👀 Emulate #China by banning #TikTok?: "Republicans have come up with a national strategy to permanently lose elections for a generation: Ban a social media app called TikTok that 94 million, primarily young Americans, use." @SenRandPaul #ampFW ampfw.org/3G3dhCZ 👀 "This GOP strategy comes while polls indicate that 71% of young women and 53% of young men voted for a Democrat for Congress. Many Dems have joined in calling for this ban but like most such issues, the blame will stick to Republicans more." #ampFW ampfw.org/3lXGUhV

"Our administrators, teachers' unions, have ignored what they're there for, and that's to educate our children. They've gotten really political; they've had their ideologies that they want to push onto our kids—parents are tired of this." @LauraZorc #ampFW ampfw.org/3KiSuxK 👀 Public schools in Florida spend nearly TRIPLE the amount of their private counterparts, around $21,000 a year compared to $8,000. Attribute the disparity to poor financial management on the part of the public institutions. @LauraZorc #ampFW @Newsweek ampfw.org/3TXjWEf

💯 NEW: Restoring American energy production requires permitting reform and more - We can start by passing Lower Energy Costs Act #ampFW via @ybarracesar91 @HouseGOP @WashTimesOpEd @WashTimes ampfw.org/3ZrXNiH 🚨 The permitting process has hamstrung American energy projects for the past two years. One of Biden’s first actions was to kill the Keystone pipeline.

In doing so, he increased the price of energy and weakened U.S. energy production. #ampFW @WashTimes ampfw.org/3Kfaqcw

☠️ Dem Attacks on Musk Prove Their Support for Free Speech Is Dead: "Elon’s commitment to core American values is quickly turning into a nightmare for Democrats." #TwitterFiles #ampFW ampfw.org/3G1lnwc 💯 "Free speech is messy, and a public exchange of opinions is often upsetting. But that is OK. Groupthink needs to be challenged. It’s a core tenant of reason." #Facts #TwitterFiles #ampFW ampfw.org/3PCt8vw

👀 Economic Growth Is All About Falling Prices: "The basis of the nailbiting within the economics profession has to do with their wholly confused belief that consumption powers economic growth." @johntamny #ampFW ampfw.org/3PB8sEr "Real economic growth is born of savings, investment (the latter relentlessly pushes down prices).

Economists and pundits have it backwards.

Fed officials literally aim for a 2% annual rise in prices as a way of keeping buyers buying." @johntamny #ampFW ampfw.org/3V9MhpO

⚠️ Even Republicans are all in on Washington's end-of-year spending spree #GOP #ampFW ampfw.org/3FVSNwa ⚠️ The first decision by @HouseGOP when they learned they had won a slim majority of 222 to 213 was to bring back earmarks. These are bridges to nowhere, peanut subsidies, and sports arenas for local professional teams paid for by federal taxpayers. #ampFW ampfw.org/3PyxPqg

The @WhiteHouse has brought CBDC & digital asset talks back to the forefront of the news cycle.

💰With that being said, here is a must-read #ampFW piece that @kilianlaverty released in @thehill back in March, on the dangers of a CBDC! thehill.com/blogs/congress… "The widespread use of digital assets would allow consumers to transfer money near-instantaneously rather than rely on a series of intermediaries to conduct a single transaction." -@kilianlaverty via @thehill #ampFW ampfw.org/3LlQZOf

Forget Stefanik — Donalds represents a fresh start for conference chair @RepDonaldsPress #ampFW ampfw.org/3Due3bx ⚠️ Most Republicans find a way to abandon their principles when it comes to getting the spending in check.

⚠️ Stefanik, may claim to be a leader on cutting spending, but Stefanik has voted to spend trillions of taxpayers’ hard-earned dollars. #ampFW ampfw.org/3xtpa0t

🧵Today, SCOTUS issued its decision in Biden v. TX. The issue was whether the Biden Admin legally canceled the Trump Admin’s Migrant Protection Protocols (remain in Mexico).

WOKE DIPLOMACY ALERT: We took a look at Congress’ proposed 2023 budget for the (deep) State Dept.

Here are some of the terrible items included in the bill: #ampFW Image $250M to prevent and respond to gender-based violence around the world.

Biden can’t even keep America’s communities safe, what makes these bureaucrats think that they can prevent, let alone respond, to gender-based violence. #ampFW Image

Government Spending Thread: The House will soon be considering govt spending bills for FY 2023.

These offices and programs are overfunded, redundant in nature, or outside of the scope of the federal govt.

Here is a breakdown of all the spending for the Dep of Agriculture #ampFW $69.8MM for the Ag Secretary’s office; $8.4M for Ag Secretary’s immediate office; $1.3 million for the Agriculture Homeland Security Office?

Why can’t @DHSgov do it? $11.2M for the Office of Partnerships and Public Engagement? #ampFW

🧵Today, SCOTUS issued its decision in WV v. EPA, a major admin law case that considered EPA’s authority under the Clean Air Act.

In a 6-3 vote, the Court held that under the Major Questions Doctrine, the Obama Admin’s Clean Power Plan was illegal. #ampFW ampfw.org/3ytcyHJ #ampFW: In 2015, the Obama Admin EPA issued the Clean Power Plan.

Under it, the EPA determined the best system to reduce carbon emissions was generation shifting-effectively replacing coal-fired power plants with plants fueled by natural gas & replacing all fossil fuel-based..

👏 A Bill to Prohibit a COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate for our Armed Forces H.R. 3860!

Introduced by @RepThomasMassie (R-Ky.), this legislation protects the freedom of our service members to make their own medical decisions without fear of repercussions. #ampFW ampfw.org/3OyDmvR The decision of whether or not to take the vaccine belongs to the individual!

These mandates fail to consider natural immunity from prior infection!

Vaccine mandates are an exercise of government power that is antithetical to logic AND liberty. #ampFW ampfw.org/3OyDmvR
