An outsider looking at the United States would see a nation that has lost control of its borders, lost control of its currency, and lost its prestige around the world. What might be the most glaring observation, however, is that the national government spends almost $2 trillion per year more than it brings in — plus $1 trillion of interest on the national debt.
The very existence of the United States is at stake.
Certainly, the freedoms that we used to take for granted are at stake, such as:
My fellow Americans, do you think that we should keep Pelosi-Biden-Schumer spending together with the same policies that have given us inflation, wide open borders, energy dependency, woke military, and woke education, all while paying for Ukraine’s war machine, government, and pensions?
I recently read an opinion piece claiming that there is a “shutdown caucus” in Congress that wants a government shutdown. Yet, as even the author acknowledged, government will keep operating. It’s not a shutdown of government, it’s really a pause in out-of-control federal spending related to nonessentials.
There is no impact to Social Security, Medicare, or other mandatory spending programs. Even within the discretionary spending paused, essential government functions continue and backpay is guaranteed when the pause is lifted.

Congress is required to pass spending bills for the new fiscal year by September 30 of every year. Congress is required to pass the spending bills before the end of the fiscal year so funding levels for the next fiscal year will be set.
Today, Congressman Andy Biggs (R-AZ) sent a letter to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas regarding reports of DHS underreporting ‘gotaways’ or illegal aliens who have entered the United States unlawfully but evaded capture from immigration authorities. The letter requires Secretary Mayorkas to provide information on how DHS currently calculates gotaways, gotaway estimates for Fiscal Year 2023, and how the Department aims to ensure more accurate reporting.
Today, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy directed House committees to open an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden. Congressman Andy Biggs (R-AZ) issued the following statement in response to Speaker McCarthy's announcement:
"I’ve long called for the impeachment of President Joe Biden. An impeachment inquiry steers us in a better direction to accomplish that, but more work remains to be done. House Republicans cannot lose focus with this inquiry and slow walk bringing impeachment articles to the House Floor," said Congressman Biggs.
