Texans from Waco to Harlingen are raising concerns over how much energy and water data centers are poised to use.

Local officials, some enticed by a tax boon, say they have little power to stop the rush.

Texans are fed up with paying the Greg Abbott Corruption Tax – we’re ready for change.

We're building a movement of working Texans ready to take our state back, and we'll be hard at work every day until we win.

Hillary Clinton ® @HillaryClinton X.com So let's stop the games. If you want this fight, @RepJamesComer, let's have it—in public. You love to talk about transparency. There's nothing more transparent than a public hearing, cameras on. We will be there.

MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!”

So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it
