🚨BREAKING🚨

Kimberly Cheatle has resigned from her position as Director of the Secret Service. 9 days too late, but this is a step toward holding the Secret Service accountable for their failures on July 13

07/22/2024

Director Cheatle was incredibly inconsistent with what she was WILLING to reveal to the House Oversight Committee and the public today.

Letting facts about the attempted assassination of President Trump be known would increase trust among the American people and answer their concerns - but she refused to give it to us straight.

07/22/2024

Joe Biden’s administration has failed the American people over and over. Now, the Democrat party is scrambling to find a new presidential nominee in an effort to try to preserve their power.

Hear more in my discussion with NEWSMAX this morning⬇️

07/22/2024

Today, we expect more than excuses about a "sloped roof" or shifting blame.

President Trump, the House Oversight Committee, and the American people demand real answers and assurances that the Secret Service can, and will, effectively protect our leaders.

Weak voting laws are allowing noncitizens to register and vote in federal elections. This is outrageous.

The House is voting on legislation this week to stop this madness and ensure only AMERICAN CITIZENS can vote in U.S. elections.

Happy Independence Day!

248 years ago, the Second Continental Congress ratified the Declaration of Independence, and the United States of America was born. As we gather with loved ones to celebrate, let’s remember the sacrifices of Americans that came before us and the principles they fought for. May we continue to uphold the values of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness that have blessed our nation, and the world.

God bless you and your family, and God bless America.

Under President Biden’s failed leadership, our country is less safe than it was three years ago.

Today, House Republicans are bringing appropriation bills to the Floor that strengthen our national security and protect the safety of Americans.

The CCP is stopping at nothing to infiltrate every aspect of our economy, society, and governance.

We must ensure that our federal agencies are prepared to combat the CCP’s political warfare tactics. Follow along during today's House Oversight Committee hearing⬇️

President Xi and the CCP are targeting American communities. Earlier this year, I sounded the alarm as the CCP was setting up shop in Kansas under the guise of Cnano Technology USA.

I will not stop fighting to protect Kansans and the critical military operations in our state.

Two years ago today, the U.S. Supreme Court righted a 50-year wrong. Roe v. Wade was overturned and the right to protect children in the womb was restored.

Every life has value, and I will always protect the most vulnerable lives among us – the unborn.

Three universities in KS02 have been recognized in the top 100 colleges across the Midwest. Congratulations Emporia State University, University of St. Mary, and my alma mater, Pittsburg State University! It’s a privilege to represent all of the outstanding higher education institutions in the 2nd District in Congress.

Border security is national security. Kansans know this and they are fed up with President Biden’s failed open border policies.

06/17/2024

Our servicemembers put their lives on the line every day to protect our freedoms. They deserve the highest quality of support and resources like boosted compensation, improved housing, access to medical care, and family support.

Last week, I voted YES on FY25 National Defense Authorization Act which improves quality of life resources for American military servicemembers and gives them the resources they need as they serve our country.

Happy 249th birthday, U.S. Army! I’m grateful for all the soldiers, both past and present, who answered the call to serve and protect our country. As the representative in Congress for Fort Riley and Fort Leavenworth, I’m proud to represent soldiers and their families in Kansas. Thank you for your service!

President Biden has weakened America’s presence on the world stage. House Republicans' FY25 NDAA restores American deterrence by:

✔️Preventing China’s espionage in our military
✔️Supporting America’s allies including Taiwan and Israel
✔️Fully funding National Guard troops to secure the southern border
✔️Cutting wasteful, inefficient programs in the DoD and the Pentagon

The Defense Appropriations Act will strengthen U.S. military forces, protect our national security, and support our servicemembers and their families - NOT fund a partisan wishlist.

House Committee on Appropriations is eliminating $18 billion in unjustified agenda items in the President’s budget for Dept. of Defense and prioritizing the safety of Americans.

06/13/2024

Kansans are tired of their taxpayer dollars being used to fund ineffective programs that don't reflect their values. Here’s how the FY25 State and Foreign Operations bill responsibly stewards taxpayer dollars and supports American principles:

✅Eliminates funding for unnecessary, partisan agendas like President Biden’s Green Climate Fund

âś…Prohibits research lab funding in adversarial nations like China, Iran, Russia, and North Korea

âś…Supports religious freedom protections for faith-based organizations delivering foreign aid

âś… PASSED out of Committee

The FY25 State and Foreign Operations Appropriations Act responsibly protects our national security, safeguards America’s global economic interests, and supports our allies like Israel and Taiwan.

Wasteful spending in Washington is continuing to crush Americans. This week, my House Committee on Appropriations colleagues and I are reviewing more FY25 appropriations bills line-by-line to reduce reckless spending and fully fund programs that actually matter to Americans - like securing our national security and defense.

Thousands of illegal immigrants are STILL crossing into the United States every single day, despite President Biden’s executive order last week. Let’s be clear: it does nothing to end the border crisis that he’s created.

Americans deserve better.

💥BORDER CRISIS UPDATE: Over 9,500,000 illegal immigrants have crossed the southern border since Joe Biden took office—including the 1.6 million migrants who evaded law enforcement and entered undetected.

That's more than 3X the population of Kansas.

Today we remember and honor the American heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice serving our nation and the Gold Star families who continue to carry on their legacies.

May today be a reminder that freedom isn't free. God bless our men and women in uniform.

Scam compounds across Southeast Asia contain thousands of individuals who are trafficked, held against their will, and forced to help perpetrate online scams against innocent Americans.

I asked Secretary Blinken what the Biden administration is doing to combat this billion-dollar fraud and ongoing human trafficking crisis:
