors get rich. When I'm Governor, I will end the voucher scam and save our neighborhood schools.

Courier Texas is not a newsroom. It is Tara McGowan's advocacy shop funded by George Soros and Epstein pal Reid Hoffman.
ICYMI from @CourierTexas: “Abbott has made Chinese land ownership a central issue of his campaign, but Abbott himself has accepted $55,000 from executives and employees of a Houston developer that partners with companies marketing Texas homes to Chinese investors.” couriertexas.com/news/politi…

Fred was one of the best. Always the first to step up and help. Grateful to have called him a friend. Rest in peace, patriot.
I am devastated by the passing of Fred Doucette. He was a patriot in every sense of the word. He devoted his entire life to serving the state of New Hampshire and his beloved town of Salem. When I ran for Congress, Fred graciously offered his support, wisdom, and counsel to me. He was a good man, and I will miss him. May he rest in peace.♥️

All credit to the grid reforms Governor @GregAbbott_TX and the Texas Legislature pushed so hard for.
Amazing that 91 MW of demand just isn't an issue (or a headline)
