"I am leading a bipartisan congressional delegation to the Philippines and Australia – some of the U.S.s’ most important allies as we work to push back on the CCP’s malign agenda."

WASHINGTON, D.C. (Texas Insider Report) — As the Chinese Communist Party ramps up its aggression in the Indo-Pacific, it is critical that the United States strengthen our relationships in the region. In an increasingly dangerous world, I will always champion peace through American strength, both at home and abroad. That’s why I am leading a bipartisan congressional delegation to the Philippines and Australia – some of the United States’ most important allies as we work to push back on the CCP’s malign agenda.
So far this week, my delegation and I have met with Philippine President Bongbong Marcos and embassy officials to emphasize the United States’ commitment to advancing military and economic ties between our nations.

For years, I’ve sounded the alarm about suspected terrorists exploiting the Biden-Harris administration’s wide-open border. The terrorist threat to our country has skyrocketed under the administration’s reckless policies.
Last week, the House Judiciary Committee released a report detailing that the administration has reportedly released at least 99 known or suspected terrorists into our communities. I could never have imagined this when I chaired the House Homeland Security Committee under the Trump administration.
To make matters worse, they have released them into our nation with no tracking mechanisms, expecting them to appear for their removal proceedings.
The White House must brief Congress on the whereabouts of these individuals and the threats our nation continues to face.

Under the Biden-Harris administration, non-profit organizations like Humanists International (HI) have been able to use federally funded programs to promote their extreme ideological agendas.
This last week, I was forced to subpoena HI because they failed to provide transparency to Congress and the American people on their promotion of atheism abroad, despite receiving hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars.
The organization has been a complicit partner to the State Department, which has repeatedly failed to produce documents regarding its role in intentionally supporting atheism. The Biden-Harris administration has distorted religious freedom in a partisan manner, and I will not let them continue to get away with it.
