TX Gov Abbott declares disaster as avg diesel price hits $5.86/gallon. Abbott's order does not waive the underlying state fuel tax, which is 20 cents/gallon on both gasoline & undyed diesel. Diesel was $3.30/gallon in TX in early Feb before Trump’s Iran war. www.texastribune.org/2026/09/28/t...

Abbott declares disaster over high diesel prices in Texas

Monday marks seven months since the U.S.-Iran war began, which has restricted oil and gas exports from the Middle East, raising prices ahead of the Nov. 3 election.

As they've made very clear in on the record interviews, they consider anyone who is a non-citizen, regardless of their actual legal status (working papers, student visa, refugee) to be a "criminal" because they are "here illegally" (even if they're following the law). So it's a meaningless claim.

Fûten, the Wind Deity 十二天像　風天図 Hanabusa Itchô late 17th–early 18th century MEDIUM/TECHNIQUEHanging scroll; ink, color, and gold on paper DIMENSIONS90.2 x 37.4 cm (35 ½ x 14 ¾ in.) (height x width) CREDIT LINEWilliam Sturgis Bigelow Collection

Standing resolute upon a floating oval cloud pedestal, Fûten—the Esoteric Buddhist deity of the wind—confronts an unseen gale, his white hair and beard blowing wildly across his stern, weathered face. He firmly grasps a long wooden staff crowned with a luminous sacred jewel (hōju), from which a bifurcated white banner whipped by wind spirals into the upper air. He is clad in intricate armor beneath richly patterned robes of vermilion, gold, and deep indigo, swathed in fluid celestial scarves (tenne) that loop and undulate around his frame like swirling air currents. Set against an unadorned, pale silk ground, the high-contrast mineral pigments and calligraphic line-work translate the raw, invisible kinetic energy of a tempest into a vivid visual experience, echoing the rustle of silk and the howling of mountain winds.
Executed in the late 17th or early 18th century by the celebrated Edo-period master Hanabusa Itchō (1652–1724), this hanging scroll depicts Fûten (Vāyu), the guardian of the northwest among the Jūnitai (Twelve Devas) of Esoteric Buddhism. Trained in the Kanō school before developing his own lively, genre-infused style, Itchō brought a fresh, human vitality and fluid movement to traditional Buddhist iconography. Fûten's role as the controller of winds and purifier of atmospheric defilement reflects the syncretic spiritual landscape of Edo Japan.
