THREAD: Everyone should note the conservative groups who are scoring and those which are not. Right now, I am told @Heritage_Action @NumbersUSA @FAIRImmigration are scoring against the #SwampOmnibus. If there are others - advise. (1/x)

So, @amrenewcitizen is loudly opposing, @GunOwners is scoring against, as is @EagleForum, @TPAction_ & @CatholicVote — #SwampOmnibus

@amrenewcitizen @GunOwners @EagleForum @TPAction_ @CatholicVote I believe the @I_A_Project has also come out strongly against the White House-praised, massive #SwampOmnibus

THREAD: The #SwampGOP doesn’t get it, as evidenced by the #SOTU debacle. 1) The GOP powers-that-be invite a radical progressive democrat & lawless potus (Biden) to speak, 2) the same week as passing the first 1/2 of a #SwampOmnibus w/ MORE Democrat votes than GOP… (1/5)

…to give him MORE $$ to continue to his mass-release illegal aliens, many of whom have killed or harmed Americans like Laken Riley, whose name 4) they put on a bill that doesn’t focus on said “mass releases,” while 5) throwing a freshman Senator to the wolves by asking… (2/5)

…her to give the rebuttal knowing she had not yet given even a Senate speech & 6) without fact-checking the speech to help protect her from making an error with an outdated anecdote, & thus 7) allow radical progressive democrats to make THAT the story rather than their… (3/5)

THREAD - The @HouseGOP promised to secure the border & to cut funding to Biden’s radical progressive Democrat agenda... this week, gov’t funding partially expires. WHAT’S THE STATUS? Short Answer: NO PLAN TO FIGHT. Here’s the longer form status update: (1/x)
#NoSecurityNoFunding

…After passing 3 “continuing resolutions” (CR) for 5 mos. at Pelosi funding levels w/ promises to “fight,” an NDAA w/ token “DEI” policy wins & an extension of FISA spying-on-Americans, & no real border security wins, GOP leaders are poised to… INCREASE spending… (2/x)

…& likely fund Ukraine’s border…

This despite a year of hard-fought negotiating that gave us spending caps IN LAW we can enact simply with a CR thru 9/30 to cut total spending, leave defense & veterans untouched, & cut 10% ($73BB) of Biden’s non-defense bureaucracy… (3/x)

THREAD on the “War, Debt, and Open Borders” BILL: The bill is NOT well-intended. It is also not a border security bill. It is, however, a bill designed by Democrats to boost Biden against Trump by helping Dems blame Republicans for open borders… (1/x) #SecureAmericaFirst

…a trap into which some GOP willingly walk in order to fund an insatiable desire for endless wars. The bill BORROWS some $118BB to fund $60BB for Ukraine, in addition to other Foreign Aid (Israel & Taiwan), plus $20BB for alleged “border security…” (2/x) #SecureAmericaFirst

…funding which will ensure MORE border traffic, not less. The border “crisis” is a crisis not of resources or lack of authority, but rather the result of abuse of law by the President - the willing disregard of the text & spirit of laws designed to maintain operational… (3/x)

THREAD: Hypothetical question for @HouseGOP colleagues satisfied with “half a loaf” solutions & needing to “take seriously” the Senate border “deal”… Ok, Let’s say you have a city police & Mayor ignore laws & let homeless camp on your property… (1/5) #NoSenateBorderDeal

…& they prohibit you from stopping it, notwithstanding drug needles, fights, break-ins, assaults, & other safety concerns. You complain & seek enforcement and/or new laws from city council to protect you. City Council says it will pass a new ordinance… (2/5) #NoSenateBorderDeal

…notwithstanding existing laws & common sense… & drafted secretly & without lots of time to review before passing it… that says “well, we will cap the number seeking to come to your property at 20 (instead of the current, but fluid, rate of 40) & we… (3/5) #NoSenateBorderDeal

THREAD: Someone explain this to me. @HouseGOP is being asked by @SpeakerJohnson to vote FOR this NDAA - a bill that forsakes virtually all reforms passed this summer in the House… all to ADD an extension of abusive FISA spying until April 2025… Let’s take them 1-by-1: (1/8)

…1) the @HouseGOP would be voting FOR continuation of the unlawful taxpayer funded abortion tourism policies that @TTuberville fought against in the Senate… & scored against by @FRCAction @CatholicVote @Heritage_Action & others (still hoping for @sbaprolife). (2/8)

…2) the @HouseGOP would be voting FOR continuation of taxpayer funding of transgender surgeries at the Pentagon... all while we see the enormously disastrous consequences of these surgeries on mental health and well-being… (3/8)
