🚨 CONGRESS IS WORKING OVERTIME 🚨

You might have thought we’d be working to secure our Southern border, find a solution to America’s mounting debt, or hold Joe Biden and his admin. accountable.

NOPE!

Today, I voting NO on the entire $96 BILLION America Last Foreign War spending bill package!

Here’s the list of amendments we SHOULD have passed on the package sending $61 BILLION of your money to Ukraine. 💸 First, I introduced an amendment to reduce the amount of money we send Ukraine to ZERO!

We should be demanding peace, not funding the military industrial complex’s blood money wars fueled by dead bodies in Ukraine.

Read my letter to my Republican colleagues explaining my decision to file a motion to vacate Speaker Johnson (🧵)

Dear Colleague,

Before we left for Easter break, I filed a motion to vacate Speaker Mike Johnson after he passed the second minibus, H.Res.1102, which funded the Department of Defense; Financial Services and General Government; the Department of Homeland Security; the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education; the Legislative Branch; and the Department of State and Foreign Operations.

This minibus, or rather, Part 2 of a two-part appropriations omnibus, broke our conference rules and the promises we made to our voters. We elected Mike Johnson in late October after three-and-a-half difficult weeks trying to decide on a new Speaker of the House. Mike Johnson sent us all a letter
making his promises to us as to what type of Speaker he would be and outlining his plans going forward. Specifically, he put forth seven tenets that would guide our conference under his speakership, which are quoted below:

1. Restore trust by ensuring total transparency, open processes, and regular order.

2. Advance a comprehensive policy agenda supported by Conference consensus.

3. Promote individual Members, and thus the whole team, by working to understand and emphasize each Member’s unique strengths, district dynamics and challenges, and individual goals and objectives.

4. Engage Members in productive working groups to formulate solutions in key policy areas and enhance our internal communications and team building.

5. Effectively message to persuasively inform the Republican base and the American people of our policy agenda, why we are pursuing it, and how it will ensure liberty, opportunity, and security for all Americans.

6. Build and utilize external coalitions in the conservative ecosphere, including think tanks, policy groups, and other allied organizations that can contribute to our efforts.

7. Develop and grow our majority by building upon our resources and expanding the base to successfully advance our conservative vision and agenda.

(1/5) Mike Johnson has unfortunately not lived up to a single one of his self-imposed tenets. Allowing us one day, rather than 72 hours, to review a 1000-plus page bill to which no amendments could be offered was not “ensuring total transparency, open processes, and regular order.” Relying on majority Democrat support to pass a two-part omnibus was not “advancing a policy agenda supported by Conference consensus.” Working behind closed doors with Democrats to produce appropriations texts, NDAA text, and other legislative items was not “working to understand and emphasize each Member’s unique strengths,” and it certainly was not “engaging Members” to work together on consensus legislation. Expelling George Santos, who has not been convicted of any crime, and watching Members retire left and right was not "developing and growing our majority." Fully funding abortion, the trans agenda, the climate agenda, foreign wars, and Biden's border crisis is not "ensuring liberty, opportunity, and security for all Americans."

Soon after he was elected Speaker, Mike passed a CR to prevent a government shutdown (November 14, 2023) which was understandable after being thrown into the Speakership and trying to get his feet under him and hire up new staff. Then we all tried to move forward to heal our fractured and severely damaged conference. Up until Kevin McCarthy was ousted, our GOP conference had passed seven appropriations bills, which were some of the strongest conservative bills passed in decades. Instead of picking up where we left off, with only five more appropriations bills to pass, Mike Johnson did not continue this important process. He instead led us to another CR on January 18, 2024, and got it passed with the support of 207 Democrats and only 107 Republicans, compared to 106 Republicans who voted against it. This time, Mike Johnson passed what he called a “laddered” CR, establishing two government shutdown dates, making government funding even more convoluted.

After this was passed, once again, instead of moving the remaining five appropriations bills to the floor, Speaker Johnson made no effort to finish our appropriations process, even though this is our constitutional duty. Months later, Mike Johnson passed a third CR, this time calling it a "process CR," as if that made continuing Nancy Pelosi's budget yet again any different from the previous CRs. Concurrently, the Senate was not passing their appropriations bills, giving us the upper hand in terms of both messaging and legislative leverage. Then, with little to no communication with our conference, Mike passed the first minibus on March 6, and passed the second minibus two weeks later, on March 22.

This was really a two-part omnibus, split into two minibuses, crammed down our throats, passed under suspension of the rules, breaking the 72-hour rule, giving us one day to read over a thousand pages, and tying our hands behind our backs by not allowing us to make any amendments. Rules? What rules? Remember the precious rules? Apparently, they no longer matter to Mike Johnson, even though he promised to abide by them and enforce them. Speaker Johnson's omnibus did nothing to stop Biden's deadly border invasion—it fully funded it. It did nothing to stop the energy-killing Green New Deal climate agenda—it fully funded it. It did nothing to stop the weaponized DOJ and FBI—it fully funded it. It did nothing to stop the trans agenda on kids—it fully funded it. It did nothing to stop abortion—it fully funded FULL-TERM abortion clinics, and so much more. Here are some of the things funded by Mike’s omnibus:

• $280,000 for Climate Change Abatement Research (p. 174, DOE Joint Explanatory
Statement [JES])

• $2.5 million for Energy Resilience for Disadvantaged Communities (p. 251, THUD JES)

(2/5)

🚨 Mike Johnson fully funded the weaponized Department of Justice at the same level Nancy Pelosi did as Joe Biden is trying to put President Trump in jail for the rest of his life!

🧵 IMPORTANT THREAD Biden’s weaponized DOJ isn’t just coming after President Trump, look at what they are doing to peaceful J6 defendants.

Just yesterday, the weaponized DOJ convicted a MAGA grandma who walked in open doors, spoke to a Capitol Police officer, and walked out.

She remained completely nonviolent.

Every day, the weaponized DOJ arrests a new person who protested the 2020 election. Mike Johnson is FULLY funding this. He didn’t even put up a fight.

The aftermath of January 6, 2021. Oops, my bad.. that was actually from the 2020 BLM riots.

So was the looting of this Target 👇

List of feckless Republicans that voted WITH Democrats to table my censure resolution against Rashida Tlaib.

This is why Republicans NEVER do anything to stop the communists Democrats or ever hold anyone accountable!!

PATHETIC.

News you hardly know bc the mainstream news is obsessed with war in foreign countries:

🚨Oversight Committee released a $200,000 check written to Joe Biden from his brother James Biden from Americore - money laundering. And we have more coming in the impeachment inquiry.

1/5 🚨Record high border encounters at 269,735 migrants last month, 2.48 million for FY 2023, 169 terrorists arrested at our border this year (higher than past 6 years combined), and over 1.5 million gotaways are free in the US.

Democrats love open borders - America LAST!

2/5

I’m supporting Jim Jordan for Speaker. I’m not supporting Scalise. I like Steve Scalise, and as I said, I want him to beat cancer, and he should be focused on that.

What I do think is an unfair and quite frankly disgusting attack is members of our conference using..

🧵 THREAD ..Democrat talking points, using the same lines of attack that Democrats use against every single Republican, every single election, every single day, in these halls of Congress to attack Steve.

He isn’t a White Supremacist. We all know that. He’s a good man.

2/5

I remember last congress when 11 Republicans voted with the Democrats to kick me off committees.

I didn’t care about the democrat votes but the 11 republican votes stung.

Now my friend Matt Gaetz says he is going to make a motion to vacate our Speaker Kevin McCarthy.

🧵 1/20 And I saw in the news that other Republicans are now talking about expelling Matt Gaetz.

Here is how I see all of this.

As members of congress, we are each elected (hired) by the people of our districts to represent them and responsibly govern for the American people.

🚨🚨🚨 IMPORTANT THREAD ON THIS WEEK IN CONGRESS 🚨🚨🚨

For weeks, I’ve been asking for Ukraine funding to be a standalone vote, not cash hidden inside of other bills. For a moment, it seemed like that would happen. But it didn’t. Instead of stripping $300 million of funding to Ukraine from the DOD approps bill like House leadership promised, the Rules committee passed a package that combines multiple approps bills into a single rule.

Not only will Congress be forced to vote on a rule that includes..

I’m appalled at this factually wrong and completely out of touch letter written by Freedom Caucus member @RepKenBuck about the treatment of J6 defendants.

First off, Mr. Buck passed the buck on voting to object on Jan 6, 2021 and certified Joe Biden’s election so we know..

🧵1/8






he does not support President Trump.

Ken Buck has also been vocally against impeachment inquiry on Joe Biden, shockingly completely unwilling to even ask the question in spite of the overwhelming evidence proving Joe Biden abused his power..

The White House is attacking me for demanding an impeachment inquiry before I’ll vote to fund one penny to our over bloated $32 TRILLION dollar in debt failing government.

🧵 THREAD We have the evidence they have desperately been trying to hide to just ask the question. Should we inquire? Should we just take a look? Dare we investigate further?

The answer is YES but the White House is outraged at my audacity to demand it.

This conviction of 5 pro-life activists under 18 USC 241, Conspiracy against rights, is a continuation of a dangerous trend set by communist prosecutors.

THREAD 🧵 This is the same law that the DOJ used to convict Douglass Mackey for posting memes, and the same law that Jack Smith used to indict President Trump for “depriving people of their right to vote.”

2/4

Today’s move by Merrick Garland to appoint David Weiss as Special Counsel to investigate (and in reality cover up) Hunter Biden’s criminal career is the latest action in a continuous pattern of corrupt behavior by Joe Biden and his regime.

THREAD 🧵 Behavior typically only seen in juntas in third-world nations or early twentieth-century dictatorships in Europe.

This is a cover-up, plain and simple.

Today, America finds itself in a troubling situation, resembling authoritarian regimes rather than the beacon of freedom and democracy our founders valiantly fought to establish.

🧵 THREAD Innocent individuals, including former President Donald J. Trump, are being unjustly targeted by a Department of Injustice and an FBI transformed into political hitmen, acting at the behest of the sitting president.

In a letter attacking me, Hunter Biden’s attorneys CONFIRM the images displayed were of him and a prostitute.

Hunter’s own attorneys have confirmed the proof of his violation of the MANN act by sex trafficking a victim across state lines.

🧵 THREAD First, Hunter’s attorneys denied the Hunter Biden laptop was even Hunter’s.

Now, they’re confirming the images on that very laptop are in fact of him.

One of my all time favorite stories is when @RepThomasMassie was the only Member of Congress that stood against the entire weight of Washington to try to stop the CARES ACT from passing and was the lone voice trying to remind everyone the Constitution still stands.

2. In March 2020 as COVID spread, during a time of mass confusion, misinformation, rational fear for some yet irrational fear for most, Massie courageously went to Washington and demanded a vote on a historic bill.

It was the right thing to do and everyone attacked him for it.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

I agree with my conservative friends in the Freedom Caucus on some of the flaws in the Fiscal Responsibility Act and I’ve never wanted to raise the debt ceiling on debt that I never voted to create,..

🧵1/19 ..but I came to Washington to make changes and this bill actually provides a tool (an idea from @RepThomasMassie) that gives us a chance to make those fiscal changes.

The days of staying in office until near death need to end.

Our country is on the verge of collapse because of these elderly office holder's failed political careers.

🧵 THREAD Shame on any elected official, and their family and staff, who cling to power while mentally and physically deteriorating.

Our country and our future is at stake and these politicians won't live to see our downfall that they helped create.

Joe Biden publicly denied any involvement in Hunter Biden’s appointment to Burisma, yet he personally signed off on the official statement used in response to questions about whether Hunter's position undermined the VP's credibility in pushing anti-corruption measures in.. ..Ukraine, according to new internal documents released by @America1stLegal.
