NEW: A 24-year-old Honduran charged with murder crossed the US border illegally while posing as a minor amid the #BidenBorderCrisis

INEXCUSABLE. This is the exact sort of thing Rep. Roy has been fighting against since Biden took office

(THREAD) 🧵🧵🧵

nypost.com/2021/11/04/ill…

@GovRonDeSantis

The victim was "a father of four who had taken in the immigrant who told authorities he was 17."

“This horrific crime is the latest example of how unfettered illegal migration costs Floridians’ lives,” @GovRonDeSantis office told @nypost

FACT CHECK: TRUE, more below 🔽🔽🔽

"In keeping with President Biden’s border policy on unaccompanied minors crossing the US border, Ulloa wasn’t turned away"

"It is not clear how Ulloa ended up in Florida after being detained in Texas"

Because BIDEN ENDED Trump's Title 42 protocols for unaccompanied minors

@RepHerrell

In response, Rep. Roy has been fighting to FORCE CONGRESS to vote on restoring the border protocols that would have prevented this accused murderer from entering in the first place.

He introduced a discharge petition with @RepHerrell in APRIL:

Currently, the discharge petition has 195 House Republican signers. ZERO DEMOCRATS

You can see who has signed it here 🔽🔽🔽

@PressSec

ADDITIONALLY: Before Biden's @PressSec said "not many" Republicans were "putting forward solutions" on the #BidenBorderCrisis, Rep. Roy sent "border czar" Kamala Harris a detailed memo that emphasized how Title 42 protocols were ESSENTIAL to stopping it.

dailycaller.com/2021/06/09/chi…

@RepAndyBiggsAZ

More recently: Rep Roy joined with @RepAndyBiggsAZ & others in filing a discharge petition that would force the House to vote on reinstating the Trump administration's "Remain in Mexico" policy (MPP) to curb phony asylum claims at the southern border

clerk.house.gov/DischargePetit…

But those policies aren't the only factor here. Dems in Congress are also pushing for AMNESTY in their massive spending package.

On Wed, Rep. Roy led EVERY SOUTHERN BORDER STATE House R in calling on Pelosi/Schumer to keep it OUT.

0 DEMS joined.

@GovRonDeSantis

Back to the case of the phony UAC accused of murder in Florida, @GovRonDeSantis is right:

"as long as the Biden Administration persists in refusing to enforce our country’s immigration laws, Americans are at needless risk"

CORRECT, but ...

@SecMayorkas

Instead of enforcing the laws on the books, Biden and @SecMayorkas, have been VIOLATING their CONSTITUTIONAL DUTY to faithfully execute the laws of the United States.

Rep Roy outlined this in a detailed memo on why Congress should #ImpeachMayorkas

foxnews.com/politics/chip-…

BOTTOM LINE: Chaos isn't compassion, & the #BidenBorderCrisis has disastrous and deadly consequences far beyond our southern border.

It's time to end the madness, uphold the law, and secure the border for the sake of the American People & those who seek to come here.

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"

(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.

“Today, I voted against the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for FY22.

(THREAD)

“I support the fundamental purpose of the NDAA to ensure we have well trained service members with all the tools necessary to carry out their mission — but unfortunately it has been hijacked by the radical left.

“Under no circumstances will I support a NDAA that requires my daughter — and thousands of other young women — to register for the draft. I will not stand for it.

19 Republican senators just voted for a $1.2 trillion “infrastructure” package that’s filled with leftist garbage.

There’s been a lot of smoke and mirror efforts to hide what’s in this bill, so let’s take a look at what they actually voted for.

🧵THREAD 🧵(1/14)

First, the bill isn’t focused on hard infrastructure and instead provides billions to Green New Deal programs.

For example, it funnels $16.2 billion to renewable and energy efficiency projects and $7.5 billion to electric vehicle chargers. (2/14)

Even when it funds "hard" infrastructure, it also wastes your money on programs that have no business being in an “infrastructure” bill.

Of the $65 billion for broadband, over $14 billion goes to a permanent federal welfare program to pay individuals’ internet bills. (3/14)

Today, I objected to the seating of my colleagues from six states: AZ, GA, MI, NV, PA, and WI.

It would confound reason if the presidential results of these states were to face objection while the congressional results of the same process escaped public scrutiny.

I believe our body should vote on the certification of those members to ensure the integrity of the House of Representatives is guarded from all suspicion of illegitimacy.

While the Constitution and the 12th Amendment do not make Congress the judge of the states’ presidential electors, it does require us to be the arbiters of the elections to this body.

@POTUS

I am as outraged as anyone about the still-unanswered questions about the election. But the Constitution is clear:

States select electors. Congress does not.

There is only one path to victory for @POTUS on Jan. 6: state legislatures certifying Trump electors in states at issue

@POTUS

@POTUS Thank you to @RepNancyMace @RepKenBuck @RepThomasMassie @RepGallagher @RepArmstrongND and @RepMcClintock for standing with me and the constitution on this effort.

"[O]nly the states have authority to appoint electors, in accordance with state law. Congress has only a narrow role in the presidential election process. Its job is to count the electors submitted by the states, not to determine which electors the states should have sent."

THREAD (RE: CHINA AND AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES):

Some 81 colleges and universities in the United States have institutes with close ties to China’s communist government that attempt to stifle free speech and promote Chinese propaganda within American higher education.

Known as “Confucius Institutes,” these institutions receive funding and oversight primarily from the Hanban, located in Beijing and affiliated with the People’s Republic of China (PRC).

There are numerous examples of communist Chinese officials putting pressure on American ...

universities that host Confucius Institutes to avoid making statements or holding events on topics they deem politically sensitive. Even more, Chinese teachers at these institutes sign contracts w/ the Chinese government pledging to not damage the communist government’s interests
