The way to fund the government is not by doing it the same way Congress has since the mid-90s, where it's one up or down vote on the entire government all at once. We should have separate single-subject spending bills. Speaker McCarthy promised that in January. He is in breach of that promise. I'm not here to hold the government hostage. I'm here to hold Kevin McCarthy to his word.

Speaker McCarthy stalled the appropriations process for eight months. I agree with many of my colleagues who say that if he embraces a clean continuing resolution to continue the spending policies of Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden, that would most likely trigger a motion to vacate.

BREAK THE FEVER! Congress must kick the habit of governing by omnibus and continuing resolution. This rule that the Rules Committee is about to vote on, and hopefully pass, provides us the greatest platform to do deliberative governing and reduce spending in a way that is consistent with our values and the reality of divided government.

Speaker McCarthy purposefully backed us up against the wall on spending bills and then sent everyone home at 3pm on a Thursday. This is not the French work week. We’re going to have to address his leadership after we get through this government funding crisis.

Lt. Gen. DeAnna Burt gave a speech recently where she said she considers a state’s LGBT and abortion policy before choosing a candidate for squadron commands. Senior military officials now tell me today that her comments are counter to the DOD’s promotion process. HASC Republicans must get to the bottom of this.

Congressman Mike Simpson (who you’ve never heard of) is quite the PAC piglet.

AG GARLAND REFUSES TO ANSWER:

• Can you guarantee the people buying Hunter Biden’s “art” aren’t doing so to gain political favors from the Bidens?

• Did the Biden DOJ dissolve the Trump-era China Initiative as a result of Hunter’s Chinese business deals?

• On January 6th, did you lose count of the number of federal assets?

Speaker McCarthy deserves all the criticism and more because it's his fault that we haven't considered individual appropriations bills up to this point - like he said we would in January. That's not a bug in the system. It's a feature.

Speaker McCarthy did not stay on schedule moving the necessary spending bills that he said he would back in January. Because he failed, everyone's back is now against the wall. But the way out of this is not to revert to the old, corrupt muscle memory of Washington, D.C. with continuing resolutions. The way forward is to have single-subject spending bills.
