With both sides pushing to pass a massive Omnibus, itโ€™s important to look at the numbers.

Total federal spending in 2019 was $4.4 trillion. Now theyโ€™re talking about a 36% increase in spending to $6.0 trillion.

Washington is out of control.

Do you know how much money the federal government spent last year?

Iโ€™ve been asking my colleagues and journalists in DC this question and virtually nobody knows.

Why?

We are the largest financial entity in the world, and we never talk about how much total money we spend.

As members of Congress, we are the Board of Directors of the largest financial entity in the world.

If we were a business instead of the government, we wouldโ€™ve been fired years ago for this continued reckless spending.

It must be stopped.

Over 8,000 service members have been terminated for refusing to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

Today, I supported passage of the NDAA that rescinds the Biden Administrationโ€™s harmful and pointless COVID-19 vaccine policy.

Now that the military's COVID-19 vaccine mandate is ending, I hope @ SecDef Subscribe and share gives careful consideration to this letter we sent today urging the Pentagon to freeze all COVID-19 vaccine-related discharges and start undoing the harm caused by this misguided policy.

Here is further proof the FBI interfered in the 2022 Wisconsin U.S. Senate election. Add that to FBI interference in the 2016 and 2020 Presidential elections and you have an alarming pattern of corruption that should concern every American.

How deep does this corruption go?

Somethingโ€™s got to give if we want to avoid further financial devastation for Americans across the income spectrum.

A good start? Stop fast-tracking massive omnibus spending bills without time for careful consideration.

Today, I offered an amendment to eliminate $9.8 billion worth of earmarks from the massive omnibus spending bill.

This is the gateway drug to massive deficit spending and further mortgaging our childrenโ€™s futures.

Imagine your football team is losing 60 โ€“ 0. In the last few seconds, you kick a 3 point field goal & call the game a โ€œbig win.โ€

It's an enormous loss.

Republicans are using this same analogy to argue that increasing defense spending in a $1.7 trillion bill is a "big win."

Earmarks are the gateway drug to mortgaging our childrenโ€™s futures.

625 pages of earmarks, totaling almost $10 billion in additional spending, will go to states that are sitting on almost $400 billion in surpluses.

This is grotesque.

My amendment to the 4000+ page omnibus is simple.

It ensures that funds appropriated for transporting illegal migrants can only be used to send them home, to a safe third country or to a detention facility.

We have to get our border under control but the Senate refuses to.

The Omnibus that just passed in the Senate is an abomination.

That's why I voted no.

There is no way anyone had time to read all 4,155 pages, much less comprehend how the massive deficit spending and major policy elements will negatively impact Americans.

Although the Biden adminโ€™s COVID-19 vaccine mandate for the military will end with the signing of the Fiscal Year 2023 National Defense Authorization Act, my efforts to uncover and expose the vaccinesโ€™ harmful effect on our service members will continue.
