John, 

I recently wrote about Biden's 2023 budget and how dangerous it could be for
our country.

Is America serious about survival in this increasingly dangerous world?
President Joe Biden’s $5.8 trillion budget says no. So does the recent $1.5
trillion earmark-filled spending bill. They send the message that America
doesn’t care about the fiscal sanity and economic strength on which our
national security depends.

 

There is never a good time to send that signal. But the worst time is right
now, as Russia invades Ukraine and threatens nuclear war, and China aims to
dominate the world. Instead of preparing to defend our freedom and vital
interests, President Biden and Congress are undermining the domestic
foundations of our global leadership. Their failure puts our future at risk.

 

That’s the essential point of Biden’s budget. It hikes federal spending by a
third compared to pre-pandemic levels, doubling down on the debt and deficits
that are destroying opportunity for our children and grandchildren. He’s also
demanding $2.5 trillion in tax hikes, which will undermine our economy for
generations to come. And then there’s the recent spending bill, which brought
back earmarks – more than 4,000 of them, in fact. They are the grease to
Washington’s spending wheel, which is spinning faster than ever and set to get
worse. Overspending is clearly a bipartisan pandemic.

 

We know where this story ends: A bankrupt America. Earmarks encourage both
Republicans and Democrats to support the very spending hikes Joe Biden is
calling for in his budget, because hey, at least they’re getting something. Yet
the national debt stands at more than $30 trillion – having tripled in just
over a decade – and it’s set to rise by at least a trillion dollars a year
without end. Washington’s spending binge was dangerous before earmarks came
back. Now it’s set to reach a new low, and the national debt a new high, since
both parties have a reason to put selfish desires before America’s security
demands.

 

This is not a recipe for national success, much less survival. Not when Russia
is attacking Europe and China is advancing on every front. More spending and
debt mean less money for the military, which needs a much larger investment
than Biden has called for to contain and deter Russia, China, Iran, and North
Korea. And a deeper fiscal hole has a devastatingly high economic cost.

 

The national debt takes us nowhere, but it comes from somewhere, and that’s
the American people. Washington spending has already driven inflation to a
40-year high, and while the short-term harm to families is steep, the long-term
consequences will take us over a cliff. Every dollar we add to the debt comes
out of the people’s pockets, leading to weaker businesses, lower wages, and a
smaller economy overall. Add in Biden’s tax hikes, and Americans will suffer
even more.

 

How can we stay ahead of our enemies if we’re falling behind economically? How
can we beat China, which is getting stronger by the day, if we’re on track to
get weaker? China’s economy may surpass America’s within the next few years,
yet rather than prevent that, our leaders are working hard to make it happen
sooner.

 

This has to stop. Fiscal sanity and economic strength are foundational to
national security, but Washington is too distracted to realize it. Instead of
bringing back earmarks and doubling down on spending and debt, we should be
getting spending under control. That means no new entitlements, no more
"stimulus," and no more corporate welfare masquerading as "relief" or
"infrastructure." We need to fundamentally change how Washington spends, before
Washington’s spending fundamentally changes us.

 

Restoring fiscal sanity is necessary, but it isn’t sufficient. Equally
important is restoring free-market capitalism to spark an economic boom. That
starts by getting government out of the way of job-seekers and entrepreneurs
through top-to-bottom regulatory and tax reform. It also means tapping
America’s incredible energy resources. We should drill our own oil before
buying a drop from Russia, Iran, Venezuela, or any other enemy – the opposite
of President Biden’s approach. A country that wants to defend itself doesn’t
pay regimes that want to destroy it.

 

We must also be smarter about who we trade with. Trade with China in advanced
technology and dependence on China for essential supplies such as medicine must
end. We should reinvigorate trade with our friends by forging better deals with
the United Kingdom, Taiwan, India, Japan, the European Union, and
freedom-loving countries worldwide. The alternative is to keep empowering
regimes that want to end freedom and spread tyranny worldwide. Let them trade
with each other; we don’t want what they’re selling.

 

These are the urgent priorities that demand attention from the White House and
Congress. Instead, our leaders are focused on unaffordable spending and
unjustifiable earmarks. Their short-sightedness threatens our fiscal solvency,
our economic strength, and ultimately, our national security. We need leaders
who are serious about protecting America, before it’s too late.

Update on the Next Election

 

I want to give you a quick update on my plans for the next election. Since
launching Stand For America PAC we have financially supported dozens of

Virginia. Now I’m focused on helping even more Republicans win in the next
election, and I want you to play an important part. 

 

If you want to support leaders who believe America is inherently good, and who
understand that the Democrats' far-left policies undermine our freedoms and
American values, I’m humbly asking you to join my team today.
