U.S. Rep. Chip Roy of Texas has been a stalwart and outspoken figure in the fight to defend conservative principles on Capitol Hill, something that cannot be said of some of his party’s members in the upper chamber.
As Townhall reported on Tuesday, Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky said in a press conference that the “number one priority” for the United States was providing more aid to Ukraine amid its onslaught by Russian troops. McConnell also said he was “proud” to work with Democrats on the $1.7 trillion omnibus bill that will mean the new GOP majority in the House has little leverage over Biden and his party until next fall.
In a lengthy Twitter thread posted Wednesday morning, Rep. Roy did not hold back on those Republicans in the Senate who are playing nice with Democrats and President Biden in order to screw over House Republicans set to take majority control of the lower chamber on January 3.
“21 Senators voted to proceed to the $1.7 trillion omnibus – & to spend billions we do not have, empower Biden bureaucrats with no fixes, & block us from securing the border for at least 9 mos,” Roy tweeted. “Some are friends, one my former boss.. but unless they change their vote on final passage, I don’t care & will oppose their bills/priorities – & not for revenge, but b/c it’s the only tool I have to pressure them to stop doing this to us,” he said.
“This vote is indefensible, & damaging to Texas. It takes away our leverage to force Biden to secure the border & in fact specifically says new DHS money can only be used to process MORE people – which will lead to more fentanyl, violence, & death,” Roy noted of the funding restrictions in the 4,155-page bill that gives billions to foreign nations for border security but disallows the use of some funds to secure the U.S. border.
The real reason why the swamp gop is working with the democrats is to save their own asses. Many are just as dirty as their opposition and have profited immensely by their congressional position. They never have supported or endorsed Donald Trump because they will eventually be exposed if he becomes President again. All these career politicians must be ousted and replaced with a congress that will work for the people, not for themselves, and that will never be done until the elections and vote counting is made fair and legitimate. A “landslide of all landslides” election is the only way the people’s voice will heard with all this cheatable early voting and mail in ballots that we think is so great. By the way, the mail in voting just happened to be implemented to coincide with the covid lockdowns. How convenient was that? If we don’t get new people in congress nothing is going to change.
Keep Cheering MCLAIN
I can explain that with one word “MONEY”
Audit ALL Congress and anyone that had anything to do with election fraud / covid
