For those wondering what Greg Abbot has accomplished in his 12 years as governor.
Vote @GinaHinojosaTX
What they’re waking up to in San Antonio!
“After 12 years of Greg Abbott, data centers are driving up utility bills, property taxes are 85% higher, and as public schools close their doors, Texas’s violent crime rate has remained above the national average.”

Kudos to the legal team that valiantly fought to protect Big Bend! 👏🏽
Remember, Texans: @GregAbbott_TX could have fought the federal government to protect our national treasure. But he didn’t.
He cared more about pleasing Donald Trump than saving Big Bend.

BREAKING: Bulldozers and excavators are being trucked out of Big Bend after our historic legal victory halting construction across the region on Friday.

Hey, @KenPaxtonTX if you have nothing to hide, let the public see these depositions. 🧐
Vote @jamestalarico
A lawyer for Ken Paxton’s wealth manager is asking a Collin County court to keep the attorney general’s sworn depositions from a years-old securities fraud dispute under seal, arguing that Democrat James Talarico’s U.S. Senate campaign has no legal standing to seek their release. bit.ly/4ywTncG

She wouldn’t tolerate Ken Paxton’s immoral and corrupt conduct.
But she expects Texans to.

Washington republicans have broken our economy.
Texas republicans have broken our public schools.
Rural Texas school districts are poised to lose millions of dollars in funding this year after thousands of students reported using vouchers to leave for private or home schools, according to a new analysis of state data. bit.ly/4yuz0wK

Pls don't overreact to the SCOTUS SAVE database decision
Page 6 of the decision makes clear that we are in the 90 day statutory window when mass changes can't be made to voter lists!
It's a shit decision for the reasons the 3 dissenters say but we can deal w/it. More to come..
Breaking News: The Supreme Court ruled the Trump administration can deploy an expansive voter identification tool, allowing states to hunt for ineligible voters. Critics fear using the system could result in the purging valid voters from state rolls. nyti.ms/3TsCnVE

The federal government is paying for this…while cutting your healthcare, nutrition programs, and while the price of gas is going through the roof because of his illegal war.

Quick refresher on how we got here. @GregAbbott_TX accepted $20 million from data center special interests, handed them some of the largest tax giveaways in the nation, then months before his toughest re-elect ever, he flip-flopped and ordered an audit of a situation he created.
800 acres of agricultural land outside Dallas may soon be converted into a data center campus. Some residents are fighting back. cbsn.ws/47aMPEk

If serious, @GregAbbott_TX would call an immediate special legislative session (he did it for bathrooms), identify bills that would protect Texans, & give counties zoning authority to stop data centers in rural areas.
Anything less is a joke.
Protect Texas, vote @GinaHinojosaTX
NEW: Gov. Greg Abbott has extended his data center moratorium to a halt of all air and water permits at the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality dallasnews.com/news/politics…

Under Greg Abbott, our property taxes have gone up 85% while he took millions in donations from billionaires and corporations.
If he wanted to lower taxes, he had plenty of chances to do so in the last 12 years he's been governor.

This is a nightmare scenario on so many levels
🚨🚨SCOOP: A shipment of F-35 fighter jet parts was rerouted to Hong Kong this summer — then vanished.
Congress and DOD are investigating, amid the possibility that China may now have access to the highly-classified program.

In El Paso, Meta’s data center is getting big local tax breaks to build a data center that the majority of the community opposes.
And it gets worse: thanks to Republicans “one big beautiful bill,” the tech companies building data centers are getting federal tax breaks, too.
Trump-GOP tax policies in action: "Budget forecasters say payments are down 25%, or $96 billion, after falling 15% last year. That’s fueling complaints those investment breaks are providing a windfall for the tech world, & giving a bad deal to taxpayers." politico.com/news/2026/09/14…

Bo French is unfit to serve. His vile racism should very easily and quickly be condemned across the board by all Texas leaders, regardless of political affiliation.
But Greg Abbott can’t bring himself to condemn it. That makes him equally unfit to serve our diverse state.
NEW: In statement, Gov. @GregAbbott_TX says @bofrench post is “not my message,” but does not explicitly condemn it:
“A selective picture of Longhorn fans celebrating our biggest home victory—ever— actually shows a way that Texans unite.”
