Any state government or local government that uses Texas taxpayer money, I have a right to audit them.

I have a right to find out how it's being spent.

I have 3,000 employees.

This position does its own law enforcement division, has over 80 attorneys in-house.

And we have 600 auditors.

I'm turning most of those auditors loose to audit government because I'm also a business guy.

And I know that a dollar we don't spend is another dollar we've saved and we comply to our overburdens and property taxes.

Absolutely, they did.

Of course, they really did.

I mean, they had a lot of foresight for that.

And our legislature only meets every other year for 140 days.

And they didn't want the legislature signing the checkbook.

And they didn't want the executive branch doing that.

And in Texas, unfortunately, I always ask this question, who runs Texas?

And it's a bureaucratic state.

It's an administrative state.

And unfortunately, most of those folks are all Democrats, of course.

We saw what happened in Washington when we've been gaslighted forever.

And I always say this, no one likes cleaning out the garage, but I plan on doing that.

And everyone likes pulling in when it's done.
