One-Way Ticket to a Socialistic Welfare State

| Posted in Blog

The agenda outlined by President Biden on Wednesday night is a one-way ticket to a socialistic welfare state with astronomical taxes, and government encroaching on every aspect of our lives.  His vision for our nation involves growing the size of almost every corner of the federal government. (With the exception of our military, to nobody’s surprise.) There’s simply no room to talk…

No Friend of Ours

| Posted in Blog

The communist government of China is no friend of ours. They’re working every possible angle to exploit various aspects of our economy, steal our intellectual property, and create a one-way reliance on their country which they intend to leverage for political and military gain.   Three quick updates on this communist regime:   FIRST, finally some good news out of…

No Surprises Here

| Posted in Blog

No surprises here. Let’s run through some of President Biden’s executive orders during his first week in office. These are campaign promises he’s making good on – we knew they’d be coming.   PARIS CLIMATE AGREEMENT: It’s basically a sham. There’s no objective standard – each country gets to define what it wants to do. Countries can lie six ways from Sunday about whether they’re…

More Fallout from Day One

| Posted in Blog

More fallout from Day #1 of the Biden Administration. We need some quick answers on this.   One of the things Mr. Biden did last week was place a 100-day moratorium on most deportations. Over 14,000 illegal immigrants had been in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”).   Of those, more than 70% have either been charged with, or convicted of,…

Rep. Norman Leads Charge to Secure U.S. Colleges and Universities from Foreign Threats

| Posted in Press Releases

In response to a bi-partisan charge led by Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC), the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) is now taking action to help secure our nation’s colleges and universities from foreign threats. In February 2020, Rep. Norman and Rep. Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) led 51 members of Congress in a letter to DHS Acting Secretary Chad Wolf expressing concern over…

Below is a full replay of my telephone town hall, which took place on Thursday, July 30th. During this call, I covered a wide variety of issues including our COVID-19 response, our economy and jobs, our federal spending and national debt, along with several other important topics.

Mixed Results From the Supreme Court This Week

| Posted in Blog

Earlier this week, the Supreme Court delivered two decisions that were very important. I believe one was outstanding, while another was terrible. === GOOD NEWS FIRST === There was a BIG win yesterday for religious schools, and those who value religious liberties and our First Amendment. Back in 2015, Montana established a program that provided a tax credit for those…

The Leading Mouthpiece for Beijing

| Posted in Blog

In 2003, when the contagious 'SARS' pandemic spread from China, the World Health Organization (WHO) had the courage and the moral authority to criticize that regime's cover-up. Since then, something has happened to transform this organization from global health guardian... to the leading mouthpiece for Beijing. We need to know what that something is. Here's an excerpt from the letter I…

Unlike Any Other State of the Union Address

| Posted in Blog

Two totally different worlds – two completely different mindsets – were on full display last night. It was unlike any other State of the Union address I’ve seen, either in person or on TV. There were a couple of themes to the President’s address. First, he took a well-deserved victory lap on numerous fronts: from the economy & trade to our military & war on terror. We must always…

How Leverage Works

| Posted in Blog

Lost in much of the news coverage last week was that the U.S. signed Phase One of a new trade deal with China. More on that in a moment. First let’s remember we've had major problems with that country, ranging from unfair trade practices to rampant intellectual property theft. It’s critical we recognize that China would have been nowhere near the negotiating table were it not for…
