Proudly serving North Carolina's 13th Congressional District

Even a liberal judge found Sanctuary DA Steve Descano’s handling of a case inexplicably weak and rejected a sweetheart plea deal he designed. How did he respond? By dismissing all charges and freeing an illegal alien pedophile onto the streets. He would rather go to bat for illegal alien pedophiles than protect American children. Disgusting.

🇺🇸🇺🇸 GREAT work @USAO_EDNC! The great work of law enforcement and prosecutors (who actually prosecute) makes all of North Carolina safer. Thank you and keep it up!
Five Arrested, Federally Charged in Gun Running Scheme from NC to DC 👍🇺🇸⚖️🤛🦈 “When bad guys buy guns here and ship them up to our nation’s beautiful capital to foment unrest and mayhem, they threaten the safety of families and communities who live there, along with all of the eager citizens, families and kids, who save up to make the trip and visit the patriotic history and grandeur.” said U.S. Attorney Ellis Boyle. “Working with ATF and our law enforcement partners, we will continue to aggressively investigate these schemes and prosecute those who violate federal law. If you are making sham purchases to illegally run guns in Eastern North Carolina, we will find you and prosecute you.” Read more at: justice.gov/usao-ednc/pr/fiv… Press Conference: youtube.com/live/mRcGCbd2il8…

As I stated to Steve Descano in person, he abandons victims of horrible, life-altering crimes to solidify his standing with the Democratic Party. When prosecutors refuse to work with the men and women in law enforcement to protect Americans, victims are left without protection in their own country. That should be uniformly unacceptable. For sanctuary Democrats, it’s a price worth paying for their open border agenda. In Descano’s case, he chose illegal immigrant criminals who irreparably wounded Americans over fulfilling the duties entrusted to him. As a former prosecutor, I am at a loss for words and heartbroken for the men, women, and children who have been beaten, raped, kidnapped, molested, and stolen from without penalty, solely because their prosecutor is a political sycophant.
NEW: The House Judiciary Committee has just released the results of its investigation into sanctuary policies in Fairfax County, VA via an interim staff report that makes the following conclusions: - Fairfax County, VA ignored at least 1,670 ICE detainers between 2023-2025, releasing criminal illegal aliens back into the community instead. -Fairfax County Commonwealth Attorney Steve Descano treats illegal alien defendants differently than similarly situated American citizens, and he refused to prosecute or significantly reduced charges for criminal illegal aliens in order to shield them from deportation/immigration consequences. - The committee says in a preliminary review of more than 1,100 criminal cases, they’ve identified more than 100 previously unreported criminal aliens who benefited from Descano’s prosecutorial choices, which includes Descano’s decision to almost never pursue certain cases against illegal aliens, including DUIs, felony drug possession, felony grand larceny, shoplifting, fraud, trespassing, destruction of property, and assault of a law enforcement officer. - The committee lists some examples of the criminal aliens they say Descano shielded with his policies in the cases he did prosecute, including an illegal alien charged w/ felony child rape/carnal knowledge of a child who had his charges dropped to misdemeanor “consensual sex with a child” and he was offered a 90 day suspended jail sentence. - The committee says Descano dropped more than 50 charges against a serial fraudster from China and allowed multiple illegal aliens charged w/ malicious wounding, strangulation, and assault and battery to “escape accountability and reoffend.” - The committee alleges that Descano misled Congress by telling them one thing during his Congressional testimony, but telling them another in a private letter after that testimony. Per the report, Descano said during his May 2026 testimony before the committee that his policies are meant to shield green card holders/legal immigrants from deportation, but in a subsequent letter to the committee in September 2026, Descano admitted that his policies may also shield illegal immigrants from deportation. @FoxNews write up on the report: foxnews.com/politics/virgini…

Interesting. You know what is absent in Japan? An open border.
Tokyo is really cool.

Here’s a reminder of how insane Europe’s immigration policy is: In the U.K., an official pamphlet was issued to arriving immigrants and asylum seekers instructing them that rape is not acceptable. bbc.com/news/articles/ceqe3y…

This is a tragedy for France, but how can anyone be surprised? Open borders and unchecked welfare will destroy any country in which they are tried.
A 143-year-old French landmark is destroyed after rioters set it ablaze, causing its roof to collapse into the floors below. Local officials say two-thirds of the Limoges Town Hall is gone as violent anti-government agitators torched the building's exterior, in what the officials called a "catastrophe for heritage." The violence comes as more than half a million demonstrators took to the streets nationwide, over the soaring cost of living enter their fourth week across France. Authorities have reported roughly 400 arrests. And the unrest is spreading beyond Limoges. See which other government buildings rioters targeted: foxnews.com/world/limoges-to…

🚨SHOCKING PROOF:🚨 The Biden Justice Department’s Weaponizer in Chief Jack Smith obtained personal information of 639 THOUSAND Americans — Republican donors, voters, and supporters dating back to 2005. People who donated just $1. Even before President Trump ever entered politics. Democrats weaponize the government against ANY AMERICAN who disagrees with them.

This is what enters the country and lands in American neighborhoods under the “compassionate” policies of open borders and sanctuary jurisdictions.
NEW: A traffic stop in Lincoln County, NV led to the arrest of a Mexican illegal alien who was found in possession of more than 700 lbs of fentanyl & meth, per DOJ, which is now charging him. Feds say he had 14 kilos of fentanyl, which is approx 7 million lethal doses, and 677 lbs of meth with a street value of more than $2 million. DOJ release: justice.gov/usao-nv/pr/man-a…

For far too long, fraudsters treated taxpayer dollars like their personal ATM, siphoning off billions meant for our most vulnerable while the Democrats in charge looked the other way. The Republican Study Committee has been leading the fight against fraud since Day 1, and we are proud to stand alongside @WHFraudTF as some of the first in Congress to sign @VP Vance’s pledge. Together, we will stop fraudulent payments before they leave the door, and every person who exploited the system will answer for their crimes.

Isn’t this amazing? A North Carolina school board censors a concerned pastor in real time from reading explicitly gruesome material those same officials put in elementary school libraries!
🚨 A LAWSUIT IS COMING!!! The Iredell-Statesville School District has a BIG problem. I was censored by the board chair for reading from Push by Ramona Lofton. Then POLICE were brought in to intimidate me and force me away from the podium. Let me get this straight: THE BOOK STAYS. THE PREACHER GETS SILENCED. An allegedly inappropriate book remains in Lake Norman High School, but a preacher exercising his right to speak gets shut down?

As Americans, we must end the gross tolerance for theft by fraudsters and the bureaucrats who enable them. Fighting fraud has been one of my top priorities in Congress, and I remain committed to rooting it out of wherever it hides. I proudly signed @VP Vance’s pledge today to continue our fight to ensure benefits go ONLY to American citizens and NOT to illegal aliens or fraudsters enriching themselves through theft. It’s wrong, unaffordable, and unsustainable. I am all in to protect your hard-earned dollars from being wasted.

I’m still waiting for the Democrats to explain how this helps affordability.
Birthright citizenship for immigrants’ children is costing American taxpayers $150.7 billion every year, per JTN.

This is an outrageous abuse. Every citizen who was illegally spied on should be notified immediately by the Department of Justice.
Thru my oversight I’ve uncovered Jack Smith & the Biden DOJ targeted Americans for the simple act of buying a MAGA hat Jack Smith had an enemies list and at least 639,000 innocent Americans were on it INDEFENSIBLE

“Medicare for All” is a lie aimed at securing political power, not healthcare. The program decreases access, diminishes quality and drastically increases taxes on everyone. The conservative estimate: $47.4 trillion. Go to the DMV and see if that’s how you want your doctor’s office run. atr.org/medicare-for-all-wou…

Crime against women has surged in New York under Letitia James. Over the same period, Letitia James has proudly been a sanctuary force for illegal aliens, forbidding any cooperation with ICE from local and state law enforcement. Political prosecutors on the left are more devoted to far left, open border policies than protecting Americans. It is a disgrace.
Letitia James has failed New York’s women.

Another consequence of mass migration: mainstreaming failing socialism and blatant, embedded antisemitism.
This day is profoundly painful for so many New Yorkers. It marks three years since the horrific war crimes of October 7. On that day, Hamas killed more than 1,100 Israelis and abducted 251 others. We grieve alongside our many friends and neighbors who still carry that unthinkable loss. The suffering did not begin nor end that day. It instead continued through the Israeli government’s devastating, ongoing genocide in Gaza, in which it has killed more than 74,000 Palestinians—including more than 21,000 children. Even since the so-called ceasefire, more than 1,400 Palestinians have been killed. That suffering has intensified with every Israeli bomb dropped on ambulances waiting outside hospitals, every drone strike targeting a residential building or journalist, and every shipment of food aid turned away at a border crossing. Many New Yorkers are reckoning with this unbearable grief, and we mourn alongside them – all while knowing that our tax dollars fund these war crimes. Three years later, we must refuse to accept a world in which occupation and apartheid continue, where war crimes are met with impunity, and our federal government continues its complicity with every arms shipment. To honor the dead, we must fight for a world in which every person can live with freedom, safety, and dignity.

Navigating the world is a lot easier when you keep dangerous people - like ISIS sympathizers - from entering the country.
Grateful for the swift and professional action to keep Minnesotans safe. This is exactly the kind of threat we need federal law enforcement working to prevent, and the kind of work that should remain a priority as we navigate a more dangerous world.
