Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. This week, I officially signed my Oath of Office after being sworn into my fourth term in Congress. I am grateful for the trust the people of Pennsylvania’s Ninth District have placed in me as I continue serving as their representative in Washington. Over the next two years, I will work with President Trump and our unified Republican Congress to advance commonsense solutions that put America First and benefit all Pennsylvanians.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. Happy New Year, and I pray that you and your family had a Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, and a joyous holiday season. First, I want to address the horrific attacks that took place in New Orleans and Las Vegas. Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to all the victims of these senseless attacks.  The vacuum of leadership from the Biden Administration has led to instability around the world. From threats coming over the border to the disastrous withdrawal in Afghanistan, which allowed the Taliban to seize control, to ongoing threats from Hamas and Hezbollah, this Administration’s weakness has created an environment, incubators, where terrorism thrives and where individuals—both abroad and domestically—become radicalized. The last four years, President Biden and Democrats have focused on DEI instead of IEDs. We need real leadership back in the White House, and on January 20th, the American people will get that with Donald Trump. His team will lead the DOJ, FBI, Homeland Security, and CIA — putting the handcuffs on the bad guys and not on law enforcement, allowing them to do their jobs effectively. I joined "Mornings with Maria" on Fox Business to discuss further. Click here or below to watch.

Good afternoon, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and welcome to our Weekend Update. From our family to yours, we wish you a blessed, happy, and healthy Christmas and holiday season. We are especially excited for next year as we are less than a month away from President Donald J. Trump's inauguration. We are all ready and excited to Make America Great Again as we work to enact an America First agenda.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. Yesterday, my son, Danny, and I joined President-elect Donald J. Trump, Vice President-elect J.D. Vance, Elon Musk, Speaker Mike Johnson, our next White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, our Commonwealth's next U.S. Senator Dave McCormick, and many other great patriots at the 125th Army-Navy Football Game — an enduring tradition that embodies the bravery, camaraderie, and unwavering dedication of our nation's military. It was quite a day and game. Watching my son discuss energy production and clean energy ideas with Elon Musk was surreal. My son, Danny, is a geology and environmental science major at Bucknell. He is graduating and heading to the Navy. Our new US Senator, Dave McCormick, led the effort to get this great group together. Dave will bring many positive, exciting opportunities to Pennsylvania. President Trump is always generous, hospitable, and personable, and he likes keeping positive energy in the room. Many well-known cabinet members were in attendance. Daniel Penny was also there. Daniel served as a Marine. He and my son spoke at length. I was so impressed by Danny Penny. Incredibly humble, polite, demure. He knows his actions to protect his fellow citizens were necessary. Nevertheless, Danny is so humble, with no pretense, and even somewhat embarrassed by his notoriety.  Anyway, I thought it important to share that so you can understand how nice a young man he is.   Thank you for the opportunity to serve. I won’t kid you; it’s a lot of work every day. But there are also some great opportunities, such as attending the Army-Navy game with the President, US Senator, and my son, that I do not take for granted and very much thoughtfully appreciate.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. On Saturday, we paused to recognize the 83rd anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor—a day that will forever live in infamy. This defining moment in our history resulted in the tragic loss of more than 2,400 Americans, all of whom made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. We honor their memory and the bravery and resilience that continue to define the enduring legacy of the American spirit. This week, I spent nearly an hour and a half with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to discuss their Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) plans. I asked questions and shared my recommendations on rooting out waste, fraud, redundancies, and unnecessary bureaucracy in the federal government. DOGE will prevent the federal bureaucracy from becoming an unelected fourth branch of government.

Good evening, and welcome to our Weekend Update. This week, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled against Democrats' attempts to break election laws by counting defective ballots. This ruling ensures that Dave McCormick will be our next U.S. Senator. I again congratulate Senator-elect McCormick and look forward to working with him in Washington. That said, Democratic officials publicly calling to defy election laws were met with outrage by many, but not Governor Josh Shapiro. The idea that our sitting governor and former attorney general wouldn’t make a statement when the law is being defied is disturbing and disconcerting to voters and all of Pennsylvania. It should not matter if those officials are from his own party.  Check out my “Big Money Show “interview on Fox Business. We discussed the Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruling against Democrats as they blatantly violated election law, blue-state politicians planning to defy Trump’s immigration orders, and the Biden Administration’s recent escalation of the Ukraine-Russia War. Click here or below to watch.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. It was great to hear from President-Elect Donald J. Trump on Wednesday as he joined House Republicans to outline his plan to get our country back on track. From securing the border to growing our economy and restoring energy dominance, his agenda is what is needed to Make America Great Again. I look forward to working with the President and my colleagues to deliver for the American people.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update… an amazing update to share! Before I recap the great election results, I wish our brave veterans a Happy Veterans Day. As former President/President-elect Trump said, “There is no greater act of selfless service than defending America’s God-given freedoms and liberty. The traditions of excellence and integrity demonstrated by our men and women in uniform never fade after leaving the Military—once a Soldier, Sailor, Airman, Marine, Coast Guardsman, or Guardian—always.”

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. We are just 2 DAYS away from Election Day. The presidential election is so critical, and the road to the White House goes right through Pennsylvania. We have an opportunity to dramatically change the direction of our nation by putting President Donald J. Trump back in the White House. This morning, I was in Lititz, Pennsylvania, for the first of a marathon of Trump rallies across the Commonwealth and nation. The future of our country is at stake, and we need EVERY vote to make a difference. Donald J. Trump is the leader that will bring real change and vision to America. Be sure to get out and VOTE on November 5th! I addressed the crowd before President Trump. Click here or below to watch my remarks. Pictured with Tulsi Gabbard below. Pictured below greeting voters.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. I am in New York City for President Donald J. Trump's rally at Madison Square Garden. The momentum that is building behind President Trump is real, and you can feel the energy at every event.  Yesterday, I attended a rally with Donald Trump, Jr. at Montage Mountain for a fall rally with lots of powerhouse speakers! With 9 days left, we have to finish strong and get out the vote! (Pictured with Pam Bondi, former Florida Attorney General, and Don Jr.) (Pictured with Matt Whitaker, Rob Bresnahan, and Pam Bondi)
