The House of Representatives just voted to pass the #NDAA, 316 - 113

134 Republicans voted for it.

While many of them are going to focus on the uncontroversial parts of this “bipartisan” defense bill, there’s plenty in there that isn’t getting enough attention:

THREAD: (1/9)
(2/9)

First, this bill forces young women to register for the draft, which Rep. Roy has been against from the start.

"A vote for this #NDAA is a vote to draft your daughter, your sister, your mother & your wife" Image
(3/9)

Next up on the list, this #NDAA actually targets the Second Amendment rights of America’s military personnel with unconstitutional, gun-grabbing “red flag” laws.

Yes, that means violating the Constitutional rights of those defending the Constitution. Image
(4/9)

It also creates an “Office of Countering Extremism” which could expel troops who engage in so-called “extremist activities” or belong to an “extremist organization”

Given the rampant wokeism we've seen in Biden's Pentagon, you know EXACTLY how this will be used. Image
(5/9) And what kind of bill has a chance in a Democrat House without a little climate hysteria and green new deal action?

Here’s what 134 Republicans voted for:

We're sure China Russia and Iran are shaking in their boots right now… ImageImageImage
(6/9)

And if electric military vehicles aren’t your thing, maybe we can interest you in some fake meat?

The NDAA directs the Navy to spend time on a pilot program to offer plant-based protein options at forward operating bases. ImageImage
(7/9)

The #NDAA also codifies discriminatory and anti-American Critical Race Theory training for America’s troops and directs the Pentagon to hire “gender advisors”

Again, 134 Republicans voted for this. ImageImage
(8/9) The bill also uses the military as a vehicle to advance gay and transgender agenda politics without any serious debate.

Promotes the LGBTQ agenda

Incorporates SOGI language ImageImage
So yes, 134 Republicans just voted for that.

A woke military that drafts our daughters, wastes resources on Green New Deal garbage, holds no one accountable for Afghanistan disaster, and prioritizes playing leftist politics over destroying our enemies.

Rep. Roy voted no.

9/9

Clinton-appointed, senior D.C. Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly is weaponizing the judicial process.

Kollar-Kotelly has a long record of abusing her power to advance a radical progressive Democrat agenda.

Here are the WORST instances of partisan justice.🧵 Image
Just last week, Kollar-Kotelly sentenced Paulette Harlow, a 75-year-old grandmother, to 2 YEARS in prison for PRAYING at an abortion clinic.

Kollar-Kotelly said she hopes Harlow will “make an effort to remain alive” because that is a “tenet of [Harlow’s] religion.” Image
After being appointed to serve on the FISA Court, Kollar-Kotelly issued a court order allowing the NSA broad authority to resume domestic internet and email metadata collection in July 2004 — leaving American’s data vulnerable to the government spying on them. Image

House leadership says the swamp defense bill secures “crucial wins” for Americans

If the bill is so great, why do you need to suspend House rules and team up with Democrats to get it passed?

Here are just a few ways this bill FAILS to refocus our military🧵⤵️ #NDAA Image
This swamp bill uses American taxpayer dollars to FUND Biden's radical and illegal abortion travel fund Image
This swamp bill uses American taxpayer dollars to FUND transgender surgeries at the Pentagon Image

Today is National United Nations Day

The United States is the organization’s LARGEST contributor and provide a WHOPPING 22% of the UN Budget

Let’s take a look at what US taxpayer dollars to the UN are promoting⤵️🧵
While Israel is defending the sovereignty of their nation UN Secretary General BLAMED Israel for Hamas’ terrorist attack saying, “Hamas attacks did not happen in a vacuum, the Palestinian people have been subjected to 56 years of suffocating occupation"

Sadly, it should be no surprise anti-Israel hatred has been alive and well at the UN for decades.

The UN General Assembly has condemned Israel 140x since 2005

To put in perspective, China has only been condemned once.

Meet President Biden’s pick for CDC Director: Dr. Mandy Cohen Image
Mandy Cohen is the wrong choice to run the CDC

Earlier this week, Rep. Roy led 27 lawmakers in demanding that President Biden withdraw his unqualified pick

Here’s why Dr. Mandy Cohen should NOT be given power over the American people⬇️🧵

foxnews.com/politics/repub…
Mandy Cohen helped found “Doctors for Obama.”

Can the American people really trust an Obama organizer to run the CDC without bias?

Biden is LYING about @HouseGOP’s responsible debt ceiling plan

Why?

Because he doesn’t want Americans to know the truth that HIS rampant spending is fueling the inflation and policies that are ACTUALLY hurting our veterans

THREAD
What Biden isn’t telling you is that HIS OWN Office of Management of Budget suggested cutting the VA by 22%

Just look at this letter the VA sent Democrat appropriators

Meanwhile, House Republicans have NEVER said this Image
Meanwhile 80% of disabled veterans said inflation brought on by President Biden’s reckless spending created financial hardship for their families last year

2/3s said they “couldn’t make ends meet at some point in the past 12 months”

Last Friday, CBP finally released their southern border encounter numbers for December - 251,487. This is the HIGHEST month EVER recorded.

67% of these encounters were single adults (480K).

Congress can put a stop to this crisis IMMEDIATELY.

More below. #HR29 THREAD 🧵🧵
For 2yrs, the crisis has gotten WORSE

DEC numbers show a 38% INCREASE in encounters compared to the first 3 mos. of FY22

170K+ of DEC encounters were from countries other than MX or northern triangle ➡️ highest # from “other countries” we’ve seen in recent history.
PLUS, Under Biden, we have seen over 4.6 MILLION encounters at our southern border.

Most have been released into the interior and will stay here indefinitely.

This is no accident

Biden has shown the world that our borders are open and vulnerable to exploitation
