Texas is geographically, by population and size of economy one of the heavy hitters within the US. Texas by virtue of it’s size and share of the US economy / population will be a disproportionate large recipient of federal monies. What’s your argument?

You are obviously mis-informed about being a net large recipient of federal income.

The highest return of dollars back to the stats are east and west coast, by far.

The south, and central, support these more metro states for such things as Amtrack, etc.

it also exposes that you think the federal government “has monies”. They take this money from the citizens of each state. Each state gets “some” or “most” back. Texas is in the “some” catagory. NY is in the “most”.
