What’s been frustrating is there have been continuing resolution after continuing resolution that provides leverage points to achieve some of those policy objectives and core objectives in terms of protecting our republic, and Republicans have taken a dive on all of them. In the meantime, I want to go on to the next topic, which is what Congress is doing. As I’ve been highlighting for you in recent weeks, Congress has been out of town, or the House specifically, for six weeks. And it was only on September 8th, I guess it was earlier this month, earlier this week, that they came back.
And there’s a big debate over whether or not the continuing resolution that Congress has to pass around the end of the month to fund government operations for an hour long and the continuing resolution lasts will include any provisions of good policy that conservatives want. Such as the SAVE Act, for instance, which is what Speaker Johnson currently wants to add to the continuing resolution, meaning if governments to be funded, there has to be this law that puts teeth into the federal law that prevents aliens from voting. Meaning people will have to verify, or when they register to vote, show their citizenship and verify their citizenship.
And of course, the left opposes that, and so that’s the big debate. And I don’t know what’s going to happen, but I do know you need, if you want anything good to come out of this continuing resolution, voters need to have their views heard. And I highlighted it earlier this week. Well, I’ve had a few meetings here in Washington, D.C. this week. It’s pretty clear that most of Congress is thinking of ways to get out of the city without doing anything for the rest of the year. Not cutting spending to curtail inflation, not protecting our elections from alien voting, not protecting Trump and the rule of law from the effort to jail him by the Biden regime, not doing much of anything.
And frankly, if you’re interested in having Congress do something, you should contact them now. 202-225-3121. That’s 202-225-3121. There I am, hulking around, lurking around Washington, D.C., talking about what’s going on. But what’s going on ain’t good to be blunt. And you’ve got to let your views be heard. And I don’t know what the outcome’s going to be. The outcome’s probably going to be what the prior outcomes have been, which is they will fully fund everything they oppose. And they won’t even do something simple like ensure that aliens really can’t vote in our elections. And that there’s a serious law that actually stops them as opposed to the pinky promise system where they promise not to vote and won’t sign up for voting, and there’s no check on that.
And so what might happen is the continuing resolution is passed with the save. This is the best circumstance, given past experience. And the Senate drops it, and then it goes back to the House. And the House has to decide whether they’re going to pass it or shut the government partially down, because the government’s never fully shut down. And Republicans see a shutdown as a political loser. I’m not persuaded that it’s the right, the wrong thing to do, I should say. But if I were in Congress, I’d want, you know, these are not issues about, well, you know, I don’t like this particular provision, but it’s not the end of the world.
There are a lot of terrible things going on. These are things that are kind of essential to our republic, right? What’s essential to our republic? I consider the following topics. Stopping the border invasion, stopping the lawfare against Trump, defunding Jack Smith, ensuring aliens aren’t ruining our elections by illegally voting with virtually no checks in place that are substantial, and there’s a whole host of other issues. And what’s been frustrating is there have been continuing resolution after continuing resolution that provide leverage points to achieve some of those policy objectives and core objectives in terms of protecting our republic, and Republicans have taken a dive in all of them.
And I don’t think the leadership has been there, because they don’t want to shut the government down, so they don’t have any leverage point. And do you think things are going to change next year, just because, assuming, if you’re a Republican, you think Trump’s going to get elected, and the Republicans will control all of Congress, do you think things will be much better? Yeah, things will be partly better in terms of policy goals and objectives, in terms of their likelihood of being achieved for conservative values. But on these big issues, don’t be so sure that there’s going to be, they’ll be able to run through all that policy issues I’m talking about.
It’s going to be a closely divided House, maybe ten seats, in theory it would be ten seats at best for Republicans, assuming they kept the House, and in the Senate it’s going to be almost 50-50. Maybe it will be 54, which would be significant, but still, it’s still going to be a close run thing. And as you know, there are Republicans who don’t share our urgency on these issues, and almost always are wet blankets on these core conservative values. So I encourage you, you know, there are limited opportunities to get good things done. This continuing resolution is one of those opportunities, and that’s why I encourage you to let your members of Congress know what you think by calling them.
You can reach them through the Capitol Hill switchboard, I gave it up earlier, in that little video, 202-225-3121, 202-225-3121. And I talked earlier about how I wanted certain topics, or certain topics should be covered by the presidential campaigns, and Congress should as well. So, I mean, here’s what I think should be in the next debate, or answered by the candidates, and frankly covered by Congress as well. Let’s go to that tape. Well, we’re coming up on the big debate between former President Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. Well, on behalf of Judicial Watch, I have more than a few questions for both candidates.
Vice President Harris, just how did you become the presidential nominee for the Democratic Party? Does it concern you that the primary votes of about 15 million American voters were effectively erased? Have you discussed with any government officials invoking the 25th Amendment to remove President Biden because of his obvious dementia? President Trump, do you commit to deporting all illegal aliens from America? What steps will you take to ensure that Biden and other deep state officials who have used their powers to try to rig the election and jail you and other Americans are held fully accountable under law? Is the FBI savagable? Will you commit to full transparency on all government corruption and abuse that have plagued D.C.
for so many years? Of course, I have many other questions. What questions do you have, America? Yeah, so as I’m suggesting here, this is an ongoing debate, right? And, you know, you should be demanding answers as well. I mean, for instance, we had this new topic come up through the debate about what’s going on in Springfield, Ohio. 20,000 Haitians have been imported and dropped in the middle of Ohio on that small town, 60,000 people. Imagine living in a town of 60,000 people and having 20,000 people move there essentially overnight. All of whom are foreign nationals and non-citizens.
And the left says, oh, where they’re legal residents. They’re not legal. That’s a controversial point. They were imported under an authority that’s being challenged in court by Biden. I mean, rather than having him go through Mexico, he’s bringing him in on planes and they’re pretending that’s legal. It doesn’t sound legal to me. Certainly it’s not proper. Certainly it’s not in the least regular, right? What’s Congress going to do on that? What is Congress going to do on the Kamala Harris coup? I’m sorry, 15 million votes go disappear in the primary? How the heck did she become the nominee? I have questions about her legitimacy as the nominee.
I mean, there’s been reports there was corruption involved in her becoming the nominee. Threats were made against the president over the 25th amendment. Congress should bring in people and ask questions about it. I mean, et cetera, et cetera. I mean, you could come up with a big list of things Congress should be doing. Maybe they should defund the invasion. How’s that? They don’t want 20,000 Haitians being flown into the United States by the Biden-Harris gang will defund it. Is that worth shutting the government down over? I think it is. What do you think? Like I said, share your views with your members of Congress.
Thank you. [tr:trw].
