Weekly Update - 8.25.24

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update.

This week, major news broke as third-party candidate Robert F. Kennedy (RFK) bowed out of the race and endorsed President Donald J. Trump. The reality is that the Democrat Party has gone so far in its embrace of the left-wing agenda that a member of the Kennedy family isn’t welcome. The Democrat Party has done everything possible to keep RFK out of the race. The Dem establishment kept him out of the primary against Biden and forced him to run as an independent. They worked overtime to keep his name off the ballot in many states. They have worked to block him from the debate stage and have silenced him using their partners in the mainstream media and big corporate social media. Then they pulled a coup, removing the sitting Democrat nominee, Joe Biden, from the ballot and replacing him with Kamala Harris, without Americans casting a single vote. While RFK and Trump have differing views on some issues, they are both patriots who care deeply about the future of our nation.

On Monday, we welcomed President Donald J. Trump back to Pennsylvania. He visited Precision Custom Components in York County to discuss the economy and his plans to Make America Wealthy Again. President Trump will keep taxes competitive, stop excessive spending, drive energy production, bring down inflation, and make things more affordable once again. Trump can accomplish this and more because he has done it before. (Pictured below with President Trump and Congressman Scott Perry.)

On the other hand, Kamala Harris’s economic plan is to give away handouts and go after businesses. She is perhaps more responsible for soaring inflation than anyone else since she cast the tie-breaking vote in favor of the so-called “Inflation Reeducation Act,” which authorized nearly $1 trillion in new excessive spending to push a Green New Deal agenda.

The Democratic National Convention (DNC) aired this week. It was a made-for-TV special trying to roll out a makeover of Kamala Harris. From fracking to the border to military spending, she’s attempting to reverse nearly every policy position she’s taken throughout her political career. But the American people see through the façade. They know she was ranked the most liberal Senator in Congress, even further left than Bernie Sanders. Our country cannot afford the radical Harris-Walz agenda. If we want to secure our border, minimize inflation, strengthen our military, and restore energy dominance, we must vote for Donald Trump in November. I joined “Carl Higbee Frontline” on Newsmax to discuss this further. Click here or below to watch.

If America wants to return to prosperity and real freedom. In that case, we must elect Donald Trump — Safe streets, closed borders, an inflation reduction plan that works for and not against Americans, school choice, free and fair elections, real tax reductions that build up everyone, and an America First energy agenda.

Vice President Kamala Harris’ acceptance speech at the DNC was yet another instance of empty rhetoric and partisan platitudes, void of the substance the American people care about. Whether you're a Republican or Democrat, it was impossible to miss the lack of specifics in her remarks—just more of the same political talking points we've heard for years while offering no policy solutions to our country's serious issues.

Here are some of my responses to Kamala’s address:

  • Vice President Kamala Harris’ speech at the DNC was yet another instance of empty rhetoric and partisan platitudes, void of the substance the American people care about. Whether you're a Republican or Democrat, it was impossible to miss the lack of specifics in her remarks—just more of the same political talking points we've heard for years while offering no policy solutions to our country's serious issues.

  • Vice President Harris's track record speaks for itself. From her time as Attorney General of California, where she was known for being weak on crime, to being rated the most liberal member of the U.S. Senate—more extreme than even self-proclaimed socialist Bernie Sanders—her tenure has been marked by incompetence and ineffectiveness. Her role as Vice President has been no different.

  • What was truly alarming in her speech, and throughout the entire DNC, was what wasn't discussed—the things that matter most to the American people. Harris had nothing to say about the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan despite being proud to be the last person in the room for the decision that resulted in the loss of American lives and $85 billion in military equipment being left behind. She offered no solutions on our open, broken border, which has caused fentanyl deaths to surge. There was silence on the spiraling crime rates, inflation, energy prices, and the skyrocketing cost of living—real issues hurting everyday Americans.

  • Instead, the speech was filled with relentless personal attacks on President Trump and his family, a tired tactic designed to distract from her failures. It’s appalling that they continue to mislead the American people with outright lies, such as the baseless claims that President Trump will end Social Security, implement a federal abortion ban, raise taxes on the middle class, or implement Project 2025, which neither President Trump nor I have read or endorsed. This is nothing more than fearmongering and part of their broader con to sell a false vision of a brighter future.

  • Let me be clear: these are deliberate deceptions. The Biden-Harris administration acts as though their disastrous tenure never happened, pretending that the harm they have caused over the past three and a half years isn’t real. But the American people know the truth. 

  • How often have we heard Kamala Harris say, ‘On day one…’ Why not make ‘Day One’ today? It’s because they have no actual plan to correct course.

  • The American people aren't buying it, and Pennsylvanians certainly won't be conned by the Democrats' phony promises. We need real leadership that prioritizes peace through strength, common sense, and pro-growth solutions over deception and chaos. If you want four more years of empty speeches and hollow promises, vote for Harris and her agenda. But if you want real positive change, vote for Donald Trump.

  • And let’s not forget: the media is now trying to paint Kamala Harris as some kind of moderate. This is nothing more than a biased media trying to gaslight the public. Her policies and proposals are far-left radicalism wrapped in a thin veneer of centrist rhetoric. The media doesn’t want you to believe your ‘lying eyes’ and ‘lying ears’. They don’t want you to acknowledge the hardships we’ve faced since Biden and Harris were sworn in.

  • Harris’s speech focused on abstract ideals like 'joy' and 'neighborliness,' but joy doesn’t pay the bills or keep our kids safe. Joy is a result of good governance, not a substitute for it. The reality is that under the Biden-Harris administration, the world has become more dangerous, our economy weaker, and our borders totally unsecure. And despite Harris’ claims, the world was far more peaceful under President Trump—no new wars, a strong military, and a record of peace. Under this administration, the world is like a tinder box that is already on fire. 

  • The contrast is clear: while Democrats push for ‘limitless’ government control, Republicans believe in a ‘limited’ government that empowers individuals and strengthens constitutional law. This Harris-Walz ticket’s belief that DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) should be ‘the center of everything’—from our military to our businesses—shows just how far off course their priorities are. We need leaders who will focus on America First and on creating opportunities for all individual Americans, not an endless expansion of government control.

  • In short, the Democrats want you to believe in a future built on empty government promises. But as Ronald Reagan said, 'Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem.' It’s time to vote for leaders who will solve problems like Donald Trump—not create more of them as Kamala Harris will do.

  • As this campaign continues, we cannot listen to what the candidates say but rather look at what they have done. And if we do that, the choice is clear. We must elect Donald J. Trump in November.

I joined “Mornings with Maria” on Fox Business to discuss the many policy failures of the Biden-Harris Administration, their manipulation of the jobs numbers to fit the Democrats’ fabricated narrative on the economy, and the state of the presidential race in Pennsylvania.

Along with open borders, grasp for government control of the economy, schools, society and media, the Democrat Party is also the party of abortion on demand… abortion anytime during pregnancy and, as we see at their convention, abortion in the streets… from a hot dog truck paid for by taxpayers. Never do the Democrats even mention choosing Life... instead, they are constantly pushing for abortion on demand. They are Woked out, and the American people are Fed up!

IN NEWS YOU WON’T HEAR IN THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA: Joe Biden will take the stage in Chicago and remind Americans just how much the Harris-Biden administration has failed them over the last four years. 
 
Let’s revisit some of Comrade Kamala’s greatest achievements:  

  • Over 10 million illegal immigrants have crossed the southern border.  

  • Fentanyl is now the leading cause of death for Americans aged 18 to 45, with the number killed by the drug up 94 percent since 2019. 

  • More people on the FBI terror watchlist have been arrested at the southern border this fiscal year than the previous six years combined

  • On a year-over-year basis, inflation under Harris and Biden has averaged 5.3 percent – roughly double the level of inflation seen under any of the last four administrations. 

  • Prices have risen by 20.2 percent since Harris and Biden took office – with Americans still reeling from the lasting effects of inflation. 

  • Americans have now lost over $4,562 paying higher energy costs since Harris and Biden took office. 

  • Nearly two-thirds of consumers report living paycheck-to-paycheck, up 8 points from last year. 

Kamala Harris owns all of Joe Biden’s failures. Regardless of what Biden and Harris claim, Americans know the DNC keynote speakers will be lying through their teeth.

Biden's speech reinforced that everything done in the last four years was part of the Harris-Biden agenda—a weak, failed, and dangerously liberal agenda. Electing President Donald J. Trump in November is the only way back to prosperity.

Around the District:

On Tuesday, I joined some State House GOP leadership and other great State Reps from across the state at an HRCC luncheon in Luzerne County. We must win back the majority in the State House to move forward with an agenda that truly benefits the people of Pennsylvania.

Today, I attended the Little League World Series championship game between Taiwan and Florida. This has been a fantastic tournament, and Williamsport has done another tremendous job hosting this international showcase event. My hats are off to all the organizers and volunteers for their hard work to pull this event off. Most especially, my congratulations go to all of the talented baseball players. They are tremendous young athletes. (Pictured below with Dr. Solomon Luo, his grandson Alex, his wife Wendy, and Williamsport Mayor Derek Slaughter)
