Nothing says a good record when the only thing your party has done in the past 3 years is stage a failed coup, prop up the leader of the coup as the head of your party, take away women's rights, sell out America's allies to fellow fascists in Russia, and further weaken the economy by being able to do simple governance.
https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4390281-arizona-gop-lawmaker-republicans-have-nothing-to-campaign-on/ Republican Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.) tore into his GOP colleagues during a Thursday appearance on Newsmax, criticizing their approach to government funding and saying his colleagues in the party have “nothing to campaign on.”
Biggs, former chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, slammed his conference after being asked how many of the 12 individual spending bills the House Republicans completed during an appearance on “The Chris Salcedo Show.”
“None. None. None have been completed,” Biggs said. “There’ve been a few of them. Seven I think have been sent to the Senate from the House. The Senate has not taken up a single one of those bills. How do you campaign on the trust of the American people? You failed and continue to fund this goofy Ukraine, this outrageous Ukraine debacle that’s going on.”
“We have nothing to go out there and campaign on, Chris. It’s embarrassing.”
Biggs’s agitation comes as House and Senate conservatives threaten to shut down the government unless Senate Democrats and the White House agree to secure the southern border. The border fight has delayed the supplemental funding bill that would allocate funds for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan.

Quoted By:
House Republican hard-liners have grown skeptical about Ukraine funding but recently expressed that they would support the supplemental package for the embattled country if Congress passes their proposed border security bill, H.R. 2. Some conservatives said Wednesday they were looking to add major border security revisions to regular government funding bills, while supplementary foreign aid remains stalled in the process. “There’s going to be a big effort to make sure we do nothing on funding unless we secure the border,” Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) told The Hill on Wednesday. “That’s going to be the big fight.” “Everybody knows that the southern border now is a clear and present danger, the country knows it’s a clear and present danger. The numbers [of migrants] are staggering,” he said. “I’m going to work with anybody I can to make sure there won’t be any funding bill done until there’s a secure border.” If Congress doesn’t provide funding for military construction and the departments of Veterans Affairs, Agriculture, Energy, Transportation and Housing and Urban Development by Jan. 19, the government will go into a partial shutdown. The rest of the government needs to be funded by Feb. 2.

This was something that was decided when we switched from the Articles of Confederation to the Constitution.
Texas is just straight-up making blatantly unconstitutional laws right now, like trying to prevent women from traveling to other states to get legal abortions there.

Their response was to ram through j6 showtrials in DC courts with draconian sentences and a blatant disparity in law enforcement and sentencing regarding riots in and around the entire DC area just months before.
The entire neocon, democrat, DoJ, FBI, big tech collusion over the past 8 years is so easily defined as insurrection when you understand BLM was trained in Venezuela by Maduro and admitted such, BLM was funded by Ds and their urban DAs refused to charge attacks on federal property and the White House as insurrection. Real attacks featuring arsons, and more than 200 capital police and secret service agents injured.

Fascism just means the Republicans use the police to get vagrants off the streets, use the death penalty against pedophiles, and stop the DEI racket from playing favorites with narcissistic sociopaths like Claudine Gay.
It means we stop funding Ukraine's borders and stop funding our own.
It means building pipelines, instead of surrendering the century to China.
Fascism is just common sense at this point.

>>1253885 That's actually an easy question that immigrants have already solved.
See, if you're retarded enough to flee to America, what sometimes happens that you get raped or beaten (sometimes a combination of the two if you're a child), which means you need to go to the hospital.
So when Mrs. Jose Maria Rigoberto Aguascacas de Santo Domingo de los Diabetico goes into the emergency room, they treat her, right? Emergency rooms in the US can't turn patients away, after all.
But see, immigrants have found this really cool loophole where they'll just fucking leave and not pay the bill. And because they have no legal name or mailing address, nobody can fucking find the stupid cunt after they leave, so the hospital ends up eating the cost.
Immigrants literally bankrupting hospitals in southern states because they don't abide by the norms of society. They just arrive, get free healthcare, shit out a kid and spend the rest of their life working tax-free.
