'''Warren Kenneth Paxton, Jr.''', known as '''Ken Paxton''' (born December 23, 1962), is an [[United States|American]] [[lawyer]] and [[politician]] who has been since January 2015 the [[conservative]] [[Republican Party|Republican]] attorney general of his adopted state of [[Texas]].

Paxton won renomination to a third term in the Republican [[primary]] runoff held on May 24, 2022, when he handily defeated the outgoing state Land Commissioner [[George P. Bush]], the son of the [[Moderate Republican]] former [[Florida]] [[Governor]] [[Jeb Bush]] and uncle of the Moderate Republican former [[U.S. President]] [[George W. Bush]]. In the 2022 runoff, Paxton polled 630,064 votes (68 percent) to Bush's 297,025 (32 percent). Paxton now faces the challenge from [[liberal]] [[Democratic Party|Democrat]] attorney general nominee Rochelle Mercedes Garza, a former attorney with the [[American Civil Liberties Union]] from [[Brownsville]] who graduated from [[Brown University]] in [[Providence]], [[Rhode Island]] and then obtained her law degree in 2011 from the University of Houston.

In the primary held on March 1, 2022, former State Supreme Court Justice Eva Guzman and outgoing [[U.S. Representative]] [[Louie Gohmert]] of [[Tyler, Texas|Tyler]] finished in third and fourth place, respectively.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/louie-gohmert-republican-lawmaker-who-downplayed-the-insurrection-wants-to-be-the-top-law-enforcement-officer-in-texas/ar-AAR1jMm?ocid=msedgntp|title=Louie Gohmert: Republican lawmaker who downplayed the insurrection wants to be the top law enforcement officer in Texas|publisher=msn.com|date=November 23, 2021|author=Devan Cole|accessdate=November 24, 2021}}</ref>

==Personal life==

Paxton was born in Minot, [[North Dakota]], to a military family that lived at times in five states. He graduated from [[Baylor University]] in [[Waco, Texas|Waco]], Texas, and the [[University of Virginia]] School of Law in Charlottesville, [[Virginia]].

He resides in McKinney in Collin County with his wife, [[Angela Paxton]], whom he met at Baylor and who is also his political advisor and a current Texas state senator. The couple has four children and are members of [[Prestonwood Baptist Church]] in Plano.

==Career==

In 2014, Paxton won election as attorney general with support from [[conservative]]s and the [[Tea Party Movement]]. In the Republican primary, he defeated state Representative Dan H. Branch of [[Dallas]], a director of the John Goodwin Tower Center for Political Studies at [[Southern Methodist University]], named for [[John Tower]], Texas first popularly-elected Republican senator, who began his career as a staunch conservative but is now considered an icon of [[Moderate Republican]]s.

Before he became attorney general, Paxton previously served for ten years in the Texas House of Representatives and two years in the Texas Senate, representing Collin County, north of Dallas.

During much of his tenure as attorney general, Paxton has been sidetracked by personal legal matters. He faces a fraud trial in [[Houston, Texas|Houston]] in December 2017 for having allegedly failed to inform those investing in the technology firm Servergy that he was receiving a commission on sales. At the time, Paxton was still a member of the Texas House of Representatives. The case will be presided over by a [[Democratic Party|Democratic]] judge, Robert Johnson.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Texas-AG-Paxton-to-stand-trial-in-December-judge-11549166.php|author=Cindy George and Andrea Zelinski|title=Texas AG Paxton to stand trial in December, judge rules|publisher=''The Houston Chronicle''|date=July 27, 2017|accessdate=October 1, 2017}}</ref> Meanwhile, a Security and Exchange Commission complaint against Paxton has been twice dismissed, most recently in March 2017, on the grounds that the attorney general had "no plausible legal duty" to inform investors that he would earn a commission if they purchased stock in a technical company that Paxton represented.<ref name=december>Andrea Zelinski, "Paxton's SEC charge dismissed: No 'legal duty' to disclose commission," ''San Antonio Express-News'', March 3, 2017, p. A3.</ref>

As attorney general, Paxton has fought to keep alive from federal court challenges the state laws requiring proper voter identification, the abolition of [[sanctuary cities]], religious freedom, and the current congressional districting plan, which Democrats claim is [[gerrymander]]ed to favor Republicans. On June 25, 2018, the [[United States Supreme Court]] decided 5–4, that the district lines were drawn in "good faith" in 2013 by Texas state legislators. However, one state House district was invalidated. Democrats claim that the growth of Texas occurs primarily in minority areas, but minorities do not receive equal representation in how legislative lines are drafted.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/supreme-court-upholds-most-texas-election-districts-over-charges-of-racial-discrimination/ar-AAz9uhb?ocid=spartanntp|title=Supreme Court upholds most Texas election districts over charges of racial discrimination|publisher=Msn.com|accessdate=June 25, 2018}}</ref>

Paxton's trial was scheduled to have begun on December 11, 2017, coincidentally the last day that he could file as a candidate for re-nomination in the Republican primary on March 6, 2018. If convicted, he could face huge fines and 99 years imprisonment.<ref name=december/> However, the trial has yet to begin and may not happen until after the November 6 general election in which Paxton is a candidate for a second term. Before Paxton can face the fraud charges, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, the state's highest criminal court, must decide if the prosecutors in the case are being overpaid. After its summer recess, the appeals court will issue an opinion regarding the pay for the prosecutors in September at the earliest. So the Paxton trial could be delayed until 2019.<ref>"Justice Delayed", ''Texas Monthly'', July 3, 2018.</ref>

Paxton also faces an expanded probe by the state into his $546,700 defense fund, contributions of which have come mainly from family friends. The state did not reveal what it has found in this probe.<ref>Andrea Zelinski, "Prosecutors' AG probe expands: Paxton's legal defense fund under scrutiny, federal judge is told," ''The San Antonio Express-News,'' October 6, 2017, pp. A3-A4.</ref>

In 2017, Paxton came to [[Laredo]] to investigate city and county efforts toward border security. He indicated that he was impressed by the coordination among law enforcement agencies" "So often you see turf battle among different law enforcement groups ... and it seems like here the state is very engaged ... but so are all the local officials and the federal officials. So the cooperation is about as good as I've ever seen."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.lmtonline.com/local/politics/article/Texas-Attorney-General-Ken-Paxton-visits-Laredo-12238147.php|title=Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton visits Laredo for first time since taking office|author=Julia Wallace|publisher=''Laredo Morning Times''|date=September 28, 2017|accessdate=February 16, 2018}}</ref>

==2018 reelection race==

Paxton was unopposed in the Republican primary held on March 6, 2018. He received 1,312,135 votes.<ref name=ereturns>{{cite web|url=https://enrpages.sos.state.tx.us/public/mar06_325_state.htm?x=0&y=1394&id=142|title=Election Returns|date=March 6, 2018|publisher=Texas Secretary of State|accessdate=March 7, 2018}}</ref> In the November 6 general election, he defeated Democrat Justin Nelson, an [[Austin]] lawyer who garnered 884,376 votes running unopposed in the Democratic primary.

Until late October, Paxton largely ignored Nelson's challenge and refused to engage in debates with his mostly unknown opponent. Then Paxton issued an advertisement in which he contends that Nelson is an "extreme liberal".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.lmtonline.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Attorney-General-Ken-Paxton-launches-first-attack-13337641.php?utm_campaign=hptexas|title=Attorney General Ken Paxton launches first attack ad, calls opponent an "extreme liberal"|publisher=''The Laredo Morning Times''|author=Andrea Zelinski|date=October 26, 2018|accessdate=October 26, 2018}}</ref>

Meanwhile, Mrs. Paxton won the Republican nomination for the state Senate District 8 seat being vacated by Republican [[Van Taylor]] of [[Plano]], the [[U.S. Representative]]-elect for Texas' 3rd congressional district seat held by the retiring long-term Republican, Sam Johnson.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.texastribune.org/2017/09/06/angela-paxton-attorney-generals-wife-running-state-senate/|title=Angela Paxton, Texas attorney general's wife, running for state Senate|date=September 6, 2017|publisher=''The Texas Tribune''|accessdate=October 7, 2017}}</ref> Angela Paxton received 32,653 votes (54.4 percent); her intra-party opponent, Phillip Huffines, 27,421 (45.6 percent)<ref name=ereturns/> In the general election she defeated the Democrat Mark Phariss while her husband defeated Justin Nelson. Phariss had only narrowly won his party nomination over Bryan Chaput, 51-49 percent.

Paxton won a second term as attorney general in the general election held on November 6, 2018. In a close contest, he defeated Nelson, 4,173,538 (50.6 percent) to 3,874,096 (47 percent).<ref>{{cite web|url=https://enrpages.sos.state.tx.us/public/nov06_331_state.htm?x=0&y=0&id=545|title=Election Returns|date=November 6, 2018|publisher=Texas Secretary of State|accessdate=November 7, 2018}}</ref>

==Motor voter issue==

In April 2018, Paxton appealed a ruling from U.S. District Judge Orlando L. Garcia, a liberal from San Antonio, ordering the state to comply with the national [[Motor Voter Act]]. Garcia signaled prior to his actual ruling that he agrees with the Civil Rights Project which claims that Texas treats motor voter registrations differently from regular registrations.<ref name=jeremyw/> Voters who change their driver's license addresses in person automatically get information on voter registration changes, but those who conduct the transaction online must print out a form and mail it to their new county elections officer, an additional requirement many prospective voters decline to pursue.<ref name=makingvotingeasier/> A Paxton aide said that he believes the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeal in Houston "will not give merit to such judicial activism because Texas voter registration is consistent with federal voter laws. We look forward to filing an appeal."<ref name=jeremyw>{{cite web|url=https://www.lmtonline.com/news/politics/texas/article/Texas-AG-itching-to-appeal-Motor-Voter-ruling-12810391.php?utm_campaign=hptexas|title=Texas AG itching to appeal to appeal Motor Voter ruling: Final ruling from a federal judge is in the works|publisher=''The Houston Chronicle'', accessed from ''The Laredo Morning Times'' on-line|author=Jeremy Wallace|date=April 5, 2018|accessdate=April 6, 2018}}</ref> The Fifth Circuit set aside Judge Garcia's ruling pending a full appeal on the merits of the case. The matter may not be resolved by the time of the November 6 general election.<ref name=makingvotingeasier>"State could make voting much easier" (commentary), ''The San Antonio Express-News'', June 1, 2018, p. A12.</ref>

Paxton's opponent Justin Nelson sided with the district judge and the Civil Rights Project: "It is offensive and dangerous for the Office of Attorney General to attack a judge personally. Just as offensive, Ken Paxton is trying to make it more difficult to register to vote than it is to renew a driver's license on-line. ... We should make it easier to vote, not harder."<ref name=jeremyw/> ''The San Antonio Express-News'' argued that Paxton has made it more difficult for voters to register: "Voter apathy is a big problem in our state. Every election season there is a big push to register more people so they can cast a ballot to offset the pitiful turnout at the polls. Yet here we have civic-minded people who are making the effort to register to vote, but we won't grant them the convenience of changing their [voter] address online. The state should be making it easier -- not harder --for people to register."<ref name=makingvotingeasier/>

Just three weeks before the 2018 general election, Paxton confirmed that voter fraud charges had been filed against four Hispanic women accused of participation in 2016 in an organized ring that focused upon elderly residents in the Fort Worth area to use those senior citizens to generate forged mail-in ballots, many of which were for Democratic candidates. Paxton accuses the women of "assisting" the senior citizens to monitor their choices of candidates or filling out the ballots and having the voter sign the mail-in ballot.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theblaze.com/news/2018/10/16/authorities-charge-organized-ring-with-voter-fraud-for-generating-forged-ballots-many-for-democrats|title=Authorities charge organized ring with voter fraud for generating forged ballots, many for Democratic candidates|publisher=Theblaze.com|accessdate=October 16, 2018|accessdate=October 18, 2018}}</ref>

==Indictment of African-American sheriff==

In June 2018, Paxton announced the [[felony]] indictment of Zena Annette Collins Stephens (born July 4, 1965), a Democrat and the first [[African American]] to serve as a sheriff in Texas. Elected in Jefferson County (Beaumont) in southeastern Texas in 2016, Stephens defeated two male Anglo opponents, who are charged with misdemeanors - allegedly accepting cash campaign contributions in excess of the legal limit. Stephens also faces the two misdemeanor charges and an additional felony offense of “tampering with a government record.” She did file an amended campaign finance report. Stephens' attorney, Audwin Samuel, said that the charge against his client is "a technical violation of the lengthy and complex election code in spite of her trying to cure that violation once she became aware of its existence. As the community will learn, Sherriff Stephens had no criminal intent in her actions."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://kfdm.com/news/local/sheriff-zena-stephens-two-former-candidates-indicted-on-campaign-contribution-violations|title=Sheriff Zena Stephens, two former candidates, indicted on campaign contribution violations|publisher=KFDM.com|author=Scott Lawrence|accessdate=June 6, 2018}}</ref>

==Questioning human sexuality programs in public schools==

In June 2018, Paxton asked by letter that the [[Fort Worth]] Independent School District provide him a copy of its human sexuality curriculum. The district has refused to share the curriculum with parents, and students are not allowed to bring course materials home or photograph the contents. Paxton argued that:
<blockquote>
Parents have the right to inspect and review information regarding what their child is learning and participating in while attending school. … By law, public school curriculum should be fully available to the public, and parents retain their constitutional right to direct their own child's upbringing. Denying parental and public access to curriculum of any kind is a clear violation the Texas Education Code.<ref name=sexuality>{{cite web|url=
https://www.lmtonline.com/news/education/article/Texas-attorney-general-asks-Fort-Worth-ISD-to-13035434.php?utm_campaign=hptexas|title=Texas AG asks Fort Worth ISD to hand over human sexuality curriculum|publisher=''Laredo Morning Times''|author=Shelby Webb|date=June 28, 2018|accessdate=June 29, 2018}}</ref></blockquote>

ISD spokesman Clint Bond said that Paxton's allegations have been exaggerated. The books are part of a classroom set and cannot be taken home by the students in order to prevent them from being lost, stolen, or damaged. Bond said he recalls one email from a disgruntled parent. Bond added that parents can visit their child's school to view the material: "This wasn't something anyone was trying to hide."<ref name=sexuality/>

==Siding with liberal Democratic county judge==
In the summer of 2020, Paxton's long-time conservative credentials came under scrutiny when he wrote a trial court asking that a suit filed in [[Houston, Texas|Houston]] by Dr. Steven F. Hotze, executive director of the group, Conservative Republican, be dismissed for lack of standing and jurisdiction. Hotze challenged the designation "non-essential businesses" used during the [[coronavirus]] pandemic by Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo, who has ruined many businesses with her directives. Hotze even questioned the conservative credentials of Governor [[Greg Abbott]], who declined at the time to call the state legislature in special session to address the matter of pandemic closures.<ref>Dr. Steven F. Hotze,

He supported removing Liz Cheney as the House Republican Conference chairman.<ref>https://mobile.twitter.com/RonnyJacksonTX/status/1392477652976644101</ref>

Representative Jackson has long called for a cognitive test for [[U.S. President]] [[Joe Biden]], who has thus far spurned such calls.

'''Addison 'Joe' Graves Wilson, Sr.''' (born July 31, 1947) is a [[Republican]] politician from the state of [[South Carolina]]. He currently serves in the [[House of Representatives]], representing South Carolina's Second Congressional District. Wilson obtained the rank of Colonel in the U.S. Army.

==Early life==

Wilson was born on July 31, 1947, in Charleston, South Carolina. He received his undergraduate degree from Washington & Lee University in 1969 and his J.D. from the University of South Carolina in 1972. He served in the U.S. Army Reserves from 1972–1975.<ref>http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=w000795</ref>

==Political career==

From an early age, Wilson has been actively involved in politics as a member of the Republican Party. He served on the campaigns of Senator Strom Thurmond and Congressman Floyd Spence. In 1981, Wilson was appointed Deputy General Counsel for the Department of Energy. Subsequently, Wilson served in the South Carolina state senate from 1984–2001.<ref>http://www.joewilson.house.gov/</ref> On December 18, 2001, Wilson was elected to the 107th Congress by special election, filling the seat held by Floyd Spence until his death. He has since been reelected to each of the four succeeding Congresses.<ref>http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=w000795</ref>

Wilson's son. [[Alan Wilson]], is currently the [[Attorney General]] of [[South Carolina]].
==Obama's Address to Congress==

In a September 9, 2009 healthcare reform address to Congress, Joe Wilson shouted out "You lie" while Obama was giving a speech declaring illegal aliens were not covered under healthcare reform legislation.<ref>[http://voices.washingtonpost.com/capitol-briefing/2009/09/scs_wilson_rakes_in_750000_in.html S.C.'s Wilson Rakes In $750,000 in Less Than 48 Hours; Opponent Tops $1 Million, Washington Post, September 11, 2009]</ref>
Radio America talk-radio host Rodger Hedgecock indicated that Wilson was right.<ref>[https://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=109973 Obama to make illegals eligible for health care]</ref>

Wilson apologized for letting his emotions get the best of him. Democrats were livid by his actions but chose not censure him; however, it was leaked that Democrats planned to introduce a resolution of disapproval.<ref>[https://www.newsmax.com/insidecover/us_health_care_heckling/2009/09/14/260044.html Democrats Plan to Move Against Joe Wilson Tuesday, NewsMax.com, September 14, 2009]</ref>

Since that incident, Americans rallied around Joe Wilson having donated more than $1,000,000 to his campaign for reelection despite online attacks from liberal hackers.<ref>[https://www.foxnews.com/politics/elections/2009/09/13/hackers-imperil-wilson-campaign-web-site/ Hackers Imperil Wilson Campaign Web Site, FoxNews, September 13, 2009]</ref> Despite [[Democrat]]s' fake outrage, Wilson's Democratic opponent has managed to raise a million dollars as well since the 9th, though public did not contribute nearly as much to his campaign as the public contributed to Congressman Wilson's reelection campaign.

Wilson says his initial apology was enough.

Higgins, born in [[New Orleans]], is a former law enforcement officer from St. Landry Parish (Opelousas) who gained national attention for his aggressive Crime Stoppers [[video]]s.

==Background==

Some of Higgins' Crime Stoppers skits have been carried on [[NBC]]'s ''The Tonight Show'', starring Jimmy Fallon.<ref name=cajunjohnwayne/> Though he has been accused by the [[interest group]], the [[American Civil Liberties Union]], of bias against lawbreakers, whom Higgins has dubbed "animals," "thugs," and "heathens."<ref name=lafyadv>{{cite web|url=http://www.theadvertiser.com/story/news/2016/05/05/clay-higgins-says-he-may-run-congress-senate/83979304/|title=Clay Higgins to announce run for public office tonight|author=Seth Dickerson|publisher=''The Lafayette Advertiser''|date=May 18, 2016|accessdate=July 11, 2016}}</ref> With a "country bumpkin drill-sergeant persona," Higgins emphasizes that his focus is on criminals.<ref name=cajunjohnwayne/> One of the videos features an outraged Higgins threatening the burglar who broke into a popular restaurant in Opelousas. Clarence Lazard, an [[African-American]] [[Baptist]] pastor who supports Higgins' videos, describes Higgins as "a unique gentleman who's not scared to say what he thinks." Though he is often referred to as a [[Cajun]], Higgins is actually of [[Ireland|Irish]] descent.<ref name=cajunjohnwayne>"Cajun John Wayne seeks U.S. House seat", ''The San Antonio Express-News'', [[San Antonio]], [[Texas]], July 3, 2016, p. A25</ref>

Controversy over the videos led Higgins to resign as a captain under St. Landry Parish Sheriff Bobby Joseph Guidroz (born April 1954), a [[Democrat]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://voterportal.sos.la.gov/Home/Home?uid=441885|title=Bobby Guidroz, April 1954|publisher=Louisiana Secretary of State|accessdate=July 11, 2016}}</ref> Higgins then became a deputy marshal for the city of Lafayette and conducts extensive lecturing on law and order issues.<ref name=cajunjohnwayne/>

Higgins lives in Port Barre in St. Landry Parish with his third wife, Rebecca Lee Wynn "Becca" Higgins (born November 25, 1976).

==2016 congressional race==

Higgins is a former car salesman.<ref name=salon/> On December 10, 2016, he defeated in a runoff the Moderate Republican [[Scott Angelle]], a former Louisiana Public Service Commissioner, in their contest for the 3rd congressional district U.S. House seat. The incumbent representative, [[Moderate Republican]] Charles Boustany, a retired [[physician]] from Lafayette, gave up the seat in an unsuccessful bid for the [[United States Senate]] in the November 8 primary election. Victory in the Senate race went to state Treasurer [[John Neely Kennedy]], who won the right to succeed the retiring incumbent senator and fellow Republican, [[David Vitter]].

Higgins espouses a [[conservative]] political stance in which he urges the public to:

<blockquote>

set aside your differences, stand together as one nation under [[God]] and as one people beneath the glory of one flag, to stand as a nation reborn. ...[American is in] grave peril [from overseas and from] the elected and appointed elitist few who have seized power in [[Washington, D.C.|Washington]] and squandered our wealth, mortgaged our children's futures and betrayed our trust.<ref name=lafyadv/></blockquote>

Higgins' campaign hit a snag in October 2016, when ''[[Salon Media Group|Salon]]'', the [[Internet]] magazine, reported that he used his former position in the St. Landry Parish sheriff's department to launch private business deals while on public employment. Prior to the disclosure, Higgins had been running second to Scott Angelle in the preliminary congressional polls.<ref name=salon>{{cite web|url=https://www.salon.com/2016/10/02/uniform-misconduct-inside-the-rise-and-possible-fall-of-the-cajun-john-wayne-gop-congressional-candidate-clay-higgins/|title=Uniform misconduct: Inside the rise and possible fall of 'The Cajun John Wayne', GOP congressional candidate Clay Higgins|author=Zack Kopplin|publisher=[[Salon Media Group|Salon.com]]|accessdate=October 4, 2016}}</ref>

In the primary held in conjunction with the presidential election in which [[Donald Trump]] easily carried the Louisiana [[electoral vote]], Angelle led a 12-candidate field with 91,374 votes (28.6 percent). Higgins trailed in second place with 84,809 ballots (26.5 percent). Finishing third was the Democrat Jacob "Dorian Phibian" Hebert, with 28,358 votes (8.9 percent). In seventh place was the Republican former state Representative [[Brett Geymann]] of Lake Charles, with 21,606 (6.8 percent).<ref>{{cite web|url=https://voterportal.sos.la.gov/Static#/2016-11-08/resultsRace/Congressional|title=Election Returns|date=November 8, 2016|publisher=Louisiana Secretary of State|accessdate=November 9, 2016}}</ref> Higgins trailed Angelle by 6,624 votes out of 320,434 cast in the 12-man field.<ref name=childsupport/>

As Higgins headed into the runoff contest with Angelle, his second former wife, Rosemary “Stormy” Rothkamm Hambrice (born June 17, 1969), from whom he was divorced in 1999, filed a $140,826 suit against him for nonpayment of child support for their children, now all adults. The suit contends that Higgins halted child-support payments in Marcb 2005, when the youngest child was ten years of age. A judge in Orange County, [[Texas]], directed Higgins to begin paying Hambrice $1,289 per month.<ref name=childsupport>{{cite web|url=http://www.theadvocate.com/acadiana/news/politics/elections/article_cebe9e74-a860-11e6-a359-97e4a64fbd9f.html?sr_source=lift_amplify|title=Clay Higgins, in runoff for 3rd District seat, faces child support lawsuit from former wife|publisher=''Baton Rouge Morning Advocate''|date=November 11, 2016|accessdate=November 13, 2016}}</ref> Higgins said he paid the $1,289 in child support until 2005, when his income was reduced after he became a full-time law-enforcement officer. Higgins added that he continues to help two of his grown children with housing and transportation expenses. Higgins claims that Hambrice, a paralegal, is a friend of Scott Angelle, whom Higgins faced in the congressional runoff. She did not bring suit until Higgins entered the runoff election, he added.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.facebook.com/captclayhiggins/|title=Child Support?|publisher=[[Facebook]]|date=November 15, 2016|accessdate=November 16, 2016}}</ref>

Higgins went to [[Washington, D.C.]], on a campaign fund-raising trip that coincided with orientation of new House members. He attended an orientation dinner but said that he was not assuming that he will defeat Angelle in the runoff contest. "I am here to raise money and for people to vet me. I'm meeting with people who need to shake my hand and look into my eyes and into my heart," he said.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thenewsstar.com/story/news/2016/11/16/premature-orientation-higgins-says-hes-dc-raise-money-not-mingle/93953264/|title=Premature orientation?

A Trump supporter, Higgins carried the backing of the Lafayette-based talk radio host [[Moon Griffon]], a long-term critic of both Angelle and Angelle's campaign manager, [[Timmy Teepell]], a former aide to former Governor [[Bobby Jindal]].

Higgins trailed Angelle in fund-raising; he amassed $280,966 through December 1, 2016, compared to Angelle's $1.63 million. From October 20 to November 20, Angelle raised $281,276; Higgins, $99,345. As of November 20, Angelle had $412,806 on hand; Higgins, $34,104, according to a campaign finance report posted by the [[Federal Election Commission]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.shreveporttimes.com/story/news/2016/12/01/angelle-cash-king-3rd-district-race-but-higgins-gets-most-bang-buck/94724428/|title=Angelle cash king in 3rd District race, but Higgins gets most bang for buck|author=Greg Hilburn|publisher=''The Shreveport Times''|date=December 1, 2016|access date=December 2, 2016}}</ref>

Runoff returns gave Higgins votes 77,670 votes (56 percent) to Angelle's 60,760 (44 percent). Higgins ran strongly throughout the district, particularly Acadia, Iberia, St. Landry, and St. Mary parishes but lost Calcasieu (Lake Charles) and Cameron parishes and finished with a near tie in St. Martin Parish.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://voterportal.sos.la.gov/Graphical

In 2017, Sohail Ahmed Rana (born January 27, 1968) of Lafayette, in a "cursing" call from Fort Garland in Costilla County, [[Colorado]], to Higgins' Lafayette office, threatened the life of the congressman. On July 5, 2018, he pleaded guilty before U. S. District Judge Dee D. Drell to one count of threats by interstate communications. Rana faces sentencing on October 9; Drell could sentence him to five years in prison, one year of supervised release, and a $250,000 fine.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.katc.com/story/38589379/lafayette-man-admits-to-threatening-clay-higgins|publisher=KATC of [[Lafayette]], Louisiana|title=Lafayette man admits to threatening Clay Higgins|date=July 6, 2018|accessdate=July 6, 2018}}</ref>

==2018 re-election bid==

On November 6, 2018, Higgins in a field of seven candidates, defeated fellow Republican [[Josh Guillory]], a [[Lafayette]] lawyer who served in the [[United States Army]] in [[Operation Iraqi Freedom]]. Guillory carries the endorsement of President Trump's attorney, [[Rudy Giuliani]], the former [[mayor]] of [[New York City]]. Giuliani backs Guillory because Giuliani's paramour, Jennifer LeBlanc, left the employment of Representative Higgins, reportedly on good terms, but she opposes the congressman's re-election. Giuliani and LeBlanc hosted a fund-raiser for Guillory, who lambasted Higgins as "a phony and a hypocrite," having cited Higgins' vote to raise the [[Federal Debt Limit|debt ceiling]]. "At some point, we have to take fiscal responsibility seriously. I will not vote to increase our national debt. We have got to get our spending under control." Guillory claims that Higgins has put party politics above his constituents.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/news/politics/elections/article_32ae7c1a-8d25-11e8-ba7b-3b790348324c.html|title=A day with one-of-a-kind U. S. Rep. Clay Higgins: 'Dog the Bounty Hunter', motorcycles, tattoos, more|publisher=''The Baton Rouge Advocate''|date=July 21, 2018|author=Elizabeth Crisp|accessdate=July 25, 2018}}</ref>

Trump, however, remains committed to Higgins, who has been highly supportive of the president's [[MAGA]] agenda. Higgins said that he was confident that he could defeat Guillory or the five other opponents seeking the position.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/news/politics/article_b320e976-74e5-11e8-9f51-f75c8096273c.html|title=Trump endorses Higgins after Giuliani backs opponent his girlfriend works for|publisher=''The Baton Rouge Advocate''|date=June 20, 2018|accessdate=June 22, 2018}}</ref>

In addition to Josh Guillory, Higgins faced two Democratic challengers in the November 6 nonpartisan blanket primary for his second term in Congress. Rob Anderson of DeQuincy in Calcasieu Parish, a freelance author, claims that Higgins "crossed the line" in a video about the [[Holocaust]] filmed in a gas chamber at the [[Auschwitz]] concentration camp in [[Nazi]]-occupied [[Poland]]. Former U.S. Magistrate Mildred Ellen "Mimi" Methvin (born October 24, 1952), a [[liberal]], ridiculed Higgins as "less Cajun John Wayne and more Cajun Barney Fife," a reference to the 1960-1968 [[CBS]] [[television]] series, ''The Andy Griffith Show.'' Methvin, who carried the official endorsement of the Louisiana Democratic Executive Committee,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.thetowntalk.com/story/news/2018/08/20/see-who-la-democrats-pinned-their-hopes-loosen-gop-grip/1041200002/|author=Greg Hilburn|publisher=''[[Alexandria Town Talk]]''|date=August 20, 2018|title=See who Louisiana Democrats pinned their hopes on|accessdate=August 21, 2018}}</ref> argues that Higgins casts votes for the Trump agenda that are in conflict with the interests of hard-pressed constituents in the district.<ref>{{cite web|url=

Methvin, Jr.]]; her paternal grandmother, [[Myrtis Methvin|Myrtis Lucille Gregory Methvin]], was the second woman [[mayor]] in Louisiana in rural Castor in Bienville Parish; the first woman mayor in the state was the [[Methodist]] [[clergy]]woman [[Lula Wardlow]] in Montgomery in Grant Parish. Methvin's grandfather, William Peyton Cunningham, Sr. (1901-1971), represented Natchitoches Parish in the state House of Representatives from 1932 to 1940.

Two [[African-American]] candidates also challenged Higgins. Verone Thomas of [[Lake Charles]], a [[United States Navy]] veteran and [[business]]man, said that the 3rd District is "sinking, and we need someone to patch the hole and guide us in the right direction." Larry Rader, an insurance agent from New Iberia who previously sought the seat, ran again. After polling 9 percent of the ballots cast in 2016, Rader then endorsed Higgins in the runoff against Scott Angelle. Rader vowed to focus on diversification of the Louisiana economy and claims Higgins has not met the expectations Rader had for him in the previous runoff.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.thenewsstar.com/story/news/2018/07/19/higgins-qualifies-re-election-trumps-blessing-via-tweet/799549002/|title="Higgins qualifies for re-election with Trump's blessing"|author=Greg Hilburn|date=July 19, 2018|publisher=''[[Monroe News Star]]''|accessdate=July 20, 2018}}</ref>

In July 2018, Higgins said that he was "surprised and disturbed" that many of his Democratic colleagues voted "Present" on a non-binding House resolution to voice support for the federal [[Immigration and Customs Enforcement]] agency, which has come under attack from liberals who claim agents have engaged in discriminatory treatment of [[illegal alien]]s. Higgins said that abolition of ICE would "only help those that ICE opposes, including drug dealers, human traffickers, and [[Terrorism|terrorists]]."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://clayhiggins.house.gov/media/in-the-news/gop-rep-surprised-disturbed-see-so-many-dems-vote-present-resolution-supporting|title=GOP Rep: 'Surprised' & 'Disturbed' to See So Many Dems Vote 'Present' on Resolution Supporting ICE|publisher=Clayhiggins.yhouse.gov|date=July 19, 2018|accessdate=August 23, 2018}}</ref>

Though he had first expressed hesitance about the potential impact of retaliatory [[tariff]]s by [[China]] on American agricultural products, Higgins said in August 2018 that he is encouraged by Trump's trade policies and expects farmers to reap ultimate benefit from the tariffs.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.thenewsstar.com/story/news/2018/08/22/rep-higgins-trump-america-winning-trade-war/1050452002/|title=Rep.

A [[Republican]], his district is based only in Coffee County in the southeastern portion of the state.

In the [[2018 Midterms]], Moore waged an unsuccessful<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/elections/results/alabama-house-district-2-primary-election Alabama Primary Election Results: Second House District]. ''The New York Times''. Retrieved January 2, 2021.</ref> [[primary election]] challenge to incumbent [[Martha Roby]] in Alabama's 2nd congressional district seat, which includes the capital city of [[Montgomery]]. However, he successfully ran for the seat in the [[2020 U.S. House elections]] when Roby retired, and took office on January 3, 2021 as United States Representative.

==Education and personal life==
Moore graduated from Enterprise High School and attended Enterprise State Junior College. In 1992, he received a Bachelor of Science degree from Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama. He served in the [[United States Army]] National Guard. In 2003, he established Barry Moore Industries, a waste-management company in Enterprise. He is a Sunday school teacher and former [[deacon]] at Hillcrest [[Baptist]] Church in Enterprise.

==Alabama House of Representatives==
In 2010, Moore unseated the [[Democrat]] incumbent representative for District 91, Terry Spicer, 9,754 votes (64.4 percent) to 5,383 (35.6 percent). In 2014, he defeated Joshua Pipkin in the Republican House primary, 3,905 (55.5 percent) to 3,136 (44.5 percent), and was then unopposed in the November 4 [[general election]].<ref name=ballotpedia>{{cite web|url=https://ballotpedia.org/Barry_Moore|title=Barry Moore|publisher=Ballotpedia.org|accessdate=October 24, 2017}}</ref>

On April 24, 2014, Moore was arrested in a corruption probe conducted by the office of then state Attorney General [[Luther Strange]], subsequently the interim [[U.S. Senator]]. Moore was charged with two counts of [[felony]] [[perjury]] and two counts of providing false statements to a special [[grand jury]] in Lee County. He denied all charges, which he termed "baseless," and went to trial. On October 30, 2014, a trial jury found Moore not guilty of all counts. Had he been convicted, he would have been removed from the legislature and faced up to ten years of imprisonment and levied a $15,000 fine for each of the four counts. On October 30, a jury found Moore not guilty of all charges.<ref name=ballotpedia/>

Moore was the chairman of the House Military and Veterans' Affairs Committee and sat on two other panels as well: (1) Commerce and Small Business and (2) Education Policy.<ref name=pvs/>

In 2013, Representative Moore voted to establish health care standards for [[abortion]] facilities in Alabama. In 2014, he co-sponsored the bill to prohibit abortion after the detection of the heartbeat of the unborn child. He voted to permit display of the [[Ten Commandments]] on public property, a measure which passed the House, 77–19. He supported drug testing for certain recipients of the public welfare system. In 2015, Moore sponsored legislation affirming the use of electrocution in executions. He voted to establish public [[charter school]]s in Alabama, a measure which passed the House, 58–41. He supported the bill to permit the home schooled to participate in public school athletic events, a measure approved by the full House, 52–43. He opposed the increase the cigarette tax, which passed the House, 52–46. In 2016, Moore supported legislation to forbid the sale of fetal tissue or to permit its use in research, and he opposed dilation abortions in Alabama. He did not vote on the bill to increase funding for new prison facilities, a measure which passed the House, 52–33. In 2017, he opposed allowing midwives to practice in his state, a measure which still won House approval, 84–11. He supported reducing the time for appeals from inmates on death row. He voted to prohibit alteration or removal of historic monuments, which passed the House, 72–29.

Russell Fry is a [[South Carolina]] legislator who is running, along with 10 other challengers, to unseat Rep. [[Tom Rice]] in [[South Carolina]] House District 7. The [[GOP]] primary is on June 14, 2022.<ref>https://ballotpedia.org/Russell_Fry</ref> The best [[conservative]] candidate in the race is Mark McBride.<ref>https://markmcbride.us/index.html</ref>

Fry, considered to be merely a moderate by local [[conservatives]], voted for a rewriting of the [[U.S. Constitution]] by an Article V Convention, misnamed the [[Convention of States]]. This "horrible idea," as Justice Scalia called the proposal for an Article V Convention, is overwhelmingly opposed by [[grassroots]] [[conservatives]]. Fry cast his vote during the passage of this resolution in late March 2022 after he received an endorsement by [[Donald Trump]] for the different reason of trying to unseat Rep. Rice.

:''Majorie Taylor Greene was [[Conservative of the Year 2021|Conservative of the Year]] in 2021.
'''Marjorie Taylor Greene''', or '''MTG''', (born May 27, 1974) is an anti-establishment [[conservative]] [[Republican]] congresswoman for the state of [[Georgia]] in the [[U.S. House of Representatives]]. She attracts massive rallies of supporters as Trump does, and her comments are highly entertaining as Trump's are. Despite being targeted by the [[Leftism|Left]] for defeat, Rep. Greene won her primary by a nearly record-breaking 70-15% margin in 2022. In August 2022, she filed Articles of Impeachment against Attorney General Merrick Garland, for approving the unjustified raid on [[Donald Trump]]'s home.

On November 17, 2022, after winning reelection by a landslide, Rep. Greene held a press conference announcing her new legislation to cut off continued funding-without-accountability for the [[Russia Ukraine War]].<ref>https://www.cnn.com/europe/live-news/russia-ukraine-war-news-11-17-22/h_d2025cea3fa6bd2fb2f295211148a750</ref> Some reports are that some of that money may have flowed back illegally into [[Dem]] campaign efforts in the [[2022 midterm elections]]. As Rep. Greene's leadership in the [[House]] grows, she becomes a possible pick as vice president for [[Trump]] in 2024, to win her home state of [[Georgia]] for the national ticket.

MTG, as she is known, is a staunch supporter of the [[Second Amendment]] and a principled opponent of [[infanticide]] and [[abortion]]; she opposes [[Democrat]]-sponsored terrorism such as [[Antifa]] and [[BLM]]. She has an immense following in [[Georgia]] and nationwide, and is prolific with her daily postings on [[Telegram]]. She has virtually singlehandedly neutralized the [[Leftist]] agenda of [[Nancy Pelosi]] and [[The Squad]] in the [[House of Representatives]]. Rep. Greene has also led the criticism of the "[[DC Gulag]]," a term she coined, and its biased [[Opposition to Donald Trump|Anti-Trump]] warden. Rep. Greene leads in opposing [[liberal censorship]] on [[social media]].

Rep. Greene is an outspoken supporter of [[Donald Trump]], both when he was president and during the sham [[impeachment and removal|impeachment]] attempt against him in early 2021.

Not long after assuming office, Greene was stripped of her committee assignments by Democrats and [[RINO]]s in the House of Representatives over her exercising of the first amendment on social media. [[Uniparty]] [[Globalist]] [[Mitch McConnell]] smeared her as a "cancer for the Republican Party and our country."<ref>Two references:

Rep. Greene is entertaining on the [[Telegram]] platform, where she has more than 160,000 subscribers as of March 2022.

==Congressional Record==
Rep. Greene was among Republicans who [[Objectors to Biden Electors|challenged the legitimacy]] of the [[2020 Presidential election]] due to widespread [[Biden Putsch|electoral fraud]] and on her first day in 117th Congress she courageously wore a "Trump Won" [[Chinese Virus]] face mask.<ref>[https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/marjorie-taylor-green-congress-qanon-1119742/ Is Marjorie Taylor Greene Becoming the New Face of QAnon?].

In January 2021, she introduced articles of [[impeachment]] against acting [[Biden junta|junta]] leader [[Joe Biden]].<ref>[https://thehill.com/homenews/house/535317-rep-marjorie-taylor-greene-files-articles-of-impeachment-against-biden Rep.

She has occasionally stood up to Speaker of the [[United States House of Representatives]] [[Nancy Pelosi]]. The following months, she introduced more articles of impeachment against Joe Biden, including leaving behind thousands of Americans in Afghanistan <ref>https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-resolution/598/text</ref>, endangering national security by ripping the Southern Border wide open <ref>https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-resolution/597/text</ref>, and for usurping Congress on the COVID-19 eviction moratorium <ref>https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-resolution/596/text</ref>.

Greene said of the $40 billion aid package to the [[corrupt]] Ukrainian regime in May 2022, "They want to get $40 billion to [[Ukraine]] and you have these $40 billion on top of the money that have already been given...That brings it to $53 billion...That is over two thirds of the [[State Department]]’s entire budget for the year...US officials are doing this to eventually fund the [[NGO]]s operated by their families and friends...It is basically like [[money laundering]] schemes...Our government is completely corrupt, and I don’t say that lightly...It is a serious problem, and my eyes have been open to it actually, serving in Congress."<ref>https://americanfaith.com/us-aid-to-ukraine-looks-like-money-laundering-scheme-congresswoman/</ref>

[[Image:Jim Banks of IN.jpg|250px|right|thumb|Representative Jim Banks of Indiana is known for his fight against election fraud.]]

'''James Edward “Jim” Banks''' (born July 16, 1979) is a [[Republican Party|Republican]] [[U.S. Representative]] from [[Indiana]] and the current chairman of the House Republican Study Committee.

On January 15, 2021, Representative Banks introduced the Save Democracy Act, which is designed to reduce [[electoral fraud]] by requiring the following in federal elections:

*no ballot harvesting
*voter citizenship verification
*no automatic voter registration
*no mailing of unrequested absentee ballots
*voter ID for in-person voting
*no allowance of ballots received after [[Election Day]]
*ballot counting must continue uninterrupted until completion, and other protections for counting votes

Banks is known to have a hawkish track record like when he voted to restrict Trump's withdrawal from Afghanistan <ref>https://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes/116-2020/h152</ref>

Some argue that on November 30, 2021, Banks exposed himself as a RINO when he voted in favor of H.R.550, which would provide grants to state vaccination databases to help them meet "federal standards".[https://clerk.house.gov/Votes/2021388][https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/550?r=6&s=1] The bill gives the Secretary of Health and Human Services the right to unilaterally impose such "federal standards", with priority given to standards developed by "consensus-based organizations."[https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/550/text/eh?r=6] This in turn can potentially be used to justify both future corruption within and future abuses of power by the Department in relations to vaccinations, and perhaps even serve as a framework for the creation of a ''federal'' vaccination database. However, the bill is not a database.

'''Elise Marie Stefanik''' (born July 2, 1984) is the representative from [[New York]]'s 21st Congressional District in the [[U.S. House]]. Stefanik was elected to the U.S. House in 2014. At age 30, she was the youngest woman ever elected to Congress at the time. Stefanik can be a pit bull in taking down the [[Left]], which many other [[Republican]] congressmen are unable or unwilling to do. She refers to the [[Opposition to Donald Trump|Never-Trumper]] [[Liz Cheney]] as a "[[Pelosi]] pawn."

On October 4, 2021, Rep. Stefanik called for the firing of the [[vaccine police|vaccine tyrant]] [[Anthony Fauci]]: "‘Fire Fauci’ to Save [[Christmas]]."<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/10/04/elise-stefanik-fire-fauci-save-christmas/</ref>

Stefanik serves on the [[House Intelligence Committee]]. She succeeded the disgraced [[Liz Cheney]] as chair of the House Republican Conference in May 2021, being the first from North Country to do so since the leadership of [[Bertrand Snell]] in the 1930s.<ref>Editorial (May 6, 2021).

==U.S. House of Representatives==
===Comey===
Stefanik exposed the [[Deep State coup]] against [[President Donald Trump]] when she inveigled disgraced [[FBI]] director [[James Comey]] to admit under oath that he failed to inform the [[Gang of Eight]] as required. Her questioning exposed the [[Obama administration]]'s illegal political spying and continued [[FISA abuse]] after President Trump took office.<ref>STEFANIK: So if that's quarterly... 

COMEY: ... to brief them before Congress is briefed. 

STEFANIK: So it's quarterly for all three then, senior congressional leadership, the White House, and the [[DNI]]? 

COMEY: I think that's right. Now that's by practice not by rule or by written policy which is why, thanks to the chair and ranking giving us feedback, we're trying to tweak it in certain ways. 

STEFANIK: So since, in your opening statement, you confirmed that there is a counter-intelligence investigation currently open and you also referenced that it started in July. When did you notify the DNI, the White House, or senior congressional leadership? 

COMEY: It's a good question. Congressional leadership, some time recently. They were briefed on the nature of the investigation in some detail as I said. Obviously the Department of Justice has been aware of it all along. The DNI, I don't know what the DNI's knowledge of it was because we didn't have a DNI until Mr. Coats took office and I briefed him his first morning in office. 

STEFANIK: So just to drill down on this, if -- if the open investigation began in July and the briefing of congressional leadership only occurred recently, why was there no notification prior to the recent -- to the past month? 

COMEY: I think our decision was it was a matter of such sensitivity that we wouldn't include it in the quarterly briefings. 

STEFANIK: So when you state our decision is that your decision? Is that usually your decision what gets briefed in those quarterly updates? 

COMEY: No, it's usually the decision of the head of our counter- intelligence division. 

STEFANIK: And just again, to get the detailed -- on the record, why was the decision made not to brief senior congressional leadership until recently when the investigation had been open since July? A very serious investigation -- why was that decision to wait months? 

COMEY: Because of the sensitivity of the matter.

'''Paul Anthony Gosar''', born November 27, 1958 (age {{age|1958|11|27}}), is an [[America First]] [[Republican]] U.S. Representative from [[Arizona]]'s 4th congressional district. Gosar defeated incumbent [[Democrat]] [[Ann Kirkpatrick]] in the [[2010 Midterm Elections]] in Arizona's 1st district, and won again in the 4th district in 2012. He is a member of the Natural Resources Committee and the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. He is an ally and supporter of [[President Trump]], standing up against the [[2020 election fraud]], and has received Trump's endorsement. He holds strong conservative policies, and as such, is smeared as "far-right" by the establishment.

He has called for defunding [[NPR]] over their refusal to report on [[Hunter Biden]]'s corruption.<ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/2020-election/2020/10/25/rep-gosar-defund-npr-failing-report-news-hunter-biden-scandal/ Rep. Paul Gosar: Defund NPR for Failing to Report News About Hunter Biden Scandal]</ref>

Gosar received a D.D.S. from Creighton Boyne School of Dentistry and owned his own dentistry practice for 25 years.

==Controversy==
In early November 2021, Gosar tweeted an edited cartoon video of a scene from anime series ''Attack on Titan'', humorously edited to depict him attacking an image of Joe Biden and slaying an evil witch portrayed as [[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]]. This generated immense backlash from congressional Democrats and [[mainstream media]].<ref>Chamberlain, Samuel (November 9, 2021). [https://nypost.com/2021/11/09/call-for-action-against-rep-paul-gosar-after-anime-tweet-against-aoc-biden/ Calls grow for action against GOP Rep. Paul Gosar, who tweeted ‘sick’ anime video against AOC, Biden]. ''New York Post''. Retrieved November 9, 2021.</ref> The majority Democrat House used this as a flimsy excuse to censure him, in violation of Gosar's [[First Amendment]] rights.<ref>https://reason.com/2021/11/10/paul-gosar-aoc-anime-video-free-speech-nancy-pelosi/</ref> Gosar removed the video and responded to the censure vote in a statement given on the House floor, saying:
{{cquote|...I do not espouse violence towards anyone. I never have. It was not my purpose to make anyone upset. I voluntarily took the cartoon down, not because it was itself a threat, but because some thought it was. Out of compassion for those who generally felt offense, I self-censored. Last week my staff posted a video depicting a policy battle regarding amnesty for tens of millions of illegal aliens. This is an enemy that speaks to young voters who are too often overlooked. Even Twitter, the left's mouthpiece, did not remove the cartoon, noting it was in the public's interest for it to remain the cartoon directly contributes to the understanding and the discussion of the real-life battle resulting from this administration's open border policies
this body is considering passage of Mr. Biden's reckless socialist marxist $4.9 trillion spending bill that provides 100 billion dollars for amnesty to tens of millions of illegal aliens already in this country. This is what the left doesn't want the American people to know. Our country is suffering from the plague of illegal immigration. I don't stop pointing this out nor will I. Millions of illegal aliens drugs and human traffickers are being led in and moved around our country in the dead of night all condoned by this administration. For this cartoon, some in congress suggest i should be punished. I have said decisively there is no threat in the cartoon other than the threat that immigration poses to our country, and no threat was intended by my staff or me. The American people deserve to have their voices heard in congress. No matter how much the left tries to quiet me, I will continue to speak out against amnesty for illegal aliens, defend the rule of law and advance the American first agenda.
if i must join [[Alexander Hamilton]], the first person attempted to be censured by this house, so be it; it is done. Madame speaker, I yield back.
}}

Gosar later re-tweeted the same video minutes after the vote.<ref>[https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/nov/18/paul-gosar-retweets-video-aoc-twitter Paul Gosar retweets same video aimed at AOC after House censures him – report] ''The Guardian'' </ref>

Before getting elected to Congress, Boebert was a [[gun rights]] advocate. She challenged [[Beto O'Rourke]] at an Aurora town hall meeting during his 2020 presidential campaign, saying, "I was one of the gun-owning Americans who heard you speak regarding your 'Hell yes I'm going to take your AR-15s and AK-47s.

Gaetz stood strong against the [[Dem]]s' politicized indictment of [[Trump]], and properly criticized the weakness by Florida Gov.

He indicated in December 2020 that he would object on the [[House]] floor to the certification of [[Joe Biden]] based on [[Electoral fraud]] in the [[United States presidential election, 2020]].

Despite all of the above, Gaetz does have some liberal views on social issues. In 2015, while serving in the [[Florida]] state legislature, he sponsored a repeal on its ban on adoption by [[homosexual]]s,<ref>https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Documents/loaddoc.aspx?FileName=720277.docx&DocumentType=Amendments&BillNumber=7013&Session=2015</ref>.

In September of 2021, he voted with [[Democrats]] and [[RINOs]] to pass a red flag gun confiscation bill, leaving many conservatives outraged;<ref>https://welovetrump.com/2021/09/25/here-are-the-135-republicans-who-just-voted-for-red-flag-gun-confiscation/</ref><ref>https://americanfaith.com/read-the-names-135-republicans-vote-with-democrats-to-advance-red-flag-gun-confiscation-bill-as-part-of-ndaa/</ref> however, he expressed regret and successfully fought to remove them from the bill. Gaetz has otherwise remained strongly pro-Second Amendment.<ref>https://www.ontheissues.org/FL/Matt_Gaetz_Gun_Control.htm</ref> Gaetz also endorsed the idea to make President Donald J. Trump speaker of the House to reinstate the latter as the true, official and legitimate President and impeach and indict [[Joe Biden]] and [[Kamala Harris]] and other [[globalist]], [[leftist]]/[[liberal]]/[[Marxist|neo-Marxist]] and RINO criminals, conspirators, insurrectionists, parasites and traitors.<ref>https://newrepublic.com/article/164670/matt-gaetz-trump-speaker-2024</ref><ref>https://www.newsweek.com/matt-gaetz-trump-speaker-house-gorka-1681738</ref>

In early 2021, Gaetz was the victim of a false, baseless, malicious, and coordinated personal attack by the [[liberal media]].<ref>He was accused of taking a seventeen-year-old girl across state lines for sex, which prompted an FBI investigation. Gaetz denies these claims and has stated that they are the product of an extortion scheme targeting him and his father, former Florida State Senate President Don Gaetz https://www.businessinsider.com/matt-gaetz-sex-trafficking-extortion-investigation-explainer-timeline-2021-3. In the months prior to [[Donald Trump]]'s departure from office, Gaetz is alleged to have sought a pardon from the President, although both men have denied that such a request was ever made. https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-defends-matt-gaetz-denies-florida-congressman-asked-pardon-1581697 Meanwhile, leaked texts indicate the possibility of Israeli Embassy involvement in the alleged extortion scheme, which in turn was centered around efforts to raise money to get the now-deceased FBI agent Robert Levinson released from Iranian custody. All parties involved in the alleged scheme have denied that whatever they requested or demanded amounted to extortion; and the Israeli consulate employee involved in the scheme has claimed that he didn't know about the allegations against Gaetz until shortly before they were made public, in the process implying that he may not have been "kept entirely in the loop" about the situation. https://www.theamericanconservative.com/state-of-the-union/leaked-texts-from-israeli-consular-official-show-more-details-in-gaetz-levinson-funding-scheme/</ref> Gaetz's accusation of attempted extortion was later corroborated.<ref>https://www.dailywire.com/news/media-for-months-reported-on-matt-gaetz-investigation-without-evidence-gaetzs-claims-of-extortion-were-just-corroborated-however</ref>

'''Thomas Hawley “Tommy” Tuberville''' (born September 18, 1954, age {{age|1954|9|18}}) is one of Alabama's U.S. Senators. He unseated [[Democrat]] [[Doug Jones]] by a landslide. He was formerly the head football coach for [[Auburn University]] from 1998 to 2008.

==U.S. Senate campaign==

===Initial primary===
In the [[Republican]] primary held on March 3, 2020, Tuberville finished first place with 33.4% of the vote.<ref>[https://www.politico.com/2020-election/results/alabama/ 2020 Alabama primary results]</ref> Other candidates who ran included [[Jeff Sessions]], who finished second with 31.6%, and Rep. [[Bradley Byrne]], who came third with just under 25% of the vote. Under [[Alabama]] law, since no one won a majority of the votes in the primary, a runoff was be held for the top two candidates.

===Runoff===
The [[Republican]] primary runoff election was initially set to be held on March 31, 2020, though due to the [[coronavirus]] outbreak, [[Alabama]] governor [[Kay Ivey]] delayed it to July 14, 2020.<ref>[https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/gov-kay-ivey-delays-primary-runoff-election-until-july-14/ar-BB11muvd Gov.

Jones in the general election.

===Endorsements===
Tuberville's Senate bid was endorsed by [[Donald Trump]],<ref>[https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/10/trump-endorses-tommy-tuberville-over-jeff-sessions-in-alabama-senate-primary.html Trump endorses Tommy Tuberville, the ex-football coach facing Jeff Sessions in Alabama’s GOP Senate primary]</ref> who has held a strong disdain for [[Jeff Sessions]] over incompetence as [[attorney general]].

===Conservative criticisms===
Tuberville has blamed [[President Trump]] for veteran health care problems despite the [[Donald Trump achievements: Veterans|latter's accomplishments with such]].<ref>[https://dailycaller.com/2019/08/05/mooney-tuberville-trump-veterans/ Trump Can’t Get Our Vets Health Care, Republican Senate Candidate Tommy Tuberville Says. Challenger Arnold Mooney Says He’s ‘Dead Wrong’]</ref> The comment was strongly criticized by [[Republican]] then-candidate [[Arnold Mooney]], who called on Tuberville to apologize for disregarding the major accomplishments.

Tuberville has been criticized for arguably being less tough on [[immigration]] than his primary runoff opponent [[Jeff Sessions]].<ref>[https://www.alreporter.com/2020/02/20/opponents-accuse-tuberville-of-supporting-amnesty-for-undocumented-immigrants/ Opponents accuse Tuberville of supporting amnesty for undocumented immigrants]</ref>

[[Conservative]] commentator [[Michelle Malkin]] has called Tuberville “some empty suit” who will “parrot [[U.S. Chamber of Commerce]] talking points.”<ref>[https://yellowhammernews.com/dale-jackson-conservative-activist-michelle-malkin-backs-sessions-for-senate-calls-tuberville-an-empty-suit/ Dale Jackson: Conservative activist Michelle Malkin backs Sessions for Senate, calls Tuberville an ’empty suit’]</ref>

===General election results===

{{cquote|I am heading home...

Have we been helping get Americans out of Afghanistan, yes. Is the mission continuing, yes. Am I missing, no. Did I go dark for a little, yes because it wasn’t safe to be communicating. Am I extremely disappointed in how we (United States) left Americans behind… that would be an understatement. President Biden and his administration are absolutely lying to the American people about Americans and our friends being left behind.

So many great Americans, many who are veterans and many who are not, are stepping up to keep our promise….. We will never leave an American behind.}}

J.D. Vance

ChadUser:

'''James David Vance''' (born in August 2, 1984) is the [[Trump]]-endorsed underdog landslide winner of the [[U.S. Senate]] seat in [[Ohio]], far exceeding early predictions and routing his [[Liz Cheney]]-endorsed opponent in November 2022. An outspoken tech entrepreneur who was the best-selling author of the “Hillbilly Elegy,” JD Vance announced his candidacy amid many skeptics on June 29, 2021.<ref>James Arkin, [https://www.politico.com/news/2021/07/01/jd-vance-ohio-senate-primary-497754 J.D. Vance joins already chaotic Ohio Senate primary], ''Politico'', July 1, 2021.</ref> On April 16, 2022, Trump endorsed Vance in his Senate primary race against many opponents, thereby rejecting the pro-[[Establishment]], [[Mike Pence]]-endorsed candidate [[Josh Mandel]].

Vance has been the most courageous in opposing endless funding by the [[United States]] of the [[Russia-Ukraine war]].<ref>https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/politics/elections/war-ukraine-could-impact-ohio-us-senate-race-tim-ryan-jd-vance/95-a2c5759a-d2c4-4ccd-8dcb-e41ecb62fa3e</ref>

Vance's enormous 7-point margin of victory as a political newcomer solidifies [[Trump]]'s popularity in the all-important [[Midwest]], as Vance's opponent campaigned against Trump in this election.

Despite Vance's criticism of Trump way back in 2016, Trump graciously wrote:<ref>Haley Bemiller, [https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2022/04/19/ohio-senate-race-j-d-vance-questioned-trumps-likeness-hitler/7372220001/ Vance questioned whether Trump is like Hitler in 2016 message], ''Cincinnati.com'', April 20, 2022</ref>
<blockquote>"Like some others, J.D. Vance may have said some not-so-great things about me in the past, but he gets it now, and I have seen that in spades."</blockquote>
A [[conservative populism|conservative populist]] capable of winning a general election, J.D. Vance is a leader among Republican candidates in speaking out against increased entanglement by [[Biden]] of the [[United States]] in the [[Russia Ukraine conflict 2022|Russian Ukraine conflict]].
