I am so thankful for our incredible #HD64 patriots. Thank you to everyone who came out to hear @realBrandonGill, @CSalcedoShow, @RickGreenTX, & Gene Bailey. Also appreciative to @ShelleyLuther, @brentmoney, & @olcott4texas for joining in on the final panel.
Thank you to so many who worked hard to make last evening possible.

There is some seriously Orwellian nonsense taking place in the TxLege DEMs legislation filings.
For example, Donna Howard of Austin wants to redefine abortion from “death of an unborn child” to ending “the medical condition of pregnancy.”
On Veteran’s Day, we honor every man and woman who has worn the uniform and stood in the gap for this country. They left home, answered the call and sacrificed so the rest of us could live free.
Thank a veteran.

The media dismissed the 2019 constitutional state income tax ban passed by Texas Republicans as a “political stunt”. With Democrats about to take control, it is now clear it was one of the most important laws passed by Texas Republicans the past decade.
That income tax amendment looks much more important now than it did last year. Need more of this long term thinking in #txlege
When people tell you who they really are, believe them. 👇
New: @Senfronia4Texas names her transition team, which includes six former speakers.
Ben Barnes, Gib Lewis, Pete Laney, Joe Straus, Dennis Bonnen, and Dade Phelan. #txlege

Gov Gina’s energy plan is to copy California’s, whose energy rates are double that of Texas.
California froze energy rates and they turned in to the “Brown Out” State.
California is now 100% higher than Texas
•Texas Average Electricity
15.9¢ per kWh Vs California
29.8¢ per kWh
•Texas Average Natural Gas
0.0046¢ per BTU Vs California 0.0087¢ per BTU

This is what the left wants for Texas--to turn Texas into one more autocratic and dysfunctional blue state.
Texas already has 1084 bills pre-filed for the next session.
Legalize pot
Redistrict
Red flag laws
Property tax increases
Expand eligibility for Medicaid including low-income individuals
New rules on water rights
New rules on subdivisions
Electric utility "monopolies"
Raise state minimum wage to $15/hr
Prohibition of construction of border security measures on state park lands
A "Texas solution" to reforming and addressing issues related to the Medicaid program, including the creation of an alternative program designed to ensure health benefit plan coverage to certain low-income individuals through the private marketplace; requiring a fee.
Reducing ad valorem tax breaks for farmers
Using public funds for lobbying activities
Designating August "Firearm Safety Awareness Month"
The list is massive. Feel free to look at it yourself here:

FELONY to transfer many semiautomatic rifles to adults under 21 (HB 173)

It was a pleasure attending the Denton County Conservative Coalition’s Friendsgiving celebration!
The evening featured an insightful message from the keynote speaker, Fox News contributor, Joe Concha.
I was honored that students from Turning Point USA joined Amanda and I at our table. Their enthusiasm and commitment to civic engagement are encouraging examples of the next generation taking an active role in shaping the future of our state.
I am grateful for the individuals and organizations throughout Denton County who remain engaged and committed to the principles that make Texas strong.
The Marine Corps was founded in 1775 by Continental Congressman John Adams to serve as naval infantry and landing forces for the Continental Navy.
They conducted amphibious landings and raids from ships, provided shipboard security, and fought in ship-to-ship combat. Their first major operation was the March 1776 raid on New Providence Island in the Bahamas, where Marines captured British supplies.
After the war ended in 1783, the Continental Navy and Marines were disbanded. The modern Marine Corps was formally established in 1798 under the Department of the Navy, but the service still observes November 10, 1775, as its birthday.
From the raid on New Providence to Fallujah, these brave troops have fought, bled, and died for your liberty.
Happy 251st, Marines.
The transformation of America into the 3rd world resumes.

We lost some elections Tuesday night. But we didn’t lose our God.
He was faithful at Valley Forge. He was faithful at the Alamo and at San Jacinto. He has been faithful through every dark night this nation has faced, and He is faithful today.
The Battle Hymn of the Republic was written while America was tearing itself apart. And its message still resounds generations later, "His truth is marching on."
The trumpet has sounded again, and it shall never call retreat.
(This is a portion of the speech I delivered on Tuesday night at @JaceYarbrough’s victory party. Not every race was lost.)

This is accurate @AndyHopperTX
The reason conservative lawmakers in Texas are not jumping on this bandwagon:
1) Democrats would never show up for quorum, and would just flee the state if they thought the Governor might press them into service.
2) If Republicans sought to punish them, the punishments would never take effect and would be reversed in January.
3) It would cost the state millions with zero chance of success.
This maneuver is designed deflect the ire of Texans from radical democrats and onto Republican statewides who are packing their boxes.

I’ve asked @brianeharrison privately to come on the show and explain how this would work.
He has not responded.
I’m now asking him publicly if he would like to explain the special session plan and how R’s could pass something.

It should be our honor to share the Gospel with all peoples. In an age where it's easier than ever to socialize, we should exercise our responsibility in the great commission to spread the Good News!
My oldest Grant and I had an awesome day honoring our WWII veterans with Liberty Jump Team at Meacham Airport. What a privilege to fly with these heroes, including Wise County's own MSgt Charlie Braun, aboard Vintage C-47 "Southern Cross."
Thank you to LTC Peter Plank for the invitation today!

A governor can't freeze electricity rates. And even if she could, it's a guaranteed way to cause blackouts.
Democrats always promise to help people. Their economic policies always end up hurting them.

They weren't kidding around when they called our border a "welcome mat."
Exclusive: U.S. Department of Homeland Security officials are concerned enough about the new Texas governor to order “worst-case scenario” plans, a top U.S. Customs and Border Protection official disclosed to me.”
