Senator John Cornyn
Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) thinks that the reported reason for the FBI raid of former President Donald Trump’s personal residence at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is “thin gruel,” his spokesman told Breitbart News, adding that he backs other Republican calls for an immediate investigation into Attorney General Merrick Garland on the matter

If Democrats will weaponize DOJ, FBI, IRS against a former President, they will think nothing of weaponizing them against the American people. That means you! Biden’s wrecking of the economy is nothing compared to the pain of 87,000 new IRS auditors in their new spending bill.
STATEMENT BY TEXAS AGRICULTURE COMMISSIONER SID MILLER ON FBI RAID OF PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP:
"The unprecedented 'Banana Republic' style raid on the home of a former President of the United States shows the Biden-Pelosi Democrat machine will stop at nothing to retain power at the national level. I have faith that the American people will see this for what it is: the misuse of our federal government in a raw act of political power. I pray for our nation and pray for the Trump family as they must endure this 'Orwellian' act of injustice. Electing a Conservative majority in November is how we end this insanity.”

Biden has crossed the Rubicon. If there was any doubt remaining, we are now living in a post constitutional America where the Justice Department has been weaponized against political threats to the regime, as it would in a banana republic. It won’t stop with Trump. You are next. Government of, by, and for the people, must respect its proper bounds and the rule of law. Otherwise it ceases to be the guardian of our freedoms. Unfortunately corruption and abuse of power is not just a Washington, D.C. problem, and it needs to be called out wherever it is found at all levels of government.

Carmen Calderone Our federal government has been out of control but this is a line I did not expect to see crossed. This administration weaponizing the DOJ and the FBI is one of the greatest threats to Liberty. Trump is only the beginning, they will come after us next. Using government assets to go after your political opponents is something we see in Totalitarian Regimes and dystopian novels. If we let this go unchecked we will never have a free country again. We must work extra hard this election cycle to keep Texas Free and we Texans must fight back against the federal government. |
No Judges? Judicial candidates cannot make any statements or take any political positions regarding other candidates, political office holders or prior candidates. The Judicial Canons and Texas Rules of Ethics prohibit such things. |
And, just because it's so good,
Governor Ron DeSantis:
!!! We're turning into a Banana Republic
The FBI’s raid of Mar-a-Lago is yet another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime’s political opponents, while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves. Why didn't the FBI ever raid Hillary Clinton's house after she laundered classified information through a private server and then deleted 30,000 emails that were under subpoena?
The federal Regime is targeting those it dislikes for disfavored treatment. They are demanding we get in line or face the consequences.
Now, the Regime is getting another 87,000 IRS agents to wield against its adversaries. With this addition, the agency is now larger than the Pentagon, State Department, FBI, and Border Patrol combined, and BILLIONS of dollars are now being directed to fund these new hires. Democrats are not simply expanding an agency. They are growing their army of Biden Regime soldiers standing ready to execute any order by the D.C. Swamp.
The fact that the Left is turning taxpayer-funded government agencies into extensions of the Democrat Machine to do their political bidding right before our eyes should be alarming to every American. These are not actions indicative of leaders in a free republic. This mirrors a Banana Republic.
As your Governor, I have always been clear that the power belongs to the People — not politicians.This blatant overreach by the federal government is an attack on our democracy and the American people.
It is past time that elected representatives in Washington, D.C. stand up against this abuse of power by using the constitutional power of Congress to hold these agencies accountable. For too long these agencies have been on autopilot with no accountability. Let's make sure they stand up for our rights. No excuses! – Stand with me >>>
Sincerely,
Ron DeSantis
