“When my agency was tasked with creating Texas’ first-ever Broadband Development Office and bringing reliable high-speed internet to every corner of the state, we knew we couldn’t do it alone,” said Comptroller Glenn Hegar as he began his tour to gather citizen's input to help guide the strategic vision of Texas’ new Broadband Development Office (BDO).
Its been true for some time that eight U.S. states have no personal income tax. Those states, from west to east, are: Alaska, Washington, Nevada, Wyoming, South Dakota, Texas, Tennessee & Florida. And since workers tend to want to move to no income tax states like Texas and Florida, others like North Carolina, Mississippi, Arizona and Louisiana want some of that action.
Joe Biden wants $18 billion more for anti-virals, $5 billion more for testing, and $3 billion more to combat future viruses. The outrage here is that no one in Washington seems to be outraged. Believe it or not, there's still at least $500 billion from the last COVID bill that hasn't been spent.
As Ukraine seeks to repel a Russian invasion initiated last week by it's president Vladimir Putin, fewer than 1/3rd of "Likely U.S Voters" have a favorable view of how President Biden is handling of the situation. And after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently announced she'll seek another term in Congress, 60% of voters view her "unfavorably" – including 50% who have a "Very Unfavorable" impression.
Gov. Abbott sent a letter to the Texas Department of Information Resources, and the Texas Department of Public Safety earlier today directing both agencies to use every available resource to safeguard the state’s critical infrastructure – including State & Local Governments, School Districts and private businesses – against potential targeting from Russian cyberattacks.
Governor Greg Abbott issued proclamations announcing Saturday, May 7, 2022 as the special election date for Texas State House Districts 38 and 147
“While I have concerns about how President Biden is handling this nomination process, I look forward to evaluating Judge Jackson on her record, views, and judicial philosophy alone."
The data comes as part of a report that the Federal Reserve uses to measure inflation.
Barack Obama engaged in what Democrats today would call "Voter Suppression" to win his Illinois State Senate seat not all that long ago. Obama now says, "That is not how democracy is supposed to work" – but, "Gerrymandering" was not the only hard-boiled tactic employed by the young, ambitious politician.
“Joe Biden is a sheep leading a nation of lions, and because of his weakness America has never been in a more powerless position. The incompetence Americans have suffered through over the last year is now clearly spreading beyond our borders, and the world is watching,” said Texas Cong. Brian Babin,
"The harrowing images and videos of Russian forces attacking Ukrainian cities are a stark reminder of what happens when the world lacks strong American leadership. I've been proud to serve our country – including in times of war – and know firsthand the horrors of combat. Putin and his cronies must be held accountable for their crimes and assault," said Cong. Pfluger, a decorated fighter pilot who served in the Pentagon and NATO.
"When we work together to put children first, we see amazing things happen. The Stephens Campus for Children & Families is a living example of West Texas' commitment to surrounding children with love and support, and I'm grateful for our continued partnership to ensure that every child in Texas has the opportunity to live a life worthy of their promise," said Mrs. Abbott at the grand opening in San Angelo.
What's really behind the recent pessimistic appraisals of democracy's future from Hillary Clinton, Adam Schiff, Brian Williams and other elites & media personalities on the Left? Joe Biden's negatives are running between 50-to- 57%, and less than a third of the country wants him to run for re-election. In other words, they're terrified democracy will work too robustly.
“In 2020, Austin Police defended the State Capitol from criminal assault, protected the Austin Police Department Headquarters from being overrun, cleared Interstate 35 from being shut down, and disrupted criminal activity in areas across the city. Many officers were physically attacked while protecting Austin. Those officers should be praised for their efforts, not prosecuted."
“Last week the Harris County Commissioners Court approved a budget plan rejecting 82% of the funding requests from Law Enforcement Agencies in the county. People are begging for safer streets and our police outlined the resources they need to combat this dangerous spike in crime – yet County Commissioners are turning a deaf ear. Rest assured; counties that choose to 'Defund the Police' will be held accountable.”
We are likelier to avoid war with Russia by backing up our diplomacy with military might – that strengthens deterrence – than by telegraphing what we are afraid of. President Biden needs to up his game. Mr. Biden’s troubles stem from an arrogance that he’s right – he has always been right. But the real problem in Mr. Biden's policy is, the president.
If a challenge was to name any Postmaster General other than Benjamin Franklin, your money would be safe – unless you're a Socialist-Democrat or Liberal Activist. Then the name Louis DeJoy will roll of your tongue with venom. Democrats want DeJoy gone so President Biden can name his own henchman to ram through “voting by mail reforms” and implemented their plan as needed. Then, the rest of the mail services the Post Office provides would become irrelevant.
"Because the Texas Department of Family & Protective Services is responsible for protecting children, I hereby direct your agency to conduct a prompt and thorough investigation of any reported instances of these abusive procedures in the State of Texas," reads the letter Gov. Greg Abbott sent to the agency directing it to report on the gender-transitioning procedures in Texas.
