Rep. Randy Weber: "The fires in Paris should be a warning to Western Civilization. If America doesn’t turn the socialist ship around & reject the woke, America-hating culture that comes with it, we’ll soon find ourselves in the same boat as France."

Rep. Lloyd Doggett: "Despite the lack of evidence of Russian inference or other foreign involvement in the U.S. election, Trump and his GOP enablers continue to spread baseless claims of voter fraud while simultaneously dismantling the infrastructure that keeps our elections secure."
