Page 1 of 3

Date Title
07/19/2022 Tweet - "This racist, sexist behavior from Democrat Rep. Vicente Gonzalez is disgusting. He owes Rep. Mayra Flores an apology, and every other Democrat in Congress--including Speaker Pelosi--should condemn his conduct."
05/03/2022 Tweet - "Yesterday's unprecedented leak is an attempt to severely damage the Supreme Court. This clearly coordinated campaign to intimidate and obstruct the Justices from upholding the Constitution must be immediately investigated. Full statement from @SteveScalise , @RepStefanik , & me:"
12/10/2021 Tweet - "Today is Human Rights Day. Would've been a perfect day to send a bill over to the Senate to hold the world's largest human rights abuser accountable for slave labor."
07/16/2021 Tweet - "President Biden's White House is teaming up with Big Tech to censor speech. It's wrong & contrary to your 1st Amendment rights. The American people deserve to know--how much are taxpayers paying for Biden to monitor their personal social media accounts & suppress their voices?"
06/29/2021 Replacement of Bust of Roger Brooke Taney with Bust of Thurgood Marshall
06/17/2021 Tweet - "It's no secret a lot of manufacturing takes place in China. It's also no secret that the Chinese Communist Party is engaging in forced labor of Uyghurs. Why are Democrats turning a blind eye to these atrocities?"
06/16/2021 Tweet - "No American company should be involved with any product or service that relies on forced labor--in China or anywhere else. Republicans just acted to apply sanctions to those who fail this basic human rights test. Democrats have a chance to join us or keep looking the other way."
06/04/2021 The Chinese Communist Party Can't Cover Up the Truth
04/22/2021 Tweet - "The Democrats' D.C. statehood scheme is about two things: consolidating power and enacting radical policies. The American people see right through this blatant power grab."
04/22/2021 Democrats Want to Control, Republicans Want to Govern
04/12/2021 Tweet - "Over the weekend, the Supreme Court ruled once again to uphold Californians' religious freedoms. The discrimination of at-home religious gatherings in California, while other services and entities congregate with less restrictions, is unacceptable."
02/24/2021 Tweet - "I'm headed to the House floor now to defend the First Amendment against censorship from Democrats. They are reading from the same script used in countries like China to silence speech they disagree with. Tune in here:"
02/24/2021 Tweet - "The greatest threat to free speech today is not a law from Congress, which is bound by the First Amendment. The greatest threat is politicians who bully private companies to silence dissenting views."
02/24/2021 Governing Requires Compromise
09/16/2020 Tweet - "Republicans will RESTORE our way of life by Arrow pointing rightwards then curving downwards (Special Character) Defeating the virus and keeping America healthy (Special Character) Supporting our police and keeping communities safe (Special Character) Preserving our freedoms under the Constitution This is our #CommitmentToAmerica."
08/23/2020 Fox News "Sunday Morning Features" - Transcript Interview with Tim Scott and Kevin McCarthy
07/25/2020 Tweet - "The Supreme just ruled against religious freedom. If casinos can open up, churches should be able to do the same--a total double standard. Justice Gorsuch is 100% right: "There is no world in which the Constitution permits Nevada to favor Caesars Palace over Calvary Chapel.""
06/04/2020 Tweet - "As a nation, we have to say no more. No more racial discrimination. No more looting. No more senseless violence. In order to honor George Floyd, this moment must be about who we are--and who we hope to be--as Americans."
06/04/2020 Our Nation Needs to Come Together and Heal
06/01/2020 Tweet - "George Floyd and his family deserve justice. Peaceful protestors deserve to be seen and heard. Looters, rioters, and anarchists deserve consequences. I support the President in restoring law and order. Keep America safe!"
05/29/2020 Tweet - "When an American is wrongfully killed, we expect justice to come swiftly. The arrest and charges against the officer who killed George Floyd is the right first step in providing that due justice."
05/29/2020 Tweet - "George Floyd should still be alive today. We can honor his memory by healing our broken communities. By mending racial divides. And by rebuilding America into a more perfect union that we know it should be. Ripping a city--and a country--apart only deepens the wound."
05/27/2020 Tweet - "The Constitution of the United States spells it out many times.; Congress must physically assemble and hold a quorum in order to conduct the People's business. Democrats' proxy voting scheme is unconstitutional."
05/26/2020 McCarthy Statement on Lawsuit Against Proxy Voting
11/22/2019 Tweet - "Restricting certain political and issue ads from platforms that large pockets of the country use to stay up to date--I fear it's part of a grander plan from some on the left to limit the info people receive and incubate groupthink."
