How the Grinch stole America:
Conservative figures and politicians attacked the 18 Senate Republicans who voted in favor of the massive $1.7 trillion omnibus bill on Thursday.
Thank you to everyone who came out to volunteer this year for the U.S. Marines Corps Toys for Tots program!
It was great to gather with many old and new friends to help provide gifts to families who need a little extra help this year.
I joined Newsmax to discuss this week's Oversight Committee hearing where a Democrat witness said that parents have no right to know if their kids are going through s*x changes and that she's never heard of someone regretting s*x change surgery.

‘Deflecting The Question’: GOP Rep Presses Witness On Whether Parents Should Know About Kids’ Gender Transitions
Rep. Michael Cloud of Texas pressed a witness during a hearing over whether parents have a right to be informed of children undergoing gender transitions.
God's peace and comfort for Raul and his family.
This is another reminder that open borders have never been compassionate. They have real costs.
The Biden administration has turned our border into a warzone. We must secure our border and save lives in the process.
In today's House Oversight Committee hearing, a far-left Democrat witness said that parents have no right to know if their kids are going through s*x changes.
She also stated that the "age of consent" for her non-profit's "mental health therapy" is 12.

No American should be forced by our government to pay for someone else’s abortion.
Today I introduced a bicameral resolution to rescind a Veterans Affairs rule that provides abortion services through the taxpayer-funded VA healthcare system.
My resolution would rescind the VA's rule, and ensure that the Biden administration is not using taxpayer funds to enforce its radical anti-life agenda.
Rep Cloud on Texas' Commitment to Secure the Border
Rep. Michael Cloud warns labor union against taking ICE members’ money
Rep. Michael Cloud demanded cooperation from a leading federal labor union Friday on an investigation of its decision to stop representing law enforcement officers at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Today, Texas Republicans unveiled our border security agenda for the 118th Congress, titled “A Commitment to Secure the Border, a Framework by Texans, for Texas.”
The Biden administration’s open border policies have proven to be a total disaster for our country.
Texas Republicans are committed to using the leverage we have to work towards securing this nation and cracking down on the violent criminals who continue to make record profits off drug and human trafficking operations.
In the middle of a military recruitment crisis, Democrats' COVID-19 military vaccine mandate forced the discharge of:
— 1,841 Army soldiers
— 2,032 Navy sailors
— 3,717 Marines
End the mandate and rehire these national heroes!
Congress and the White House are mulling proposals from top lawmakers to repeal the U.S. military's vaccine mandate as the threat from COVID-19 appears to fade.
Democrats’ “Defund the Police” movement demonized law enforcement and has led to 114 ambush-style attacks on officers in 2022 alone.
Pray for our police!

We look forward to speaking with you!
During the busiest time of the year, the Biden admin has pulled highly skilled Air Marshals from planes and placed them at the southern border.
Some of their tasks include "heating up sandwiches" and "babysitting" adult illegal migrants.
Ridiculous.
EXCLUSIVE — U.S. air marshals are planning to stage an open rebellion against the Biden administration over a plan that would strip 99% of commercial flights from federal protection as people take to the skies during the busiest time of the year for air travel.
Even Democrats are starting to speak out against Biden's broken border.
This administration has enabled massive amounts of drug smuggling, human trafficking, and record profits for criminal cartels who actively work to undermine this nation.
There must be accountability.
Our brave Border Patrol agents already face:
— Record high illegal immigrant encounters
— Record high migrant deaths
— Record high terrorist encounters
— Record high "gotaways"
Repealing Title 42 is insanity.
EXCLUSIVE — Thousands of U.S. Border Patrol agents are bracing for a monumental migration event at the southern border with Mexico that is expected to take place when pandemic policy Title 42 ends just days before Christmas, according to six employees who spoke with the Washington Examiner.
God bless the pro-freedom protesters fighting back against China's tyrannical regime.
There are many things to be thankful for as Americans – faith, family, and freedom most of all.
May we never take for granted the brave service members overseas and away from their families who continually sacrifice of themselves to ensure we maintain these blessings.
From my family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving!
“As a senior member of the House Oversight Committee, a key focus of mine will be to work with both sides of the aisle to advocate for my bipartisan DIVEST Act to put an end to the decades-long abuse senior level bureaucrats have gotten used to,” Cloud said Monday in a statement to the Journal.
The Campaign Legal Center has filed complaints with federal agencies following a WSJ series.
I sent a letter expressing my deep concern about the increase in violence against religious minorities in the Republic of India.
American and Indian citizens have benefited from the friendship that our countries share, and it is my hope that our countries continue to build in our friendship for years to come.
However, reports uncovered that homes of religious minorities were illegally demolished and an ordinance was issued that bans individuals from converting to a different religion.
The Constitution of India strongly affirms the free exercise of religion, therefore my letter calls upon the government of India to reinforce its Constitution's ideals and to publicly affirm the safety and security of religious minorities.
Today the House Oversight Committee released a report detailing evidence of President Biden's involvement in his family’s shady business deals.
The Biden family is officially under investigation.
They will be held accountable.
Breaking: House Republicans announce probe into Hunter Biden | National Report
The Biden administration's border chief Chris Magnus has resigned after failing his duty to protect the American people and safeguard our borders.
The core problem, DHS Secretary Mayorkas, has failed equally.
He should resign next.
Republican lawmakers torched now-former Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) Commissioner Chris Magnus following his Saturday resignation after being told to quit or be fired.
Happy Veterans Day!
Our nation celebrates the American heroes who made selfless sacrifices so that our families can be safe and our country can prosper.
The freedom we cherish today was only made possible by those who had the courage to defend our liberties.
God bless our veterans and their families!

A record-breaking 64,000 illegal migrants evaded Border Patrol agents in October. Over 600k gotaways total in FY22.
This is mayhem.
Secure our border, protect our homeland.
More than 64,000 illegal immigrants slipped past Border Patrol agents in October, higher than the average for the record-setting fiscal year 2022, according to multiple CBP sources.
In 2022 alone:
— 281 police officers were shot
— 55 were killed
— 71 ambush-style attacks occurred
This is unacceptable. Pray for our police.
Mayorkas' DHS is more concerned with censoring speech than it is with securing our southern border.
I joined the House Oversight Committee in demanding all documents and communications related to the inception and operation of any online content monitoring program hosted by or in partnership with DHS.
They must be held accountable.
New letter demands documents on censorship partnership with private group, questions truthfulness of DHS secretary's public statements on border patrol agents.
This November is National Veterans and Military Families Month.
May we honor the families and loved ones of our nation’s veterans and military who protect the freedoms we cherish.
Your many sacrifices do not go unnoticed.
Today I joined to call on Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to provide the Biden administration’s plans, if any, to address the worst border crisis in American history.
— Record high illegal immigrant encounters
— Record high fentanyl poisonings
— Record high migrants deaths
— Record high terrorist encounters
— Record high "gotaways"
The Biden administration has left our southern border in shambles and Americans are demanding accountability.
House Republicans’ top investigators wrote to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Wednesday demanding he pony up reams of information on the chaotic border that he’s withheld during his tenure in office.
God bless our brave Border Patrol agents.
This is clearly an invasion. Yet, the Biden administration remains derelict in its duty to secure the border and protect our homeland.
Shameful.
A large group of illegal migrants crossed into the U.S. and allegedly attacked Border Patrol agents with a flagpole and rocks, according to Customs and Border Protection.
Today we celebrate National First Responders Day!
A huge thank you to the folks who give of themselves and even put their own lives on the line to protect and care for others.
I am praying for the courageous Iranian citizens opposing their regime's violent crackdown on their most basic rights and fundamental freedoms.
I am a cosponsor of the Mahsa Amini Act, named after Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old girl, who was arrested by Iran’s Guidance Patrol for wearing an "improper" hijab.
The police were accused of beating her and inflicting a fatal head injury, sparking mass protest and leading to even more violent attacks by the Iranian government on its own citizens.
This continued abuse must stop.
Thousands of protesters gathered at a cemetery in Iran’s restive Kurdistan province to mourn Mahsa Amini, the young woman whose death in police custody last month sparked demonstrations.
Criminal Cartels are targeting American children with "rainbow fentanyl" by making this lethal drug look like candy.
Today, Congressman James Comer and I opened an investigation to understand if/how the Department of Homeland Security plans to address this issue to protect our children.
Fentanyl is the number one killer of young Americans.
Yet, the Biden administration continues its reckless open border policies which have now emboldened criminal cartels to target American children in their drug trafficking operations.
As Halloween approaches, it is more important than ever before to be wary of what our children are consuming and to be on the lookout for any suspicious candy.
Congressional Republicans demanded answers from Homeland Security Wednesday over growing dangers of “rainbow fentanyl” just before Halloween.

This morning I joined Fox and Friends First to discuss my new bill to strengthen relationships between ICE and local law enforcement to allow them more control in keeping their communities safe. Check it out⤵️
Nobody likes it when their hypocrisy is exposed.
Our federal government is engulfed in waste, fraud, and abuse. We have to give oversight to the Executive Branch and ensure our government is working for the American people, not the other way around.
Yesterday I joined Newsmax TV in studio to discuss Biden's Border Crisis and rampant inflation. Check it out⤵️
The Biden administration has enabled criminal cartels to run the biggest human trafficking operation in American history. They must be held accountable.
Congress must fix the rules to enable the system to work for Americans best interests.
Inflation is a hidden tax on all Americans. How has inflation impacted you? Leave a comment and let tell your story.
Congressman Michael Cloud sits down with Bob Jones Radio to Discuss how Americans take steps to save their nation.
Today I joined a press conference with several sheriffs from around the country to discuss how Biden's Border Crisis is harming Americans. Fentanyl continues to plague this nation, terrorists cross in record numbers, and communities are destroyed. We must secure our border.
MUST WATCH: Democrats continue to demonize American oil and gas companies at every opportunity. Meanwhile, this is the face of the Green New Deal:
Inflation rose to 8.3% in August as wages continue to decrease. Food prices are painfully high, and Americans are hurting. Yet the Biden administration continues its reckless spending to further damage our economy.
Democrats blamed Putin for inflation. They blamed oil companies for higher gas prices. They blamed the crime crisis on the second amendment. Now they expect you to believe Texas is to blame for the Biden Border Crisis. Unbelievable.
Violent cartels completely control our southern border and the Biden administration continues to aid and abet their operation. Fentanyl pours into our country, terrorists cross in record numbers, and communities are destroyed. All while this administration turns a blind eye.
The hypocrisy coming from far-left mayors would be laughable if not for the tragedy occurring at our southern border. Open borders have never been compassionate. We must do what’s right for America and secure our border.
Predictably the faux righteous, lecturing left go from declared sanctuary city to calling for military intervention the moment the open border fallout reaches their backyard. I joined Newsmax to discuss, check it out ⬇️
Soft on crime policies led to the massive crime wave our country now faces. Criminals who commit heinous acts are released only to commit heinous acts once again. Americans need protection, yet far-left Democrats continue to try and strip them of their Second Amendment right.
Democrats' Defund the Police movement fueled a massive crime wave that plagued our communities. They discouraged local law enforcement and are now pretending to solve the problem they created in the first place. This was their plan all along.
The Biden climate agenda makes no sense. We produce energy more responsibly and more efficiently than anyone in the world. We should open the spigots here, not look to foreign adversaries and countries who aren't as responsible for our energy needs.
Rather than unleashing American energy, Biden went to Saudi Arabia to beg for oil even though they produce it with much higher carbon emissions. This isn't about combating the "climate crisis." It's about pushing the new Liberal World Order.
Under the Biden administration, our southern border has become the "Cartel's dreamland." I joined the Fox Report to discuss ⬇️
A fist bump for the Crown Prince, and a slap in the face for Texas oil and gas workers.
House Oversight Democrats compared hard-working oil and gas workers to the criminal cartels causing chaos at our southern border. I set the record straight. Oil and gas workers strengthen this nation. Criminal cartels destroy it.
Inflation reached 9.1% in June, the highest rate in over 40 years. Last year, the Biden administration told Americans that inflation was nothing to worry about and would only be temporary. Inflation is a tax on every single hardworking American, and this economic crisis is a direct result of the Biden administration's reckless spending.
Today, the House Oversight Committee held a hearing on the "Impact of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs Decision on Abortion Rights and Access Across the U.S." Pro-abortion advocates have spread endless amounts of misinformation regarding what this decision means for expecting mothers. The fear-mongering must stop. In the video below, I cut through the noise to shine a light on the truth about this decision.
Yesterday I joined Sean Hannity to discuss the Biden Border Crisis and the devastating impact it has on Texas communities. 80,000 Americans died from fentanyl last year, most of which is smuggled into the United States through our southern border by criminal cartels. 3.2 MILLION illegal immigrants have been apprehended at our southern border with an estimated 800,000 "gotaways" who remain here unaccounted for. 50+ known terrorists have been apprehended, with an unknown amount who inevitably avoided apprehension and are living here in the shadows. The Biden administration is derelict in its duty to protect and secure our homeland. We must return to Trump-era policies that were proven to be successful.
Texas is being invaded. Tonight I joined Spicer & Co to discuss how some Texas counties have made the historic decision to declare an invasion due to the Biden administration's continued border crisis.
Yesterday I joined Newsmax to discuss the Supreme Court allowing the Biden administration to terminate Trump's 'Remain in Mexico' policy. "Just because they upheld the Biden administration to terminate this one policy, doesn't mean that it's the right thing to do for the nation."
Life wins!
Our primary job in Congress is to protect and preserve the Constitution and the liberties that belong to Americans. We cannot continue to concede the authority of the American people to the federal government. We must stand for our Second Amendment.
