Hello, Friends —
While 2022 has been consumed with Bidenflation and continued unwarranted Congressional spending, I assure you that the 118th Congress ahead will take the first steps in putting us back on track. I will continue standing for Freedom, prosperity, the American Flag, and the spectacular constituents of Florida's First District!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I hope you all have connected with friends, family, and loved ones this holiday season. From my family to yours, have a very Merry Christmas!
REP. GAETZ JOINS TUCKER ON FOX NEWS

Yesterday, I joined Tucker Carlson on Fox News to discuss Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksy's brief visit to the U.S. Capitol. Congresswoman Lauren Boebert (CO) and I have been ridiculed for not standing and clapping as this foreign leader asked for more money from the United States. Taxpayers are set to fund over $100 billion for Ukraine's government and war in a 10-month period. As this war drags on with no end in sight, Democrats finally have a flag they are all willing to stand for — the Ukrainian flag.
CONGRESS PASSES $1.7 TRILLION SPENDING BILL
The $1.7 trillion Omnibus spending legislation allows Nancy Pelosi to rule America's budget for the next year with a dead hand - in one of the worse deals imaginable.
It prioritizes funding for Ukraine's border patrol while tying the hands of our own border patrol.
Foreign countries get economic development while Americans get more government-fueled inflation salted with racial equity mandates. The Fauci-stained NIH subdivision of DEI will receive $525 million to push anti-white narratives.
The very weaponization of our government against We the People is not only embraced but bathed in cash.
Ukraine will be armed with upwards of $50 billion while this bill funds $1.7 billion for the ATF's efforts to disarm and criminalize law-abiding gun owners here at home.
This Omnibus Bill is a godsend to globalists abroad and a disaster for the rest of us at home. I am firmly voting NO, and any Congressman that claims to represent the best interests of the American people should too.

Playbook: Zelenskyy in Washington, Scalise in waiting
"Conservatives’ openness to a Speaker Scalise became apparent last weekend, when Rep. MATT GAETZ (R-Fla.) told the New York Post he was willing to consider the idea. There’s a sense in so-called “Never Kevin” circles that if they take down one potential speaker, they probably couldn’t — or shouldn’t — try to derail another."
