This Week with GosarTop Stories – Washington, DCBorder Crisis Worsens—Full Scale InvasionThe Biden regime released new data this week showing nearly 235,000 illegal aliens storming across our southern border in April in an historic assault on our sovereignty.  To put this in perspective, in just one month, that’s nearly the entire population of Scottsdale, Arizona, which, according to the United States Census Bureau, stands at 241,361 law abiding people. This is an historic and record high - and an all-time low in security as well - from any previous point in American history.  To say that the Biden regime is incompetent is an understatement.  At this point this appears to be a deliberate policy to flood our country with illegal aliens, criminals, drugs, drug traffickers and sex traffickers.   You may ask why the democrats want this?  There are many theories, I will let you go through the options yourself.  More than 3.3 million illegal aliens have now crossed the southern border since Biden assumed office.  In all, at least 700,000 illegal aliens have been released into the United States.  This is an outrage and as soon as America First members of Congress take the majority, we will have to implement massive deportations and arrests. More that 1200 pounds of deadly fentanyl were seized along the southern border in April.  These drugs are killing our loved ones as drug poisoning reached record levels.Congress Wastes Millions More, Turns Back on MomsThere’s been a severe national shortage on baby formula that Joe Biden and his dilettante administrators have known about for seven months but ignored.  They created this problem and appear to not care less about it.  The shortage was caused by a formula recall of a nutrition formula plant dating back to last October.  The shortage is severe because many babies use formula during their early months.  Even though we are supposedly a prosperous nation, we have only one formula plant in the entire country.  That is a topic for another day.  Complicating matters, the Biden administration has banned import of formula from Europe, which apparently is of higher quality and better health benefits.  Remember this quote from Joe Biden last week in response to questions from a reporter if his administration could have moved more quickly?  “If we’d been better mind readers, I guess we could have.”  This man is a danger to America.  Such condescending arrogance.  And another lie.  The hard, cold truth is the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) told the Biden regime about the nutrition formula plant last October, yet Biden did absolutely nothing.  In fact, Health and Human Services Secretary Bacerra was asked on CNN this week if the Biden administration was aware of the formula shortage.  His response?  “The FDA has kept me apprised of this from last year.”  The pattern is clear.  Whether it is flooding our country with illegal aliens and crime or withholding baby formula, this regime is harming Americans and American babies.  So this week, Congress does what it normally does: it threw millions of taxpayer money at a problem that has absolutely zero to do with the lack of money.   Congress this week voted on H.R. 7790, the so-called “Infant Formula Supplemental Appropriation Act” and H.R. 7791, the “Access to Baby Formula Act.”   I voted against both bills and let me explain why. First, let’s start with the basics.  The names on these bills are flat out lies.  It is a common democrat propaganda technique to put flowery, nice sounding names on bills that have nothing to do with the name.   This allows them and use the media to lie about what is really in the bill.  Nothing in either of these bills buys, supports or creates baby formula.  If it did, I would have easily supported them.  For example, H.R. 7791 merely provides $28 million to the FDA, a large government bureaucracy.  Does it let that agency manufacture or buy baby formula?  Absolutely not.  It is for salary raises, benefits and lining the pockets of bureaucrats.  I could not support this wasteful spending.  Throwing more money at the FDA does not create baby formula.  Bottom line: There is not enough baby formula because the FDA shut down the only plant making it in the United States and failed to get it back to operating despite knowing about the shortage for seven months. The other bill, H.R. 7790 allows mothers on welfare to use more of their welfare benefits on baby formula.  But this also does not create or make baby formula.   With a shortage, the mothers on welfare will not be able buy formula BECAUSE SHELVES ARE EMPTY.  Formula does not exist!  Maybe Congress should have voted to given them magic wands to create baby formula because that is really what this bill is akin to.  Joe Biden’s FDA shutting down of a major baby formula producer in February when they knew baby formula was already in short supply was a terrible idea and typical of this inept administration.   Even CNN’s Jake Tapper noted: “This is hardly the first time that there’s this slow-rolling, anticipated disaster happening exactly as forewarned.”Baby Formula for Illegal Aliens—Not Real AmericansBy now you might be asking, where is all the available baby formula that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has?  The incompetent and America Last Biden regime decided to give our FEMA baby formula to illegal aliens, not Americans.  You heard that right.  Today illegal aliens along the southern border get all the baby formula they need, for free, while American babies and mothers suffer.  This is criminal. Instead of useless virtue signaling votes, Congress and the administration should provide real solutions.  I voted no because these lame bills do nothing to help American families.  I stand against starving our babies to feed illegal aliens.  I will not vote for bills that may sound nice, but just fund bureaucrats while Americans suffer.  Enough of this nonsense. Biden Bends to the World Health Organization - Sovereignty at RiskThis weekend, the World Health Organization (WHO) will meet in Switzerland for its annual World Health Assembly.  Countries will vote on the International Pandemic Treaty that will give the WHO power over sovereign nations with regards to pandemic responses. Rightfully so, I’ve been getting a ton of letters from concerned constituents regarding this meeting, so I wanted to spend some time discussing it. Sadly, in going along to get along, the Biden administration submitted changes to the WHO emergency response regulations that could give the WHO more power including declaring worldwide health emergencies at will, mandating sovereign countries to lockdown and requiring vaccine and passport mandates.The WHO embarrassed itself in the wake of COVID-19. They cozied up to China and shielded China’s lie that COVID-19 was a myth while the virus continued to spread.  Why, you may ask?  Because the current leader of the WHO was backed by China.  If the WHO had taken the virus seriously earlier, lives could have been saved.  Candidly, I do not think the United States should contribute a dime to its budget.  President Trump didn’t either, that’s why he withdrew the United States from the WHO.  Biden, always quick to surrender our sovereignty, put us back in it.   I reject all types of international law, including those promulgated by the WHO. The United States is a sovereign nation whose citizens must decide for themselves the laws that bind them, not some international treaty.Any bill that comes before Congress that shifts power from American citizens to unelected globalist foreigners is one that is dead on arrival for me.  Moreover, the United States alone should have the power to declare state of emergencies, not an incompetent international body.  In fact, I introduced a bill that passed the Senate that would end the national COVID-19 emergency that the Biden administration refuses to terminate, despite much of the country reopening and moving on.  The pandemic should no longer be used as an excuse to seize unlawful and unnecessary executive power.FDA Head Pushes Disinformation - Says Disinformation the "Leading Cause of Death" in AmericaLast week, the head of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Dr. Robert Califf, publicly lied to Americans and single-handedly engaged in massive disinformation.  Ironically, his claim was that "misinformation is now the leading cause of death" in the United States. That's pretty rich.  What is the truth?What is missing from this chart is "disinformation."  The Biden regime has been spewing a constant stream of disinformation about inflation, COVID-19, gasoline prices, Russia, and so much more.  Now they are lying about the nation's health issues.  They have no shame.  Gosar Backs the BlueEarlier this week, I had the opportunity to stop by the Lake Havasu City Police Department and meet with Chief Doyle and many of the fine law enforcement officers who protect us and keep our communities safe.  It was a fitting visit because last week was National Police Week.  Violent crime is raging across our nation and our brave law enforcement officers have come under attack by those on the Left who dangerously and wrongly suggest defunding the police is the answer.  This anti-police rhetoric is reckless! It disgusts me that our law enforcement officials, who put their lives on the line every day, are literally being ambushed by violent criminals emboldened by rhetoric from the Left.  Did you know that shootings of police officers have increased nearly 40% from one year ago?  346 police officers were shot in 2021. 123 officers have been shot just THIS YEAR.  These statistics are staggering and troubling. As long as I am in Congress, I will always fight to invest in our nation’s law enforcement. Thank you, Chief Doyle for the opportunity to spend some time with you and your amazing officers.Tweet of the WeekPhoto of the Week:This wonderful photo of a tractor was taken by Christopher Boles from Prescott Valley.Thank you, Christopher.  What a beautiful picture!Now, who is next!?Do you have photography skills? Do you want the chance for your photograph to be featured as our "Picture of the Week?"  If so, send your best shots of our great State to wade.searle@mail.house.gov.
