While over 70% of "Likely U.S. Voters" say the nation is headed in the “Wrong Direction” and "Economic Confidence" declined significantly between September and October, the strongest indication of Republican's growing momentum with just 20 days to go is their 7% lead to recapture Congress – up 3% from last week. Republican's expanding lead is due mainly to a 16% advantage among Independent Voters, says Rasmussen Reports.

Since the launch of Operation Lone Star, the multi-agency effort has led to 314,000 migrant apprehensions and more than 20,800 criminal arrests, with more than 18,400 felony charges reported. In the fight against fentanyl, DPS has seized over 337 million lethal doses of fentanyl during this border mission.

“I was proud to recommend these candidates along with Senator Cornyn, and happy to see President Biden has nominated them to serve. All four came through our bi-partisan Federal Judicial Evaluation Committee designed to find nominees with legal excellence and demonstrated integrity," said Sen. Cruz.

“This is just another example of how by all working together, we're taking our districts to new heights while helping our local heroes at Customs & Border Patrol hire more officers,” said South Texas Congresswoman Mayra Flores, introducing her bill to streamline the hiring of new and badly-needed U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP) Agents.

In under two years, President Biden has created crisis after crisis. In a Republican majority, we'll bring forward solutions that secures the border, curbs wasteful spending, supports Main Street America, and puts America’s best interests first. Our plan creates a new future, and restores a government "For the People, By the People."

 Vance went right for the political jugular with a brutal statistical smackdown of Ryan on the economy, which remains by far the most salient of this election for voters in Ohio, and indeed nationwide.

Yes... It is Still the Economy, Stupid! And, with November’s crucial Mid-Term Elections only 21 days away as of next Tuesday, Republicans now hold a 7% lead in their bid to recapture control of Congress. As issues come into focus and voters continue to make up their minds about specific candidates and races, the GOP's lead jumped 3% from last week's Rasmussen Reports Poll.

In order to conduct Congressional Oversight, the Senators demanded any and all communications between Att. Gen. Merrick Garland (or any other DOJ employee) and the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Medical Association, the Children’s Hospital Association or any of their representatives about minors receiving experimental "gender reassignment" procedures.

The "Green New Deal" agenda is an extreme “Made-in-America” tax that gives unprecedented power to unelected bureaucrats, and its far worse than the problem of reducing emissions or stewarding our environment.

According to the National Telecommunications and Information Administration’s (NTIA) recent internet use survey, about 24 million households do not use the internet at home. Of those who do not have internet at home, 58% say that they have no interest or need. This number has barely moved since 2017.

In a shrewd move, DeSantis flew 50 illegal aliens to the liberal enclave of Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts to bring the border crisis home to many of its patrons. He and other governors must continue to fly illegal aliens to wealthy enclaves until these "Sanctuary City," anti-border elites have the opportunity to finally understand the seriousness of the problem and see the light.

“Health care costs rose nearly 30% in the last year, the largest increase on record. Rent prices saw their largest hike ever as well.

Kevin Brady, after inflation rose higher than expected to a new 40-year high.

​​​​​​​"Opioids like fentanyl have claimed the lives of family members, friends, and neighbors at alarming rates all across the country – and opioid overdose is now the leading cause of death for Americans aged 18 to 45," said Congressmen Tony Gonzales, Chris Pappas, and Ted Budd in a bipartisan letter to House leadership calling for votes to be held on two important bills addressing the nation's escalating Fentanyl Crisis.

“The chaos at our Southern Border is bringing violence to our communities, and costing Texans hundreds of millions of dollars. President Obama’s refusal to enforce immigration law was a dereliction of duty, just as President Biden’s refusal to secure our border is,” said Texas Att. Gen. Ken Paxton, after the 5th Dist. Court of Appeals ruled Mr. Biden lacks the legal authority to continue the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) Program.

“Residents of Brownsville should be outraged and demand accountability... The report clearly delineates willful incompetence, preferential vendor selection, questionable practices, and a complete lack of regard for taxpayers & city residents who were left to foot the bill. I call on the Brownsville City Council to investigate this matter and hold those responsible for this boondoggle accountable."

The midterm elections are less than a month away – and polls are everywhere! The question is: Do polls still have the same old problems? We know how seriously wrong they've been in the past, but ​​​serious people are trying to understand how what's happened before might predict mistakes this year. And, right now it appears things could be somewhat better for Republicans than the polls say.

In yet another sign that inflation is continuing to spread throughout the economy – with 60% of last month's increase due to rising food costs – the government announced earlier today that Wholesale Prices rose at a higher than expected rate in September, and exceeded August's increase. And on Friday, the nation's final key indicator for inflation prior to the election will be released.

"Main Street businesses continue to struggle with higher prices – and there's no end in sight. They will either cut jobs or pass their increasing costs on to consumers who are already struggling to pay their bills in this cruel economy," said Texas Cong. Kevin Brady after it was announced that September's "Producer Price Index" rose a higher than expected 8.5% from the previous year.
