This week, the House passed a deal to lift federal budget caps and suspend the debt ceiling. The bill is expected to pass the Senate and go to President Trump’s desk. Conservatives in Congress are right to be concerned about this deal as it will add an additional $326 billion to our deficit. More than 100 conservatives voted against it, and Tea Party Patriots Action released a strong statement opposing the spending bill as well. Please read and share this statement, and be sure to see the action item below!
Currently, our economy is booming; there are more Americans working today than ever before, the unemployment rate is lower than it has been in decades, tax revenues have increased, and fewer people are dependent on social programs from the government to make ends meet. If there was ever a time to cut spending, reduce deficits, and tackle our nation debt, it is right now!
Call your Senators TODAY and tell them to vote ‘NO’ on the upcoming spending bill. Simply call the Capitol switchboard at 202-224-3121 and ask to be transferred to your member’s office.
Once again, Democrats tried to breathe life back into the Mueller probe and, once again, their efforts were fruitless. Reviving the Mueller investigation was like reviving a corpse; i.e. it didn’t happen.
Not only did former special counsel Robert Mueller seem ill-prepared, he didn’t seem to know what was in his own report that he filed. He failed to answer questions during the hearing and didn’t give answers that satisfied Democrats. Republicans asked pointed questions that must be answered, which he dodged as “not my purview.”
In the end, nothing happened except that Democrats showed that they don’t believe the bedrock foundation of our judicial system – innocent until proven guilty – applies to one person: President Trump. Did the hearing satisfy the Democrats? Of course not! It shouldn’t come as a shock that they will continue to lie about the Mueller probe because the fact that President Trump is innocent will forever make them crazy. However, the American people have moved on and they are expecting lawmakers to do the same.
We are thrilled to announce Invalidated: The Shredding of the U.S. Patent System won Best Documentary Feature at the Anthem Film Festival last week! We would like to thank everyone who was involved in this important project, as well as everyone that helped get the word out about our failing patent system and the attack on American innovation. Watch the trailer here.
Available for streaming on Amazon Prime and iTunes, Invalidated tells the story about inventor and father of eight, Josh Malone, who comes up with the genius idea to fill 100 water balloons in 60 seconds. His invention, Bunch O Balloons, became an overnight success until he finds out his idea was stolen by a big company and his patent was deemed ‘invalidated.’ The current system allows for major companies to find easier and cheaper ways to infringe on patents rather than pay the inventors for their discoveries. China gets away with an annual $600 billion of stolen intellectual property and other countries profit off innovation rather than the American innovators themselves. We hope you get a chance to watch this eye-opening film about the assault on American innovation. It’s time for a stronger patent system, otherwise, the American Dream will be INVALIDATED.
You know what drives us crazy? Out-of-control judges usurping the power of the elected branches of government! A federal judge blocked President Trump’s rule preventing most migrants from abusing political asylum. The ruling was made on July 15 and U.S. District Judge Jon Tigar in San Francisco, within days, ruled to temporarily block it. Tigar said the policy could expose migrants to violence and abuse, denying their rights under international law. Yes, you read that right – international law. United States judges are now using international law as a basis for their rulings more and more.
The surge in migrants from Central America calling for asylum here instead of Mexico simply shows our asylum laws are being abused and President Trump is the only one calling out the problem. Federal judges appointed by Obama are abusing their powers and clearly making their decisions based on their own partisan beliefs and thirst for power.
IBernie Sanders announced he’s cutting his staffers’ hours so they can “effectively” be paid the $15-minimum wage he’s been promising for the rest of the country if elected president. It just comes to show how not only hypocritical he is but also his championed policy doesn’t even work for his own staff....
