Sad news. @VoteGiovanni is an incredible lawmaker and public servant. I’m sure he will continue to bring that servant leadership to his next endeavor!
New: In a FB post, @VoteGiovanni says he will not seek re-election in 2026. #txlege facebook.com/share/p/16XG8G…?

Solid. I’m guessing @ChatGPTapp didn’t develop this ad.

Silver-backed is good. Gold-backed is great. #Bitcoin (which is backed by energy, cryptography, and the principles of Austrian Economics) is BEST!
Texas has the Bullion Depository. Now let’s use it. A new law authorizes Texans to use gold and silver as legal tender, fulfilling the promise of Article 1, Section 10 of the U.S. Constitution. As Comptroller, I will lead the implementation of a gold- and silver-backed currency…

Looks like the @AmericaPartyX is leaning into #bitcoin. Low time preference and high conviction on data driven, economically sound critical thinking. Their account just retweeted @saylor.
Some weeks you just need to HODL. Some decades, you need a new political party. The America Party. Built for what comes next.
The @TXblockchain_ team had the chance to tour the @acs_asicrepair facility in Dallas this week. @jamesscaggs has built an amazing company. The facility was state-of-the-art, and their new Bitaxe Touch blew me away! Congratulations to James, Ben Crofford, and their whole team!
Latest jobs report just dropped. Nonfarm payroll increases by 147k. @Polymarket chances of interest rate cut at next Fed meeting is less than 5% now.
Thanks for having me on the @Unchained_pod Laura! Texas allocating the modest sum of $10M to purchase bitcoin is one of the most significant developments in our industry in quite some time! Thank you to @DrSchwertner, @VoteGiovanni, & @GregAbbott_TX for leading from the front!
