Make this viral and support #ginahinojosa for governor of the state of Texas. We can do better Texas. How about a clean sweep? The corruption is unbearable. The cruelty is off the charts. We are pass partisan politics. You can judge a person by the friends they keep. Do I need to say more?

I’m constantly asked two questions: “Why can’t I get traffic on my website?” and “Why do people leave my website and not stay?” I created a clear method to help people understand what’s actually going wrong before throwing money at redesigns.

Ausitn, Texas is building a new convention center. Wouldn't it be amazing if we could have a High-Speed Rail right in the middle? The excuse is always cost. Sadly, we are already decades behind nations like China & Japan.

TikTok’s U.S. business is reportedly being sold to a group led by Oracle ahead of a January 23 ban deadline, with ByteDance keeping a minority stake, even though it has already been trained in the U.S. sources say the deal is complete and a ban is unlikely.

Texas is bracing for another terrible unknown winter episode. Austin folks are packing the HEB stores (our major grocery chain) in search for supplies–hoping the power grid will holdup. No excuses Abbot!

I saw a post on Linkedin about Elon Musk's Sieg Heil salute. Even more surprising was the gaslighting. It's as if over 100 people were convinced 2+2=5. It's very sad. This episode reminded me of the Amazon Series "The Man on the High Castle" It's a two times Emmy winning science fiction series.

America, we are 50+ years behind nations like China in infrastructure development. We don't have fast rails. Our bridges are falling apart, NYC subway stations are rat infested ,homeless tents are everywhere-China is so far ahead of us. They are putting us to shame. Will we pivot? #infrastructure

This video explains how eco-landscapes, rejuvenated watersheds in the forest and more, can act as a resistance. Not a panacea but interesting. We need all hands on deck for solutions. You can jump to the animation at 3:03 on the video (but the intro is important) www.youtube.com/watch?v=snN1...
