Abbott is a man of action.

For those of you who think that Texas is a low tax paradise, it isn’t in regards to property taxes. My primary residence property tax is $17,000 a year. The majority of which goes towards the school district.

Phelan, the Speaker of the Texas House, is a jackass Rino. But Abbott is a governor of which any Texan could be proud.

“The border security call also does not include language regarding a border protection unit,“

Yeah it’s only the most important part of it by far. Abbott is way more Pence than he is Trump. It’s good he’s doing this but we need a fire breather.

17k? You live where?

I have 3 properties and not even close to that. Henderson County.

When I retired we looked very carefully at the property tax situation—and that is the reason we decided not to move to Texas.

Property tax is a critical line item in our budget—and we viewed it as a “high risk” one in Texas.

We had zero confidence that either the feds or the state would get the illegal invasion issue under control.

“Action?” Seriously? I thought.... “Action!” when they made the video of him declaring an invasion.... or a campaign video.
But you mean “action,” like he’s doing something? At the time it matters? In the way it matters to make a difference?

I’ve been shopping houses to buy in TX. The property taxes stopped me like a pic of The View in Speedos.

Looks to me like Gov. Abbott is a Man of Hat. Not a Man of Cattle.

Abbott just figured out that property taxes here are high?

No! No special sessions.

They just had their time to push wokeness and steal everything they could.

Abbott is a fraud, playing for the other side.

“Abbott is a man of action.”

Compared to what?
