New York City's mayor can regularly be heard complaining about the strain being placed on his "Sanctuary City" because of the flood of illegal aliens being shipped there by red state Governors. Now Chicago's joining the chorus – Democrat-run localities advocating for open borders who are now choking on their wish. Republican Governors are giving them a big dose of their own medicine, but will Democrats shut it all down?
"She did enormous work deepening the U.S.-Israel Alliance, which is critical to the National Security of both our countries – and the safety & security of Americans," said Sen. Ted Cruz, as he and Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD) today introduced bi-partisan, bi-cameral legislation directing the Treasury Dept. to mint a Commemorative Coin in honor of Golda Meir, Israel’s 4th Prime Minister and the first woman to lead the Jewish State.
Last week's Small Business Committee hearing explored how reckless government spending is wreaking havoc on American's Pocketbooks, and how its causing inflation. We also looked at how to help strengthen small businesses across the country – and how not every student needs to take on piles of debt to secure a promising career. We need to assure them there are other additional ways.
House Republicans passed a plan to fix the national debt crisis last week, saving nearly $5 trillion over the next ten years — while ending government programs being used against our own citizens, protecting Medicare & Social Security, and restoring American energy dominance. Now its up to President Biden to make the right choice for Americans and come to the table to negotiate.
This bill includes significant spending cuts that align with our commitment to fiscal responsibility and is vital in preventing a debt crisis and maintaining our nation's economic stability. . . President Biden has repeatedly called for a clean increase in the debt ceiling without any conditions. We cannot allow him to continue recklessly spending American tax dollars. Congress must address the growing federal deficit by implementing responsible spending reductions.
That's it – they've finally blown it. How could Fox do this to Tucker and their viewers? Their dominance is over. Let's face it: There have been quite a few moments over the past decade when we've all been told that Fox News had blown it, that Fox had finally angered their viewers for the last time... that Fox News was history, and yet, somehow, Fox News continues to dominate cable news.
Joe Biden's made so many false statements, that even the Washington Post's given him multiple “Bottomless Pinocchios” – which is no easy feat, as "The bar for the Bottomless Pinocchio is high" to receive the dubious award. Yet ABC is now claiming the right to censor Mr. Biden's presidential opponents – to protect "the public" from "disinformation." While its not clear where ABC will be drawing that line, its wrong for both the country, and for journalism.
"Today marks one month since I directed the Texas Dept. of Public Safety to provide assistance to the Austin Police Department to help reduce crime & improve safety in the city – and I commend the Texas DPS's world-class Special Agents who seized 500,000+ lethal doses of fentanyl – enough to kill over half of all Texans living in Austin due to President Biden's border crisis," said Gov. Abbott.
When they're elected to be our Texas Representatives in Austin, legislators are charged with protecting the weakest & most vulnerable among us – and legalized gambling is proven statistically to harm the Poor & Young Adults the most. Make no mistake, the gambling industry is funded by those who can least afford to lose their money, and who are most likely to become addicted.
“The City of Amarillo should never have gone behind their voters back's to finance a project that they'd overwhelmingly voted down. It’s an appalling – an Elected City Council & Mayor thwarting the will of the voters!” said Sen. Paul Bettencourt, as his bill protecting the will of the voters by prohibiting a taxing entity from issuing public debt to finance a voter rejected project within five years of rejection moved out of the Senate.
According to the reports, upstream (exploration and production) jobs increased over the year by 20,000—or 11.2%. Since an industry low point because of COVID in September 2020, upstream employment has grown by a factor of 26 to 4 and has had an average growth of 1,390 jobs per month. Texas oil and gas companies pay some of the highest job wages in the state with an average salary of about $115,000.
Here at the Texas Veterans Land Board (VLB), we constantly strive to not only uplift the service of our Veterans and Military Members, but also recognize the sacrifices of the families of our nation’s heroes. In honor of the bravery and strength of military families, the VLB observes April as the Month of the Military Child and April 5th as Gold Star Spouses Day.
The voting machine company Dominion had alleged some of Fox's hosts had either promulgated, or allowed their guests to push, a false narrative that the corporation's voting machines were "fixed" and misreported the vote count in some precincts of the 2020 presidential election.
"Texas is attractive to CEOs and their businesses because we offer the freedom and opportunity that cannot be found elsewhere," said Governor Greg Abbott earlier today, celebrating Texas being named the "Best State for Business" by the nation's leading CEOs for a record-shattering 19th year in a row in the annual survey conducted by Chief Executive Magazine.
Let's talk about this just-yesterday uncovered "collusion" between a supposedly "Free Press" and Joe Biden. It happened in the light-of-day – during a White House Press Conference in the Rose Garden, no less – and is a fraud on the American people that's designed to give them the false impression Mr. Biden can withstand legitimate media questions without first having knowledge of precisely what questions will be asked.
Since August 2021, I've pushed President Biden and State Dept. Secretary Antony Blinken for the release of the "Afghanistan After-Action Review," which provides insight into the failed withdrawal that led to the deaths of 13 American service men & women and left 100s of Americans behind under Taliban rule. The American people and our Gold Star Families deserve accountability.
Though Tucker may have been tossed off his perch at Fox (or jumped – we will eventually get the details on how this all went down), he will land on his feet and crush the libs beneath his preppy Topsiders. The answer to the question “What will Tucker do now” is the same answer as the answer to the question about what the 800-pound gorilla will do: “Anything he wants.”
“Professors didn't believe we'd push back – but they were wrong. The Texas Senate's now passed the strongest pushback on woke policies in higher education nationwide. Students should be taught how to think critically, not what to think,” said Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, after the Senate passed a series of bills designed to reverse inroads teaching & indoctrinating students at the state's Colleges & Universities.
