The emails and documents show close collaboration b/w DHS & private sector. Twitter's Vijaya Gadde (fired by @elonmusk last week) met monthly with DHS to discuss censorship plans. Microsoft exec texted DHS: "Platforms have got to get comfortable with gov't"

This is dangerous and unAmerican. When we take back the House, Republicans have a duty to hold woke corporations accountable!

The club had payroll and bills to pay and had to scramble to find funds to meet its obligations in those two weeks. I’ll find out which bank it was. Cc: @Jim_Jordan @RepJimBanks

Last week my colleagues and I asked President Biden for a meeting to share the stories of families impacted by the deadly fentanyl crisis. We have not received a response. Apparently, he has other priorities for his time:

We don’t let kids get tattoos before they are 18, but @JoeBiden doesn’t think states should be able to ban kids from getting their genitals chopped off. The fact that this position is Democrat orthodoxy now is complete insanity.

Now 20 days into October, and still no September border numbers released by the federal government.

We are now 18 days into October & the federal government still has not released border numbers for the month of September, the final month of fiscal year 2022. Sept. numbers are expected to finish FY’22 w/ 2.3 million + migrant encounters, not including 599,000 known gotaways.

This is a political persecution. The Biden DoJ is a corrupt, two-tiered system of justice.

President Trump wanted to refill our Strategic Petroleum Reserve when oil was $24/barrel, but Democrats blocked him. Now, taxpayers will be forced to refill it at nearly TRIPLE the cost.

A Republican-led House will put the needs of America first. We cannot continue with unlimited spending for any foreign nation while our people are struggling to get by here at home. is 100% right.

Heard some on MSNBC becoming positively apoplectic about Kevin McCarthy's remark that if GOP takes House, it will not write 'blank check' for Ukraine. Meaning: US aid is not unlimited. Not sure why that is controversial.

My colleagues and I have requested a meeting with President Biden to share the dozens of obituaries we were given by grieving parents from across the country at our fentanyl roundtable last month. This crisis is too deadly to ignore.
