What in the world is happening in the Texas comptroller’s office? This is insane! www.texastribune.org/2026/09/15/t...

This Gen-Z politico is running the Texas comptroller’s office

@repcasar.bsky.social Protect PSLF! The ED weaponizing PSLF is reckless and cruel. Public servants (teachers, nurses, public defenders, etc) don’t ask how you vote before they serve you. Congress, not Linda McMahon, determines who’s eligible. Register public comments by Sept 17 and call your reps!

@maddow.msnbc.com (3/3) Yarvin argued America invented political correctness as a way to persecute racists and fascists. "If Americans want to change their government, they're going to have to get over their dictator phobia.” I say, let’s get over our fear of being labeled a conspiracy theorist!

@maddow.msnbc.com (2/3) Yarvin described what he felt were flaws in the accepted "World War II mythology", alluding to the idea that Adolf Hitler's invasions were acts of self-defense. Sound familiar? Substitute Putin for Hitler.
