“The fact that they didn't vote on it tells me that they did a whip check, and they probably found that there were some other Republicans — besides me — that were gonna vote for this. … If there was any other reason that they canceled tomorrow's day of session, they could have had the Hegseth vote tonight.
“We're calling off Congress? And we're in the majority? … Why would we be canceling days when the country is burning? … We should stay here for every day that's on the calendar and we should debate. … I'm not playing this game. I am going to tell people what is going on up here.
“In all of this, Secretary Hegseth has acted in a manner contrary to his trust as Secretary of Defense and subversive of constitutional government, to the great prejudice of the cause of law and justice, and to the manifest injury of the people of the United States of America. … Secretary of Defense Peter Hegseth by such conduct has demonstrated that he will remain a threat to the Constitution, if allowed to remain in office.
“By engaging in hostilities in Iran for more than 90 days without congressional authorization, Secretary Hegseth is breaking the law and must be held accountable. … Secretary Hegseth's constitutional violations extend beyond the illegal war in Iran. … If we are to remain true to our oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States," Congress must not turn a blind eye to Secretary Hegseth's unconstitutional and illegal actions.
“They're canceling Congress tomorrow to avoid the vote on IMPEACHING @SecWar.

“Tuesday I tweeted Mike Johnson would recess Congress until after the election in an attempt to stymie our latest Epstein bill. Johnson went on TV adamantly saying that was STUPID and we'd work every day. Today he announced we'll recess on Sept 17… until after the election!
“It doesn't ban Flock cameras, but it says that the federal government is not going to pay for your Flock cameras if you want them.

“The federal government shouldn't provide 'security' grants to cities and police departments that have gone beyond the pale and turned their communities into a version of 1984. Federal taxpayers should not be forced to fund the surveillance state.
“It’s been a year since the president signed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, and the government continues to withhold over three million files.
“Beginning today, your congressman can sign a discharge petition to force a vote on Epstein Files Transparency Act II. EFTA II gives state AGs access to Epstein files required to prosecute perpetrators under state law, and makes it easier for survivors to sue to get their files.
“That’s why we’ve introduced the Epstein Files Transparency Act II, to bring the fight to the state courts, accountability to the Department of Justice and closure for survivors.
“Perhaps hearing these names will shame the Department of Justice into delivering justice.
“Trump’s getting roasted today for his disastrous beef policy, the debt hit $40 trillion because of his "big beautiful bill," he stepped-in-it in Iran, and he’s weeks away from failing his mid-terms in November. He posted this because we are the three he should have listened to.
“Worse than socialism! Dumping foreign beef in US markets can temporarily lower prices but it won’t incentivize American farmers to raise more beef. What a slap in the face to American cattlemen & consumers.
“So the solution of this is not to give more money to the war in Iran and more money to the farmers, and then later, more money to Iran and more money to some other industry that's crumbling because of this war. The solution is stop the war.
“A slush fund for the Iran War, and in the process add $130 billion to our debt.
