If an administration deliberately wished to cause havoc on the border, to ensure fuel was nearly unaffordable, to create a crime wave, to spark 1970s hyperinflation, and to rekindle racial tensions, what would it have done differently than what President Joe Biden has done?
"Let us fight with everything we’ve got,” said Vice President Kamala Harris recently. According to a Dept. of Homeland Security memo the U.S. Government is bracing for a surge in violence after the Supreme Court hands down its ruling on potential changes to the infamous Roe vs. Wade decision, which is expected to return the federalization of the abortion issue back to the 50 individual states.
The tunnel exited into the U.S. in a non-descript San Diego Warehouse District called “Amistad Park” – on a street busy with large semi-trailers by day, but quiet by night. After staking out a home used as a stash house, officials began making traffic stops and capturing boxes full of cocaine. The sophisticated tunnel featured rail & ventilation systems, as well as electricity & reinforced walls.
"Granting Texas Central Railroad the extraordinary power to seize 240 miles of private property will only devastate 1,000s of landowners, and the communities in which they live. The truth is, Texas Central is lightyears away from obtaining essential permits from the federal government – and has not proved they can pay for this boondoggle," said Congressmen Kevin Brady, Jake Ellzey & Michael McCaul.
"Texas is currently being hit 3rd hardest of any state in the nation by the baby formula shortage – with 52% of formula out of stock. This is unacceptable, and I’m calling on President Biden and his Food & Drug Administration to do whatever it takes to address this crisis – immediately and with real urgency. Texas families are struggling,” said Cruz, as 43% of formula is out of stock nationwide.
“Texas employers continue to look for skilled & trained employees as businesses expand or relocate in Texas. The Adult Education & Literacy Program is another way to upskill the current workforce and meet the growing needs of Texas' employers,” said TWC Commissioner Aaron Demerson of the initiatives, which provide free vouchers for Texans 21 years of age or older to take the GED exam.
School lockdowns in many states were arguably the most significant episode of government-sponsored child abuse in American history. "This will probably be the largest increase in educational inequity in a generation," said Thomas Kane, author of a Harvard study on the disparate impact of the COVID lockdowns. And all this time you probably thought Democrats were the party that cares.
Since the launch of "Operation Lone Star," Texas' multi-agency efforts have led to more than 246,000 migrant apprehensions, along with more than 15,000 criminal arrests — including over 12,400 felony charges.

When Congress passed – and former President Donald Trump signed into law the Tax Cuts of 2017, most sensible economists knew and predicted they would work. Cutting corporate taxes from 35%-to-21% gave Americans an incentive to invest. And, the tax cuts have overperformed... in 2022 Corporate Income Tax Revenues will be even higher than they would have been without the tax cut.
When it comes to the baby formula shortage, Joe Biden either doesn’t know or does not care. . . That you or someone you know is having difficulty feeding their baby is of no consequence for him. To the extent that he cares about it, or anything for that matter, it has to do with how it impacts him.
“Its absolutely unacceptable that the White House would try to coerce our men and women in uniform to violate their conscience and religious beliefs, let alone on an issue as polarizing as the COVID-19 vaccine," said Sen. Cruz of his effort to stop Joe Biden’s effort to punish service members who decline the COVID-19 vaccine. Accountability and transparency measures are needed, says Cruz.
"Mothers and fathers are staring at empty grocery store shelves in a panic, yet the Biden White House is happy to provide formula to illegal immigrants. Our children deserve a president who puts their needs & survival first," said Gov. Greg Abbott & National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd, after reports showed formula being delivered to U.S. holding facilities during a nationwide crisis.
In May 2019, South Texas Cong. Tony Gonzales spent 23 days – 3 of which were in a coma – at the Brooke Army Medical Center after sustaining brain trauma & kidney failure due to improper intubation. Congressman Gonzales (TX-23) spoke on the House Floor Thursday in celebration of "National Nurses Week," and recognized the BAMC nurses "who brought me back to life.”
Last June, the Biden White House unveiled its "National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism." Despite its sedate-sounding name, the "National Strategy" was anything but – it actually represented the culmination of The Left's cynical use of the Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol march as a means of ginning up large-scale, nationwide anti-Republican & anti-Trump sentiment.
As 58% of Americans now say its difficult for them to afford gas, and 52% say it is difficult to pay their grocery bills, Joe Biden's already low March "Approval" ratings have continued to decline in April – and more than 80% of "Registered U.S. Voters" believe the nation's economy is on the "wrong track." With the 2022 Mid-Term Elections fast approaching, Democrats are not in a good spot.
