Good work @WHOMB. 🇺🇸
Wasteful funding? Rescinded. We will use every fiscal tool at our disposal to deliver savings for the American people. nypost.com/2026/09/25/us-new…

Glad to see this action. In July, I co-led with @SenatorBanks a letter to OMB calling for exactly this kind of accountability — stopping taxpayer dollars from funding benefits for illegal immigrants and race-focused programs. Federal grants must serve the American people and uphold the Constitution.

80% left-wing filings over the last decade. 100% opposition to President Trump when it filed. The ABA is NOT a neutral arbiter. It’s a left-wing advocacy group.
/1🚨EXPOSED — AFL has released a report finding that 80% of the American Bar Association’s filings from the last decade support leftist causes and lawfare against President Trump. The ABA is not a neutral arbiter and does not deserve to be treated like one.

Yesterday, the Senate Judiciary Committee held a hearing on Flock Safety and other AI surveillance networks. Witness Lindsey Isaacs shared how she was asleep in her apartment when state troopers pounded on her door and accused her of killing three people. Their evidence? A Flock camera picture of her car. She spent 13 days in jail for a crime she didn't commit. Flock has over 120,000 cameras across the U.S. that create 20 billion scans every month. Networks like this pose real threats to Americans such as Lindsey. That's why I co-led the No FLOCK Act to rein in unchecked surveillance. congress.gov/bill/119th-cong…

The next administration can undo these actions unless Congress acts. I have introduced the Permanent CBDC Ban Act. Congress must ensure Americans will never be exposed to unconstitutional financial surveillance. Read more about the bill: cloud.house.gov/posts/releas… nitter.net/RapidResponse47/status…

I continue to be bewildered by the urgency of so many in Congress to ‘save college sports’ when college education still needs saving. Our universities remain a hotbed for woke and Marxist indoctrination, and the NCAA still can’t bring itself to say that you are born either male or female.

Taxpayers shouldn't be forced to fund the shredding of their own civil liberties or the growth of a surveillance state. This bill is the first step toward reining in unchecked surveillance. We can protect public safety without sacrificing the privacy of Americans.

Texas leading the way on the rebirth of American maritime power with cutting-edge capability right here in the Lone Star State.
Replying to @SecWar
@SECWAR “In Texas, under @GregAbbott_TX we are witnessing the rebirth of American maritime power. Since 2022, Saronic has scaled up to over 1,200 Texas employees, operating 540,000 square feet across Austin, and conducting cutting edge maritime trials in Galveston. Saronic’s partnership with the Department is projected to generate over $260 billion in economic impact for the Lone Star state.”

At Tuesday’s @DOGECommittee hearing, I focused on the money. Federal homelessness spending keeps going up, nonprofit executives are making high six-figure salaries, and the results are not getting better. Taxpayers are footing the bill for this grift. We should be livid.

Today’s agreement on Greenland is significant. It gives the United States permanent control over security in the region and ensures no adversary can establish a presence without our approval. Having visited Pituffik Space Base, the strategic importance of this place is clear.

Randi Weingarten was wrong about protecting our kids from COVID, what makes @Microsoft think she’ll get it right protecting our kids in the world of AI?
Decisions made about our children’s education and school closures should be backed by science, not a political agenda. Today, @COVIDSelect will ask Randi Weingarten about her role in pushing politicized COVID policies that prolonged school closures.

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." 239 years later those words still still serve as a lighthouse illuminating the path to Liberty. Happy Constitution Day. 🇺🇸

Ran into a great group of students on a field trip through the Capitol today. Great meeting the next generation of leaders! Even snuck in a few dad jokes - hope they landed.

A step toward accountability and transparency.
Our investigation exposed massive fraud involving homelessness funds in LA. Just one day after our hearing, the White House is taking action against fraudsters accused of using the money for bail, inflated salaries, a nightclub, and gambling. The days of blank checks are over.
