This is right by @mirandadevine, as we have said for 2+ months (incl. @StephenM). @GOPLeader is correct, but ALL @HouseGOP must be pressed & @SteveScalise must whip it. @LeaderMcConnell must demand it of @SenateGOP. THREAD: (1/6) nypost.com/2022/09/25/rep…
The following 42 House members & 14 senate members have pledged to AT LEAST oppose any “omnibus” spending bill OR “CR” into a lame duck… hardly a big lift, when we SHOULD be holding up funding to force border security... (2/6) #StandUpForAmerica #NotOneMorePenny

To “Make the Economy Strong,” we must COMMIT to 1) balance the budget in 10 yrs & appropriate to it (stop spending $ we don’t have); 2) unapologetically expand reliable nuclear & gas energy by opening federal lands & permitting… (1/13) #StandUpForAmerica #CommitmentToAmerica
To “Make the Economy Strong,” we must COMMIT to… 3) end subsidies distorting toward unreliable energy; 4) use federal investment power & SEC regulatory power to end the anti-free enterprise woke “ESG” constraint on capital. (2/13) #StandUpForAmerica #CommitmentToAmerica
To “Make the Nation Safe,” we must COMMIT to secure our border NOW by 1) using the purse power to require turn away or full detention, no exceptions, 2) tightening asylum & eliminating loopholes, & 3) building the wall / roads… (3/13) #StandUpForAmerica #CommitmentToAmerica

At 930AM, the @SenateGOP on the Armed Services Committee began debate (in private) on the #NDAA. There will likely be an amendment, again, to draft our daughters. Last year, several GOP Senators voted yes. That was asinine. They should not do it again… (1/5)
Those voting no last year:
James Inhofe
Wicker, Roger
Cotton, Tom
Hawley, Josh
Rounds, Mike

Voted YES (or Not Present) last year:
Fischer, Deb
Ernst, Joni
Tillis, Thom
Sullivan, Dan
Cramer, Kevin
Scott, Rick
Blackburn, Marsha
Tuberville, Tommy

… Absurd that @GOP is even considering advancing a bill that harms military readiness by ignoring biology - data shows on average among volunteers that males are more effective in combat. One study by Marines ($36 million) showed all male units outperformed mixed units… (3/5)

Thread on corporate America. Too may conservatives are caught up in a 1990’s business school view of laissez-fair economics assuming those corporations are acting to maximize shareholder value as opposed to advancing an agenda & are acting removed from corporate cronyism… (1/8)
…Instead, corporate America is - across multiple industries - using massive market power combined with government-corporate cronyism to impact negatively - in real time - the lives, liberty, & ability to pursue happiness of the American people… (2/8)
…It is hardly deniable that #BigTech & #BigMedia are using their power along with govt regulatory protection to impact what we read, see, & hear in a way designed to affect policy. It’s true re: #COVID, race/CRT/BLM, gender/trans (e.g. Disney), CO2/Energy & more… (3/8)

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)

#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
