Governor Greg Abbott sent social media into overdrive this week after jokingly warning that he would impose a \u201c100 percent tariff\u201d on anyone fleeing New York City for Texas if progressive candidate Zohran Mamdani wins the mayor\u2019s race.<\/p>\n
Abbott\u2019s post on X (formerly Twitter) captured the mood of many Texans frustrated by what they view as the consequences of liberal policies\u2014high taxes, crime, and economic decline\u2014driving residents away from blue states.<\/p>\n
While the governor\u2019s remark drew headlines, supporters say it underscores a serious message: Texas\u2019s economic strength and public safety record did not happen by accident.<\/p>\n
Abbott\u2019s office clarified that the statement was tongue-in-cheek but reflected the governor\u2019s growing concern over the influx of residents from Democrat-run cities who then vote for the same policies they left behind.<\/p>\n
\u201cTexas has become America\u2019s economic engine because we protect freedom, keep taxes low, and back the blue,\u201d Abbott said in a follow-up statement.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf people want to enjoy that success, they should embrace the principles that built it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Texas continues to lead the nation in job creation and business relocations, even as cities like New York and San Francisco struggle with population losses and rising costs of living.<\/p>\n
Economists credit the state\u2019s balanced budgets, energy independence, and pro-growth regulations as key to its stability during national downturns.<\/p>\n
Conservatives argue that liberal leaders have undermined once-thriving cities with soft-on-crime policies and aggressive tax hikes, prompting families and businesses to seek refuge in Republican-led states.<\/p>\n
Abbott\u2019s playful \u201ctariff\u201d line resonated widely across social media, where thousands of users echoed the sentiment that Texas should protect its way of life.<\/p>\n
\u201cTexans built something worth preserving,\u201d wrote one supporter. \u201cWe just don\u2019t want outsiders bringing failed ideas with them.\u201d<\/p>\n
Democratic critics seized on the governor\u2019s remark, calling it divisive. But Republicans counter that Abbott\u2019s record\u2014on border security, energy independence, and job creation\u2014speaks for itself.<\/p>\n
The governor has repeatedly urged new arrivals to respect local laws and values, emphasizing Texas\u2019s unique blend of liberty and responsibility.<\/p>\n
Under Abbott\u2019s leadership, the state has attracted major employers such as Tesla, Oracle, and Samsung, while maintaining some of the nation\u2019s lowest overall tax burdens.<\/p>\n
Supporters say those achievements validate conservative governance in action and justify Abbott\u2019s defense of Texas\u2019s model.<\/p>\n
\u201cTexas doesn\u2019t need to import New York\u2019s problems,\u201d said state Senator Bryan Hughes. \u201cWe need to keep exporting our solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n
The exchange comes amid growing national debate over population shifts from blue states to red, with U-Haul reporting record demand for one-way moves to Texas and Florida.<\/p>\n
Abbott\u2019s allies describe the viral post as a symbol of Texas pride\u2014and a warning to progressive politicians that their failed policies are driving Americans elsewhere.<\/p>\n
By standing firm, Abbott once again positioned Texas as a standard-bearer for conservative success and a model for states seeking prosperity through freedom, security, and common sense.<\/p>\n
As the governor summed it up: \u201cWe welcome anyone who shares our values. But if you want Texas results, you\u2019ve got to believe in Texas principles.\u201d<\/p>\n
BREAKING: Anna Paulina Luna Claims The Biden DOJ DESTROYED\u2026<\/p>\n
Representative Anna Paulina Luna has leveled explosive information against the Biden Department of Justice, claiming that critical materials related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation have been deliberately destroyed.<\/p>\n
This assertion, if proven true, would represent one of the most damning instances of governmental obstruction and cover-up in recent history.<\/p>\n
Luna, who chairs a congressional task force focused on federal transparency, has stated unequivocally that she possesses evidence implicating high-ranking officials in the DOJ.<\/p>\n
According to her, these officials not only failed to disclose materials related to Epstein but actively destroyed them to conceal the extent of powerful individuals\u2019 involvement in Epstein\u2019s criminal network.<\/p>\n
She introduced legislation titled the SHRED Act, aimed at imposing severe penalties on government agents who destroy or conceal federal records. The proposed bill calls for 20 years to life in prison for anyone caught eliminating evidence in cases of national significance.<\/p>\n
\u201cEven if they are conducting a criminal investigation, you should probably pick up the phone and call us,\u201d Luna told Fox News. \u201cWe have been more than patient.\u201d<\/p>\n
These developments come amid growing conservative suspicion that the Biden administration has no interest in unmasking Epstein\u2019s full network. The notion that key records could be gone forever only intensifies fears that justice is being buried under a bureaucratic rug.<\/p>\n
Luna\u2019s office has reportedly sent multiple requests to the Department of Justice demanding clarity on the handling of Epstein-related materials. So far, those inquiries have been met with either vague responses or complete silence.<\/p>\n
The congresswoman did not mince words in her public statements, suggesting that the DOJ\u2019s behavior constitutes a deliberate act of obstruction. If true, such actions could violate federal law and trigger an entirely new legal battle.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Biden DOJ has obstructed Congress, ignored subpoenas, and now appears to have destroyed critical evidence,\u201d Luna said. \u201cThis is corruption at the highest level.\u201d<\/p>\n
Critics argue that this is yet another example of double standards in Washington. \u201cHad this been a Republican-led DOJ accused of destroying documents in a child sex trafficking case, the media would be apoplectic,\u201d one conservative commentator noted.<\/p>\n
For years, the Epstein case has symbolized the deep rot within America\u2019s elite circles. The financier\u2019s suspicious death in prison and the subsequent lack of high-profile indictments have fueled accusations of a widespread cover-up.<\/p>\n
Now, Luna\u2019s allegations breathe new life into those concerns. If records were indeed destroyed, the implications are profound. It would mean that the DOJ, under Biden, actively shielded criminals from justice.<\/p>\n
What\u2019s more troubling is that these destroyed materials could have named prominent individuals\u2014politicians, celebrities, and global financiers\u2014who participated in or enabled Epstein\u2019s crimes.<\/p>\n
In this context, Luna\u2019s SHRED Act isn\u2019t just legislative symbolism. It is a clarion call for accountability in an era marked by elite impunity. Her bill seeks to ensure that future officials think twice before erasing truth from the historical record.<\/p>\n
Despite Luna\u2019s repeated calls for transparency, there has been no formal response from Attorney General Merrick Garland. The silence speaks volumes to many who believe the DOJ is stonewalling on purpose.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, conservative lawmakers have rallied behind Luna. A growing number of Republicans in the House and Senate are voicing support for investigations into the DOJ\u2019s handling of Epstein evidence.<\/p>\n
Some have even floated the idea of appointing a special counsel to probe the matter independently. Given the stakes, such a move may be the only path forward to restore public confidence.<\/p>\n
This latest scandal further erodes the credibility of an already battered Department of Justice. From the Hunter Biden laptop fiasco to the political targeting of conservatives, the agency has been repeatedly accused of partisanship.<\/p>\n
Now, with Epstein documents allegedly destroyed, the DOJ\u2019s credibility is in tatters. Public trust, once broken, is hard to rebuild.<\/p>\n
The American people deserve the truth. And if Luna\u2019s allegations are accurate, they deserve justice, no matter how high the guilty parties sit.<\/p>\n
A Bangladesh Air Force training plane crashed into a school campus in the capital city of Dhaka on Monday, killing at least 16 persons, the majority of whom were kids.<\/strong><\/p>\n According to the office of interim leader Muhammad Yunus, the accident also injured over 100 persons, with at least 83 of them receiving medical attention in other hospitals.<\/p>\n In the afternoon, children were on the Milestone School and College campus in the Uttara section of the city when the plane crashed upon it.<\/p>\n Television images showed smoke and fire rising from the crash site as onlookers attempted to extinguish the flames.<\/p>\n Other videos that have gone viral on social media depict hordes of kids frantically escaping the area.<\/p>\n In a brief statement, the public relations office of the Bangladesh Army confirmed that the fallen F-7 BGI aircraft was Air Force property.<\/p>\n Yunus went on to say that\u00a0\u201cnecessary measures\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0would be made to\u00a0\u201censure all kinds of assistance\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0and look into the accident\u2019s cause.<\/p>\n \u201cThe loss suffered by the Air Force\u2026students, parents, teachers and staff, and others in this accident is irreparable,\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n According to the local newspaper Prothom Alo, preliminary reports suggested that the jet had collided with the college canteen\u2019s roof.<\/p>\n The incident occurs just over a month after the world\u2019s worst aviation tragedy in a decade occurred when an Air India airline fell on top of a medical college hostel in Ahmedabad, India, a neighboring city. The crash killed 241 of the 242 persons on board and 19 on the ground.<\/p>\n Fuel switches for the engines of the lost Boeing 787 Dreamliner started to lose thrust and sank shortly after taking off for London from the Indian city on June 12, according to an early study into the tragedy.<\/p>\n The audio recorder in the cockpit captured one pilot asking the other why he had cut off the fuel in the last moments of the flight.<\/p>\n According to the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) report from India,\u00a0\u201cthe other pilot responded that he did not do so.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n It did not identify which remarks were made by the flight\u2019s captain and which by the first officer, nor which pilot immediately transmitted the distress call:\u00a0\u201cThrust not achieved\u2026 falling\u2026 Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n All but one passenger on board and 19 persons on the ground were killed when the airplane crashed into a dormitory in Gujarat, lost altitude, and burst into a blaze seconds later.<\/p>\n Early evaluations by investigators show that neither the Boeing nor its engines appear to have been at fault, indicating that neither Boeing nor engine manufacturer GE appeared to be accountable for the accident.<\/p>\n However, how the switch, which is used to start or stop the engines and is usually left on during flight, might have flipped to the cutoff position is not explained in the paper.<\/p>\n \u201cDid they move on their own or did they move because of the pilots?\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0he asked.\u00a0\u201cAnd if they were moved because of a pilot, why?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n \u2018Allowable limits\u2019 were met by the jet\u2019s 54,200 kg of fuel, according to the study.<\/p>\n \u201cThe aircraft achieved the maximum recorded airspeed of 180 Knots IAS at about 08:08:42 UTC and immediately thereafter, the Engine 1 and Engine 2 fuel cutoff switches transitioned from RUN to CUTOFF position one after another with a time gap of 01 sec,\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0the report said.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Engine N1 and N2 began to decrease from their take-off values as the fuel supply to the engines was cut off.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Referring to data recovered from the plane\u2019s two Enhanced Airborne Flight Recorders (EAFR), it continues:\u00a0\u201cAs per the EAFR, the Engine 1 fuel cutoff switch transitioned from CUTOFF to RUN at about 08:08:52 UTC.
