They sold you out, folks—and there’s no excuse.
After months of trying my hardest to get a piece of legislation that actually benefits the American people, Congress pulled a fast one on us. We’re stuck with a stocking full of coal this Christmas season, and to no one’s surprise, President Biden will give it his stamp of approval in no time.
The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) is $886 billion worth of nonsense. There’s a boatload of garbage in this bill, but let’s unpack some of the biggest loads of liberal crap.
First off, it will pour more cash into extending FISA, a surveillance program that practically hands the FBI a magnifying glass to peer into our lives. Sure, they claim they’re on the God-honest hunt for terrorists, but they’re really threatening the privacy of everyday Americans. If you’re caught in a conversation with someone they might suspect, you’re under their dadgum microscope—and the alphabet agencies have a very different standard than most of us when it comes to who is a “danger.” They exploited FISA to eavesdrop on the Trump campaign and to wrongfully dig into millions of Americans’ emails and online records. Talk about a breach of trust.
Next up on the list of absurdities in this bill: Sex change operations for transgender service members. Because that’s clearly a high-priority issue when China is nipping at our heels and military recruitment is scraping the bottom of the barrel. At the end of the day, this will cost us millions of dollars once all is said and done. From lifelong hormone medication to ongoing medical services, the price tag of woke trans legislation will keep getting higher—and our tax dollars foot the bill.
Of course, they also threw in even more unchecked dollars to help Ukraine, authorizing a whopping $300 million for a war that isn’t ours to fight. It's a tough pill to swallow, but this is what happens when the swamp prioritizes woke madness and war-mongering over all else.
This not-so-merry legislation is a real letdown, and I can assure you that I gave it my all to put a stop to it. Even though it's disheartening, here's my promise to you: I'll keep on fighting the good fight, no matter how tough it gets. Your trust means the world to me, and I'm truly grateful for it.
