THREAD: @PressSec - having refused to apologize for accusing @CBP agents of whipping Haitians… extends lies to oil: “What additional permits do they need? …The leases are there, the permits are there. I don’t think they need an embroidered invitation..” (1/x) #EnergyFreedom
This is stupid, a lie, or both: Oil is around $120 a barrel; do you really think companies don’t want to drill right now? They can’t because of the administration’s assault on reliable American oil & gas. #EnergyFreedom (2/x)
Companies have applied for a bunch of permits because they know they’re under attack… Biden in a 2020 debate: “No more drilling on federal lands. No more drilling including offshore. No ability for the oil industry to continue to drill. Period.” #EnergyFreedom (3/x)
Psaki: “The leases are there.” NO. The leases ARE NOT there. The administration has not held A SINGLE onshore oil & gas lease sale since taking office. This has caused companies to slow drilling (regardless of # permits) b/c they don’t know whether they’ll get new leases. (4/x)
“What additional permits do they need?” They need additional permits for things like rights of way & pipelines to move the oil they produce. Biden has waged war on pipelines (Keystone XL, FERC regs, etc.). #EnergyFreedom (5/x)
The admin is actively blocking the capital necessary for drilling:  Kathleen Sgamma, president of the Western Energy Alliance, said, “We can’t get capital because they’re putting so much pressure on banks not to lend to us in the name of climate change.” #EnergyFreedom (6/x)

#SWAMPSPENDING THREAD: 1) We were sent vote times & “Omnibus” spending bill at 230AM. 2) It is 2700 pages & we vote at 1000AM. 4) Top-line spending appears to be $1.512 Trillion. 3) We are told it is a 6% increase year-over-year, NOT counting Ukraine or COVID Supp… (1/6)
… 4) We can’t identify their “baseline” for saying 6% increase, it appears higher, but we cannot tell. 5) We are aware of zero actual changes to USA Oil & Gas restrictions. 6) We are aware of zero changes to COVID vax mandates… (2/6) #DefundTyranny #DefundVaxMandates
…7) We are aware of zero meaningful policy changes for our open border - only more money for CBP/ICE - which means more money to process illegal immigrants, and more money for MPP/Return to MX, which DHS is ignoring anyway!… (3/6) #SecureBorderNow

Thread: Visited @BPUnion @CBP, @TxDPS, & ranchers in Del Rio, Tx w/ 4 @freedomcaucus colleagues, 5 #TxLege Freedom Caucus & @russvought, coordinating to protect Tx from cartels, crime, fentanyl, & devastation of open borders. We will not wait 3 years. #SecureOurBorderNow (1/6) ImageImage
Great Americans: @RepMattSchaefer @MattShaheen @BriscoeCain @Toth_4_Texas @brianeharrison @replouiegohmert @RepAndyBiggsAZ @RepCloudTX @RepBobGood @russvought hearing from Border Patrol on the front lines - looking at crumbling fence next to unfinished Trump fence. (2/6) Image
Met with @TxDPS getting an update on Operation Lone Star. State shouldn’t have to step into the breach of refusal of Biden & Mayorkas to enforce the law… but DPS is - every day - and and if we have, we should not allow ourselves to be held back… It’s an invasion. (3/6) Image

The Big Choice

It’s time to embrace the national discussion instead of finger-pointing who’s to blame over last weekend’s meltdown. The elephant in the room IS the mandate and the termination of thousands of employees and disruption of air travel after Nov 24th… (2/15)
…Amazingly, Southwest Airlines finds itself at the center of what is likely one of the most pivotal moments of our lifetimes and nation! There is no going back to “normal” or whatever you want to call pre-Oct 4th when the mandate was announced. There are two paths. Two…(3/15)
