Rep. Roy: "It is absolutely offensive to the people that we represent that the Senate would send over a bill that doesn't fund Border Patrol and the core components of ICE. Could the Senate be any more lazy than to send to us a bill that doesn't do the job and then leave town? So we're going to stand up and say NO to that. We're going to send back a bill that's responsible to the American people."

Hello Senator Thune, At 3 AM on Friday, March 27th, in a near-empty chamber, you passed a bill by voice vote that excludes all funding for ICE and CBP. Let me repeat that: voice vote. No roll call. No record of who was there. No accountability. Just you, Barrasso, and a handful of senators shuffling paper in the dead of night while America slept. You could have demanded a recorded vote. You chose not to. You could have held the line for five more days until the House returned. You chose not to. You could have used the same procedural tools Democrats have used against you for 40 days. You chose not to. Instead, you gave Chuck Schumer exactly what he asked for, DHS funding minus immigration enforcement, and called it a win. Then you walked to the cameras and blamed the Democrats. Let's be precise about what you did: 1. You caved to a demand Democrats made on Day 1 of this shutdown. Forty-one days of supposed hardball negotiation, and you settled for their opening offer. 2. You handed them a template. The next time Democrats want to defund any agency — ICE, CBP, or anything else — they now know: just shut down DHS and wait. John Thune will fold at 3 AM. 3. You punted to reconciliation. "Good possibility," you said. Not "we will." Not "guaranteed." Just maybe. Meanwhile, ICE operates on fumes from last year's bill with no certainty of future funding. The precedent you set: You have argued for months that the filibuster is sacrosanct. That the 60-vote threshold protects minority rights. That we cannot bend Senate rules for policy wins. But at 3 AM on Friday, you bent every norm that actually mattered: • Voice vote to avoid accountability • Empty chamber to avoid debate • Midnight deal to avoid scrutiny • Immediate recess to avoid questions You'll bend the rules to avoid a fight. You just won't bend them to win one. What you've actually accomplished: Democrats demanded ICE restrictions. They got ICE defunded. Not reformed. Not restrained. Defunded. And you're out here tweeting about how Democrats are the "Defund the Police" party while you just voted to defund border enforcement at 3 in the morning. The question you should answer: Why did this deal have to happen at 3 AM? Why couldn't it happen at 3 PM, with cameras rolling and every senator on record? You know why. Because you didn't want your voters to see what surrender looks like. Here's my message: We saw it anyway. Stop hiding behind "Democrat obstruction." You're the Majority Leader. You set the schedule. You control the floor. You chose this outcome. Own it.

@SenateGOP We don't care! Pass the SAVE ACT!

During the past 41 days, Senate Democrats showed America who they’re fighting for. 480+ TSA agents quit, the U.S. suffered over $2.5 billion in losses, and there were four-hour-long lines at our busiest airports. All to protect criminal illegal aliens from deportation.

ELECTION INTEGRITY: Minnesota began issuing drivers licenses with automatic voter registration to thousands of Somali noncitizens and illegal aliens in 2023. As a result, the DOJ has issued a federal grand jury subpoena to Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon's office to determine how many noncitizen are on its voter rolls.

@LeaderJohnThune Failure theater. You are a disgrace

Voter ID is common sense, and the majority of Americans support it. This afternoon, Democrats will have the chance to show the American people which side they are on.

@GovKathyHochul @NYSLabor The gender pay gap is one cent on the dollar. There is a gender earnings gap. Different thing entirely.

As the nation recognizes #EqualPayDay, we’re seeing signs of progress here in New York. According to a new report from @NYSLabor, New York State now has the smallest gender wage gap in the nation. It’s not complicated: Everyone deserves equal pay for equal work.

@NBCNews Illegal aliens aren't immigrants

Growth rates in U.S. metro areas dropped the steepest in communities along the U.S.-Mexico border last year because of declines in immigrants, according to new population estimates by the U.S. Census Bureau. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/g…

@PWestoff Denaturalize and deport the families.

"We will chop off their heads." "We will lead the army of Allah." "We will subject them to eternal torture." These are Muslim children in an AMERICAN school in Philadelphia! The Western world needs to understand Islam before it is too late.

@NYCMayor End all rent controls.

Who decides whether or not stabilized rents are raised? Meet the Rent Guidelines Board. Here's what you should know about the board and how to make your voice heard.

@BarbMcQuade You're a grotesque water carrying Statist hack.

Disgusting.

In 2025, the United States had negative net immigration for the first time in 50 years… They don't teach that from 1924-1970 we had negative net migration for half a century. Yet, America saw unprecedented success and the middle class thrived.

@Noahpinion The fruits of the multiculturalism

This might be the most horrifying headline I've ever read

Here in Philadelphia. Truly appalling. These assholes chanting for the death of our servicemembers. Where’s the Dem outrage and condemnation?

@NBCNews excellent.

People seeking a host of professional licenses in Texas will soon have to prove they are in the country legally after the state's Commission of Licensing and Regulation adopted a new rule that could affect thousands of workers. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/t…

Stephen Colbert, famous devotee to J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle Earth, is co-writing a “Lord of the Rings” movie with his son. Warner Bros. announced early Wednesday that Colbert will script “The Lord of the Rings: Shadow of the Past” along with series veteran Philippa Boyens and Peter McGee, Colbert's son. abcnews.visitlink.me/06CoxN

AOC was a bartender. Gavin Newsom was a trust fund kid who opened a wine shop with his rich friends. Obama was a professional activist who didn’t even finish a full senate term. Bernie Sanders and Zohran Mamdani never held a job in either of their lives. The list goes on. Leftists love to mock people on the right who’ve worked blue collar backgrounds while electing the most incompetent and out of touch people who ever lived.

@LeaderJohnThune Resign and let someone do the job you are too cowardly to do.

Democrats are going to have another chance tomorrow to support election integrity by implementing a commonsense photo ID requirement. Will they stand with Americans? Or will they continue to oppose any meaningful ID requirement at the polls?

@LeaderJohnThune We don't care about the Democrats. You are a traitor.
