🚨🚨🚨Here are just a FEW of the terrible, radical, tyrannical policies Swamp Dems are trying to fund with BILLIONS of YOUR taxpayer $$$ in their new continuing resolution
WARNING: It’s worse than you thought
🧵THREAD (it’s a LONG one):
Dems’ continuing resolution contains NOTHING to secure our border from cartels, illegal migrants, and lethal fentanyl flooding in - and would EMPOWER the Biden admin to make the border crisis WORSE:
🚨Given violent cartels operational control of our border
🚨Allowed fentanyl to pour into communities
🚨Undermined our national sovereignty
🚨Attacked their own employees for doing their jobs
🚨Reported a 70% REDUCTION in removals last year
🚨REFUSES to remove the illegally present individuals the administration does not deem a “threat"
🚨Abuses parole authority to release illegal migrants
🚨 $4.8 billion to @HHSGov's Office of Refugee Resettlement that has LOST migrant children after releasing them to sponsors, including DOZENS in the Houston, Texas area alone
🚨 Millions in grants EACH YEAR to hundreds of NGOs that provide “how-to” guidance on reaching our southern border and effectively SUBSIDIZE illegal migration
This CR would hand over billions of taxpayer dollars to the authoritarian bureaucrats the Biden administration is using to TARGET Americans. It includes:
🚨 $10.8 billion for an @FBI the Biden administration is WEAPONIZING against their political opponents - including the former president - parents concerned about schools, and, just recently, even a pro-life father of seven.
🚨 $1.5 billion for an @ATFHQ that is going after Americans' guns and undermining the 2nd Amendment by pushing gun control via executive fiat and arbitrary enforcement of firearm small businesses
That’s NOT COUNTING the billions Dems want to give tyrannical “public health” agencies - without ANY additional accountability or oversight!
🚨 $45 billion for the @NIH that FUNDED dangerous research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology—and across the world—and has REFUSED to accept any responsibility or open inquiries into its potential role in the COVID-19 pandemic
🚨 $6.3 billion for @NIAIDNews, which is run by
COVID-tyrant-in-chief Anthony Fauci - enough said
🚨Colluded with teachers’ unions to impose school lockdowns and mask mandates
🚨Censored health data they feared would be “misinterpreted”
🚨Shuttered information on natural immunity
🚨Used taxpayer dollars to buy citizens' location data
🚨$3.3 billion for @US_FDA that LIED to the American public about the efficacy of COVID vaccines, enriching Big Pharma in the process.
🚨$612 million for an @OSHA_DOL that Biden tried – but thankfully failed – to weaponize to force millions of Americans to take a COVID-19 vaccine against their will.
🚨$39 million for @HHSOCR, which actively PROMOTES gender transition surgeries for kids, stating that “gender affirming care for minors, when medically appropriate and necessary, improves their physical and mental health”
This is WRONG and Republicans should DEFUND it.
Dems’ CR would also fund radical, destructive energy policies and RESTRICT American energy:
🚨$9.5 billion for an @EPA that recently received a taxpayer-funded windfall of over $40 billion under Dems' so-called “Inflation Reduction Act” so it can CONTINUE waging war on reliable fossil fuel-produced American energy
🚨$424 million for EPA “Clean Air” programs that the radical left has manipulated to DESTROY reliable powerplants, CRIPPLE U.S. refining capacity, and advance climate hysteria
🚨$14.1 billion for @Interior, which, under the leadership of anti-fracking, Green New Deal supporter @SecDebHaaland, has leased fewer federal acres for oil and gas development than ANY administration since WWII.
🚨At least $5 million for @ClimateEnvoy John Kerry to jet set around the world in his quest to destroy reliable energy, while browbeating poor nations about the importance of sacrificing their economies to proverbial climate gods
🚨$36 million for @BOEM renewable energy programs that are undermining our grid by pushing things like offshore wind energy
🚨$31 million for “Tribal Climate Resilience” at the @BureauIndAffrs
🚨$131 million to a @NRCgov that has significantly restricted our ability to build and maintain reliable nuclear powerplants
🚨$3.8 billion for a Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program that pays the skyrocketing energy bills of individuals that live in states like New York, which has banned fracking, all while the Biden administration intentionally restricts the production of American energy
🚨$385 million to fund ridiculous “international biodiversity” efforts
Dems’ continuing resolution would further DEGRADE our national security:
🚨$728 billion to a @DeptofDefense more focused on climate change, “diversity training” programs, and constructing training centers with “mixed-sex restrooms, locker rooms and showers” than countering our enemies
That's worth repeating - $728 BILLION for Biden’s @DeptofDefense as they continue to FORCE servicemembers out of their jobs with tyrannical no-exception COVID-19 vaccine mandates in the midst of a recruiting crisis.
🚨$56.1 billion for a Department of State and Foreign Operations budget that they are using to allow U.S. embassies to fly “Pride” and “Black Lives Matter” flags instead of the American flag and add an unspecified (X) gender designation to passports:
Dems want to force taxpayers to fund radical anti-American and anti-biology ideologies - Republicans must BLOCK them from doing this by OPPOSING their CR
🚨$76.4 billion for @usedgov to subsidize the schools FAILING our kids and the teachers filling their minds with anti-American teachings
🚨$2 billion for the Student Aid Administration, which will be responsible for carrying out President Biden’s unfair decision to cancel at least $400 billion in student loan debt, forcing Americans who paid off their loans or did not go to college to shoulder the burden
🚨$15 million for @StateDept's @GblEqualityFund, which sends Americans' tax dollars to “lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex (LGBTQI+) persons around the world”
🚨$500,000 for the "U.S. Special Envoy to Advance the Human Rights of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Intersex Persons"
🚨$775 million for Washington, DC, which planned to expel unvaccinated students, shut down businesses like @thebigboarddc in the name of COVID tyranny, and used government resources to paint “Black Lives Matter” on their streets
Dems’ continuing resolution would funnel billions of taxpayer dollars to dozens of “diversity” offices and programs poisoning our government with radical CRT ideology:
🚨$94 million for @HHSGov's Marxist “diversity trainings"
EVERY single Republican should oppose funding this anti-American propaganda
🚨$64 million for HHS' @MinorityHealth office that allocates federal healthcare dollars based on racial and ethnic factors
🚨$1.1 million for HHS' “Office of Climate Change and Health Equity”
This office has absolutely NOTHING to do with HHS' mission and in fact THREATENS healthcare providers’ ability to provide quality care
🚨$9 million for @USAID's Office of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility and other DEI initiatives
🚨$885 million for @usedgov programs that provide funding to colleges based solely on the predominant racial or ethnic composition of their student body
🚨$100 million for “environmental justice,” which @EPA used to create the new Office of Environmental Justice and External Civil Rights that will fuse climate hysteria with elements of critical race theory.
🚨$20 million for @ENERGY's Office of Impact and Diversity, which advances “environmental, climate, and energy justice” and ridiculous initiatives like “equity in energy”
🚨$1 billion for a @smithsonian that used the @NMAAHC to actively promote anti-American Critical Race Theory
🚨$55 million for a @USMBDA that allocates taxpayer dollars based on racial and ethnic characteristics, rather than need or merit
🚨$235 million for federal apprenticeship programs that include grants to equity intermediaries to hire CRT-indoctrination consultants
🚨$1 billion to a @SBAgov that Democrats used to advance anti-American ideologies by prioritizing $28.6 billion in Restaurant Relief Funding based on racial characteristics:
🚨$1.5 billion for a @usdafsa that Democrats tried to exploit to advance critical race theory by providing $4 billion in debt relief only to non-white farmers
As if funding federal tyranny against Americans wasn’t bad enough, this CR gives BILLIONS to foreign countries
This includes $12 billion+ for Ukraine - which we have ALREADY given over $54 billion THIS YEAR alone: thehill.com/policy/defense…
🚨 But it's NOT JUST Ukraine:
🚨 $158 million for Mexico, which has allowed MILLIONS of illegal migrants to flow through its territory into the U.S. unencumbered and has utterly FAILED to stand up to dangerous cartels
🚨$471 million for Colombia, which just elected former Marxist guerilla fighter and Venezuela sympathizer @petrogustavo as its president
🚨 $98 million for Guatemala, home to major government corruption that EMPOWERS transnational criminal organizations, while their own citizenry suffers from pervasive poverty and food insecurity
🚨 $95 million for a wholly corrupt Honduras, the murder capital of Central America, where many illegal migrants entering the U.S. come from
🚨 $78 million for El Salvador, home to the dangerous gang MS-13, and one of the top contributors to the southern border crisis
This CR would ALSO send BILLIONS to globalist organizations the U.S. shouldn’t have ANYTHING to do with in the first place:
$122 million for @WHO, ON TOP of $280 million it received under Dems’ “COVID relief” bill. The WHO:
🚨Pushed an unfounded COVID narrative
🚨Partnered with Chinese Communists to cover up their role in the origins of COVID
🚨$32 million for @UNFPA, which violates the conscience of millions of Americans by supporting pro-abortion organizations internationally - going as far as publicly praising China's abusive population-control programs
🚨$15 million for the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, both of which were instrumental in developing the disastrous Paris Agreement and are the lead propagators of international climate hysteria
🚨$149 million for @theGEF, a massive globalist slush fund for “biodiversity protection, nature restoration, pollution reduction, and climate change response in developing countries”
🚨$125 million for the @WorldBank's Clean Technology Fund that sends U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund fantasy forms of energy in other nations
🚨$150 million for @UNRWA, which promotes anti-Israel rhetoric and activities:
Dems’ continuing resolution would fund EVEN MORE corrupt and wasteful uses of taxpayer dollars - here are just a few others:
🚨$9 billion in corrupt, crony earmarks, disguised as “congressionally directed spending”
🚨$150 million for @wmata, Washington, DC’s transit system, which won’t even enforce its own fare collection!
🚨$2.3 billion for the Capital Investment Grants program, which wastes billions of taxpayer dollars each year on ridiculous streetcar projects
🚨$775 million for Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) grants, which are ostensibly infrastructure grants but are awarded to recipients by the Biden administration based on woke criteria
"Merrick Garland oversees an increasingly politicized FBI that seems hell-bent on making examples of average American citizens who don't align politically with the administration"
More on this fight for transparency from Rep Roy & Sen @SteveDaines
"Given what we know about it thus far, that is what the case of the raid on Mark Houck's home appears to be. And the FBI should immediately answer for its apparent use of a 25-30 person swat team with guns drawn to target Mark Houck, a pro-life father of 7 ..."

"...for allegedly shoving a guy in front of an abortion clinic (while he maintains he was defending his 12-year-old son).
“Congress owes the American people transparent accountability for any and all wrongdoing by the FBI and Garland's DOJ."

"Today, in the face of rampant inflation and myriad government-created crises, House Democrats unilaterally rammed through a radical tax-and-spend bill that can only be described as a full-frontal assault on the liberties of the American people." 1/
"Despite the bill’s name, it will not do a single thing to address inflation— itself a direct result of out-of-control spending and monetary policy – even its supporters admit that." 2/
🚨Dems don’t want you to know their massive tax & spend bill will:
-INCREASE inflation
-Massively EXPAND the IRS
-Empower China
-Expand government-run healthcare
-Fund unreliable+destructive forms of energy
-Give crony handouts to corporations
Let’s EXPOSE this bill...
🧵THREAD
Don’t buy the bill’s name – even BERNIE SANDERS admits it won’t do a thing to address the inflation that is cutting into American paychecks
In fact, @BudgetModel found it would actually INCREASE inflation through 2024!
As fire departments respond to active wildfires, our team is in regular communication with local, county, and state emergency response contacts. Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can be of assistance.
THREAD of updates + resources:
Blanco County - Smoke Rider Fire
Multiple Fire Departments from Blanco, Hays, and Travis Counties are responding to an active wildfire that began as a large vegetation fire near FM 165 and Las Colinas Dr.
Latest estimates have the Smoke Rider Fire at 800 acres and 30% containment. Progress was made overnight on containment lines and crews continue to work the area.
Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri was an enemy of the United States, a danger to our national security and allies, and an example of evil incarnate. 1/
I commend the Biden Administration, our military, and the intelligence community for ridding the world of him and thereby making it a better place. 2/
