With $30 trillion of debt -- which has grown by $5 trillion in just the last two years, with another $2 trillion of red ink expected to get spilled this year -- you might have expected Congress at least to pretend it will temper its reckless spending proclivities.
While urging Congress to do more to hold Russia accountable for its unjustified invasion of Ukraine, Republican Leader of the Ways and Means Committee Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX) opened debate on the House Floor supporting the ban on Russian energy imports.

Texas has added a total of 687,500 positions since January 2021. The seasonally adjusted Texas unemployment rate for January 2022 was 4.8 percent, unchanged from a revised rate of 4.8 percent from December 2021.
We always assumed they were as strong militarily as we were, but mostly because of parades and their size. Everyone has seen the footage of battalions marching through Red Square, huge intercontinental ballistic missiles rolling along with them in a sea of soldiers and tanks.
The Governor was joined by top officials from state agencies, law enforcement, and military, as well as local stakeholders for a discussion on the ways Texas is taking action to secure the border and keep Texans safe.

The bottom 20 percent had their average tax rate fall from 1.2 percent of income to barely above 0 percent.
It turns out that we live in a nationalist world. That's one of the lessons people are learning from the surprise early results of the Russo-Ukrainian war.
“We should not limit our options when holding Vladimir Putin and any nation that joins his attack on Ukraine accountable. This bill is much stronger than the one House Democrats brought to the floor, and is the product of bipartisan & bicameral negotiations. It’s unfortunate President Biden pushed to water it down, and disappointing House Democrats obliged," said one of Brady's fellow congressmen about his effort to suspend normal trade relations with Russia.
Coach Kennedy was fired by the school district for praying alone on a school football field in front of students.
“I’m very glad to hear of the release of Gustavo Cardenas & Jorge Alberto Fernández. They were unjustly held captive by the Venezuelan government and have endured a nightmarish journey. The regime there must immediately release the remaining, unjustly detained Americans — including the rest of the CITGO 6."
On the eve of the Russian invasion, Joe Biden actually begged Vladimir Putin to pump more oil and boost the enemy nation's exports to help reduce gas prices and inflation in the United States – which is his biggest problem in November. How did Putin view that surreal request? Did it greenlight his invasion? And, isn't it interesting how Mr. Biden's indirectly acknowledging that a boost in U.S. production would lower inflation and prices at the pump too?
Vladimir Putin thought his war in Ukraine would be quick. He also believed the Unites States of America and its current Democrat-Socialist "leaders" were decadent, foolish, and would not resist. He may be right. We're fighting over pronouns, how many genders there are, we're praising Marxist theories called "Critical" Race Theory and applauding those who protest our National Anthem. Its simply insane.
The Young Conservatives of Texas at the Univ. of North Texas recently wanted to hold an event entitled “Criminalize Child Transitions.” They drew a crowd of protesters, outsiders, whose tactics are certainly consistent with the violent group known as Antifa.

Doctors, medical providers, and other related medical staff who report “sex change” procedures and the administration of puberty blockers to minors as “child abuse” may violate federal law—even though state law says that such procedures can, in fact, constitute “child abuse.”
